Elementary teacher in another lifetime.
Uncertain about our future, but definitely NOT giving up.
Continually inspired by former student @AOC

This remains timely:
If I ever have another job interview, and someone asks “Why do you think you could do this job? You’ve never done anything like this before...”
I will proceed to tell them the story of teaching during a pandemic...
“It’s a Wonderful Life” is @rbreich.bsky.social favorite movie.
It’s a story for our current moment.
Potter is Tr-mp.
We cannot let him destroy us.

Conservatives yell “socialism” at every initiative designed to help people.

Maybe you've heard the word a few times already today.

But this is nothing more than an old scare tactic.

A functioning government requires pooling resources for the common good. Let me explain.

Simple changes that would go a long way. We must strengthen our democracy so that it works for everyday Americans!
Make democracy work for the people:

✅ Ban stock trading for Members of Congress

✅ Ironclad ethics laws for the Supreme Court

✅ Stronger enforcement and penalties for breaking anti corruption laws

✅ Get dark money out of elections

✅ Protect access to voting

✅ End the gerrymandering wars

If Trump wants veterans in Congress killed for affirming U.S. law, doesn’t that make him the very danger the Founders warned would destroy the republic, the kind impeachment was designed for?

The weather in the Hudson Valley today seems to be mirroring our current political moment— a little bit of everything—all at the same time.
Just when you think things are settling down a tad—Boom.
Sideways rain.
Wind.
And Blue sky.

The yoga teacher offered up the following mantra this morning for us to use during class:
“What if everything turns out better than you ever thought it would?”

Such a great thought.

But all I could think of was:
“F-ck Chuck.
F-ck Chuck.
F-ck Chuck.”

And in other news…
There are certain things you think are set in stone and will never change.
And then one day, you discover change is possible.
