@FixingEducation I teach photography and video production. 20-24 ideal. 30-36 my reality. ☠️

What is the ideal number of students in your classroom for what you teach?

@mikepompeo Tanked your career for nothing, guy!

Iran needs to meet tonight's deadline. The world is watching.

@SenateGOP Can’t wait until the nation votes you dumb fucks out of office in November. Americans hate endless wars.

Iran would be wise to take President Trump at his word.  They can choose the easy way or the hard way.

@atrupar Raise your hand if you can’t wait for THAT day. I don’t drink much but have Champaign on hand. 🍾

Donald Trump just posted a video of Somali people enjoying the Mall of America to the soundtrack of “Mad World” because he is a bigoted POS

@PeteHegseth Burn in hell, you drunken racist fool. Adultery is a sin. As is bombing school children.

God is good.

🇺🇸 NEW POLL: 75% of Americans say Pete Hegseth should be removed from office. Retweet if you’re one of the 75%.

@thejointstaff Sorry you guys have to deal with a pompous ass who cares more about doing push-ups on camera than he does about the lives lost in this pointless war.

On behalf of the Joint Force and the Joint Chiefs, we extend our deepest gratitude to Chief of Staff of the Army, General Randy George, for his decades of steadfast service to our nation. Since 1988, General George and his family have consistently answered the nation’s call with honor and dedication. We are profoundly thankful to General George and his wife, Patty, for their many years of sacrifice and devotion to those who serve. As they graduate from this distinguished chapter of service and look toward the future, we wish them both continued happiness and success in all that lies ahead.

@phildstewart Ah. Make mass shootings more likely. Check.

Troops can now request to carry their own personal firearms on base for personal protection, without having to explain why they need to protect themselves on base.

@DoomsdayAtm @basedgizmo Hahaha

@basedgizmo I went to see The Backrooms and the projector kept breaking down and every time it did this dork would come in and tell us about his job at a tattoo shop and all these women he was having sex with while trying to find out about some dead shut-in.

Okay so as great as this looks, how close does something get to come to House of Leaves before Danielewski has to step in and say that was my thing

@Fergy4Tech @dan_wayne_smith @lilyalta Teachers want to do these things and get scolded for making too many copies and not using the tech tools.

@dan_wayne_smith @Krabappel42 @lilyalta The question becomes why? Why don't teachers create engaging tasks for collaboration, critical thinking, & hands on? Quality teaching has not changed, nor has the opportunity to use it. What supports do teachers need? What needs to be removed from plates so they can invest?

NEW: a school in northern MI might just be a test case for the anti-screen movement. Educators banned Chromebooks in the middle of the school year. We spent a day: chalkbeat.org/2026/03/25/scr…

@dan_wayne_smith @Fergy4Tech @lilyalta Same and the teachers are not a fan but the district pushes it.

@Fergy4Tech @Krabappel42 @lilyalta No idea 🤷 why, but it isn’t appropriate to give second graders iPads and ask for all homework to be done on it. Reading, writing, math it all being done on school district issued iPads where I live from 2nd grade to 12th.

@TifahCrump777 @LairdOfThManor Same! I think her content is great, and I would probably have some of that if I were rich, lol.

@LairdOfThManor Nothing about this gives unhinged. I need that bed machine she has

No disrespect to this lady, each to their own as they say, but this seems completely unhinged to me!😬😮

@dan_wayne_smith @lilyalta We have an email list of shame that goes out. It’s ridiculous.

@Krabappel42 @lilyalta Happens in ours too, every student has an iPad and they scold you for printing anything.

@dan_wayne_smith @Fergy4Tech @lilyalta Agreed. I teach all digital art and video classes, and I’m not anti technology at all. But it’s gone too far and too easy for kids to have the tech replace their thinking.

@Fergy4Tech @Krabappel42 @lilyalta Yes it is a balance, public schools have swung way too far the tech side of the balance.

@Fergy4Tech @lilyalta Totally agree

@Krabappel42 @lilyalta There should be a balance of quality learning that includes an in person touch and technology that provides a an experience that can be difficult to replicate such as models, individualization, and access to resource not available in classrooms or at home.

@TolentinoTeach Unfortunately when we try to hold students accountable we get pressure from admin.

Unpopular opinion: In an era obsessed with “backward planning” and over-scaffolded lessons, all under the banner of “meeting students where they are,” much of what passes for effective teaching has become spoon-fed and feel-good. Too often, we give students more support than they need—and in doing so, we rob them of productive struggle, resilience, and real learning.

@DavWarren3 @effortfuleduktr Good point lol

@effortfuleduktr lol honestly, the robots would be destroyed within a week...like actually broken apart lol

Me, thinking about Plato controlling a classroom of 30 middle school students...sure, robots are coming to take teacher's jobs...okay.

@kelley718 @NicholasFerroni It’s demoralizing. I like my students and coworker but things are fraying around the edges for sure

@Krabappel42 @NicholasFerroni Same situation….and the only culture we have is negativity

If you’re a teacher and your first thought walking into school is “what is going to happen today” or “I just have to get through today”—instead of what you’ll be teaching—something isn’t right in your school culture. And you deserve better.
