Five for Friday 250

Happy Friday,

Wrapping up the last work week of the year – can you believe it? – my intention is to enjoy it. To take in all the quiet, courtesy of a holiday season spent at home, and just enjoy this unique Christmas. I hope this weekend finds you with some time to yourself. Take it slow. Discover something to look forward to.

This weekend’s links:

Our longtime love affair with pigeons.

Another day, another study showing Vitamin D helps with alleviating covid-19 symptoms. Get outside and get some sunshine, people!

Cal Newport on how to stay productive on distracted days.

A 17th-century imagining of extra-terrestrial life.

This week’s lesson from the classics, Plutarch on Listening Well.

Currently reading: The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King by J.R.R. Tolkien

Have a lovely weekend.
