#Edusky “100pc…🙄” UK educators, you see what happens when a kid doesn’t get offered a knowledge-rich curriculum!!? I’m 150pc sure that he’d be fine with exploratory learning and skills-based provision
“100%”
(1/2) 37 years ago today I submitted my proposal for the World Wide Web 🎂. Today, Rosemary & I spoke with students in New Orleans at Walter Isaacson's Digital History Class @tulaneu.bsky.social. I was asked, as I often am, if I ever could have foreseen where we’d be today. I could not.
Good lord.
“Now class, the drawing pin on my chair was not funny. I want the person who placed it there to own up; if they do I’ll go easy on you; if you don’t, the whole class is staying in for detention! And I mean it… I’m not messing about here! Someone had better own up soon…!!!”
In a world where information is difficult to trust, I trust @carolecadwalla.bsky.social to inform me and her newsletter is both terrifying and illuminating

Magnificent album! Brings back memories of my son who, aged seven back then, would stomp about in his mum’s high-heeled boots singing ‘Hello space boy’ just cos David did. God I miss him (David, not the son, as I see him all the time!)
…and when he came out again, he was a changed man…
I find that astonishing. Not only is it terribly inaccurate, it is awful for workload. To like it is bonkers
… and you should never buy grebenes from a mohel

'Mum' on BBC iPlayer is absolutely tremendous telly. Funny, sad and tender, it's an hilariously brilliant observation of the frailties and emotional fragility of families. How had it passed me by, and why don't more people know about it!? Grateful thanks to @michaelt1979.bsky.social for recommending
Picked up on a recommendation of yours recently, Mum. Incredible telly. Not finished it yet so no spoilers
Welcome back Milky Way, I’ve missed you xx #highlandskies
This is straight up the best fess I’ve read in ages!!
Sorry Jamie, upon rereading, I can hear the facetiousness and nobbish sense of superiority in my comment, but it made me laugh to think it still worked as a statement 🤷
Well, I guess they are, as you’d need to buy one in order to attend!
Guided by ecologists Tony Whitbread & Matt Phelps, you'll explore how Knepp’s rewilding principles can be adapted to smaller landscapes. The workshop includes a walking safari across Knepp’s wild herds & habitats & a case study packed with practical pointers – & a delicious lunch with Knepp produce!
Lab 25: neg'd changes to policy = 'climbdown' vs Tory 19: MPs sacked by 'Boris' for 'defiance'. As a voter, I much prefer this messy discursive type of politics over the macho bullshit of the last 10 years! www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cj...

When I was younger, on the long walk home from the train station after work each night, I'd pretend that I was in a race with other walkers from the same train. They were usually the same people, so I'd imagine full-on repeat grudge races, complete with David Coleman commentary
16 Ronnies, and a couple of Erics
You could maybify a suggestication to this particole tesco employee that he/she/they could improvify their spelling before pretendicating to be someone
