Me, every time my 6 week old cries.
I have one question; will Mystery Files include cryptids?
musk is going to die in a Tesla explosion in 6 months after sticking his nose where it doesn't belong and we will never get a conclusive answer on whether it was a CIA car bomb or just a normal Tesla malfunction
Synopsis
When Lidia Parn is attacked outside of her dorm, a series of events are set into motion. Faced with the reality that she isn’t quite human, and threatened by supernatural entities, Lidia must choose between her human and vampire sides. However, this choice becomes more complicated when she develops feelings for the vampire hunter who offers her a chance to remain human, and the vampire who saved her life. Will she embrace her powers or forsake her supernatural heritage?
“Lidia?” I turn towards him and startle, finding him much closer. He presses his lips to mine gently and I surprise myself with my lack of hesitation to return the kiss.
His fingers are cool on my skin as he threads them through my hair. My heart is thundering against my ribs.
“Are you sure this isn't a bad idea?” I ask.
“I'm sure that it is,” he says. “I'm having a hard time caring right now.”
I don't know if I can keep teaching. This is not what I signed up for.
Good conversation turns me on. A connection between two people, a mental one first.

SOLUTION TO THE TEACHER SHORTAGE: Make the students have a more positive experience in school. And who does that responsibility fall on? Yup, you. The teacher.
Whaaaat? Really @newsday?
They completely missed the mark with why teachers (especially STEM, Sped, and ENL) are leaving and potential teachers aren’t coming in. And it’s very simple:
1️⃣Give teachers a decent wage that’s based on the hours they actually work as opposed to time spent in the classroom only. We are one of the only professions that doesn’t get overtime for staying late. That needs to change.
2️⃣(And this might be an unpopular opinion)... Get rid of Common Core. Stop enacting shitty roll-outs to new standards before they’ve been tested and teachers don’t have time to get proper training to what a good lesson with those standards looks like.
3️⃣Stop attacking our unions. Stop messing with our retirement. Stop trying to make it more difficult for us to love our jobs.
4️⃣ Decrease the politics in education. Why do we need to worry about the state of public education (OUR JOBS) every four years?
5️⃣Stop treating new teachers like shit. What is the turnover rate looking like these days (especially in those rural, inner city, and poverty stricken areas)? Yeah, there’s more teachers needed, but how about we try to also KEEP the ones we have?
6️⃣And probably the most important (in my opinion)- MAKE SCHOOLS SAFE AGAIN. I was just talking to my friends about this. We all know it sucks that students don’t feel safe in their learning environment. But what about the people who come to work every day wondering if today might be their last?
I. Did. Not. Sign. Up. For. This.
Stop acting like the teacher shortage is because teachers are going into the wrong grade levels. Start looking at how to make teaching an enticing career choice.
⏸What do you think? What is one thing that would make your job as a teacher just a little easier? For me? I’ll take a 5️⃣ and 6️⃣ combo!
