This is Tellen. She went to work with her human today. The only agenda item on her calendar is dropping toys in the hallway until someone plays with her. 14/10

Do a PacMan version were the windows are the dots.

RIGHT ACROSS from the Friendship Heights station, the old Chadwick’s which is now Aura and wow a huge space with the longest bar I’ve seen in this area. It’s not busy at all and that’s a shame. Should be 2-3 deep at the bar by now. What a cool space. I met regular Liz, coming here since 1985.

I can’t tell if it’s Blade Runner or Logan‘s Run or A Clockwork Orange or even 2OO1: A Space Odyssey, but these Washington DC Metro stations are jaw-dropping sci-fi.

Post you from another era. 1977. Star Wars was our lives.

Arthur C. Clarke on Stanley Kubrick: “When I met Stanley for the first time, he had already absorbed an immense amount of science fact and science fiction, and was in some danger of believing in flying saucers; I felt I had just arrived in time to save him from this gruesome fate.”

Great win @wshcommanders.bsky.social 🥳

My Co-founder Josh Weinsch took this photo of his little daughter’s bike, which was in their driveway when they evacuated. Their neighborhood was vaporized.

Whiz Kids (1983) was one of my favorite shows as a kid. Way way ahead of its time, as exemplified by this 10 second scene. 🤣

Meanwhile, some jackass was illegally flying a drone over the Los Angeles Palisades Fire and the FAA reports it was struck by a firefighting aircraft. As if it isn’t dangerous enough for these crews…

Saw a video of nurses at an L.A. hospital, without power, work together as a team in the stairwell to make sure all the meal trays could travel up multiple floors in an assembly line fashion, so they could be delivered to patients.

Look for the helpers. youtu.be/-LGHtc_D328

Current mood with all that’s going on in LA. I feel so bad for everyone who have lost everything. 🥺

No better place to spend the night before a Federal holiday than Minetta Tavern, Washington DC.

Very thankful for the hard work of the firefighters under terrible conditions, and for the firefighters coming in now from out of state.

🥺

Personal Fire Update: 7pm-Evacuated Malibu so last-minute there small fires on both sides of the road as we approached PCH. 8:15 pm- Marilou, Trixie & I arrive at Chelsea’s house in Hollywood Most horrific fire since ‘93 🔥🔥STAY SAFE! 🙏 🔥🔥

🚨State of Emergency🚨 Tens of thousands of people have been ordered to evacuate as three massive, rapidly growing fires continue to blaze through regions of Southern California. An out-of-control fire in the Pacific Palisades area of Los Angeles is sweeping through approximately five football…

Everything you wanted to know about ancient Egypt and wanted to have a BLAST doing it. Including how hieroglyphics sound like to speak and the bent pyramid, which they were still figuring out how to build them right! Thank you Dr. Bestock! www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7oE...

The alleys of Washington DC are wonderful, but in the winter even more so.

The super cozy bar at Tabbard Inn in Washington DC. Fireplace is around the corner and lots of people huddled around it. I biked here and wiped out once in the snow but didn’t fall!

1980 Polo Ralph Lauren was WILD @dieworkwear.bsky.social

Sing your password to yourself when you set it; you’ll never forget it.

No don’t want the ‘Pro’ version of the computer, I want the ‘Amateur’, which doesn’t hide commands in obscure places, doesn’t want to keep updating everything all the time, and is on good speaking terms with the printer.

Colin Farrell thanking Carolina in craft services and her thoughtfulness in his #GoldenGlobes acceptance speech is your wholesome moment of the evening.

This storm is one of these rare beasts that comes into DC looking more and more impressive with every satellite image, radar scan and computer model update. For local perspective, I'm following the forecasts of my friends/former colleagues at cwg.live.

Sub vs dub debates are so lame. It literally doesn't affect how you watch something bc someone else watched it differently. It doesn't make you better bc you watch subbed. And it's a really weird thing to be elitist about.

i’m the kinda girl who will sit in the car until my favorite song ends.

Although not scientific at all, and I’m half joking, I consider this to be a living manifestation of the wave function. I do the same thing to make things appear, or make certain events happen. It’s wild.
