Hi, Twitter. I am not deactivating this account, but I’ll no longer be posting here or reading DMs. You can find me sharing author news and other info on Threads/IG @ authorjenmathieu. Love to all. May tomorrow bring more justice and more peace. 💜

@heymrsbond THIS. I *completely* understand why vulnerable people are making plans to move, and I know people mean well when they suggest we do so. But I do not want to be told to move like it’s easy to give up decades of history. My people. My home. My entire life! (I’m in TX, too.)

@rationalhumanis @Summer603ZZZ @wil_da_beast630 There are teachers on every campus in America who are paid with federal funds like Title 1 money to work with certain special populations like children in poverty or children with special needs. Federal dollars may not go to *every* kid but they do go to many.

@heymrsbond I am so sorry. I won’t pretend to have advice. Sending you 💜

A colleague found me weeping at my desk. She offered to pray with me, and it was very comforting. People of faith, lean into your faith this morning.

If there is a lesson I have learned these last 10 years or so, it is this: Hell has a basement.

@heymrsbond I am glad you did. Very glad.

@heymrsbond As a fellow Texas teacher, I hear this. I never slept. I am gutted. Destroyed. How do I go to school?

Do not give your sobriety to Trump. For anyone who needs to hear it.

Let's defeat this bad bond!

Every child—whether affluent or struggling, new to this nation or not, from Sunnyside to River Oaks—deserves to be nurtured, supported, inspired to love learning, and prepared not just for college or a career, but for a life of joy and purpose

@SJessicaJohnson I remember holding a crying student in my arms as he asked me if his mother would get deported.

Heading into the election I am 90% fury, 10% diet coke

@BlackGirlTris @benyahr We need to write songs about her and possibly erect a statue. :-)

Me talking about Ann Selzer (who I found out exists one hour ago)

[Jennifer Mathieu @jenmathieu]

@canderaid Can we please have both? 🥰

@WalkersMom2019 @Bakari_Sellers As a Texan, I thank you. And I pray for the day sanity returns to the GOP.
