Thought I might try keeping some little chocolate bars in my office for when students are sad. But apparently I am not the kind of responsible adult who can be left alone in a room with a giant bag of candy.

If there's one thing I know how to do, it's buy books. Who are the small presses that just got screwed by SPD closing and would benefit from some direct sales?

On Mother’s Day, I’m thinking about the Palestinian woman who comforted a boy who lost his mother by saying, “We are all your mothers.”
