As always, lots of great shows happening, but I just have to self-promo the one I'm involved with (I wrote a 10 minute play and it's getting performed next weekend!) #lancaster #theater

Oh man I love this

Utah used to be a model for housing first, it is infuriating how far we have fallen

Aasimar/Tiefling is always going to be the most dynamic of duos. I don't even think it's a religious symbology thing, tho it might have something to do with the fact that their players are prolly working something out

Mike Johnson is in a long-term relationship with the Men in Black brain wiper

The Mamdani's aunt thing is so dumb I feel dumb for engaging with it but some ppl seem to think he was describing a nonrelative. & yes, lots of people do that and it's normal. But he was talking about a 2nd cousin. Whens the last time u heard someone say, 'my 2nd cousin'? Everyone calls them aunts.

Image of the mechanical ladder outside the Louvre Text below says WENN'S MAL WIEDER SCHNELL GEHEN MUSS (When you need to move fast) Underneath is more German text which translates as "The Böcker Agilo transports your treasures weighing up to 400kg at 42m/min - quiet as a whisper."

The German company that makes the mechanical ladder used in the Louvre heist has used the image to advertise, with the text 'When you need to move fast'

I am bad at social media because I don't like hurting people's feelings but I also almost exclusively have thoughts that would hurt people's feelings

Also, look, I hate to post hate about local theater, but whoever it was at the Fulton theatre deciding that Hyde's part in Confrontation should be pre-recorded and played as a video on the backdrop screen...Dishonor upon you

Jekyll and Hyde the musical is all about duality: good (Frank Wildhorn's melodies) vs. evil (Frank Wildhorn's lyrics).

Elizabeth Jacobs, PhD @elizabethjacobs.bsky.social I'm an epidemiologist. Sewage systems are sexy. Dosco Jones @doscojones.bsky.social I'm an engineer. Sewage systems are sexy.

I’m a sewage system. I also have a great personality.

I don't purchase terrain for my #D&D games, I just steal. Don't leave your water bottle unattended at my table because I will turn it into a tower and balance 1-5 minis on the top of it.

A polydactylic cat walks into a bar.
It says, "I would like, in pursuance of my desire to have a drink, to buy a drink."
The barman asks, "Why the unnecessary extra clause?"

There's 0 things cool about using an LLM to do D&D prep, but I'm using Microsoft Excel to do D&D prep, and that might be cool

Tweet From Obama mentioning my firing from the Washington post. Wirh a photo of me

The last political column I was allowed to write in the @washingtonpost.com was a criticism of Obama.

His people took issue with my piece, but we were respectful.

Now he is tweeting in support of me.

This is how free political speech and respect for debate *actually works*.

Or used to work.

Mr. Trash Wheel 😍

Playing how to train your dragon in orchestra this semester and yes, it is exactly as fun to play as it sounds

If birds judged human intelligence like people judge bird intelligence, it would be people that can do bird calls, versus everyone else

Morning swim was good except that I forgot to pack conditioner so now I'm going to just look like the Bride of Frankenstein all day I guess

There is an individual here in the library with a water bottle that, when they drink from it, makes cartoon dolphin noises, and how am I supposed to concentrate in that type of environment

Once I finish the like 15 books that I started 2 months ago and am now 2/3 of the way through, it's over for you people

An article from the Journal of Low Temperature Physics entitled "A theory of temperature-dependent energy levels: Thermodynamic properties of He 11"

I read this title wrong

The thing about accepting Newsom's depravity against trans people or the homeless on the grounds of "Yeah, that's bad, but we have to beat Trump or it'll be worse." is that by accepting it, you mark it as acceptable, both within your mind and in the larger world around you.
