So you know how they have those special episodes of Doctor Who where they have multiple incarnations of the Doctor working together? Why not do the same thing with James Bond? #drwho #jamesBond

Okay, here's what we need. An app or website that people can use to help other people buy them gifts. It would work like this:

After a handful of questions to determine your general likes and dislikes, it starts showing you pairs of items and asking which one you would prefer to receive as a gift.

Twelve years ago three gamers, including @aproustian.bsky.social assembled for what would become known as "Game Night 1." It has been a recurring event ever since, and tonight, a mostly different group of gamers convened for Game Night 100. (Cake by Shannon C.) #gameNight100 #gameNight #boardgames

I suspect voter fraud, but I can’t prove it. #pinochleForTheWin #pinochle

It occurs to me that if someone were to make a cloaking device for cars, that would be a very bad idea. #veryBadIdeas #klingonMotors

Got a postcard about jury duty last week. Just responded online. Told ‘em I’m dead. That should take care of it. #goodThinking #howToAvoidJuryDuty

I’m starting the Jets quarterback in two of my leagues and Baker Mayfield in the other. This is what my life has become. #fantasyFootball #anotherSeasonDownTheDrain

Maintenance guy with his head in my ceiling working on my office temperature: "Well, I've gotta go get a meter."

Me (picking up a meter off my desk): "Will this do?"

Maintenance guy: "Oh, yeah. I gotta work in the science building more often."

Today I googled “distance to andromeda galaxy.” A window popped up asking me to “Allow Google to use your location.”

Is that really necessary? #iteachphysics

It always makes me laugh a little when war gamers introduce themselves on a forum, and the picture is so frequently them holding a gun, or wearing camo, or standing in front of a tank.

You don't see Euro gamers posting pics of themselves holding bags of wheat or standing in front of a windmill.

I think what they like about my lawn is the tremendous variety of things to eat. Most of the lawns on my street just have grass. #bunnies #rabbits #bunnyrabbits #bunniesrabbit

Hey, physics teachers, got a question. What do you use to draw circuit diagrams? I just had a bunch of parts I drew in Word, then I copied and pasted them together to make circuits. But they’ve been behaving wonky ever since I switched from Windows to Mac. #iTeachPhysics
