Cameras do a similar thing to Calliope. It doesn't help that her most common angle points her rear towards the camera. Perspective is not her friend.
Does what we pay teachers matter? A 🧵. Teachers once took home salaries in line with workers in similar professions. Through the 80s and into the 90s, they paid a small penalty for choosing to teach; in 1993 the average salary of teachers was about 5% lower than that of others with college degrees.
How is this an actual timeline where I had to look further to figure out which current event this belongs to?
Both schools responded appropriately, in my opinion. But the fact that this happened to both of us in the same week and that the schools already have plans for how to respond and that our not being the target means somebody else was... This is not ok.
Here, there was a threat at a not-too-far-away school with the same initials. Where 14yo is, there were threats made towards other high schools in the area, but not his specifically.
14yo and I are at high schools in two different states this year. This week, both sent out messages saying that they were NOT the target of threats people may have heard about in social media.
Look at her wasting away right before your eyes.
Debating whether I should see if Calliope will wear a costume. We tried with Eurus one year, and that was a definite no!
I was in DC, and because they changed flight patterns after that, any air traffic caused panic for quite a while. What I remember most was driving on a nearly deserted Beltway that evening to pick up my wife who had been out of town and made it back as far as NoVa.
