My teen was telling me how much she learned from TV shows when she was little. She specifically mentioned “The cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That” and “Mr. Peabody and Sherman.”
Tons of shows that are both fun and educational. However, once kids turn ten, almost everything they get is garbage.

Something I’ve decided to do from now on is to only write reference letters for students I know very well… beyond the classroom. Example: they came to office hours, they were TAs for my courses, I saw them volunteering or helping their peers.

The second season of Man on the Inside is not about solving a case. It is about the importance of higher education. Particularly the arts and social sciences. Higher education not as a way to make more money but as a way to become a well rounded individual and make strong, long lasting connections.

Guy near Waterfront Station (Vancouver) is yelling stuff at people passing by. I got “Ándele, ándele!”
While I dislike being reduced to a stereotype, I need to acknowledge that I appreciate he picked one that correctly matches my ethnicity.
