Who would have thought that sorting and packing 13,000 pounds of potatoes could be so entertaining and satisfying. Great way to spend two hours if you have em! Highly recommend. @foodlifeline.bsky.social

If you’re turned away at the polls (in Virginia or anywhere in the U.S.), here’s what to do:
- Request a written explanation: If poll workers deny your regular ballot, ask them to put in writing why they refused it.

Reminder: In Virginia, you can register to vote on Election Day through same-day voter registration. This lets you register in person and cast a provisional ballot if you missed the regular registration deadline. Your vote will be counted once eligibility is confirmed, so don’t sit this one out!

8 yr old, made a Thank You note for a recent gift. Did the front cover & back but refused to put anything inside. When pressed to draw something inside, this is what he came back with, saying “It’s a Magritte joke!” 😳…Watch out world. (Reference photo from en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tre...)

Never stopped to read the original essay before. It’s striking how it resonates today. I teach college art students but even if I wasn’t a teacher, this gave me new perspective on being a part of society & helping change it to one I can be proud of. Read it. www.zinnedproject.org/materials/ba...

My youth prepared me for certain things growing up. Turns out quicksand, not as big an issue as was lead to believe but no one even mentioned ANTS! That is the life long battle of adults. Ants just march right in like they own the place! THE PLACS THAT YOU CAN’T EVEN OWN ON YOUR OWN!

Dear Doctors, when a patient is in office asking a question about the new drug you have just prescribed to them. Please, please for the love of everything, DO NOT Google the med and then proceed to read out loud through the AI overview as fact. Your patient’s respect for you will drop precipitously.

Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends.
But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.
See you soon, NYC.
