If you want to make it better for the people still here, find people doing good work and do good work with them, like tbfighters.org who are working to advocate for a world in which no one dies of a curable disease.

This is something I didn't learn until middle school, during a class outdoor party when I finally stopped pretending to like sports & just chose an activity for my own joy (sit on the sidewalk & draw a detailed chalk drawing). I was shocked when other students were interested and wanted to join in.

In grad school I used Read&Write Gold (an accessibility tool) to read my readings to me out loud when I had piles of reading to do. My eyes would get tired and painful after staring at screens too long, but hearing it read aloud really helped me process. I even used it to listen while on long drives

Highly recommend trying the music league app, it's a fun blend of "make everyone listen to the songs I love" and "discover new music I would never have tried otherwise". We have such a musically diverse group but they all have such good taste! some favs so far linked below

They finally installed some window units to cool things down until they can get us on the schedule for a replacement, so we are thankfully below 80 at last 🙌

A lot of assumptions baked in when we expect everyone is able to sit in a chair upright for hours on end without fidgeting or stretching to perform "paying attention" in a zoom square.
I am 3 hrs into a 6 hr meeting and if I didn't periodically shut off my video to rest, my back would be screaming
