I expect to pass through life but once. If therefore, there be any kindness I can show, or any good thing I can do to any fellow being, let me do it now, and not defer or neglect it, as I shall not pass this way again. -William Penn

So long and thanks for all the fish!

@joshraclaw Slogging thru the original source material right now. Robert Jordan could have benefitted from a character limit. Tighten it up Bobby.

Finishing my final exam for theory and noticing some contradictory recommendations between established motivational theory (Keller) and a trauma- informed approach. Who’s writing about this? (Should I be? IS THIS HOW DISSERTATION TOPICS HAPPEN?)

Pleased to announce that Volume 13, Issue 2 of the International Journal of Designs for Learning (IJDL) is published! Visit bit.ly/IJDL13-2 to access all design cases in this issue. #instructionaldesign #designforlearning #learningdesign #design…lnkd.in/gjfrt_VF

When I was helping to design new faculty orientation for such amazing scholars as @kristenbreit and @didomenico_phd (with awesome faculty like @profgatchet) I never dreamed I’d be working towards a position among them one day…

@johnvettese @rossinphl Is #XPN90sAtoZ missed songs taking requests? Can we get Jimmie’s Chicken Shack?

Now that #XPN90sAtoZ is done, I'm putting the finishing touches on my #WTFXPN 'missed songs' playlist for tomorrow, and @rossinphl is not incorrect! Tomorrow night is going to bang, and the January edition of the show is off to a solid start! 🔥

@WXPNMikeV Can’t believe I have an 8 year old and she’s never heard The Dismemberment Plan. Taking care of that tonight.

Now that the #XPN90sAtoZ is over … what 90s album are your ears asking for? Mine:

@wxpnfm Total Songs Played: 2199. 2/1/99.

Now that our week-plus journey through the wide musical world of the #XPN90sAtoZ has come to an end, it's time to take stock. Who did we hear a lot of? *When* did we hear a lot of? What did we spend the most time listening to? Let's explore the stats. xpn.org/2022/12/08/the…

@steph_moore Been a year since we had to let St. Jimmy go and I’m not sure I’m ready for my next rescue kitty yet. But I am ready for pictures of other rescue kitties!!

Does Wilco also go to bed every night? Because I know they aren’t on top of this countdown but they are always on during my listening hours (aka my waking hours) #XPN90sAtoZ

Feels a little like the countdown is trying to redeem itself from “Billy Shakespeare wrote a whole bunch of sonnets” with this Radiohead/ Romeo and Juliet number #XPN90sAtoZ

@rudiedudie The search feature is failing me! Also six days in. My brain is probably to blame.

@steph_moore No opportunities for perpetuating microaggressions there 🙄

@rudiedudie Have we had Toad and the Wet Sprocket yet? (I mean. We should have. But have we?)

Knew it was a long shot but my Empire Records heart was hoping for “Sugar High” by Coyote Shivers— the Renee Zellweger cut. #XPN90sAtoZ

@drnoahglaser As someone who grew up post slide-rule, calculators were almost ubiquitously allowed. So I’m trying to wrap my head around projected perceived barriers (other than “I don’t like this”) and use cases for faculty. Thoughts?

If “feeling short of stable” wasn’t ever your AIM away message were you even a teenager in the late 90s? Such a moving story from @kristenkurtis ahead of my favorite song of all time #XPN90sAtoZ

@drnoahglaser I read an argument that humanities need to embrace #AI essays in the same way mathematics embraced the calculator. Still working thru that…

@stephenkallao “Lust for your skin”= sexy vampire vibes while “placenta falls to the floor” = OBGYN appointment gone wrong vibes. Not a contest here.
