“Patriotism is not a short and frenzied outburst of emotion but the tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime.”
–Adlai Stevenson

It has gone beyond Trumpstink. The president of the United States is a madman. Clean out the mushroom beds from those old fallout shelters, we need them for their original purposes.
Stay upwind America.
And no matter how often he asks you, never, NEVER, pull his finger.
The school year is almost upon us. This week, like millions of teachers across the country, I've been cleaning, planning, organizing, writing, preparing to welcome our young people in to class next week. I've been buying my own supplies, patching up, making do, covering over, like thousands of budget-blasted teachers in Colorado.
I'm trying to prepare to explain Charlottesville and North Korea to kids already traumatized by the fear that Trump will take their grandpa or cousin or parent away next week in his quest to prove he's anti-immigrant.
So I won't be on here as much. This is good news for some of you!
But do spare a thought for the teachers in your neighborhood. Buy them some booze or chocolate . Walk their dogs, rub their feet. This is a tough time of year.
Rub a dog's foot!
Feet, ears, bellies, whatever….you know the drill.
I hope you and your students have a great year
Send me a note on a day off or weekend, M.J. We'll have lunch and I'll bring you something with chocolate and booze. I'm trying out a bourbon brownie recipe today .
Sounds yummy, cook. Keep the recipe handy for the next bout of troll nonsense you can't really reply to.
That's a caramel pecan bourbon brownie and they have been pronounced a success (actually, they said they were awful and they needed to be gobbled up so as not to poison some poor, small animal that might snack on the rubbish.
Thanks for taking on your form of public service.
The kids (usually) are all right … the teachers help them become all they can be.
After the revolution, teachers will get triple digit bonuses and generals will chip in from their private funds to buy cruise missiles. Until then, have a great semester.
Thanks for the well wishes, all of you.
In a small victory for American values and basic decency:
I'm sure the letters sent from members of this site played a part in their decision too!
I guess because they must think they have to prove that everyone associated with Trump [spits on the ground] is nearly just as completely fucking off-the-rocket bonkers as The Childling? . . .

. . . it looks like Jeff Sessions is going to turn out to be the lifetime civil-rights champion of this administration?
Don't tell the LGBT folks that.
