Good times in #OntEd: one pack of paper almost $18 if you’re a teacher, but general public pays $4.98.
Could we please just cancel this ridiculous Staples deal already?!?

Friends, PLEASE take a moment and DONATE to TINA'S HOSPITAL that's being built to care for the massive needs of Thailand's street dogs. If you love dogs, here's your change to change the world for a pup with no other help. happydoggo.com/tinas-hospita…

If you love the dog content I share…
🏃♂️ On Saturday I’ll try run 120km in 24 hours to build a hospital for street dogs.
I’m not sure how I’ll do it but I’ll do it for Tina. You can sponsor me here and see the full details… 🙏

Early covid aware people, the ones who looked for themselves, who accepted the grim reality unfolding, a lot of us knew pretty early, this could be a long time, decades maybe, we buckled up for the long haul (1

Ontario schools are in crisis mode.
No parent should ever have to worry that their child with complex needs will not be safe at school.
No parent should ever have to keep their child home from school because of a lack of special education support.
None of this is okay.

The more and more I see teachers, new teachers, teachers in training, and admin, the more and more I am coming to the realization that equity work in education can’t be compelled. People have to want to contribute to society in an equitable way.

Let’s see if we’re still willing to center Blackness even though February is over. Let’s see if that equity talk is just talk and nothing more. Let’s see if we actually look at our Black students like the actual children that they are…

If people accept that SARS-CoV-2 is dangerous, the following things will happen:
▪︎ They will feel intense fear, as they will understand that they live in a world where they are in a constant risk of infection by a harmful virus and no one cares (not even "health experts")

Seeing a lot of media coverage about increased aggression and behaviour issues in young children.
But nobody is connecting the dots to post-viral brain changes.
Look up PANS/PANDAS. Then think about what we are seeing in schools. search.app?link=https%3A%2F%…

I don’t think many realise just how powerful social conformity is, and how it explains human behaviour. Covid is a great example.
The in some ways misleadingly called ‘desire lines’ - self-generated footpaths - are a great way to see it. /1

Reminder for teachers and parents: A society in which no one is willing to risk being called a troublemaker is a society in which power is certain to be abused.

The influx of this “N-word problem” in our schools, and its use by non Black students demonstrates how deep anti-Black racism operates within our systems. No one is blaming the blatant. We need to acknowledge how insidious the forms of racism are. And that’s just step one.

I actually think parents will fight hardest against the info on long term health effects from COVID. They will not be able to cope with the fact that they sacrificed their kids for a few years of (pretend) normal, the guilt will be too much

Racist ideologues have long taught White people to be scared of peoples of color and antiracism. Racist ideologues have long taught White people that there can only be White supremacy or the domination of White people, erasing the possibility of racial equality, of multiracial democracy, of shared power. Racist ideologues have long told White people that Black challengers of White supremacy are secretly Black supremacists; that anti-slavery efforts and decolonial efforts and desegregation efforts and anti-apartheid efforts and antiracist efforts are actually “anti-White.” Standing on this history of misinformation, racist political operatives do not have to work too hard these days to get some White people to be scared of antiracist Black people like me. They do not have to work too hard to get some White people believing the lies that antiracist Black people like me are “dangerously divisive” “anti-White” “grifters.” The more political operatives get White people to fear and hate antiracist Black people like me, the easier it is to control White people. The easier it is to control White people, the easier it is to get them to support harmful policymakers who present themselves as defenders of White people, when in fact the policies of those politicians and executives are actually harming most White people (and, of course, many more peoples of color). Because when racist political operatives teach White people that the source of their struggles are not those policymakers—but peoples of color and antiracism—then White people can end up hating and attacking antiracist Black people like me and empowering those harmful policymakers. It is all a con to maintain power. These racist political operatives know what they are doing even if the White people they lie to, manipulate, and control do not.

We have to rethink this whole thing. From the ground up. From teacher accreditation to what a faculty of education looks like. From what gets taught to how teachers teach it. Everything is up for discussion at this point… #OntEd #TeachThroughEquity
Anyone have a spare Bluesky code for me? This app is turned beyond my capacity to accept ever-increasing crap for the tiny bit of useful info. That there are people who think @elonmusk is a genius is a testament to humanity's collective stupidity.
