Nothing magnifies life — in the proper sense of the word, rooted in the Latin for “to make greater, to glorify” — more than the act of noticing its details, and nothing sanctifies it more: Kneeling to look at a lichen is a devotional act. We bless our own lives by recognizing and reverencing the details, the miniature marvels that make this improbable world what it is. https://t.co/glsftfClSk

Things that Schools should teach: 🧠

• Being wrong is not a bad thing.
• It's Okay to question what you have been taught.
• Grades aren't as valuable as skills.
• Understanding is more important than memorization.
• Making mistakes is Okay. Learn from your mistakes.

eight months of highly-politicized pandemic hysteria later, the average person has lost all trust in both the government and the media, and has almost no sense of how to properly assess current risk. our real disaster is information-based.

YES. I've told women my whole career DO NOT TAKE NOTES in meetings. Hold the information in your mind so it's dynamic. Pay attention to the body language in the room. Taking notes makes you a transcriber, not a participant.

Woke up today really angry and I have some things I'm going to get off my chest. I've been withdrawing from Twitter lately because the toxicity of this place is not good for me or probably the country but it's time to say some things regardless of how people react. 1/

Everything makes sense when you realize most people
1) live in cultural tribes
2) act in their own interest
3) have no underlying ideology
