Rare Feral Teenager Sighting: 15-year-old daughter willingly out of her room, laughing and clearly having a good time.

When asked, she replies, “I’m just so funny.”

Stay calm. Back away slowly. Avoid “mom” jokes or excessive enthusiasm. Observe this majestic moment in silence.

Gotta love ppl who work in book shops

Anyone else wake up extra early with plans to read in quiet and then spend hours doomscrolling?

Just me? Sure. I buy that.

More than 1.1 million international students were enrolled at U.S. colleges and universities in 23/24 (IIE, 2024). International students bring vibrancy, diversity, and innovation to our campuses. My hope is for them to continue to thrive.

New plan for the rest of 2024. Start rewatching The West Wing and learn to…
Write like Sam.
Argue like Toby.
Speak like CJ.
Lobby like Josh.
Focus like Leo.
Lead like Bartlet.
