Why is your wrist touching your keyboard?

funny

…buy an external keyboard

i invariably end up taking it off at my desk

Blue tape over the portion of either your watch or your laptop/desk that is making contact will help with the scuffing issue

I use one of those squishy pads under my wrists when I type. Also keeps the watch from scratching.

Either make sure your bracelet is not coming into contact with solid objects, or don’t worry about it.

What to do? What to do?

Came back to school in August with a cruise ship still sitting on my stage. We walked away from Anything Goes the day after the sitzprobe because of the quarantine. Still taking the wind out of my sails.

We are here now, but not able to stage shows. Logic says, "Do a radio show!" Just not sure I want to subject the kids to the emptiness of that performance style given the Zoom life they've been living. The production of it could be fun though.

Thoughts?

I love teaching art but am having to teach remotely to 1150 kids, k - 5. Have about 54 amazing elementary art teachers in my district that share SO much! I could retire (34 yrs), but just don’t want to because I love what I do! Feeling like my students aren’t getting what they should because I am struggling with Zoom, Microsoft, safe YouTube, bitmoji, embedding, downloads, editing, etc. Anyone else feeling this way?

Has anyone seen any unique places to find UX portfolios or post jobs other than the usual suspects?
Some UX Slack channels were doing well for a while but I definitely don’t see as much traction there. Meetups obviously came and went. Even the portfolio sites like Dribbble and Behance don’t seem that same.

Teachers, what is the first thing you do when you log off of Google Meet, Zoom, Teams? Go!
