#lrt I tried the last two summers to find a social team, especially for people who are absolutely rubbish at sport and honestly struggled to find info on ANYTHING that wasn't grade level stuff. Big opportunity to improve there imo for local clubs.

Not an exaggeration to say I'm both a writer and an English teacher b/c of Lloyd Alexander. My 4th grade teacher read to us from The Book of Three every day after lunch, and I was hooked. I wrote to him that year, and he not only replied, he took a 9-year-old's question seriously. (More in alt text)

I got my 10th Covid booster yesterday and the pharmacist said I’m the only young patient she knows who’s kept up to date with vaccines.
Just a friendly reminder that anyone over 30 can get boosted every 6 months in NZ. Every bit helps!

#USpol ofc but the point absolutely stands in broader terms too
a lot of people seem to be interpreting this as "don't say anything remotely negative in your calls". it is actually entirely possible to express anger without taking out that anger on someone with zero power to fix the thing you're angry about!
Y’all, don’t be fucking dicks to staffers, it is neither nice nor particularly productive
