Answering questions at Boston College O’Neill Library
See a doctor, especially if you lost consciousness at all when you got it. Every case and every brain is different, but it will probably help to limit your exposure to things that make your brain work hard (light, noise, complex problem solving) for at least a few days. Here’s some detailed advice from the Mayo Clinic: https://mayocl.in/3Z83oxP. Hope you feel better soon.
Spend more time with people generally. Go new places, do things you enjoy. Worry less about what kinds of friends you’re making, and make more friends.
I know that these are times full of questions for many people. I am just a Wall and have no answers but I do know that no matter what, or how each person is feeling right now, being there for each other, taking time to listen and be kind, can help in the midst of any confusion. There will be numerous articles and publications analyzing the election, and that might provide you more information as well.
The will of the people is a concept that autocrats of all ages have clothed themselves in. My Roman historian helper also wants me to point out that the “order” Augustus established was based on killing most of the people who still remembered how the old Republic ran and outliving the rest.
Yes of course. Sometimes it’s just hard. If you need to talk to someone remember Counseling Services are here. bit.ly/BC-counseling
Happy means different things to different folks. For me, “Happy” is the hustle and bustle of a busy campus and the hugging feeling I get from every Post-it note.
You are very welcome! Our team is Circulation made it happen.
Ah! I wish I could, but being a wall, I can’t move from this spot. See the display on the other side of the lobby! I do hope everyone reading this goes and I can live vicariously. Details: events.bc.edu/event/pippin
One popular method is to use the Pomodoro technique. This means you set a timer for 25 minutes to do a task then take a short break. This approach keeps the engaged. Everyone’s brain works differently. It’s less about resisting procrastication than it is finding a way to get things done without too much stress.

As a wall, I enjoy the flavor of the post-it’s sticky back, and am using the drawing to try to imagine what such a thing tastes like to humans. Thank you!
Homeless facilities are inadequate in Massachusetts, and prisons aren’t full, so I understand your question. When Boston abruptly closed the Long Island homeless and recovery facilities in 2014, other homeless facilities in Boston were overwhelmed, and people who either couldn’t get in or couldn’t tolerate the crowds ended up tenting at Mass & Cass, which police have recently cleared out. Gov. Healy recently turned an old prison into an emergency homeless shelter, so there’s certainly a precedent: bit.ly/bscc-prison-homeless. But housing would be even better.
I don’t really have an opinion as I get my fiber from eating older messages, but my helper who’s typing this up says if you’re at an orchard you should always try the variety you’ve never heard of.
There are all kinds of places to go for trendy answers to this question, but pragmatically the best coding language is the one that solves a problem for you. Maybe it’s what the project you’re interested in uses, maybe it’s the one your boss requires. If you’re a solo developer, maybe it’s the one that there’s already a good ecosystem around.
It’s fascinating and some of my favorite pieces of media explore it. The Locked Tomb book series, the tv show Yellowjackets, Ethel Cain’s Preacher’s Daughter album. All amazing pieces of work if that’s a trope that interests you!
I understand why you don’t understand! Though it’s the basis of a lot of computer-based composition sounds it isn’t well documented. Its development seems to be attributed primarily to Trevor Wishart, and here’s his own explanation: bit.ly/wishart-wavesets, full of references to other texts you might find helpful.
…oh, baby, don’t hurt me… Dee Dee Halligan and Karin Hartmann-Eisenblätter certainly had a way with words!
I’m partial to themes: they give a group a way to select films that are related in some way. Example: films based on classic books, like Les Miserables, Little Women, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Being There, etc. Other themes: monsters, Christmas, the ocean, baseball… Agree on a theme and everyone picks one or two. Lots of films on movies.bc.edu!
If the world was ending, I’d be here and glad to see you.
19, though memes may differ.
You can check out an external DVD or BluRay drive and watch it on your laptop: bit.ly/bcl-technology-loans
That’s a great idea! I’ll tell my assistants to get on the pet program.
