Tell people you love them when you feel it, let them know they're appreciated when they do things for you. Don't take for granted that people just know, that stuff is too important to go unsaid! It's so important to say it in plain and direct language.

In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice. KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond. His reply was a doozy.

Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech — rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath? Character isn't something you tell people about. It's something you live.

This is disability visibility. Mamdani listened. He didn’t pander or talk over the disabled journalist. He acknowledged his concerns and gave real responses about how he plans to fix them. 1 in 4 Americans has a disability, it’s a huge number of voters. Don’t ignore us!

HOW TO FEEL ALIVE

this game has officially gone too long

Happy Halloween! Did a lil' closet cosplay of Haida from Aggretsuko! Bonus pic of my spouse as Todd from Bojack Horseman!

I think about this a lot.

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

we are surrounded by unrecognized visionaries

Finally, I can post this video I've been hanging on to since somebody sent it to me.

So the good news is, I'm feeling an increase in motivation for the first time in a while! The bad news is, it's very much tied to a repeating "I need to be better" and like a Bing Bong Airlines plane, I've never seen that kind of motivation reach its destination.

A lot of people are rightfully arguing that they need to stay on Twitter because their livelihoods depend on it, and that's understandable, but I also see that the majority of those who stay there are not making an effort to drive their audience elsewhere. ➡️ What you can do: 🧵1/5

I’m petrified about today’s science news. Genetically modifying crabs to have cheetah genes? This could go sideways fast.

Realised it was the PS1's 30th anniversary in like two weeks, and it did me immense psychic damage.

It’s gonna get so weird that people are gonna hafta talk about how weird it is.

When we moved into this house a couple years ago, my very kind neighbor was like “oh FYI my husband is a concert cellist so if it’s ever too loud or disturbing you or anything, please just let us know.” You know what, hasn’t been a problem.
