Huh, cool. Well, I could definitely use some additional income. Any tips for getting accepted? I mean, obviously, write something persuasive. But is there anything in particular that they're looking for?

@noxy@kitty.town

Is this legit?

I could totally do this, I just don't want to get sucked into a pyramid scheme or something lol.

Personal pet peeve- when reading through guides for teaching elementary students, and the text assumes that the average teacher is female by using female pronouns.

Ex: "Exploring reasoning is also extremely important for the teacher as a formative assessment tool. It helps her understand each student’s strengths and weaknesses, content knowledge, reasoning strategies and misconceptions."

Heckin' yummy dinner!

It was a team effort:
Jake (little bro) did the brussel sprouts & pasta
I threw together the salad (goat cheese, persimmons, & pomegranate dressing)
Mom boiled the carrots/zucchinis.

Okay I've been literally playing this game for an hour. My number sense is... well, hopefully improving.

It's amazing how much teaching in elementary school makes you realize how many basic skills you've forgotten or skipped growing up.

Ooh cool, like an art and wine festival-kinda-thingie?

That sounds like a lot of fun! I'm glad you three had a nice time.

I mean yeah, that's why I posted the safety pins pic in the first place. It's bad and passive allyship.

I don't know the paperclips game tho, so that reference is lost on me.

@thefishcrow@cybre.space

this hatred is rational and I completely agree.

(Even in an office supplies context I prefer staples. More permanent, but less messy to sift through.)

Anyone played the 24 game before? We played it during math stations in my 3rd grade classroom last week. It makes me realize how much I need to practice my basic arithmetic lol.

Found this pic of me at work. It was just randomly in a folder??

I mean nothing says "ally" like passively wearing the iridescent safety pin you bought for $2.17 but okay.

Update: Old guy stopped trying to talk to me and started talking to the barista again.

Hot tip, guys: Don't corner staff who are literally a captive audience to you. It's a gross look.

@somekindofcrow

It's more annoying than harmful, I think. I came to the cafe so I could ignore ppl, not chat with old dudes. :/

"Watcha working on there, young lady"

I spoke too soon about not being bothered when I go out.

@Efi

Easily/with enough cis and masculine privilege to be ignored mostly. I'm not proud of it, it's just a thing.

@Efi

That's debatable.

For better or for worse (usually, better in terms of safety, worse in terms of validation) I get read as a cis butch lesbian, and living in the bay area that means I move through the world fairly easily.
