If I could ignore Donald Trump’s bonkers Truth Social posts for the last two years, I can ignore his bonkers tweets too. The only people who decide whether we pay attention to him is us.

Is there a “Bird by Bird” -ish book for music composition? Or a “Zen in the Art of Writing”? Who are the Bradburys and Lamotts of the composition world?

My CV is a beautifully organized list of my past and present employment experience and now I’m spending an hour typing the same information into your badly designed job application website: a memoir.

It’s day 3 of trucker protests in #Ottawa. We all wish the pandemic was over. But I don’t support the disregard for the ppl who live & work in OTT and don’t deserve this. Ongoing city gridlock, harassment, hatred and intimidation isn’t going to change our reality. Please #GoHome

Progress: forward or onward movement towards a destination
Things I’ve learned from teaching Music Appreciation, Part 1: - Students absolutely will not read the syllabus, even when I tell them 296 times that all the info they need is in there. - Some students just aren’t going to do any assignments, and there’s nothing I can do about it.

Cont. - Having a punitive attendance policy is a complete waste of time, and directly leads to low grades. - We need to figure out better ways to teach college students how to write “academically” (huge air quotes) while still accepting (celebrating?!) dialectical differences.

"To make life a little better for people less fortunate than you. That's what I think a meaningful life is. One lives not just for oneself, but for one's community." Hear some of the most memorable words from Ruth Bader Ginsburg's speeches over the years. cnn.it/2Efw9lt
