Happy Book Birthday to CALL ME MOBY by @larskenseth.bsky.social 🎊 Illustrated in bold full color, this funny, charming riff on the Herman Melville classic, Moby-Dick, is at its heart a story about making friends and belonging – and finding those who accept you for who you are. tinyurl.com/4ssxtkp8

Ants are really amazing creatures. Their incredible strength, their collective mindset, the way they whisper uncomfortable truths in your ear while you sleep…

A military official stands behind a podium and says, β€œWe have no concrete idea what we did, what comes next, or what it means for the globe, but other than that it was a spectacular military success!”

I know this is silly and it’s just more evidence that I’m broken and should shut my mouth, but Rising Lion is a fantastic name for a power metal band and I can’t stop thinking about it.

This is what @wnyc.org and @npr.org need to be saying about the cuts to funding, not just save public radioβ€” the defunding is part of a broader plan. Point to it. Speak up, say it so we know WHY a free press is a danger to authoritarianism. Not why authoritarianism is bad for public radio.

If I was ever hunted for sport on an island, I’d do okay because I have one thing the other guy didn’t plan on... this big stick I found.

Technology has spoiled us. Just think: cavemen had to club their food. But if I want food, I just whack it with my OLED TV.

You can’t find me a table. Ok. I didn’t want to have to do this, but… I know the Ricola guy.

How can hope exist when this world’s job seems to be to suck you dry and spit you out? Sorry, I’m just down because I had to clean a whole window today.

When Susan Sarandon drinks too much, she transforms into Boozin’ Sarandon. Keg stands, truck honk sound effects, and weirdly conservative views.
