SCORPION: take me across the river
FROG: if I do that, you'll sting me
S: if I sting you, we'll both drown
F: ok, that makes sense
*halfway across the river*
F: so?
S: so what?
F: sting me
S: what?
F: sting me, like you promised
S: no
F: sting me so we'll both drown
S: *crying* what is happening?

I'll be 'waiting' here. 🔫🗡️

Mario doesn’t actually move through the pipes. He is dismantled on entry and a new Mario is constructed at the exit.

This is also why there’s never any character development for him. Marios don’t persist.

I’m breaking up both TikTok and IG.
I was just demonetized and got an account warning for suggesting self reflection in the face of moral posturing. It’s long over due. Find me on substack or YouTube.

Just read it, you babies.

But this is a luxury game for luxury gamers

We survived without FB before it and we can survive without it now.

IIRC, if The Rapture really happens it’s honestly going to be great down here for a thousand years until everyone gets thrown into the lake of fire. A thousand years without these assholes! It’s actually a pretty good deal!

The privilege one must have to say something like this..

I hope you're thinking about how his wife no longer has to submit to him.

The Why and How of Us: An Inclusive Sex Ed Guide for Caregivers When your toddler asks, “Where do babies come from?” or your 7-year-old asks why their friend has two moms, it’s normal to feel unsure how to respond. Many of us didn’t grow up with healthy models of sex education, and the idea of having “the talk” can bring up awkwardness, fear, or uncertainty. Here’s the truth: one big talk isn’t enough.

Talking to kids about bodies, boundaries, & identity doesn’t have to be scary. Our new series offers age-appropriate, inclusive sex ed tips, resources, and book recommendations for kids ages 2–6 and up. Start the conversation early, safely, and confidently!

How We Homeschool: Blindness and Homeschooling Today I’m excited to share an interview with Nika, a veteran homeschooler and fellow admin at Strictly Secular + Inclusive Homeschool. Nika brings a wealth of experience and perspective to the homeschooling world, and I’m honored to highlight her family’s story here. At Rabbit Hole Learning, we believe every homeschool is unique—and those stories deserve to be told. If you’d like to share your own homeschooling journey in a future interview, I’d love to hear from you!

Meet Nika! In our first Interview with a Homeschooler we share how her family thrives with homeschooling while parenting blind. Every family finds their own path—and all are valid.

The Big Bang: Where Stardust to Storytellers Begins Every story has a beginning. For our universe, that beginning is the Big Bang — and it’s also where our Stardust to Storytellers Prehistory curriculum begins. Before there were dinosaurs, before Earth, before even time itself, there was… nothing. Then, 13.8 billion years ago, everything changed. Space stretched, time began, and tiny particles formed the foundation of stars, galaxies, planets, and eventually, us.

From Stardust to Storytellers! ✨ Dive into the Big Bang with playful, hands-on learning that sparks curiosity and wonder about the universe. Perfect for homeschoolers ready to explore the cosmos!

Introducing: Stardust to Storytellers Welcome to my new curriculum: Stardust to Storytellers. This is a secular, science-rooted curriculum series created for curious learners, and the grown-ups who learn alongside them. Beginning this week, I’ll be posting a new lesson every week (or so), starting with the birth of the universe and traveling through deep time toward early human societies. This is a project close to my heart and born from a love of big questions, storytelling and hands-on learning.

This is extremely cool. GOG is taking a stand against payment processors caving to fundamentalist religious groups and is offering a bunch of "banned" games for free.

Among the greatest promotional photos of all time are these for the 1990 television movie of IT, where it looks like a prestige legal drama about a firm of hot young lawyers and one associate who likes to dress up like a clown.
