Some neighborhoods just have a different rhythm at night.
Quiet streets, warm lights, and a feeling of home. ✨

But moments like this remind me that slowing down is just as important.

Balance isn’t about doing less — it’s about making room for what matters. 🍂

Life can be busy and loud, so I’ve learned to protect the quiet moments.

A warm light, a few pages of a book, and time to reflect… sometimes that’s all we need. ✨

So... who wants to do a panel at 2027 LAWCHA organized generally around the recomposition of the US working class during the last third of the 20th century? I'd love to present some of my recent research on the history of Distributive Workers District 65 during the 1970s & 1980s.

Workers standing at a rally at Astor Place in Manhattan in 1969, holding signs with demands in both English and Spanish.

I think we could try to falsify that premise

(Thankfully, logic tells us that doesn't necessarily invalidate the conclusion)

Administrators. That's where the money goes. Pedagogically unsound teaching tools like Chromebooks. That's where the money goes. Crumbling school infrastructure. That's where the money goes.

There’s been a puzzling trend over the last few decades: Adjusted for inflation, school funding has increased substantially, but teacher salaries have not. In recent years, real teacher pay has actually dipped as inflation surged.

Q&A: Why schools have more money, but teachers aren’t making more • Minnesota Reformer

More teachers have left the classroom in recent years and fewer young people aspire to become teachers.

I know great country music when I see it. This is not great or even good country music.

beep beep i'm a sheep @foxkvells.bsky.social · 9d

also the subtitle of the article is hilarious, bc I know what they're going for, but also just not being into country as a genre is a totally reasonable explanation for why some ppl haven't heard of this artist or this song that this article rejects out of hand

What Some Folks Really Mean When They Claim to Have Never Heard ‘Choosin’ Texas’
Proclaiming you're unfamiliar with Ella Langley's record-setting song has a lot in common with saying "I listen to anything but country"
