I have no voice. Like, really, very much almost none. So the implosion of the bird app is bad, because it seems like the universe is forcing me into silence on all sides...but not here? 😅 Pray for me 😂🤣 #NCTE22
Confession: I love making People Bingo sheets 😅 😂
Also, any #NCTE22 folx lurking around Mastodon? In case the bird site implodes, I may try cross-posting...unless, of course, my brain also implodes bc of cross-posting. 
Well, the addition of the capybara & following back friends means it's feeling slightly less lonely & depressing here 

Interactions feel non-existent here & sparse on the bird app & yes, I'm engaging less & not using hashtags well, but also I'm admittedly a little sad.  

But there are still emojis to bring me cheer 

Sharing some thoughts (en français) soon on The Great Resignation in American (teaching) contexts, with connections to my prior research on #teacher professional identity #education
I'm so very much less interesting on this platform 
Still navigating Mastodon while also limiting my social media presence altogether, but starting, slowly to (re)build community here (w/ emojis)   

Okay #academictwitter migrant friends, looking for #education #teachereducation #literacies folx. My research is on #AsianAmerican teachers & teachers of color recruitment, preparation, retention, identity, broadly. Also a #MotherScholar & interested in professional identity.

US/California based, but doing transnational collaborative work with colleagues in France. Voilà mon #introduction

PS. I love Mastodon emojis 

I strangely find it harder to share here w/ 10 followers than on the other platform w/ almost 10,000. But here's a #blogpost I wrote bc that's what I do often  https://professorhsieh.edublogs.org/2022/11/05/what-would-life-be-without-social-media/
