@doctorjaymarie@mastodon.world I’m Mardi Gra’d out.

Robbing From the Poor to Educate the Rich - In an age of staggering income inequality, America’s public schools remains one of the last and best mechanisms for advancing equal opportunity. That is precisely why they are targeted. @thenation https://www.thenation.com/article/society/vouchers-attack-public-education/ #Education
It’s nice to be relaxing at home while everyone else is crowded around downtown fighting for cheap beads and moonpies. I hate the crowds of #MardiGras.

The Ukrainian population is keenly aware of the military assistance needed to combat a Russian offensive, says Ukrainian MP Yevheniia Kravchuk. “Everyone— a child knows what HIMARS (are). Now every child would tell you we need F-16’s.” #velshi http://ow.ly/Zfq050MWvBi

curious, because it will help inform what I talk about/boost and how I talk about it. If this poll reaches you, are you cis?
I'm most curious about people who directly follow me, but with the way the fediverse works it's probably best to include anyone reached by this. Boost this if you'd boost me talking about trans topics, I suppose, since that's likely the most accurate audience.
@PhilMoscovitch @stephen My Apple Watch didn’t count my steps for years. It’s finally caught on that I don’t move like a typical able-bodied person.

I recently presented on the history of edtech, remindjng teachers that disruptions happen in education, and unfortunately it takes 30 years to become ubiquitous in the classroom.
My main example was the pencil. It upended years of curriculum and assessments that were implemented orally.
Twenty years after the mass produced pencil’s introduction teachers were calling for the built in eraser to be banned.

T---p's lawyers remind me of the inexhaustible waves of Soviet troops during the Battle of Stalingrad. As the front line guys are eliminated, the next line picks up their rifles and continues into the meat grinder.
I know why the Red Army fought. No idea why the orange army does.
@AmerLiberal @palmerreport @Drdind This should be the story for every person pardoned by TFG.
@Computeforloot I will add them to my list!
@thepoliticalcat And actions speak louder than words.
@Computeforloot I liked that, but not my favorite of his. He’s my favorite for military/hard core sci-fi.
@GatekeepKen He looks like an extra from “30 Days of Night.”
@Computeforloot Maybe you and my husband should plan to watch it at some point. 😉
@Computeforloot A propos of nothing (other than re-reading your profile again), do you read John Ringo?
@Computeforloot Interesting you put it that way. I watched alone. My husband can’t stand shows that start slow, so after the first 5 minutes he left to go play on his new computer. Pity, cause he missed something he would have enjoyed.
Just finished watching #Sharper on AppleTV+. GREAT movie. Really enjoyed it.
