Sounds reasonable. Enjoy the race and beer tomorrow as well 🍻

I wasn’t directing that at you, but okay. Have another drink.

I guess angry is better than dead. I’m angry too - at the people who still don’t take this seriously and who think green means everything is fine. lots of things I’ve missed out in this year but glad I’m still healthy through all this.

That is going to be a mistake.

I see this trend continuing for a few weeks for them.

~10,000 new cases again for Florida.

Throwback to last month's ignorance!

Texas is now closing bars and limiting restaurants again.

~9,000 new cases in a single day for Florida. Things are getting unsalvageable there. https://www.sun-sentinel.com/coronavirus/fl-ne-florida-coronavirus-deaths-cases-friday-june-25-20200626-irbfraoeebcj5nseafwla76tfa-story.html?fbclid=IwAR0lYpinioy0427DeMleaVKiB4iMujo1D1jGKRGh90mhuJecV1HXgtwnKKo

Yessir.

Rode my bike to get coffee this morning. Sat outside. Server had a mask. Hand sanitizer on table. Felt very comfortable.

Green = gone, right?

A lot to love in one photo...

It is crazy to me that the federal government has pretty much given up on this and testing still continues to be an issue in many states.

Fantastic. Looking forward to the end of summer PASR party.

Highest daily new confirmed case count in the US since the end of April. 36,000+ new cases today.

I can imagine it was a bad experience if it wiped the permanent smile off of your face.

It is hard to evaluate teachers based on how online learning went during all of this. I know very few people who teach completely online in higher ed and in k-12 it really isn't a thing. I know for myself I didn't perform up to my standards that I hold for myself and I imagine that a lot of others feel the same way. Equity and access becomes a challenge as well, especially for k-12. I had some students who didn't have stable internet access or hospitable home environments that made learning on their end incredibly difficult. Just so many factors for teachers to be successful during all of this. Hopefully things improve and allow for in person instruction or at least planning for online teaching in the fall for k-12. Anyway, back to the botched response to COVID....

Correct. The last class that I taught was one the worst of my life because I had to transition the entire course online in 2 weeks before the start of class and then figure out how to coordinate 12hour clinical days into an online environment. Fucking terrible. At least I have the rest of summer to try and get myself ready for the fall semester courses. I'm sure it was harder for k-12 teachers. At least I was still able to manage my time well and enjoy my hobbies, but it came with waking up early and staying up late so I can spend time outside during the day when possible. Anyway, yes, teachers have been roughed up through this.

Now you got my attention...

You mean to tell me the memes people post aren't accurate?!

Thanks for the tag. I'm teaching all of my courses online in the fall semester (for now), but I'll still be responsible for a group of students in various clinical settings in the hospital. Not too sure how that will work, but it is part of the job so what are you gonna do...
