Understanding how we get information seems important, and not a typical college course
Also, I wishI’d taken something like weight training
Feminist/queer/Black studies to get a different perspective than you’ll find in most classes
Any history or art class you might like
And, you might not be going to Yale, but there’s a free Yale Psychology of Well Being class on Coursera I highly recommend

So many free courses to try this summer. The Science of Well-Being is a good starting point.

it’sa free course on Coursera (see link). As an adult I wish I’d seen it long ago. You’ll learn a lot about why many adults are unhappy (we want the wrong things), and some techniques and ideas to keep that from happening to you. It’s really useful. if it’s too long, I’m sure you can find summaries of it.
If you want to learn about cooking, Watch America’s Test Kitchen.

The occupation persists, the oppression persists, the torture persists.
The occupiers are psychotic and their work is never finished.
People who’ve paid attention won’t be surprised by this photo from Gaza.

I’m 50, I say because that makes me unusual in this context. I paid [redacted] for a ticket to the Eras Tour after listening to tswift for 3 weeks, and it was worth it. In second grade my teacher gave kids birthday spankings over her knee, and in sixth grade my teacher told my mom I hadn’t blossomed yet. I’m a good friend, mostly to people on the internet. I’m good at conversing with strangers. I’m usually the oldest person at the show but don’t feel like it. I’m good at being helpful. I’m sarcastic and funny and make myself laugh. I’m a good graphic designer and a conscientious driver. I’m a good photographer and I can successfully follow recipes. I don’t use my Peloton enough. I did a lot of caregiving for my mom for several years, and we enjoyed spending time together even if it was mostly in waiting rooms and my car. The fastest I ever ran a mile was eight minutes and six seconds. I drove the same car for 20 years and then replaced it with another one. I enjoy tipping, giving money to people on the street and Disneyland. I am a fan of baseball, Formula 1 racing and the Criterion Channel. I solve about 80% of New York Times crosswords. I take Prozac and Wellbutrin, and take Trazodone to sleep through the night. I wish I had a glassed in solarium so I could sleep in it on rainy nights. I would like to have a pet cat and a garage. I could happily live eating only cereal and fruit. I overshare on the internet and undershare elsewhere. ✌️💛
