We've Got A Diem to Carpe

The misadventures of a late-20something in NYC.  Brand new school librarian. Former teacher. #education is where my heart is. Oh, and I have a rescue pug who is 99% of this blog.

“It’s still National Library Week. You should be especially nice to a librarian today, or tomorrow. Sometime this week, anyway. Probably the librarians would like tea. Or chocolates. Or a reliable source of funding.”

Last night the rescue that saved Torro, Bullies 2 The Rescue, helped Valiant Animal Rescue save 109 dogs that were kept in horrible conditions. If you have some spare change to throw their way, they need it. Bullies 2 The Rescue, also needs any help they can get because people keep beiNG ASSHOLES TO THEIR DOGS. WE TALKED ABOUT THIS. STOP DOING IT. Anyways, your money, throw it at these people. Thank you. You’re looking very pretty today, btw.

This lion’s name is Bonedigger and he was born with a crippling bone disease, so the keepers introduced three dachshunds to give him companionship; Abby, Bullet and Milo.

They’re his pride now!

This is the only fucking thing I care about, do you hear me.

I find a lack of joy on tumblr.  Since they killed our tag, this place just bums me out.  It’s not the people; I still love my educhums. I miss the content.  

But that joy has shifted to Facebook, so there’s that.

Just logged in to Tumblr for the first time in over a month. I don’t really feel like there’s much here anymore.

NYC Educhums meet up

Luke (Hisnamewasbeanni) and Diz (lovethroughamachine) are visiting NYC in December and we'd love to meet up with Educhums!

Hey Educhums from NYC and surrounding areas!

We are organising a meetup for Saturday 9th of December.  I’m doing it early because you’re all grown ups with lives, responsibilities and jobs, so I know things get busy towards the end of the year!

Please respond and we can organise something fantastic :)

@strange-new-classrooms @specialmaisy @artedish @adiemtocarpe (and the rest of you!!! please reblog!)

COME HANG OUT WITH US

a lesson on nonbinary individuals and why we feel the way we do about numerous basic things, such as the mere fact of our existence and our pronouns.

[stilesisbiles]

As a nonbinary bisexual I relate to this on multiple levels.

Is it true that english Teachers just show movies or give a reading period because they are lazy or just don't want to teach?

Is it true that I’ve given a work day in one class because I’m up to my eyeballs in 50 research papers I need to grade from other class?  Yes.

Is it true that I’ve given a class a free day because it’s deadline day for the newspaper and I have one page not laid out at all and I just found out I have to replace a story on another because my admin nixed it? Yes.

Is it true I’ve shown a movie in one class because I came to school with a low grade fever and I can’t get a sub anyway, and I have to be at school since my other class is in the midst of a Very Important Project that I have to guide them on? Yes.

Is it true I’ve given a free period of reading to one class because it’s opening night of the play and two props broke? Yes?

If is it true you sound like a grade-A asshole when you ask questions like this because you obviously know nothing about the job?  Yes.

“THE OPERA” - Anatol’s electrifying entrance.

This is one of many clips I made as a tribute to Comet on its last week. The clip is taken from one of the cast interviews that is up on the Great Comet YouTube channel. The audio is added by me, sometimes synchronized, sometimes not. I tried my best.

[adiemtocarpe]

Always Anatole.

"You need to buy a boat." Facebook message from an 11-years-ago exboyfriend

No other messages. No context.

Any guesses?
