A busy life is not a symbol of status. It's a symptom of trying to do too much for too many people.

A full calendar brings a surplus of stress and a shortage of energy. Reflecting and relaxing should be top priorities.

Unscheduled time isn't wasted. It's invested in well-being.

On Thursday morning Pete Reed was killed in Bakhmut by Russian artillery fire as he was trying to save the lives of others. As I came out of Bakhmut that morning, we chatted and I filmed him before he went in. Medics like Pete are the unsung heroes of this brutal war.

It was great to see these lovely faces tonight, as we spent some time chatting about ways The Standard can grow and expand this school year. Excited to be working with Lillian, ajin vol. 5, pg 122, panel 4, Sarah Teague and Cortlynn Stark again :)

The faint hearted should not read this.

Yesterday, at our own risk, we left Mariupol under gunfire. We stayed overnight in a field in a gray zone. It was freezing outside, thank God we are alive. We are alive to scream that everyone who stayed in Mariupol needs help!

Mariupol. Direct strike of Russian troops at the maternity hospital. People, children are under the wreckage. Atrocity! How much longer will the world be an accomplice ignoring terror? Close the sky right now! Stop the killings! You have power but you seem to be losing humanity.

I like to show students how history is relevant today but I didn't need 1918 Flu, Great Depression/New Deal stimulus/relief, Hitler v. Poland, freezing Japanese assets, NATO, and peak Cold War all to be relevant this term.
