I'm doing it! Starting later this Fall, I'm teaching Baptiste Power yoga at a new studio nearby. Dust off the bandana, baby! IFKYK

I think about this show all the time. I can't get on the Jimmy Kimmel love train because I remember this show

NGL, I don't like "Yoga and ..." gimmicks. Yoga and goats, yoga and chocolate, yoga and and and and ..... but I understand it's a way to get people in the door. It's unfortunate that teachers need to come up with the gimmicks.
I draw the line at Yoga and Wine. This is unsettling.

Well, I did it. I sent in an application to teach at a new yoga studio. It's been 10 years since I've taught in a studio and I miss it terribly.

Imagine being a science professor and thinking the threat to the university is coming from humanities disciplines rather than fascists.

I was having extreme difficulty getting back into beast work-mode after some vacation & family time. ADHD + being relaxed = very little intrinsic motivation.

Today I was hit with an anxiety jolt abt big work task I didn't know about. Now I'm 😳

Sadly, I need anxiety for work motivation 🙃

He would have had a better chance at getting away if a) he was further away when he launched it (would have had more force too), and b) the car didn't block his get-away. I need to watch this another 20+ times for more analysis ....

Today I spoke to a student w. a green card who was worried about that documentary had "political content" because of what's happened to student activists at Columbia etc. The subject? Life in a particular Jersey City neighbourhood. Chilling effect is real 😩

This is my summer vibe. I’m detoxing from a stressful Spring term ❤️

I went to my first public yoga class since March 13, 2020. I was very nervous because I haven’t done a teacher-led class for a while. Just like riding a bike.

My body was like “where have you been?”
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🥲🥲🥲

Happy Juneteenth!

I'm dying. One thing Americans already know about Toronto is Rob Ford. On Netflix as of today.

He's not on Facebook but for a few ads/sponsorships (it seems). You can be assured that FB accounts are his.

Another piece of this is how Black voters in these JC wards may be experiencing gentrification, which Fulop is notoriously attached to. The Baraka campaign was def working hard for Black votes, but Fulop's record surely played a role. These wards are left out of JC's prosperity.

Well, we've white girlbossed our way here again 😩

FWIW, every person who showed up to canvass at Baraka HQ in my town yesterday was a Black woman over 40, including several who are from a local, over 40yr old Double Dutch rec group.

And yet again, Dem voters chose ... this ...
