In a perfect world FREX joins forces with Basketball NB and Soccer NB etc. For a large multi use indoor facility/field house for daily use + events. Giant parking lot to accommodate outdoor events and concerts in an ampitheatre. With room for hotels and restaurants. Outskirts of town. One can dream.

This is an awfully shooty ceasefire

Can we PLEASE teach civics in our school? I’m literally begging for it.

Dear Each, Any & Every Politician, I'm going to ignore any attack ad on an opponent, whether it's print or video. Instead of trashing them, give me specific reasons that prove you'll do a better job. I don't care what they can't do. I care what you *will* do.

The force is strong with this one.

Maniac Mansion and the original Duke Nukem.

Hollywood has lost the plot

Nature is amazing. 🤩

Amen! Waiting lists are long to get kids mental health care. And once teens age out, they lose access to many programs that aren’t offered to (or covered for) adults. Private therapy is $$$$$ but it’s essential for many people. Plus medication. Think times are tight? Imagine paying thousands more.

That bounce!!

Name your top 15 TV shows. Reverse alphabetical because the 1st is great but not well known! X Company The West Wing Stargate SG-1 Simpsons Sesame Street My So-Called Life MASH Handmaid’s Tale Greys Anatomy Golden Girls Gilmore Girls Friends Frazier Call the Midwife Battlestar Galactica (reboot)

The new Banksy statue is brilliant social commentary.

Never have 4 people more wished they were still in the deepest, darkest recesses of outer space.

Love this. 🩷 When you encounter joy in public spaces and activities, it’s really noticeable. We need to cultivate more of that as part of the structure of our neighbourhoods - not just for occasional events. Also: big fan here of ‘third spaces’ - kids & youth need to feel welcome.

So much of @jaypitter.bsky.social’s work on public joy resonates with my experience of and thinking about public play, including around everyday life, participation, entitlements (or rights), the collective, and repair.

I made $4.25 (or maybe it was $4.75) working at Sam the Record Man in St. John’s in 1997 (Avalon Mall). That job put me through university. Loved it! ❤️🎵

David Cochrane: "I never stop to be shocked at how shocked the Americans are at the logical consequences of their actions, 'Can you believe they're not selling our booze after we disrupted all of their core industries?'"

NOT THE LOOK BACK FOR APPROVAL OMG

if i’m being optimistic, maybe having the lived experience of the average american school child will inject some human empathy into the coverage this chattering class of news influencers provides to the public. won’t happen, but it’s fun to imagine nice things sometimes.

Everyone immediately assuming that an attempt on the President is staged is probably not a sign of a healthy democracy.

"Three young Barn Owls looking out of the quatrefoil of a church in North Norfolk."

Honestly, it’s exhausting to have such dumb, corrupt, incompetent, reckless and evil people currently running the country. What a sad expression of the failure of education and morality in a country that once could pride itself on advancing talented and capable people.

This photo should be on the front page of every single newspaper in America today.

And for $20 million you can buy the naming rights to "wife of LA Clippers owner Steve Balmer"

No hesitation. Love it. ❤️❤️❤️

In a nutshell. 😊

"They were so lucky I was looking" Ummm no. Stopping in time for a child running onto the street is not heroic/lucky, it is your goddamn obligation as a driver. Cost of entry. Kids are allowed to be unpredictable, you are not.

This is Stella. She wanted company this morning, so she jumped up for pets. #Caturday She has now tired of company and moved to the other couch, for a better view of the window. 🙂

This is a well-documented pattern in medical research and reflects systemic gender bias in pain assessment and treatment.👇

The older I get, the more I understand why our parents were so nostalgic for their childhood years.

July 21 1935: The Führer orders a new reception hall and ballroom to "entertain foreign diplomats" at the Chancellery. Underneath the dance floor is an air raid shelter. A 2nd deeper bunker is built next to this in 1944, where he would spend his last days as the Reich collapsed.

Zohran Mamdani said he's going to start taxing rich people who buy luxury housing in NYC but don't actually live in there, and the former CEO of Twitter/X called it "actually one of the scariest things I have ever seen."

Pope Leo XIV: Jesus told us, blessed are the peacemakers. But woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, or political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.

Does anybody remember when teen pregnancy was a huge boogeyman of the right? They had all these purity dances and whatnot? Pepperidge Farms remembers.
