Maybe instead of proficiency scales we should present support scales. "This is how I will support you." vs. "This is how I will grade you." The scale would define the teaching that supports the learning. We are supporters, not graders. Different has to be different.
We are about to enter the BBQ season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity. When a man volunteers to do the BBQ, the following chain of events is put into motion. Routine... (1) The woman buys the food. (2)…

Oooof, don’t usually get too affected by celebrity deaths buy this one hurts. Paul Auster was my favourite author for years. Met him at an event not so long ago and he was such a delight - funny, charming and incredibly tolerant of me hanging around like a little fanboy.

My big brother had to have some emergency abdominal surgery this afternoon. The first report I've heard from his girlfriend is that everything is going well. He's a good dude and I love him. Keep David in your thoughts if you would. Thank you.❤️
No matter what your personal thoughts are on abortion I need you to understand ALL women are under attack Anyone and I mean anyone could have a reproductive emergency Instead of getting the care you need you’ll be monitored and treated like a criminal Vote for #BidenHarris
Women should not be punished for accessing reproductive care — but the same presidential candidate who brags about overturning Roe is endorsing prosecutions of women who seek abortions. Make sure he gets nowhere near the White House again! For our health and freedoms, vote…

I’ve seen them educate themselves on history, political theory, social movements and real world social differences. I’ve seen teach-ins on antisemitism and anti-Jewish bias, the history of the Middle East, geopolitics, political resistance, poetry, music and art. (8/10)

The sad moment when a favourite bra turns inexplicably evil & starts being uncomfortable. Like a best friend suddenly turning against you.

Pathology report came back negative for cancer. They’re sending the samples to a tertiary lab to see if they can figure out what it is. Not out of the woods yet, but if the PET scan is clear, we can probably relax.
At hospital today and got great news... Cancer has gone... Massive massive relief
The level of compartmentalizing that any sane American with an empathetic bone in their body has to do right now is going to break us all
