So far, I’ve learned enough to have a really interesting conversation with a three-year-old child.

#MrRogers crew mocked him behind his back, but in private, they poured their hearts out—to his puppets. Tough guys shared fears and struggles with the likes of King Friday, and Fred, ever kind, gave advice. Over time, the mockery faded, replaced by quiet respect.

Wi-Fi doesn’t actually stand for anything—it’s just a catchy brand name. Fun fact: wireless networking started in the 1970s in Hawaii with ALOHAnet, which connected the islands using UHF radio waves. It was the first step toward the Wi-Fi we know today.

I think this is the most #GenX song ever. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JGB...

#pickleball is a double phallic like Bangkok or Peter O'Toole

If you’re wondering if there’s anywhere left in this world where things are peaceful and organized; where people treat each other with respect, where a woman can walk alone at 4am and feel perfectly safe, that place is Japan. As an American is startling how much better it is.

Lightning actually does strike twice.

The Japanese are better at cooking eggs than the French.

I could be overreacting but a 12hour flight with no WiFi seems like a human rights violation.

There needs to be a new word for when you're listening to a song on a streaming service, and at the end of that song, in your head, you start hearing the next song on the record, but it's never that song, and it throws you off. Songterruption? Phantomtrack?

Young Frankenstein was great but I also loved her in Close Encounters of the Third Kind and Mr. Mom. "If you get somebody laughing - and then stick in a point about something important - they'll remember it." #TeriGarr

Dogs typically sleep 12-14 hours a day, but puppies and seniors may need 18+ hours. 🐶💤 Rest is key for their health, so don't be surprised if your pup naps a lot!

My Spanish tutor (28) had never heard of #HappyDays. I mean I totally get it but I'm at a point where half the people I speak with now have no idea about the popular culture I've experienced. Again I don't have the expectation but damn... oof. #thefonz

Just found out to make yogurt you put some yogurt in a crock pot with a bunch of milk and 8 hours later you have a bunch of yogurt. It's dead simple.

They are bringing back #HeavyMetalMagazine Nice!

61% of Americans want a third political party, feeling underrepresented by the two-party system (Gallup Sept 2023). The demand is there. You're not throwing your vote away. Most countries have multiple parties. #ThirdParty #USPolitics #GreenParty

I told a young guy a Home Depot today that he looked like #RankingRoger. I asked if he had heard of #TheEnglishBeat. He said no. I asked if he knew what ska music is. He drew a blank. I understand it was before his time, but I find the sonic amnesia of young people super sad.

Let's do the time warp again but not in the way where we forget that things were different. #rockyhorror #timcurry #rockyhorrorpictureshow

Here Comes the Sun is perfection. #beatles
