I thought about doing a thread about my favorite lesson plan, but as I sat here on my computer tonight the thread turned into a 2200 page essay. So I published my first Medium post. I give you, "Catastrophe Commons."

Just putting this out there. #SaveAct
Actually pretty sad that I couldn’t understand the #badbunnysuperbowl show. I’ve always sucked at languages. Gonna fix that though. Time to really commit to learning Spanish. Unity is resistance.
MAGA is mad that Puerto Ricans speak Spanish. They will push to acquire Greenland. And then be angry that Greenlanders want to speak Greenlandic
I live seeing this shit because the premise of this post is so ridiculous that it shows these people are grasping at straws. #badbunny met the hate with love, put on a beautiful show, didn’t give the detractors oxygen.
Tonight, “Bad Bunny” ended his halftime show urging everyone to show “love” to all foreign countries as he spoke in spanish.
Meanwhile, @KidRock urged everyone to give their lives to Jesus and dust off their Bibles.
The choice is clear, America.
The #superbowl halftime show was so fucking classy. So beautiful. Such a show of pride and unity. I think it’s the only halftime show that actually brought tears to my eyes. It must mean so much to so many people and I’m so happy for everyone that must feel deeply connected to it
#badbunny has a whole set featuring a beautiful family wedding. What’s up conservatives? You gonna complain about that?
This #SuperBowl halftime show slaps. Shouldn’t be a controversial statement. Go #BadBunny !!!
Every other social media I have is full of some of the worst people I’ve ever seen except for Threads, in which my entire feed is full of cat lovers who think Tova and Ruggles are the best thing in the world
If I were pregnant t and wanted to expire adoption I would 100% choose a loving gay couple over a Christian nationalist family every single time. Every. single. Time.
The problem is, Biology discriminates.
It requires one man and one woman to create a child—and it strongly favors that mother and father when it comes to children’s outcomes.
Obergefell prohibited the state from recognizing that difference. By refusing to distinguish between same-sex and opposite-sex couples, the law had to marginalize the one party who actually depends on that distinction: the child.
This can’t be real. These people are so unserious
One solution for America's birth rate crisis is to encourage and support young couples marrying & starting families while they're in college.
College classes are just a few hours each day - plenty of time left for parenting and & studying.
Late night wake-ups with a baby are no problem for college students who are used to pulling all-nighters.
Mom and dad can trade off childcare - one studies while the other parents.
Mom can also study during naps, breastfeeding, or audiobook walks.
A small apartment is fine for a young couple with a baby and toddler.
On-site college daycares can offer flexible childcare, letting student-parents drop off their children for a few focused hours of studying when needed.
It's doable - let's make it normal.
I was just reminiscing about how I gave my wedding dress away on a Mutual Aid group and how everyone in the comments cracked up because the description included the line “dress isn’t cursed. We’re very happily married. Just want to pay it forward” 🤣
The plot of the entire back half of season 4 of 24 deals with the consequences of doing this and Jack Bauer goes into hiding and is kidnapped by the Chinese in Season 5 and loses Audrey forever and I THOUGHT THESE PEOPLE LOVED THAT SHOW!!!
I’m gonna be super vulnerable right now because this kind of stuff makes me so angry. I haven’t mentioned this at all on on social media and honestly most people in my life don’t even know about it but I recently got a wheelchair through insurance.
the house using a mobility aid would *choose* of their own volition to do so. I miss going on a nice run. Shit… I miss going on a long walk. I would much rather ditch the looks, the inconvenience, the world that is not accessible, the navigation of curbs and cobblestones,
