Spoiled by ordering from Amazon. Tracking a Temu order is crazy. You mean I ordered 4 days ago and my order is just now getting to the airport to fly to the U.S??? C'mon already!

I’m not built for the kind of stress people get themselves into online. #peace ✌🏽 #love❤️ #wellness

I am proud to be a sociologist. We study Critical Race Theory, postcolonialism, imperialism, racism, sexism, feminism, patriarchy, homophobia, transphobia, social movements, change, politics, power, culture... All the things that make us who we are and need to know to make positive social change.

Had one of those amazing professor moments today when you get to guide a student into having a breakthrough in how they see the world. Explaining to a student that RBF doesn't mean Really Big Feet really changed their perspective about some of things. #AcademicSky #HigherEd

Right now most of my writing is a project about spirituality. This week I am exploring aspects of fasting and my experiences with it, as well as scientific and religious background. If you have any interesting sources send them my way please. #AcademicSky #Writing #Spirituality #Health #Wellness

Finally breaking in my new stick. 😎 #billiards

I don't understand ranting about nonsense on local Facebook pages. There are lots of productive things we could be doing in our communities instead.

It's a big world out there. This guy knows a lot of the best ways to experience it. #travel

I now own a pool cue and my own darts. I never imagined those hobbies would come from sobriety. What a strange life this is.

💔 An unimaginable loss. No child should feel alone in their pain. Let’s be the ones who check in, listen, and remind each other that we are loved. Kindness, compassion, and support can save lives. #mentalhealth #wellness

How old do you have to be to start carrying around Werther's Original in your pocket? Asking for a middle aged friend.

If aging is the price of having lived, then let me pay it gladly, with gratitude for every moment that has shaped me. May we all grow old with grace, surrounded by those who remind us that even as seasons change, love remains. #Wellness #Gratitude #Meditation

Trying Huberman's sauna protocol for HGH release. Two 30 minute sessions down. Two more coming later. My body needs some healing! Here is some light reading to learn about sauna benefits for health and performance.

Starting this Monday with gratitude: for health, for lessons learned, for the people who make life brighter. Even small joys matter! #Wellness #Meditation

Got to celebrate my girls turning 25 this year! Love a quick trip up north! #snowboarding

My Saturday morning boxing classes are complete. 💪🏽🥊Time for a mini road trip to Michigan! Hope you’re all having a great weekend!

I could swear Cher seemed old when this song came out and I was in elementary school. Now it appears I am way older than her. Hmmmm.🤔 #SNL #SNL50

Post Nirvana is the band I didn't know I needed! 🤘 #SNL #SNL50

Watching Arcade Fire on SNL 50th anniversary concert! Nothing against them, I love their music. But they look like what I imagine a band would look like if my 3 year old granddaughter dressed them. She would say they are beautiful!!! Lol

Loving this SNL 50 year anniversary concert!

I'm extremely disappointed about the attention I gave LinkedIn the last 14 years or so. It has never done anything for me. It has not even been the slightest bit helpful. People try to sell me their services, I don't need, on there. That's about it.

Cage the Elephant is so underrated!!! This one makes me feel nostalgic for some reason. #MusicSky

Busy day but just got that workout in. Enjoying my post workout snack. #nutrition #fitness

There was no need for all this. Lol

Have we ruined childhood forever? | https://buff.ly/3EcXZND Join @jonathanhaidt.bsky.social , Katherine Birbalsingh, and Emily Edlynn as they discuss if replacing genuine play and exploration of the natural world being replaced by rule-governed fun is profoundly damaging. #socsky

You deserve to be LOVED. by family, by friends, by significant others. You deserve it all!

Made some crusts with sourdough discard, then made pizzas in the air fryer by just adding some sauce, feta, and lots of veggies. What an easy treat! #nutrition #guthealth

I get to hit the gym for a workout and then teach my "old timers" boxing class this morning. Hope you are having a blessed weekend so far!

Brilliant things happen in calm minds. Be calm. You're brilliant. #meditation #wellness #mindfulness

Me: Talking to someone about a possible bathroom renovation. My nosy ass phone:

Pro tip: Don’t feel like working out? Text like 7 or 8 people to see if they want to work out with you. When some say yes now you’re obligated. Shout out to the 5 guys who came in to get work on 45 minutes notice! (One of them not pictured) #workout #boxing #FitnessSky

Starting over with attempting a #meditation practice. Anyone have Spotify or Youtube recommendations for 5 -10 minutes of focus and/or breathwork? #wellness #mentalhealth
