Proof that consistency and patience is far more effective in creating habits in your dog than fear and dominance. Such a beautiful expression of devotion 💛

The legend of Freestyle Fred... The #49ers linebacker didn't know how to swim when he took to the pool in late November in an effort to accelerate his comeback from a dislocated ankle. Today he swims better than a lot of Division I water polo players ... www.nytimes.com/athletic/730...

Rabbits show dominance by demanding to be groomed, while cats show dominance by grooming the other. A perfect relationship

Matcha took his very first swim at Zeehondencentrum Pieterburen, a rescue centre. "And he did so well! He even managed to climb out of the pool all by himself. From now on, we'll practise a little every day so that Matcha can soon swim all on his own with confidence." #sealpup #seals #sealcentre

This firefighter revives a cat using life-saving techniques during a fire. Regardless of species, anyone who saves a life is a hero.

This dog perfectly captures my vibe at work this month and I blame Arsenal for that (but also love Arsenal for that, don't stop now, one more) 🔴⚪

Cat: he does know there's a Truck in front of us, right!? Dog: if we die, we die

Raiders rookie QB Fernando Mendoza is a good dude.

Capybaras patiently waiting for traffic before making their grand road crossing in Brazil is a sight you don't want to miss. Nature's charm at its best!

A kind guy came home from work with a super timid stray dog . The pup had been living outside his job site and was extremely scared of people. They took him to the vet (no microchip found) and slowly helped him come out of his shell with love and patience. ❤️

Teaching students to avoid "bothering" their teachers stops learning in its tracks, undercuts essential social development, and trains kids not to seek help (from people) when they need it. Its sole function is to enable higher student-teacher ratios. @aft.org promoting this is sick and sickening.

Greetings and good morning it’s the Wednesday farm rush with our forever friends

this is a masterpiece

One of the greatest headlines ever made

A genuine thrill to see Big Fiction in Spanish as Los más vendidos, translated by Íñigo García Ureta, with a new introduction I wrote for this translation with a few quick notes on Spanish publishing industries, in a series, Tipos móviles, by Trama w books by John B. Thompson, Roger Chartier + more

I am convinced people do not know the plot of the movie black panther.

I don't know how to explain to the people who pop up when creatives complain about "AI" to say there are legit uses for it just how much they sound like someone saying "Well actually fire is used to make bread" when people are talking about an organized arson ring burning down their fucking houses

2024 me: “man, I should have been smarter with my money, I shouldn’t have bought a PS5 and 3070Ti in 2022/2023.” 2026 me: “oh thank fuck for my stupidity.”

One way to look at tonight's events: The Raiders spent $281.5M in free agency to build up their team... and just acquired one of the best pass-rushers of the last decade in Maxx Crosby.

We desperately need feel-good stories as the world burns.

Congrats to BART rider and Oakland legend Alysa Liu on winning a gold medal at the Olympics and making the Bay Area proud!

"I’ll Samba Someplace Else" by Andrew G. Britt charts how spatial projects sustain popular ideologies of post-racialism despite enduringly high levels of racialized inequity in Brazil and beyond. Read the intro for free now: buff.ly/LipCcpS

This grown ass woman is 72 years old (14 cat years)

NFL going out of their way to force-schedule 3 games on Christmas Day featuring 5 of the best teams last year only to end up with matchups with 5 teams whose season is already over and will be starting backups is the holiday spirit we all needed

probably not a great sign that Clelin Ferrell, elevated to active roster in mid-November, leads the team in sacks

The touchdown that never was....

Feel free to hand this to all of the Rams fans crying foul over the 2 point conversion.

They made a desert and called it a job market.

The five-paragraph essay apparently emerged in the US in the 1950s and was already getting lambasted by prominent critics and scholars in the early 1970s. It's always illuminating to see how long we've fought the same fights....

I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

For the haters who say Big Fiction over-relies on allegory, my most explicit, spirited defense of allegorical interpretation. "Sociology and Allegory," published as part of a series on the sociology of literature in IASL. Lemme know if you want a PDF www.degruyterbrill.com/document/doi...
