with the caveat that I'll believe anything spoken in a thick enough scottish accent... I believe this bicycle philosopher man is spitting truth

Big fan of take your child to work day. All these people on the train, at grand central, on the street, and in the office are full of tender gestures, tender voices. Everyone’s having a Big Day. It’s good.

On and on. Apr 10 2018

Put me in the RIB to do donuts around the capsule for half an hour next time. I'm RIB certified. I can be trusted with the NASA RIB.

Republicans voted to repeal Obamacare dozens of times knowing it would fail. Every single vote generated headlines. They understood that official government action gets media coverage in a way that "messaging" doesn't. Dems keep not learning this.

Innovation Square Rochester NY r/brutalism

I have mostly not followed the Artemis mission, but today of all days it was pretty cool to visit the (replica) Apollo 8 capsule and its AUTHENTIC recovery hook on the USS Yorktown.

Hell yeah it’s happening here too

The idea of buying something that's $400 with all the Details squished into a 2" column makes me physically ill. It needs to go horizontal so I can see if it's Right

Paris in the spring time: recommended

Jump scare from the airline emailing about “Your upcoming trip to Newark.” That’s not what I’m doing. That’s never what I’m doing.

"Air Force Communications Command," slide 21 of 24 [gallery]

Took my kids to serendipity3 which turned out to be an insane disney simulacrum of … something. Was surprised to find that it started as a real little spot and got famous and different over time. Anyway I’ve seen a few people at grand central wearing Veselka merch lately. Worrying.

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t

“This is a beautifully rendered painting, and genuinely affecting in person”

Seeing a box of tea called "Irish Afternoon" in the office kitchen

Finally did a beginners curling session and it was every bit as quirky and charming as you might expect. Always cool to peek inside a whole little world.

Wish I could have captured the big ConEd guy this morning in a viz vest and hard hat shouting into an open manhole "… I'm not yelling, I just talk loud"

Pretty cool photo series, I'm surprised I didn't see a flurry of "here's me" posts when kottke posted it last week: kottke.org/26/01/people... From the photographer: martinroemers.com/homo-mobilis...

James Bond ski sequence but the part where he gets into his boots and does all the clasps is shot in excruciating real time

This exact thing happened to me last night when I watched it with my kids.

“Abolish ICE” - ICE www.nytimes.com/2026/01/26/u...

Yemen Cuisine on Court and Atlantic in Brooklyn. Amazing bread, ful, hummus, and little cups of lamb broth. Something about them just better than anywhere else I’ve had them. Also a cool little hole in the wall but the food was just magic.

I feel like the 43rd St Public Morgue is an under-discussed part of NYC street culture.

Arugula really is the funniest part of the culture war. Spicy, flavorful, nickname is “Rocket.” It’s literally Lettuce for Men.

Went to a protest/memorial yesterday with my family and felt a little better. Now I’m scrolling through the news and my eyes are rolling into my head like a shark.

I don't like the death squads

plutocratic gangster state

✅ Best script logo in the game ✅ Best imperial unit ✅ Best SI unit

IN THIS HOUSE WE PRACTICE MAINTENANCE AND CARE (taping stuff together)

The road to the train station is lined with thick stands of reeds that are strongly backlit in the morning at this time of year and they are so beautiful they are a danger to myself and others

You don’t actually need a Chair+ subscription to unlock soft mode for the cushion fibres. You can flash linux to the chair through the hidden microSD slot in the front left leg and unlock it for free

A lot to like here, not least the method acting on the part of the logo

"are you enjoying duo mobile" does a hamburger enjoy being made of quarks. does a fish enjoy linear time. does the mountain enjoy the first taste of a cup of hot chocolate when you get back to the ski lodge. your question means nothing to me. i couldn't enjoy duo mobile even if i tried

Due to my adult enrichment activity for indoor dads, I have been listening more carefully and have cracked the (extremely obvious) code for how the guitars work in The Strokes. Stay tuned for more updates from 2005.

Love to sit at the train station scrolling instagram for seven minutes while my back window defrosts and blithely undo every other eco conscious act in my life

Having, again, vanilla ice cream with a little molasses on it and it is insanely good and crazy that this is not a standard ice cream shop thing

I thought this was my college dorm at first

This gets a big Yes from me

Checked in on the old timeline and was greeted by the trump/mamdani clips, the pope rave, and the secretary of hhs affixing eels to his person.

(spending 9 billion dollars to make a robot say "i have always loved you") hard times create strong men

I am terrible at all board games but I did these a while ago and they look cool. Finally got some white gel pens so I can do the other colors.

the only problem with young people today is that they never had to mentally negotiate the difference btwn a video game's box/booklet art and the sprites they would play as on the screen. i understood what Plato was talking about before i ever even heard of him thanks to DRAGON WARRIOR

Losing to my wife at Letterpress, which brings back fond memories of losing to my wife at Letterpress on an iPhone 4S.
