Bright side of covid isolation: I get to attend @BoozAllen’s Unstoppable Together Summit! Excited for the opening keynote and sessions to follow over the next few days.
Just found out that in 2005 Netflix’s CEO told investors on a call that Blockbuster “had thrown everything at them except the kitchen sink” and then Blockbuster shipped them an ACTUAL kitchen sink the next day
"On the day after Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, we remember that Jesus wasn’t afraid to make a little noise and get into some trouble with the authorities of his day... John Lewis and Martin Luther King, Jr. took note of his example. We should, too." https://t.co/CX53BmIQz5
Excited to pause today to listen and reflect on the conversation between @NDLaw's G. Marcus Cole & Justice Alan Page. Make some time at Noon EST to watch the livestream: https://t.co/lsodKLZyde
Even when not 100% focused on a task, taking quick breaks to chat with friends in the library/colleagues at their desks always gave me new inspiration & ideas. Been missing it since March 😔

For decades, Dr. Jan Sanders and her husband, Leo McWilliams, have been the unofficial parents of many of Notre Dame’s Black students and Dreamers during Thanksgiving. This year, the house will be mostly empty. https://t.co/nrbjUn3LSG

Here's another! In 2000, the avg. human attn. span was 12 or 13 seconds. In 2013 (presumably due to our increased reliance on technology), it was reduced to 8 seconds. For context, a gold fish has an attn. span of 9 seconds.
Every so often in my readings for classes I come across something that makes me think for a particularly long time. Here's one of those things from today, from a National Intelligence Council report:
"Owing to rapid urbanization in the developing world, the volume of urban construction for housing, office space, and transport services over the next 40 years could roughly equal the entire volume of such construction to date in world history."
Not being able to attend mass in-person tonight at the dorm where I lived for 2.5 years kind of stings, but it's the right call to protect the community. ND's daily Gospel reflections help me keep things in perspective, so just wanted to share in case they might benefit you too!
"We can never be irreparably broken as families, as a country, or as a planet, as long as we remain focused, faithful and connected to one another though the Son of God and his promises." https://t.co/6lvhXf4KmC
