Teaching tip: use a daily check-in (sub-tip: already be doing those) to ask students what song they have on repeat these days. Make a playlist of those songs. Listen while grading those students' work. ❤️ Let them support you through that slog.

Working at a public library this afternoon, I heard a kid talking about Shameless (with a plot synopsis) and a librarian respond ON THE SPOT with three recommendations of memoirs by women that tell similar stories, but are even cooler because they're true. Go librarians.

A neighbor who’s moving out put a rocking chair out on the curb. We don’t have space for it (and too many cat tails to risk it!), but I’m seriously considering borrowing it for the day to sit in the driveway and rock until I finish this grading…

I used to think people get boring as they grow up. Now I think at least 70% of youthful sociality is actually wanting to be alone, but not ALL alone FOREVER, so you socialize just enough to find your person to bring home and be antisocial with.

@dustychipura Yeah. If I don’t roll out of bed and straight into the shower to kickstart the routine, I lose hours + have less will power later in the day because I have to *decide* when to get dressed, etc. Easier for those things to be on autopilot.

What are y’all morning routines? With my #adhd, “chaos begets chaos”. If I don’t do a routine I’m less likely to have a well-structured day & follow thru on other things cause my perfectionist brain goes, “well you already didn’t do the first thing right!” & it feels harder.
