Have You Seen….? (Vol. 11)

We’re all feeling it. Whether it’s tension over the election or just that creeping feeling of running out of time in the semester, there’s a little bit of stress going around. So rather than trying to get you to focus on anything academic this week, I’m going to share with you my recently discovered favorite distractions.

Have you seen…

this coloring book for academics?

Or how about

this “Election Distractor” website put out by the New York Times?

It may be silly, but I think this holds great potential for self-soothing moments. Whether it’s watching 30 seconds of my life pass or burning anything I can describe with text, once I’m bored with it I can click on the great big “Next” button and find my next distraction!

Have you found something to while away your hours as you countdown to the end of classes?
Have you found an interesting article or helpful video that your colleagues should be made aware of?

Let us know and we’ll feature it in an upcoming “Have you seen…?”
