Checking X for information about NC post-hurricane. You can find stuff but X is still mostly hot garbage. Unreal how bad it is compared to what it was 10 years ago. Embarrassed I suggested people use it. Hoping for the best for everyone dealing with hurricane fallout. ♥️

So, this website is mostly trash now, but I still appreciate the people and insights behind many of these accounts and, of course, all of my wonderful educator peeps. Hope you have a rejuvenating break, and may 2024 be your best year yet!

Imagine if you only consumed food you could acquire for free. That’s often an approach we take when it comes feeding our brains.

Straight from Detroit, we are RATE LIMITED!!!!

@holden Searching a given topic becomes a pain too because there is inevitably loads of garbage tweets you have to scan past to get to something substantiative. And now you have to spend more time looking at tweets to judge a specific source.

@mcwm We’ll find out when he tries to squat down and shoot electricity out of his back.

@AleoSmith06 Congratulations!!

I’m humbled to be a member of this class of Emerging Leaders. So much talent in this group. 🔥🔥🔥

@British_Buzz In terms of fit, what's your ideal target to keep for a pick after 25?

@jasonpaddock Not particularly, worried it wouldn't be a good fit for player or team, especially if they select Miller. In the real world scenario they won't keep all 5 picks, but if they did and GG slid that far in the draft they might bit the bullet and gamble on the talent

@dobsonat We could all probably share more. Sometimes it just seems silly because if you're not a very popular account, there's not much interaction. That's what I miss about early days of Twitter: was more exchange between users than now, where it seems like an aggregator of pop accounts.

@jasonpaddock I’m horrible. I do so much reading here, but not sharing. I have to up my game.

Since I just celebrated 15 yrs on Twitter, I have some ?s for my EDU peeps. How is Twitter important for you now? What types of things are you regularly posting? If you used to use T regularly for informal PD, how has the use changed? What about conference backchannel? Chats?

@coxtl The doom scroll is real.

@coxtl Is that because A. already learned a lot/not a lot new. B. not much participation beyond selfies and platitudes C. We're doing it wrong/there are better ways now. D. generally negative online culture E. Other?

@coxtl Same. Got me thinking with current conf. Used to get loads of ideas from back channel, though more from tech conf's. Then it gradually shifted to selfies & promotion. Wondering if the people that were originally involved just quit or moved to something else? (I can't do tik-tok)

@coxtl Good times.

Unbelievable. And so completely different than what most of us imagined early on. Do you remember when you joined Twitter? I do! #MyTwitterAnniversary

@holden Those big albums from the 90s like Dummy seemed to always glow in my CD collection.

@Paul_Bowers Knew of the problems here, but didn't every really look at the map of that district. It's pretty absurd, especially the Richland and Berkeley areas.

Ooh ooh, do my district next!
