I don’t think y'all understand how round of this post I really am. I scheduled to reblog it as one of my “Favorite Posts of 2019” just a couple hours after I created it back in February

thinking about when i was small, how my mom told me that pipe cleaners were just a tool until people started idly shaping things with them and it grew so popular that they were marketed as crafting materials. and that story about how the original frisbees were disposable pie plates that students flattened to throw. and how when i was a child i had a wooden mancala set with shiny, colorful stones, but on invention it was played with rocks and grooves dug into the dirt. and middle school, paper football and tic-tac-toe and mash and mad libs, games that just need pen and paper. and before that, games of pretend with pirates and princes and masked marauders. how at slumber parties after lights out, we used to whisper storytelling games, i say one sentence and you say the next. and shadow puppets. and the way all the kids in the neighborhood used to divide into teams and throw fallen pine cones at one another. and the floor is lava game, and the quiet game, and the games i play with my coworkers that are just words and retention. and "put a finger down" on the high school bus. and little girls clapping together, and how the first jump-rope was undoubtedly just a length of rope who knows how long ago, and how natural it is to play, how we seek play at every age and with any resources we have and with whatever time we can squeeze it into in a day. i'm not an anthropologist or a psychologist but i think after food and shelter and water and air what comes next is games and stories and laughter. i think that there is nothing -- not sex or fighting or forming unlikely bonds with animals -- there is nothing more human than to play.

There’s a few people in the notes saying “but people used to come to class in pajamas” and yes that’s true but like, not everyone feels comfortable doing that and there’s a lot of social pressure involved there.

Also something not mentioned in this tweet that I think is equally important: poor and rural students may not have the bandwidth to have their camera on all the time. My rural internet connection has absolutely ABYSMAL upload speeds, so while I can stream video coming in from someone else (as long as nobody else in the house is doing the same or downloading a large file or anything), I cannot actually do my own streaming because the connection chokes. I would much rather be able to, you know, just focus on the class material and not be distracted by making sure my camera isn’t blinking out every 30 seconds. One of these things is far more important to my education than the other.

I do not require my students to turn on their camera unless it’s group discussion time and they WANT to. We don’t know what anyone’s home Life or living situation is like, there’s no point of putting that kind of pressure on them

[zenathezee]

My teacher over the summer made the entire class time discussion, but the catch was you didn't have to have your camera on or even talk out loud, you could type in the chat. He would lead the discussions while keeping an eye on the chat and had that be a completely valid form of participating. It was the best discussion class I've ever had, because you could participate without pressure, people who normally wouldn't speak up felt comfortable typing, and if you had a thought from an earlier point you could mention it without disrupting the flow of the conversation. 10/10 would recommend to all teachers

[merry-kuroo]

So despite these feelings Mason keeps bringing up how Noah went to juvie? I think a lot of it has to do with Principal Jennings manipulation. He's had several years to guilt Mason for being Noah's friend and he probably kept bringing up often how Noah was in juvie, and that influenced Mason to keep being mean af to Noah once he came back.

It's really shitty.

'Please let us report Kingsley for sexual harassment like they text mc and don’t leave her alone it’s so creepy whether you are into her or not like they act like they own her she’s a student she has a life outside of her plus it’s finals week according to the latest chapter. They make me so uncomfortable...'

Uhhh MC is equally as guilty of harassment also whether you want her to be or not

Mason's dad is a piece of shit and doesnt deserve rights.

[bryceslahela]

i understand principal jennings is wrong but he was just putting his son first, he’s not a bad father

tw// mentions of abuse and police brutality

first of all, you can put your son first without ruining the life of anothers, especially in this situation. he clearly had power, they knew him by name and as soon as the emt said to the police officer that mason was the principal’s son, he immediately stopped hurting him and complimented him. he could have put a stop to what happened to noah, he purposefully didn’t.

principal jennings is nothing but a manipulative bastard who’s raised his son to think he’s better than other people (the way he treats noah and the way the jennings react when the idea of mc dating mason is brought up). he’s not only a bad father, in the way he constantly regulates his son’s food intake (not for health reasons) and also the way he doesn’t listen to his son’s opinions (the way he ignored the fact that mason didn’t want to go to the air-force academy and basically started guilt tripping him) but he’s also a bad person.

[makitokito]

Anon, never have kids

[bryceslahela]

i’m not gonna lie, i really didn’t like mason but this chapter really made me see him in a different light. the fact that he understands what he and his dad did was bad and he feels guilt.... yeah i don’t think he’s a bad person at all maybe just misguided. idk....

[makitokito]

Despite that he still continued to contribute to treating him like shit ever since he came back which there is no excuse for
