What is the best time of day for studying?

(I've asked this previously but apparently not posted about it.)

Sorted by time, we can almost patch together a round-the-clock vigil for the class:

• definitely not afternoon
• 12:00am
• past midnight
• 3:45am
• night (4am)
• early morning (7am)
• 7:30am
• 8am
• morning
• 10am
• between lunch and dinner
• sun time
• 1pm
• afternoon
• 2
• after dinner
• evening
• 8pm
• honestly, 8pm-10pm
• 10:00pm - 10:05pm
• night
• late night

The big gaps in our coverage are the midafternoon --- apparently everyone's busy then and no one's studying, even though that's when all the office hours are? --- and midmorning, which makes sense, because that's during our lecture. The studying is compulsory then, but it's more learning and less revising.

Additional nods of the head go to "3:00pm, Monday" (the exact time I asked the question) and "carrot" (absurdism always welcome). Slanted eyes of judgement to "never lol".

This post's theme word is orexigenic (adj), "stimulating the appetite." Late night studying can be orexigenic, resulting in lots of snacking.

What song was most recently stuck in your head?

I take attendance by asking students a question.

What song was most recently stuck in your head? (previously 2017)

Most of these were new to me. I'm not in touch with the music scene. Some of them might as well be purely invented by smooshing words together. My apologies for misspellings, I have tried to interpolate letters of the Roman alphabet from handwriting scratches.

• Going Bad
• False Confidence
• Rome
• Truth Hurts
• Your Man - Josh Turner
• Autumn Breeze - Jida
• lose my mind
• Singh is King
• Feel Special - TWICE
• Sight and Shadow (Hiroyuki Sarrano + Gemie)
• Listen
• Just like you
• I Will
• All My Exes Live in Texas
• Good as Hell
• Plastic Love
• Beam - 88 rising
• Run Away - Ben Platt
• Listen.
• Surf
• Born in the USA
• Z3
• hotline bling
• staying alive
• crazy
• love my way

Then there were some opt-outs:

• *silence*
• The 7th mode of the melodic minor scale
• what does the fox say (re last lab)

This post's theme word is demit, "to give up an office or position; to dismiss; to resign." After several consecutive days of fox screeching, we demitted from the campsite and vowed never to return.
