Sunday Planning time! Synch your calendars and check the meal plan & grocery list. Then, take a good hard look at what needs to get done this week. Most people are struggling with deep focus right now. Are there some lighter tasks you can frontload to remain productive?

For my non-pol-sci readers, POLITY is one of, if not the major, long-running data series on regime type and characteristics, with a special focus on institutional constraints and electoral design. They're a top source for credible cross-national data for the last 200 years. This is serious.

Self-Care Saturday! Time for a tiny bit of cleaning in this germ-infested season. Fill a mug 1/2 way with vinegar. Dunk your toothbrush in. Place both in the microwave for 2.5-3 min on high. Vinegar will disinfect your toothbrush & steam will loosen up gunk in the microwave. Wipe with a damp sponge.
