This Spring our school Tribes participated in an activity making Project Linus blankets that go to sick or terminally ill children. It was a wonderful activity, and we were glad to participate by donating blankets that our students prepared and tied!

@robertlufkinmd Poor gut health - contributes to all of these in one way or another

@Liv_Lanes Bathroom, right? That’s the most logical… 🤔

@DerekAshauer Pt2: …of canceling as intended. If you’re getting a fair amount of refund requests after renewal, review the communications to ensure it’s a clear & easy process for customers.

[Ainsley McDougal @techchix]

@DerekAshauer I’ve forgotten to cancel sometimes, but there are companies who deliberately obscure the cancellation process. Reveal email contains link to “cancel” but it goes to a page with no clear CTA. Or the action button is worded confusingly so that you keep services instead…

@RafalTomal Hurry up and wait… 🙄

Foggy morning view from my porch… it’s not that I love fall, so much as I love the beautiful possibilities of a mist-filled morning…

@mba_thug @davidgoggins My PF resolved when I got custom fit orthotics for my running shoes. My doctor has a machine that precisely measures your feet and sends off to get custom orthotics. Best decision ever! You can also get one for dress shoes at work.

@garyvee Tea. Weaned myself off coffee and now I have more energy. But I enjoy the warmth of tee in the morning. Usually mint or herbal teas. Centers my morning and starts w a routine.

To be clear, I'm not dismissing my personal responsibility to leave the world a better place (or to be a well informed citizen)... I believe the world can be changed in meaningful ways by individuals. Adding to my stress or frustration detracts from my ability to "be" the change.

[Ainsley McDougal @techchix]

My ability to watch the news is directly related to my daily fluctuating capacity to hear about the partisan intolerance & NOT be deeply affected by it. Some days, fine, tell me all the BS. Other days, #NotToday bc it's all too much. That's my "self care" right now.

This is why I hate websites (sometimes)- related to why social media content gets better views (less ads). Yellow box is article I’m trying to read on @thehomeedit -most of pg is ads. Monetization & user experience are impt. Very frustrating GUI. #DoBetter

As a measure of journalistic impact, the Pulitzer Prize holds significantly less prestige than the CIA plotting to murder you.
