The Fault in Our Stars has been removed from the YA section in the suburbs of Indianapolis and is now considered a "book for adults." This is ludicrous. It is about teenagers and I wrote it for teenagers.
Teenagers are not harmed by reading TFIOS. This is such an embarrassment to the city of @FishersIN.

PSA - Don't buy @HP. Dealing with @HPSupport is awful.
Every company in the world: "You want to cancel an order that's been in our system for 30 days? No problem."
HP: "We have to contact a specialist and it can take 1-2 days. No promises that we can cancel it."
WTF is wrong?
There are 2 times in my life when I've heard the term "ORV". Goonies and the second ET episode of the @SoundtrackHSW. Thanks for such high quality work and homages to the bedrock of my adolescence.

They don't work for the kids you want them to work for, they screw up the accuracy of your reporting, they are completely arbitrary and inauthentic, and they don't teach self-regulation.
Reviewing course surveys in a Information Security class I teach. Student feedback about the most memorable lessons: "...any time we had a lab with that involved the Dark Net Diaries." Maybe I'll just assign every episode of @DarknetDiaries in the Spring.

K12 OER. The price is only a happy byproduct of OER. The true value is the pedagogy.

Remember when teachers wouldn't let students use calculators? I wonder if that would have been different if Ti-84s had a "EXPLAIN" button.

I've been reluctant to post this.
I recorded my reaction when I saw the #accessibility settings in #TheLastofUsPartII for the first time thinking it would be a fun video for posterity. I...did not expect this.
This is why we do what we do. 😢
Thank you @Naughty_Dog.
Even if you don't like video games, this story is a wild rollercoaster. Be sure to check out the documentary "A Fistfull of Quarters". You can't make this up.
