Identify a beverage that has a terrible flavor yet people continue to rave about it as if it's fantastic

@anjewla90 This is so scary!

A terrifying incident unfolded Tuesday at a day camp at Lev Leviev School (Queens Gymnasia) in Queens after a black male entered armed with a hammer and shoved a child into a fence. Counselors quickly tackled the suspect, with one counselor reportedly bitten during the struggle. The child and counselor were taken to the hospital. NYPD isinvestigating, including whether the attack could be classified as a hatecrime. The suspect is in custody. The investigation remains ongoing.

@dailystem A nice change from the alphabet game!

Road trip math: can you use 4 digits to equal 24 using ➕➖✖️➗

@NiohBerg Horrific.

A basiji just told a crying mother at the execution site in Esfahan to "cry louder". They are sadistic demons.

Midnight Train @matthaig1 is an INCREDIBLE book about a man desperate to convince his younger self to live life the right way. Poignant, powerful.

LOVED!! Such a great story, incorporating different kids’ POV on how they started not sleeping anymore. Ea found ways to fill the time- becoming more athletic, more studious… Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Lots to discuss! @gordonkorman

This NF PB tells the origin story of audiobooks! Engaging and informative. Adding to this coming year’s list for #SibertSmackdown!

@TheSudsyMango Staff goes back Sept 8; students Sept 10… (but we only ended June 26!)

Summer is coming to a close for a lot of us - When do you report back to school?! I have a half day AM the 4th and I'm back full time the 5th. Students start back the 13th.

@GilStudent Not at Mattel Leah:)

If we had honest wedding invitations

@nrps78 @educator4ever36 That may be, but they can still be a mensch to their staff

@aslan_magic @educator4ever36 and the stress on the admin is far greater than you see or know

I have been thinking a lot lately about the teachers who are not looking forward to the new school year. The ones that want to retire but can’t, the ones that are tired just thinking about obstacles already. I wish our profession had better ways to help teachers in these situations.

@LakenBrimicombe Yes; I loved it. Beautiful writing

Can’t wait to start reading Rialto. As a theme park enthusiast, I knew I’d have to check this one out. And such a ✨gorgeous✨ cover! Has anyone else read Rialto?🎠

@janemhealy Gorgeous!! Yes, that is what it looks like. I have a hydrangea bush in my front yard, yielding blue/ purple ones, but the individual petals seem more coarse.

@aslan_magic No. This is the flower or head of the hydrangea. Ours is white, but with soil amendments can be pink or blue. Each flower is like a bouquet in itself and are quite large, like 4-6 inches across. Here’s a pic of the bush and surrounding day lilies

Happy Saturday! grandmother’s tatting sumptuous summer doily hydrangea head lace #haiku #haikusaturday

@muellerspace I need to stock up!!

I'm doing my own graphic novel readathon this weekend if anyone wants to join in!

@PreislerKa Hero

Shabbat Shalom to everyone celebrating. I wish everyone else a lovely evening, too. See you on the streets!

@jenteach13 @EdnaKrabapple1 I’m moving down to a k-2 12:1:1 special class. I plan to use our goose as a character in social stories, to help as a visual cue for transitions, to help introduce new concepts, etc.

@EdnaKrabapple1 @aslan_magic I wrote about my goose here: open.substack.com/pub/stillatthe…

Back to School Teacher Suggestion: Pick the outfit now if it helps you feel ready, just don't let it become one more thing to stress over.

@jewishmemequeen Luckily I bought
