Nope, 1 more. I've been working on accepting that I likely won't be going back to academia. Leaving these tweets public probably seals that bc ~~don't say ~bad things~ about former employers~~. So. Be good to each other, care for yourselves & your students as best you can.❤️3/end

Tho I knew some of my kids needed to talk about Thousand Oaks, I didn’t want to scare anyone. Instead I asked them to write a line in response to this sentence: “Last night, twelve libraries burned down.” The result is this uncanny poem. The oldest student is 14.
Thrilled today to announce the launch of https://t.co/Rj0dHuvUbG, a free public access point for 6.4M+ state and federal court decisions spanning our nation's entire history!
Sometimes there are actual systemic issues at play when someone is experiencing longterm unemployment
and defaulting to the assumption that someone isn't actually trying their hardest to find a job is just gaslighting
