Elon Musk's wealth alone shot up by 1,080%
Workers struggling to afford gas, groceries, healthcare are paying their fair share of taxes. Billionaires should 2.

A lot of people in the media are asking "Should Clarence Thomas recuse himself?" (Whether or not the answer to that is "Yes," he won't.) But that's the wrong question. The right one is this: "If Clarence Thomas doesn't resign when will impeachment proceedings against him begin?"

Ukraine has sustained at least $120 billion in infrastructure damage as a result of Russia's war there. I think Ukraine should be given Russia’s $415 billion in foreign exchange reserves that were seized by Western countries, as war reparations.
Who agrees? ✋

LOST TASTE 👅 SENSATIONS—This woman had #COVID19 and now cannot taste the difference between whiskey 🥃 hot sauce 🌶 vinegar or Diet Coke. But the “mild” minimizers would hand-wave that #LongCovid doesn’t count right? Stay safe during 🎄 everyone. teapaw.org/Connichameleon2/status…

BREAKING NEWS: California bans all state travel to Ohio over its new law which allows doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and even health insurance companies to deny medical services to LGBTQ+ Americans based on their own bigoted religious beliefs. RT IF YOU SUPPORT CALIFORNIA’S MOVE!
For many, this past school year has been the most difficult of our lifetime. It exposed so many of the long simmering challenges in education in stark and unflattering terms. And so we are presented with a choice: return to the old ways or push forward to something new & better.

We need to pay attention
PAY ATTENTION—the #DeltaVariant is the biggest worry & becoming more dominant worldwide. Why?
📍More contagious
📍More severe (⬆️hospitalization risk)
📍Lower vaccine efficacy/neutralization—1 dose just not enough.

As schools plan for fall, you don’t need canned curriculum, new programs, or initiatives to be more effective. You do need teachers to feel respected, valued, supported & appreciated, as well as feel like their talents/strengths are being utilized. Morale & achievement will soar!

Retention has been a hot topic as a way to "bring #students up to speed" next school year. The reality is that it is not the answer. There is no research proving it as an effective strategy & with an effect size of -0.32, it should not be to solution. ow.ly/wOQm50DEEGV

In this social media age, it’s important for admin to follow their staff. Not to monitor them or their posts in a negative way but to celebrate the posts of what they’re doing in their amazing classrooms.
