@News12LI Involved? And why are your links always difficult

OFFICER RECOVERING: An on-duty #NassauCounty Police Highway Patrol officer is in critical condition but recovering in the hospital this morning after being involved in a serious crash in Suffolk County yesterday morning. - bit.ly/4o5Hq81

@1adimotesi @ma1ybe Girls used to be bartered, traded for alliances and sold into marriage. Told to serve and obey. Taught it was their fault if they couldn’t keep their man happy. Yes people give up and don’t put the work in but the fairy tale was rarely true.

We live in an age where love has lost its gravity, and family has lost its sanctity. Relationships no longer grow roots, they just orbit convenience. People walk away not because love is gone, but because patience is. Once, to love meant to build, a home, a memory, a lineage. Now it’s an experiment in comfort. We no longer fight for meaning; we negotiate our exits. The sacred idea of family, of shared struggle, shared bread, and shared silence has become almost foreign. We used to believe that love was a place where we stayed, even when it rained. Now, it’s a performance of happiness that vanishes at the first storm. Commitment feels outdated, loyalty feels heavy, and solitude has been rebranded as freedom. The real tragedy isn’t that someone made a single pancake and didn’t offer it, it’s that we live in a time where no one cooks for two anymore. We’ve forgotten that love is work. That family isn’t a feeling, it’s a decision renewed every day to stay, to care, to build. Maybe that’s the crisis of our century: not the loss of love, but the loss of endurance. Not the death of family, but its quiet fading replaced by fleeting desires dressed as freedom.

my friend left her boyfriend of 3 years cause last night he quietly got up from the couch, went into the kitchen, measured out all the ingredients to make pancakes, made One Single Pancake, sat back down on the couch, ate it quietly, and did not even ask her if she wanted one

@SusanBEdelman Will Mulgrew be covered by this plan? What ever he negotiates for he should be bound to.

Full disclosure is crucial not only for NYC employees and retirees but for city taxpayers.

@UFT @HarborSchool @NOAA And the UFT had what to do with this?

This summer, @HarborSchool's Robert Markuske traded the classroom for life at sea. As part of @NOAA’s Teacher at Sea program, he worked aboard a research vessel — collecting stories and photos along the way. Now he’s ready to bring his insights to class. bit.ly/45EVaAv

@AkaWhacked @hwinkler4real Vague? It’s a post not a bio. Check out the show “better late than never” they went into some details of his history in their travels

Fonz where were your grandparents taken? You’re being a little vague. But more importantly, we must NEVER FORGET ..My tax dollars and savings that get taken from my wallet to support the commie bullshit policies that you promote.. Russian Ice Skating coaches only take cash or rubles.

We must NEVER FORGET ..My grandmother and Grandfather were taken ..I never knew them

@johannsen_tony @hwinkler4real I do. I teach middle school it’s a tiny part of the 8th grade curriculum and the kids do not have any prior knowledge

@hwinkler4real Do you feel like people have forgotten?

@SusanBEdelman @NYC_SCI She forged letters but my principal wanted a death certificate when my dad died , the 5th death in the family request in more than 20 years. Unreal the difference from one school to another

A Brooklyn paraprofessional sought "Death in the Family" paid leave for 21 relatives since 2016, and forged more than 12 letters saying she attended funerals that never happened, @NYC_SCI found. “It’s not only unethical, but she let down the special-needs kids who rely on her,” said a teacher at PS K369, a school for students with autism, cognitive disabilities and emotional disturbances. She owes taxpayers at least $1,960.95 for the bogus bereavement, officials say. nypost.com/2025/07/12/us-…

@YG20910 @SusanBEdelman @ZohranKMamdani @UFT But then no dental coverage, no eyeglass or hearing aid coverage, no prescription plan…

@SusanBEdelman @ZohranKMamdani @UFT

BREAKING: The NYC teachers' union just endorsed @ZohranKMamdani for mayor. The @UFT resolution passed with 63% of the delegate assembly voting in favor. Mamdani "is the candidate who will best serve this city," it says.

@DittoPost @SusanBEdelman @ZohranKMamdani @UFT Generous?

@SusanBEdelman @ZohranKMamdani @UFT Pretty sad that Mayor Adams gave teachers a generous contract only for them to betray him to support the Jew hating Zohran. However these early endorsements are strategic with less impact.

@BFWEllY @News12LI And then you have the rocket scientists in the left lane doing 40🙄

DRIVER WANTED: The driver of the vehicle sped away at 110 mph, weaving in and out of traffic to evade officers. - bit.ly/46cQJxx

@offgridteacher @technologylaura I’ve never had access to any info in the summer

@technologylaura I’ve never had a firm roster before the start of school, and at some point had changes daily for the first few weeks.

One of my favorite summertime activities is to mail all my incoming students a letter! Relationships matter 📫

@TweetsbyMrUU @UFT No bonus, they are smoke & mirrors. Half is lost to taxes and they don’t count as our salary so not included in our retirement calculation. What is needed is a real raise.

@UFT Assuming you’ll also work out a bonus for the teachers and educators who actually make lesson plans and teach in the classroom, and have to get rated each school year?

"Because of the number of people who have signed on to this bill, they must give us a committee hearing. Period, end of story," said UFT President Michael Mulgrew. uft.org/news/news-stor…

@UFT Enough with this just do your job and get them a real contractual raise.

Which would you choose?💭 #debate #choose #lessons

@ChalkbeatNY Could you choose a better color contrast? This is very difficult to see

Reducing class sizes may require thorny tradeoffs, including enrollment caps at popular schools or pushing for waivers. How will the mayoral candidates approach the mandate? chalkbeat.org/newyork/2025/0…

@SusanBEdelman @UFT @nypost Why does the UFT need to endorse anyone?

The Mayor halted @UFT's requirement that candidates teach for a day to be eligible for the union's endorsement after @nypost called it a blatant violation of DOE rules forbidding the use of schools for political purposes. nypost.com/2025/05/10/us-…
