Say something nice… and reap the benefits!
Some of my favorite moments in this latest Improv Everywhere video, entitled “Say Something Nice”, are from 2:11-2:20. The kid is definitely one of the most adorable things I’ve ever seen, and plays directly to the Pixar-enamoured portion of my heart. But it’s the woman after that really stuck out to me…
Be a friend & save a friend!
What an awesome idea this is! If you witness a friend/peer in a potential overdose situation, you call for medical assistance and you are praised for doing the right thing, and potentially saving a life by not having to deal with prosecution. 
Heads up homophobic: The NBA is turning into the NB-GAY!
This past Sunday, May 15th, Rick Welts, the president and chief executive of the Phoenix Suns, came out to the world in this New York Times article. I encourage you all to read it as it talks about the coming out process of a man who works in one of the most stereotypically homophobic environments…
My take on a 10-Year-Old’s Advice to “Boys around the world”
I found this article and had to re-post it. This irate, truth-spitting, 10-year-old girl hits the nail on the head about the pain of societal gender norms. In her rant to “boys around the world” she tackles issues such as: what colors girls and boys “should” wear, who is allowed to wear nail polish, and what extracurricular activities boys and girls “should” play. 
AAAHH, MOVE! Your pace is ruining my life!
“Sidewalk rage” is a term that I know all too well. This Wall Street Journal article really describes something that I feel nearly every time I’m on a sidewalk with absent-minded pedestrians. I am not proud of this fact but, alas, I must own it…
The power of listening and trusting
This video is just awesome, props to Bobby McFarren for having the gusto to pull this off! I took an improv class recently taught by Jordan Klepper where he gave homework assignments (unusual practice for an improv class). For one of his assignments he challenged us to sit in a public place, take off our headphones, and just listen.
Born This Way
What an amazing blog this is! There is nothing more beautiful than people owning who they are and putting it out there for others to see and grow from.
Oh HELL no!
Improvisers use different parts of their brain!
Fascinating video! If you’re not watching TED talks, then you are really missing out!
