Introducing: Stardust toΒ 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.

Freedom To Buy Join the 48-hour giveaway and stand for the freedom to buy games.

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.

Hell’s Horoscopes for Homeschool Educators Aries (rain season) You fantasize about educating all of the world’s children without breaking a sweat but your own kids keep having to correct you. Taurus (still raining) I don’t know …

If you homeschool I wrote your horoscope: hailsatanhomeschool.org/2025/07/15/h...

If you say "I was homeschooled but my parents didn't teach me anything" then you weren't homeschooled, you were neglected. Let's not confuse those.

A moderately high stack of fifteen children's books sits on a butcher block counter. Some of the titles displayed are: "I Love You, Little Pookie", "Play", "Maddy the Alaskan Moose", "Treasure Island", "Belly Button Book!", "Arf! Buzz! Cluck!", "Baby Talk," two copies of "On the Night you Were Born," "My Very First Book of Shapes," "Picture Me Three Little Kittens", "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star", "Fiona the Hippo" and "If You're a Robot and You Know It."

Do you have a Savers in your area? Do you know that books are by 4, get the 5th free? And if you sign up for their email list, you will get a 30% off books and media coupon for this weekend. That works out to $1 per book on $1.79 titles. Get out there and distribute DEI!

No, that's the sewer clown that eats kids. Just stay away from places called "Derry".

If you don't mind filling out an application that makes you do a little thinking, come and join a homeschool community that will help keep you accountable and only recommend curriculum with standards. There might be some other goodies too.. discord.gg/DUSdTGsaMg

Probably not as impressive to the masses but I think I remember John Romero liking your tweet about owning a wig made from his hair. The ultimate gamer cred.

a photo grid of dolls with protest t-shirts and signs.

I need everyone on Normal People internet to know that American Girl Doll Instagram is doing doll protests today. There are tiny t-shirts and signs. AND THEN I realized it's a joint protest with the Barbie ppl, where there are EVEN TINIER SIGNS.

The Internet of today means having standards and banning trolls is seen as lacking in diversity of thought.
