I was in middle school in the mid-90s.

It’s just a shitty time. Kids are incredibly cruel, your body is doing weird things, you’re in this weird place of gaining independence but still a kid.

Mostly, kids are incredibly cruel.

I can’t speak for K08, but from what I’ve seen of middle schoolers the last couple years is ugly. There is very little respect or support even between friends. Everybody exists only to shit on their peers. The way to get ahead socially is just to make everyone else feel lower than you. They are openly vaping apparently. Skibbidy toilet fortnight Ohio sigma rizz

In short. They are little shits.

Going through it right now. Last 6 months were tough. Just know and talk to them about everything. Don’t assume anything and explain things.

I used to collect hockey cards when I was a kid. A cousin gave me a mess of them from 67.

I had my own from 68 and 69, and then later 71 72 74 75 I think 76 is probably the last year I bought them. I didn't buy any in the '80s.

I gave them all to a friend of mine.


I can't post the 70 Opechee or the 71 topps of Bobby Orr on my phone but I had them both. If anyone wants to put them up, they're pretty cool. The Opechee in particular still gives me chills.

Nah, that's a good line.

The more I teach and work with children, the more I appreciate the craft and artistry of running a classroom. Classroom management is difficult!

I was blessed with an excellent elementry, middle school and high school education in Grosse Pointe, Michigan.

I still remember some of the teachers who had a very positive effect on me. I was very lucky.

All of which is to say, Mr. Lightfoot, "You go, girl!"

I'm starting to get concerned about our astronauts stuck in spacem

They may have to stay there until February 2025.

For some reason Boeing offloaded the software that would control an uncrewed re-entry before the launch. Boeing now wants to upload that software so they could try an uncrewed re-entry that way they could study Starliner hands on.

Either way the crew will almost certainly not be coming home on the Starliner. NASA does not trust the spacecraft to bring them home alive (thruster issues) and is working on an alternative. One is to remove 2 astronauts from an upcoming flight and have the stranded crew come home on the return flight. They have also been talking to SpaceX about a rescue flight.

I wouldn't trust Boeing if they offered me a free cookie.

I'm hoping SpaceX can help.
