The news anchor Lisa LaFlamme was a household name in Canada for decades. But she was unceremoniously dismissed last year, not long after she stopped dyeing her hair — setting off debates across the country about sexism, ageism and going gray. nyti.ms/3SbSxxA
ALT Quote next to a photo of Lisa LaFlamme reads: “The most comments I ever received were not for months in Baghdad or Afghanistan, or any story, but when I let my hair grow gray — bar none.” Photo by Ian Willms for The New York Times.

This company retreat should have been a meeting.
This meeting should have been an email.
This email should have been a call.
This call should have been a text.
This text should have been a quiet moment where you rub your temples, sigh, and decide it's not worth the effort.

Tip for students going off to college: study 80s/90s pop culture. Particularly Ferris Beuller, Princess Bride, Simpsons seasons 2-5. Your gen x/early millennial profs will try to connect with you through these, and will be confused/sad when you stare blankly at them. Not joking.
