When I heard this I assumed I misheard it. But he actually said that!

@AutisticCoach_ @ashleyann_atx Having a routine for the day is key for us. We leave for school the exact same time, dinner at the same time, bedtime routine that doesn’t change and this provides consistency. I also tell my children exactly why I do or don’t want something. ‘I’m overwhelmed and need quiet’

To all the #ActuallyAutistic parents of autistic kids out there - What’s the most important piece of advice you’d give to someone else?

Y8 are still struggling with compound area, especially with subtraction. Today I made them write a plan without numbers before they were allowed to do any calculations. It worked pretty well - I need to do this sort of thing more often.

My eldest child got into a small altercation with another kid after he called me a f****t. A friend explained the word and she shoved him down and yelled at him. I’m proud of her for standing up for me but sad she has to deal with that. The closet protects them more than me😞

Oh, be careful, Merriam-Webster, lest we suffer vertigo from the dizzying heights of our lexical ground.

Retweet if you agree that LGBTQ+ Alaskans belong here, no matter what. 🩷 #akleg #alaska

My new absolute favorite color!!!

HB 183, the anti-trans youth sports ban, has moved into its final committee of referral in the #akleg House. Please call in opposition this Friday, April 12 at 1pm in the House Judiciary committee. More info & how to submit written testimony here: plannedp.info/opposeHB183

@libbybakalar I agree!!!

Is there any like super rich people out there that want to buy a broke teacher a house? I am so tired of renting, I’ll never be able to afford a house and just wonder if there is someone out there in the world that would buy one for me. Sigh.

As an autistic person, a societal custom I don’t connect with is wanting to do cool things ‘just so I can say I’ve done them’. I only want to do fun things when and because they truly appeal to me. The conversational/storytelling value they may have isn’t a consideration for me.

@KateBurkeNHS Can I join?

@1825Todd @beanlump @starlightsky3 @ErinInTheMorn I suspect you don’t want to explicitly say what you’re thinking. I also suspect you’re not great at reading because I mentioned earlier that I am in the closet at work. Which means I do not express verbally or with ‘flags’ that I am gay. I have subject related posters on walls.

@elaroom207 @beanlump @starlightsky3 @ErinInTheMorn I suspect you don’t want to admit that you are trying to indoctrinate children

In Frenchtown, Montana, northwest of Missoula, they have transferred students out of a lesbian teacher's class. We are speedrunning back to the lavender scare of the 1950s, where gay teachers were fired and kids were removed from classrooms of those suspected of being gay.

@1825Todd @beanlump @starlightsky3 @ErinInTheMorn I’d prefer not to say as then it gives away the subject I do teach and I am anonymous on here. But if you can give me an explicit example of what you’re thinking I can say yes or no.

@elaroom207 @beanlump @starlightsky3 @ErinInTheMorn Do you not know what you have hanging on the walls of your classroom?

@1825Todd @beanlump @starlightsky3 @ErinInTheMorn Hmm can you give an example? Like a sports team? Or a college? I suppose those are pendants. I don’t have those either. It doesn’t align with the subject I teach

@elaroom207 @beanlump @starlightsky3 @ErinInTheMorn I said any other flag. Not any other country’s flag.

@1825Todd @beanlump @starlightsky3 @ErinInTheMorn I don’t teach history or a foreign language so I’m confused about the question ? Why would I have other countries flags in my classroom?

@elaroom207 @beanlump @starlightsky3 @ErinInTheMorn Any other flag ?

@1825Todd @beanlump @starlightsky3 @ErinInTheMorn Yep! The American flag proudly hangs next to the white board.

@elaroom207 @beanlump @starlightsky3 @ErinInTheMorn Do you have any flags hanging up in your classroom?
