Best mental reset I’ve learned:

If your mind is loud — Write.

If your mind is empty — Read.

If your mind is racing — Walk.

If your mind is tired — Sleep.

If your mind is sharp — Build.

Most problems are just mismatched energy. Get the inputs right, the rest follows.

Group work has value, but over-relying on it can hide real learning gaps.
Some students do all the heavy lifting while others coast, participation becomes uneven, and true mastery is hard to measure.
Balance matters: collaboration and accountability.

Attention Beloved:

You weren’t too much.

They were just small.

You are the ocean.

They brought a teacup.

111 years ago on July 1, 1914, Franz Kafka wrote 4 words as his journal entry: “July 1. Too tired.”

The city of Tulsa, home to one of the most horrifying racial-terror massacres in U.S. history and the people who tried to cover it up, has announced a $105 million reparations package.
Tulsa announces reparations for the 1921 ‘Black Wall Street’ massacre
It took decades of research by historians and journalists — and reports by state and federal commissions — to uncover the violence that claimed more than 300 Black lives.

I have accepted that I, a social butterfly and a "I love talking to people" person, no longer like being around people or socially making conversation.

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act.

With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

Please talk with your loved ones about Ruby Bridges. Read “I Am Ruby Bridges” by Ruby Bridges 💛

The first Black child at an all-white public elementary school in Louisiana. She was only six-years-old when she made history marching into that school.

Ruby Bridges is living history. She's only 70!

I know this may come as a shock to some people, but majority voted for trump because he’s white.

So when policies change, egg prices soar, jobs decline, they will be unwaveringly loyal to his whiteness.

Yes it’s really that simple. Yes it’s really that deep.

"Against stupidity, we are defenseless."
D. Bonhoeffer, a German theologian and anti-Nazi dissident and in his 1943 work, "Letters and Papers from Prison," explored the dangers of stupidity, arguing that it is more dangerous than malice because stupid people are often unaware of their ignorance.
