My husband's therapist was talking about the evolutionary angst of winter and how humans need "enrichment time in their enclosures" to ward off depression, which of course isn't new, but the real zinger was when they said "you just have to ask yourself: what's my pumpkin full of ground beef?"

we are depriving generations of kids of the formative experience of stumbling upon some weird horny sci-fi or fantasy book that was absolutely not written for them, which is the kind of thing that makes reading feel exhilarating, like you are unlocking the grownup world’s fun secrets

Excellent interview of Prof. Jamil Zaki by @feltman.bsky.social today! In it, he advocates hopeful skepticism and explains how cynicism is not only toxic to individuals and communities, it's also a tool of the status quo. www.scientificamerican.com/podcast/epis...

This is a remarkable moment. Trump and Vance sit there in silence, as a bishop pleas with them to lean on their better angels and not follow through with their depraved campaign promises that target the LGBTQ+ community and immigrants. Never seen anything like this.

I just remembered my dream last night, which involved a reptile that looked like an iguana (but was the size and shape of a french bulldog) sitting on my head for like a full minute. I didn't know if this was playful or threatening behavior. Also: it was so hefty.
