Oohhh do they call it “za?”

Just deleted my Substack account (I know, I should have done it sooner!) and looking for tips on how to replace it in my scrolling routine.

How many drinks when someone smuggled a monkey in a basketball?

Ugh good luck.

How to build a mosquito kill bucket Setting up a larva trap at home is an effective mosquito control method. This step-by-step guide will keep you itch-free all summer.

Same. I’m at the point in the summer where I wake up itching multiple times in the night. I did just make a mosquito dunk for my back patio and it seems to have helped a bit.

I heard a podcaster saying ChatGPT gave her a meal plan which included Zoodles and Ezekiel bread. Congratulations on discovering diet culture of the aughts I guess.

Feels like Kendall Roy talking about Vaulter:
"generations of artists & audiences are bypassing traditional institutions, smartphones have Balkanized fandoms even as they have made culture more widely accessible than ever" "with essays, new story forms, videos & experimentation with other platforms"

Hitting the post button once again to say how profoundly a betrayal of the core mission of education it is to see one of the two biggest teacher's unions in the US go in on AI.

As a postcolonial studies person who read Mahmoud Mamdani in grad school and a film dork with Monsoon Wedding in her Letterboxd top four, this Zohran win is very big for me personally. And also for NYC I suppose.

Really struggling as a Philadelphian with how much @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social makes me appreciate New York.

Me all week, turning down large social engagements: sorry, have a big trip coming up, laying low and trying not to get sick!

The people I’m traveling with: we have three birthday parties and a wedding this weekend!

Some of the best hours of my life, napping in the quiet car.

you guys they might be vampires

Any time I see a set of veneers o can’t help but picture the owner’s filed down baby vampire teeth underneath, so it would probably be over for me.

The enemy of my enemy still did two Nazi salutes.

That’s funny-I was going to say I feel the same about birdwatching. Everything else just shuts down for a couple hours.

grilled zucchini ribbons with pesto and white beans Ribbons of grilled lemony zucchini wind around white beans that have been rolled in a pesto vinaigrette, then finished with a blanket of grated parmesan is basically all I want to eat right now.

Not sure if the grilling makes this ineligible but so good: smittenkitchen.com/2018/07/gril...

These sound so good, thanks! 🥗

Any faves to share?

My primary memories from APUSH are two items from the textbook (circa 1998): an “o grab me” (embargo) political cartoon and the line “the farmers tickled the soil with a hoe.” Now that’s narrative history.

The book Planetwalker has a passage on dippers that has always stuck with me—would be a dream to see one!

“hello beautiful trifling-ass-bitches” is how i’m starting all work meetings from now on #Survivor48

I was about to ask where one might find such a product but then I realized I’d need at least 15 for the various chapsticks I have squirreled away in all the locations I keep chapstick.
