There’s a kid who I care about who asked me to write a letter for college applications. Her request included this line: You’re one of the people that have been a constant as long as I can remember, and one of the adults that is just as cool now as they were when I was a kid. Best feeling ever.

Yesterday my 8year-old stood up to a bully and then today calmly advocated for his friends to an adult who didn’t handle the situation properly and I’m so ridiculously proud.

The way tech is trying to shove AI down our throats is making me even more disinterested and disdainful.

Every businessy guy I have ever met who finds out about Crash Course tells me that we're not just decreasing our revenue by not building a paywalled business, we're also decreasing our impact. This is wrong...and this video shows why. complexly.info/CCcoin25-6

Did you know the potato chip was invented in the 1850s by a chef named George Crum specifically to annoy a customer who complained that his potatoes were sliced too thin? It’s true! So let this be a reminder that great things are possible through dedication to your craft and unquenchable spite.

Andrew Ruddell shared photos of this awesome LEGO model of the Old North Church he made! It even has two working lanterns in the steeple!

if dems want messaging help, stop telling people you're "fighting back." it sounds like you're being mugged. call off the podcaster search, take your ridiculous money pile and try opening some food banks and free clinics. hurricanes are coming and the feds have no plan. looks like an opening to me.

This was one mod my favorite things to work on last year. youtu.be/UwzEucu-Pmg?...

Took my kids to see the Minecraft movie and it totally ruled. Most fun I’ve had in a long time.
