The Introverted English Teacher
@bethcteach.bsky.social
Reader, writer, & learner who believes in the power of stories & storytelling to create empathy.

25 years as a public school teacher find me enjoying the teenagers and hating the bs.
Love my middle school Esports team-they are supportive and fun to be around.

This game is so fun!

My kid kept telling me about the devs working around the war in Ukraine, and then I had to play it.

Still irks me the sidequests that bugged out—I never did get credit for the last collar in the car junk yard.

My husband and I both teach in the Midwest US—I hope the dart trend doesn’t spread.

Seems to mostly be a middle grade thing?

A. Secondary. B. Not banned C. We adults strive to add it all over the place, so it is lame and therefore not cool.

Now if you wanted to ban something, paper darts with metal tips thrown into the ceiling would be right up there.
