The support for Maine and the Twin Cities has been amazing ... a great message from @RobGronkowski this afternoon about tonight's game!
Thanks for thinking of us during these difficult times. I think I might pass on the Gronk spikes tonight though😉
thinking how today I was afraid to wear a BBYO shirt to work bc it had a menorah logo. Then I thought, if it was Hanukkah & I wore an “ugly menorah sweater” it would be fine. it’s normalized into our culture. waiting for my school to speak up on these horrific times#PrayForPeace
I can’t count how many times I was lectured about microaggressions at Harvard. Those same people are now on their timelines glorifying Hamas for deadly, inhumane, terroristic aggression. The double standard is baffling.
The silence of schools and professional work organizations is LOUD. You can feel sadness and hurt for ALL people suffering on both sides. But do not support terrorists. But if you wanted to fact check, JEWS are indigenous to #Israel. Your silence is loud.
Teachers don't need to work 60+ hours a week, spend weekends grading/planning, or say yes to everything they're asked to do to be considered PASSIONATE about their job. That's burnout, not passion.
To follow up - sick time should never have to be the difference of a paid or unpaid FMLA. New teachers are struggling! @massteacher we voted to tax the millionaires- where’s the push for paid leave?!
Teaching is: going back to work 5 days after COVID regardless of how you’re feeling because you can’t afford to take any more sick days since they are your future “paid” maternity leave. @massteacher fix this.
