one of my 1st graders came up to me today n said
“miss Olivia, do you like eggs?”
& I said “yeah?”
& he said “do you like *farm fresh* eggs?”
& I said “…yeah?”
And then he pulled this egg out of the breast pocket of his tiny 7 year old sized jacket and said “here ya go!”

To ask teachers to be on the front line of mass shootings, the front line of a pandemic, and the front line of the struggle against inequality all while underpaying them and systematically underfunding the education system is both cruel and a recipe for societal collapse.

At least try. Call it the No More Dead Children Act. Ban every automatic and semiautomatic weapon from consumer sale. Generous buybacks for banned guns and ammo. Extensive background checks, minimum age to purchase 21 for hunting rifles. At least try

I have nothing to say that hasn’t already been said.
But I love each of my students with my whole heart & looking at all their sweet, hopeful faces today is really hard.

seeing and hearing a Senator physically shaking with fury is honestly the first time since last night that I've felt like someone with power fully gets it.

[eat soup @jasminericegirl]

if you actually cared about kids you should probably put more funding into schools, health care, shelters, foster care, and food programs, not force people who don't want kids to have them

🙄

A lot of good that did in 2020.

Dems are going to use this to fundraise and get you to vote for them again despite sitting on their hands for the last two years. Instead of actually standing for anything, their only strategy is scaring you into voting blue.
