Dog finds an injured parrot, who becomes obsessed with him and follows him around for cuddles.

We talked with their mom, Charlotte, about how heartbroken they both were when the parrot flew away, and the amazing thing that happened a few weeks later 💙

I’ve been asking friends and colleagues who already teach HMH (which I’ll be teaching too starting in September) for updates for a couple of years.

So many of them report that their students (and they, as teachers) loathe reading class now. So bleak. 🙁

I believe in public schools. Our kids & families deserve fully-funded public education.

Wednesday we're hosting a discussion on schools. Parents turn to charters when the system fails us—but they are not the solution we deserve. Join us to learn more!

This guy is defending his MA thesis in fucking refugee camp tent because Israel blew up every university in Gaza, along with 5500 students and 100 professors, and we have to waste precious energy hearing the US press talk about aggrieved zionists who “don’t feel safe on campus.”

New York Post New heights of hypocrisy. DINO who is quick to call everyone a communist now wants one of his critics fired? Sorry, but here in America, the people can call their elected leaders whatever they want without fear of reprisal. It's not fun, but it's the life we chose. Deal with it.

Republicans highlighted Politico's article today that IfNotNow and JVP, some of the groups behind campus protests, received financial support from Soros - through the Tides Foundation.

Guess who else gave to Tides? Woody Johnson, yeah the Trump guy. forward.com/fast-forward/6…

Today is ! Whether its Benny Polatseck saying reporters shouldn't be at the scene of breaking news or the @NYPDNews keeping reporters away so they can record their own propaganda films, you don't have to look far to find threats to a free press.

'Netanyahu hoped Hamas would reject the cease-fire offer. When it didn't, he turned to sabotage' by saying he would invade Rafah whether or not there was a deal with Hamas, 'torpedo[ing] Israel's last and best chance at bringing the hostages home.'

We regret cabinet decision to close Al Jazeera in Israel. A free & independent media is essential to ensuring transparency & accountability. Now, even more so given tight restrictions on reporting from Gaza. Freedom of expression is a key human right. We urge govt to overturn ban
