Actual footage of me looking at all the pictures of things with paws posted by my 4270/5330 students 🥺

[Sara Blankenship @UNT_ProfB]

@luna_bane @JaxFellows Hmmm. I’m kinda curious about the pixelation around the caption that others have pointed out? Maybe Jax wants to take a road trip with me to Tyler to grab a paper and verify. We could film it Thelma and Louise style! 🤪

Students! Are you in my 5W2
course (4240/5150)? Need the books? @Voertmans, @BNatUNT, and that one huge online retailer with the 2-day shipping all have the two required books in stock. Both are very affordable, pinky swear.

@amalini53 @MSNBC Safetty!

[Sara Blankenship @UNT_ProfB]

If you are one of my current or former students and you're graduating this semester, please email me ASAP! I have an idea.

If you think my jokes are bad on Canvas, this is apparently what it’s like living with me. 😐 #thesedogsaintloyal #quarantinedayidk #sendhelp

@jamieson @HuffPost The company’s stance that they are essential is odd considering SO many drop-off points for supplies are refusing homemade masks and other DIY PPE.

While the world paints “young people” as ignorant, defiant party animals, I have an inbox full of them trying to complete coursework while being forced out of their dorms, losing their jobs, and dealing w/ the unthinkable. Sooo maybe we should reconsider that narrative. #GMG

[Sara Blankenship @UNT_ProfB]

@embopriscilla Which class and which wording? Please email me with questions about course work!

[Sara Blankenship @UNT_ProfB]

@KirbyCreate_DDP Makes sense. I’m a 90s kid and I completely missed the Space Jam memo, which is really disappointing. But if The Brave Little Toaster needs discussing, I’m all over that.

[Sara Blankenship @UNT_ProfB]

Contagion and Outbreak I get, but why is Space Jam trending on Netflix? 🧐

[Sara Blankenship @UNT_ProfB]

A short letter to all my students in regard to all the changes taking place in response to COVID-19. I mean every word, so please reach out and let me know how I can help you.

[Sara Blankenship @UNT_ProfB]

I don’t want to brag or anything but I’ve been screwing that up for YEARS. 🤷🏻‍♀️🦠

[Nikki Insana @NikkiInsana]

You’re telling me my professor who can’t stop the YouTube autoplayer from playing the next video is going to teach classes online? This should be good.

[Sara Blankenship @UNT_ProfB]

Somewhat media-related?

Love is Blind. I can’t with this show, y’all. You can’t get engaged to someone after playing telephone with them for five days.

Amazon Wardobe gives you seven days. If I need to think about this denim jacket for a week, y’all can’t get engaged. Nope.

It’s so meaningful that brilliant female athletes like Diana Taurasi and Sabrina Ionescu are getting this opportunity to discuss their relationship with Kobe. People need to see his support of female athletes went beyond just having a daughter. #ForKobeAndGigi

[Sara Blankenship @UNT_ProfB]

Interesting read for you journo majors!

@korbenbros I want to meet him just so I can say this. 😆

[Sara Blankenship @UNT_ProfB]

This is absolutely journalism content don’t @ me.

[Holly Rowe @sportsiren]

Devastated. ⁦@kobebryant⁩ was always great with me. His support of women’s sports & those of us that cover them was unwavering. The last thing he said to me was, “If you ever need anything, I got you.” Grateful for his gracious spirit. ❤️ is breaking for his family #Kobe
