My kid has been asking me questions nonstop about the Titanic, his latest fascination. He's keeping a research journal and has informed me that he gets all the credit for the research. Kid was born for that Academia Life

“Life is better when we leap together.” Kermit the Frog delivered a commencement speech at the University of Maryland on Thursday, the alma mater of his creator, Jim Henson. nyti.ms/4dwMuhQ

Cursed piano

Ok, but every Jon Klassen kids book is equal parts unhinged and a total banger. 10/10 in our house. Shout out to "This is Not My Hat" 🐠🐟🎩

Me, literally every morning, when I immediately doomscroll first thing even though I know I better

You’re reborn as a cartoon character. Who are you?

Cassocks are red Conclaves are dope Wake up babe we got a

Do you think the new Pope even said thank you to the cardinals?

Upon learning he was chosen, he promptly exclaimed, "holy buckets!"

Happy to announce I have become my father and now love watching This Old House

Hey Google, show me a clip of someone that hasn't raised a toddler before

Attempting to take non-douchebag headshots as a conductor today, wish me luck

Ok so has the met gala always just been the weirdest event ever or did it evolve over time

ok, basically doing my best to fix our patchy, mostly-weed lawn this summer, and people are like "oh yeah, now that you put seed down, water it 2-3 times per day" like thats a completely normal time commitment for GRASS. Insane, totally low-stakes stuff here rn.

Very convinced this guy just likes saying "robotaxis"

Eat less and eat garbage, you Poors, says NYT

absolutely the most unserious clowns ever. We paid over 20k in childcare this past year in a small-to-medium sized city in the midwest, and that was with one child in public school.

100% will be a real headline

Damn Poors, killing the economy again!

For those that don't work in enrollment, I can't understate how big of an issue this is, particularly to colleges with open enrollment. Just an impossible mountain of fake apps to sort through manually, while many of these departments are burnt out, understaffed, and often underpaid

i wonder if ‘tipping culture’ would improve at all with ren faire etiquette (tip receiver screaming HUZZAH TO THE TIPPER at ear-splitting volume)

My luke-warm take is that this was the best racing game on the N64 and probably one of the top sound tracks

Curious if the pro-natalism conference attendees had any thoughts on childcare costs in our country 🤔

President Trump and Republicans are trying to take away your healthcare to pay for tax cuts for millionaires. And over 1 million Wisconsinites on Medicaid, including kids, families, folks with disabilities, seniors, and so many others, will suffer because of it.

Ah, I see we've doubled down on the "stick it to the Poors" kind of economic strategy. Nice.

If I had 60 tabs open my brain would explode

2nd day of a higher ed tech conference, 2nd day someone on a stage assures me AI isn't trying to replace our jobs. Kind of weird they have to keep reiterating this

Just heard a university president insist at a panel discussion that AI will not replace people's jobs in higher ed but instead "work with you not replace you". And sir, of all the takes that is certainly one of them.

Donald Trump doesn't understand the importance or value of the arts. But the students at Equity Arc Pathways Orchestra won't be held down by his attempts to silence their instruments. Honored to hear them at the @chicagosymphony.bsky.social to kick off the Chicago Youth in Music Festival.

Flying @americanair.bsky.social for the first time in years and these seats are just insanely small. I'm 5'9" and a moderate build, and me and the dude next to me are practically on top of each other. Y'all suck send skeet

fuck yeah!! more good news for equity arc

Oh shit we're living The Star Wars

Look at them, walking around in their tuxedos like they own the place
