Tall kid did this for art class.

I'm so impressed how his fine motor skills have improved since kindergarten. Even two years ago this would have been a multi session multi day task to complete.

The pure joy I feel when the tall kid tells me about the robot they are working on at school.

I was on a robotics TEAM in high school. 🤖

Watching Canadian Bacon from 1995 with John Candy.

It is hilarious how their bad jokes and ludicrous plot feel straight out of current headlines.
