I broke my wrist two months ago. Breaks in three places, so had it in a cast. But last time I had it checked and created, I passed out. I have a funny reaction to stress where my body *lowers* my heart rate rather than raising it.
Why are video game soundtracks so damn good for when I need to focus?
I've reached that point in the school holidays where I have completely forgotten how to teach. No idea. I just shout at them until they understand, right?

Anything that gets them thinking for themselves is automatically added to my classroom practice. 👍

This has to be one of my favourite quotes about art and reading, from @kyradavis.bsky.social . There's a freedom and honesty in holding both praise and condemnation in mind, simultaneously. Feels like what I imagine wisdom to be.

Reading Brideshead Revisited for the first time and damn this is good. Easily in my top 10 this year. Top 5, maybe.
I mean, I don't actually rank books. But if I did, it would be there.

In a world of machine slop, the simple connection between me and you (whoever you are) is preeminently divine.

#AlienEarth is delightfully slow but the media references are weird. Are we still watching the same films and listening to the same music in 100yrs?
I feel this is true of the way we treat AI but also kinda good that we do?
Yeah, sure. Paint the flag everywhere. Paint it as a symbol of anti-fascism. Paint it as a sign you're pro public services. It's a symbol of different backgrounds coming together as one nation.
Because that's what it means to be British, ladies and gents.
So I have a Nostr account and I cross post to it but... I don't really USE it. It's just there because I *think* it's probably a good idea to have it there. Just in case someone actually explains it to me.

I'm tempted to start posting through #Threads again but I hate the way third party collating apps like #Openvibe aren't allowed to access its feed. It means #ZombiePosting or putting the app back on my phone and fragmenting my social experience again.
