'Out Of Gas'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Not encouraging how, Jesse? Like, society is fucked? Or something else?
Yeah, just like that. I mean, they weren't like, "BATTEN DOWN THE HATCHES!" or anything, but they also weren't like, "This is obviously a six-week blip that is automagically gone now and all is well."
They (Homeland Security? I forget) issued a warning about the possibility of domestic "unrest" for the next little while, too,
Sara is positive for COVID. I am ... exhausted, and getting tested again later, but Ben and I have to quarantine for two weeks either way. I am also angry at her, guilty and ashamed, and just over everything in general.
Sorry to whine.
I just saw that about the domestic terrorism, Amy. Expires in April, from what I read. Because of the March 4 tarradiddle.
Sorry to hear about Sara, hope she comes through ok. Bummer about needing to quarantine, I hope you escape the actual virus
I guess it is not their job to comfort us with lies, Jesse. Alas.

Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear all of that.

It's easy to say, "You shouldn't be," but one feels what one feels, regardless.
Any form of "Make it didn't happen!" takes time to ebb away.
Ugh I'm so sorry, Amy.
My parents moved into their apartment in Frederick yesterday. It went pretty smoothly. I'm still dead tired and sad and cranky though.
My other thought is to have a Padlet, and have it shared on screen, maybe with some prompts, and have the students type simultaneously, and let them comment on other answers. Then if you see something interesting you can point it out and have the person share more....
I've started using Desmos, which does similar things, but it's specifically made for math. So far, hasn't done much to prompt verbal discussion, but at least I can grab some of their responses and put them on screen to discuss them.

Sorry, Amy.
Sorry about the sad, lisah. And the teaching woes, Hil.
Thanks, everyone.
