HS teacher & coach. Football, books, musicals, board games-I stink at all my hobbies but I’ve made my peace with that.
‘Tis the season-a lot of guys complaining about “lazy, entitled” college athletes are somehow also complaining about teams playing in “meaningless” bowl games between teams with 6-6 records….

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

I’m not too surprised by this. Which I guess makes sense-I was in the room when it happened, after all

Finding out someone is LIVID about the new NFL Kickoff rules is far more illuminating than any combination of 5 questions I could ever think to ask them.

Love our local csa-great food grown right in our community! And i love the baked-in honor system: “Grab 8 ears of corn on the way out”, “Get 3 pounds of squash yourself, the scale is over there.” It’s a beautiful thing.

Still annoyed that we are all just expected to accept the chasm between how “Wednesday” is spelled and pronounced

Super excited for this, and I love the way they are releasing to line up with holidays. This former DND dabbler and “all around town” bike rider is very happy!

Raise the floor. Don't just focus on the ceiling.

When it comes to performance, our average days matter more than our best.

It's easy to show up when everything is clicking

But what impacts our success more is being pretty good day after day

Make your okay days better.

I think this performance helped people see how talented mocap actors really are-amazing!
Andy Serkis delivered one of the most groundbreaking performances in cinema as Gollum/Sméagol. 🎬

This mirror scene from The Two Towers remains one of the most iconic moments in film history. 🙌

5 mental habits that work great—until they get in your way:

1) Grit—until quitting makes sense
2) Trying really hard—until it becomes a barrier to flow
3) Routine—until you get overly attached
4) Discipline—until you need a break
5) Self-monitoring—until it spoils fun of living

I’m not claiming to be a model of environmental purity, but this makes me mad.

Converting part of our yard to a meadow-love the way the tall grass sways and sighs in the breeze and the burst of color where the flowers pop up.

Labels work until they get in the way:

People aren’t homeless. They are experiencing homelessness.

People aren’t anxious or depressed. They are experiencing anxiety or depression.

People aren’t failures. They are experiencing failure.

What people ARE is people.

Coco Gauff telling the ball kids “you guys are awesome!” and that of course they can touch the cup. There are different levels of winning; opening space to lift up others is the top.
