The news just announced that Eric Adams now wants to destroy all 150 homeless encampments in NYC by Friday, with no plans to house the people currently living in them, if you want to talk about violence.

🚨ALERT🚨
@NYCMayor’s preliminary budget would defund:
🍎Schools by $1B
🏥Public hospitals by $1B
🏠Homeless services by $500M
🌳Parks by $100M
♻️Sanitation by $50M
@NYCCouncil colleagues, let’s say ❌NO❌ to defunding public safety & public health!
Instead: @PeoplesPlanNYC!

Hello from Krakow Poland! There are organizations here sending supplies to our neighbors in Ukraine. I’m collecting donations and will use anything I can for supplies (clothing, toiletries, food, medicines). If you can’t donate please RT and share! #StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦 🇵🇱

As grateful as we are to have student voices at the center of the table, we felt dismissed and sensed some disrespect towards teachers. We’re looking forward to our second session and hope student voices are not only heard but acted upon.
When students add their voice to the conversations that impact their school life, great things can happen! Today, I met with a group of 25 @NYCschools student leaders who participated in last week’s walk out to learn firsthand about their concerns, ideas, & learning experiences.
it’s super fun and cool that my covid symptoms simply will not go away. having this kind of cough gives me such wild amounts of anxiety over having to go to the ER for an asthma attack

School districts that refuse to provide alternative or remote schooling options in a pandemic but then send truancy notes to parents who keep their kids home because of the pandemic really need to think hard about who’s interests they are serving.

I will start calling Covid the same as the common cold when you don’t get long-haul illnesses and permanent disability from Covid. I don’t understand why people are going with this narrative now. It’s not like a common cold. Death isn’t the only bad outcome here.

I love when cops put out stats like “Over 300 officers died in the line of duty this year. We salute their sacrifice” and then the specific causes of death are like 250 covid, 23 from stepping on a rake and tripping down the stairs, and 14 from not chewing their food all the way
had a student ask if she could still pass my class while staying home and using google classroom for assignments bc she is too worried to come to school. she doesn’t want to bring covid back to her newborn sister. yes, i cried when i got that email.
