Threatening to punish people (algorithmically) who don't pay up.
Declaring certain things (talk of Mastodon) out of bounds.
Centering everything on one person and his whims.

Finally getting around to making my #introduction. I’m a 5th grader teacher who loves to make American History exciting for my students. I’m also a mom to two kids we adopted from Russia 17 years ago, and two rescue pups. I look forward to connecting with and learning from people here.
