Somehow, the racist Trump lady who immediately jumped to the conclusion that Haitians had taken her cat that was in her basement still has more BASIC HUMAN DECENCY than JD Vance... because she, at least, apologized.

I can't wrap my head around the fact that teachers are doing the work of curriculum writers FOR FREE & journalists are being paid to relay messages from heads of research institutes that they're hurting their students bc their work isn't officially sanctioned by a corporation

When Netanyahu says "our enemies are your enemies, our victory is your victory" also remember the corollary: "our killing of innocents is your killing of innocents."

America is deeply complicit in Netanyahu's barbaric war on civilians in Gaza.

Privilege is being convicted of 34 felonies and being able to hold a press conference after.

Folks... the people who vote for Donald Trump know he uses the n-word. THAT'S WHY THEY LIKE HIM!

Trump being caught on tape saying it is the feature, not the bug.

Yes, the person making food at McDonalds should be able to afford rent and groceries with their paycheck.

@kenklippenstein "have they tried being rich?"

What's cool about looking back at the history of college protests is that 19 year old students have been right about every single American war, and the esteemed Harvard educated opinion writers at the New York Times have been wrong about every single American war.

5/5 If we allow legislators & school boards to make teachers "accountable" for producing higher test scores, you can bet students will receive an education completely out of step with the best thinking about how kids learn. The scores may rise even as the learning stagnates.

Thread: I know you've heard it: Students are fleeing to the south because of woke. Is it true? We can't know the reasons (other than talking to your boss's nephew who wouldn't go to Harvard even if he could get admitted) <sure, jan gif>

But we have data. Follow along.

@howie_hua I like the way some have suggested counting by 4's. I'm partial to counting by 5's...but my first thought is are there any apples to discount as inedible?

[Alfie Kohn @alfiekohn]

2/2
"Phrases such as 'higher achievement,' 'positive outcomes,' & 'better results' refer only to standardized test scores. These are poor indicators of intellectual proficiency and primarily measure socioeconomic status or the extent of students' training in test-taking skills."

[Elie Mystal @ElieNYC]

What if Trump violates the gag order? Why you asking me, I only know about how the law works for EVERYBODY ELSE.

@howie_hua 30 + 30 - 2 - 1

This plot earned a "Wow" from Elon so I guess we need to talk about it. Here's a thread of basic mistakes I see over and over again in these terrible race science plots:

New Study Shows 14% of Educators Who Leave the Teaching Profession Before Retirement Do So Because of the Sound Metal Water Bottles Make When They Fall on Classroom Floor

[NYTPitchbot @DougJBalloon]

We were tired of critics accusing our news organization of being liars, with no basis in fact. So we hired Ronna McDaniel.
