Today seems like a really good day to tell your friends to stop using Spotify because they invest in AI drone strikes and love ICE 👍

It's important to write hand-written letters to your friends when you need to send them something. Ideally while doing a bit. Maybe you're a union soldier, separated from your ladylove. Maybe a hot air balloon operator.

When a student is really into Star Wars but also wants to play as a cat, you have to help them with a name, so you dub them “Obi-Meow Kenobi.”

Happy Exploding Whale Day for those who celebrate :)

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

Scooby I am as white as a hotel towel, and the closest thing to Mexican I am was a single all inclusive resort stay in Cancun.
