The Art of Classroom Conversation Podcast Episode Β· The Broken Copier Β· 08/15/2025 Β· 1h 2m

Loved this conversation "talking shop" with another English teacher who cares very, very much about making conversations betterβ€”learned a lot that I'm going to use ASAP this year in my own room:

If Donald Trump negotiates an end to Putin's war on Ukraine without Ukraine having to cede territory, I'll nominate him for a Nobel Peace Prize myself. www.instagram.com/p/DNWgZq8Jh8V/

Funny that the science writer needed to use a story, like a story from religion which is a humanities, to prove his point that the sciences, which is a story of how the world works, have nothing to do with the humanities and stories.

They do it every time.

Also, I am afraid. I am very very afraid. And I think we should normalize fear.

Because when you are ashamed of your fear, you can’t act, or if you do act, you act to shame others.

And it is this last bit that I learned from being reared by someone who talks like Trump at a press conference.

Oh! This is fantastic! Thanks!

I am really going with a writer’s notebook here, but I’ve been struggling with how to bring it together with the argument work.

With fiction, I tend to really lean on characters as human beings having emotions and thoughts we have had, at least fundamentally. 1/2

When you have a family member who talks like Trump talks during a press conference, you know. Deep in your bones, you know. And it is a dangerous thing.

Thank you for this. As I teach AP Lit, I am plagued by the students who see the skill stuff as real school, and the aesthetic etc stuff as just me being a weird English teacher (which is true, but not the only true). And that comes down to assessment. I’m gonna try and change that this year.

Hypothesis: He doesn’t care if we know he is a sexual predator. He cares that The Files make clear that he is a loser transnational criminal loser grifter loser who purchased his loser way to playboy status.

What a loser.

AI Can’t Gaslight Me if I Write by Hand - Electric Literature There are all kinds of slow movements, slow food, slow families. Perhaps it’s time for slow writing

β€œComposing on the computer happens delightfully fast, but I wonder: if writing is a process of discovery and learning, then what discoveries did I lose by speeding up the process?”
