Who was it that said subtext is for cowards.

arguing with a guy at the amusement park I have 16 seconds to come up with each insult before our teacups pass each other again

New sign to tap firmly and often👇

I take comfort in the knowledge that all the Lego sets I can't afford will eventually live inside me as microplastics

The author's mom was in my high school class, and is one of the most deeply kind and principled people I've known. This story of a journey in faith is so rewarding to read, and exemplifies what (I think) Jesus would want us to do. The last paragraph made me cry. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

That's cool!

It’s good to love mathematics and also makeup. It’s good to read the classics and watch Muppet movies. It’s good to see Shakespeare plays and collect graphic novels. It’s good to be curious about the world and open to new things without self-imposed limitations.

I've been watching Muppet*Vision for 30 years but I'm still finding new details

If I may add to what said reps then do:

I feel like a Gonzo, but my best friends have literally sent me this post to say I'm Kermit.

Too real.

I feel this in my bones.

This is an important point I think. Opposition to Musk isn't based on philosophical or political views. It's between people who know when they're being conned and people who don't. Whether we still have a functioning country after this depends on how many of us fall for the wallet inspector gag

Never misses

Wait, so you're telling me raising prices, throwing away what makes the parks unique and special as compared to other corporate owned parks, and lower standards makes people less likely to want to return? Wild.

Great thread.

As a millennial with Gen X parents and Gen Z younger siblings, I really hope this is true. 😂

I sincerely don’t know why people aren’t physically stopping those dorks. Move shit. Lock doors. Lose the keys. Everyone switch seats. Turn off all the lights. Switch the signs on the elevator lobby. Make the settings all silly. Use a different language. Wear costumes. Fill rooms with balloons

really good 🧵 beneath the quote it's about (for me) employing a shared language to challenge values and assumptions, and to communicate to observers that there is more to this tradition and faith system that nationalism cannot conquer

This.

#SpaceshipEarthSunday or bust.

I'm not donating to your political party if all you're going to do is post. I can do that for free. I will donate if you have a project to resurrect FDR and give him a gun

Reminder: They're trying to demoralize you, and they're doing a great job of it. Part of resisting is making time for joy despite the attempts to make you feel this is not the time for it. Love your people. Dig the art that speaks to you. Go to the places where life flows into you. You deserve joy.

Lina Khan is an American hero.

damn sure does seem like as soon as an evil guy becomes the president he can immediately and unilaterally start doing a bunch of evil shit but when a supposedly non-evil guy becomes the president doing literally anything within the span of four years is actually the most difficult thing ever. weird

“Getting through” to for-profit pseudoscience proponents is not possible. Getting through to invested, committed believers is possible, but thanks to dissonance, rare and difficult; it generally requires years of patience and non-judgement. Most people aren’t in either category, on most topics…

The remote work debate was funny because it forced the question "Is a job something valuable you do or is it a place you go to be watched like daycare" and the answer for a lot of them was yeah it's the daycare thing now come on inside recess is over

My family growing up were not parade people at Disney. But we loved this parade and always made sure to see it. I have a clear memory of one of those huge puppets leaning over one of my brothers.

The president of the Aquarium of the Pacific sent out a letter and I think it's worth a read, with everything going on.

the internet was better when it was on a computer in your house and didn't consume our whole lives. time passed more slowly before there were endless distractions. you had space to read, space to think, space to grow bored and create something.

Maria’s rainbow tunnel is INCREDIBLE

Rest In Peace, David Lynch🌹

If there was a definitive piece of art defining this era, it has to be this.
