I am 5 blocks away from the Englert Theater, and this is the line to see Bernie Sanders. The theater seats 750. I doubt I'm getting in. #FlipCongress2026

An open packet of Sandwich Bread, made by Malpani's Bake-lite. The packet is half-yellow and half transparent, with green blotches all over

I want to meet the guy who thought this was a good design for bread packaging

I've had that issue too. I changed the name on my CV because it will help people find the school easier.

My confession is that because of my social anxiety I made my first calls when I knew the offices would be closed. It still counts! Leave a message! Tell them your address and name and then say what you want to say! Anxious introverts united!

Once again, Teen Vogue is on it.

I saw this one too. I find it very interesting that this is no uninformed undergrad, but a 2nd time around PhD candidate.

Remind me to introduce you to Christina.

Ever wondered why walking around museums is weirdly tiring? At normal speed our legs act like pendulums, swinging forward from the hip & saving us a huge amount of energy. In "museum shuffle" our muscles must do ALL the work of constant readjustment. So cake in the cafe is scientifically justified 🥳
