On this Good Friday, I am thinking about the mothers, all the mothers who hold our suffering in their arms.

This is a very hard week to be a pacifist.

Lord, cleanse my imagination, and show me a better way.

What an incredible way to start a March break morning
I have been doing entirely too much earnest posting about deep things recently, I need to do a proper thread about hippo testicles or something just to keep myself sane.

Oh by the way hippos have migratory testicles.

The reply email inbox for this “what did you do last week” email is HR@opm.gov, so, you know, definitely don’t send them any unrelated messages that would interfere with their ability to carry out Elon’s dumbass bullshit

If you see this, post a photo from your device with no explanation.

Did I make this person delete their whole account, or just this post and I'm blocked?
How about actually crediting the photographer?

These are the hardest kids to write comments for, but I totally get it! "Your kid could do this, this and this to do better, but they don't really want to, and they are doing fine without it." But unfortunately, that doesn't look great on a report card.
My kid’s teacher had a meeting with me to tell me my son does only exactly what he is asked to for his assignments and nothing more. Our children have so much to teach us.

Scouting a new path up a mountain with an adventure-tour-guide friend. Full rock climbing gear, scaled a cliff, de-harnessed and tossed the gear down for the next climber. While I waited on the plateau I saw a weird rock. Poked it with a stick. It rolled and looked me in the face - a human skull.
Ok here’s a prompt I’m actually interested in the answers to—have you ever done, or even seen, something that could plausibly appear in an action movie (non-military, non-fistfight, driving a car fast doesn’t count)

I was trapped in a corner by an angry baboon and I was rescued by a classmate firing a make-shift flame thrower made of a lighter and Axe body spray.

"There Are Only Four Guys: A Life's Work"
I don't know how I got on this person's email list, but this is the kind of creativity and commitment most of us can only dream about:

I left Twitter because of Elon's fascism & megalomania. I should leave FB after Zuck's "Free speech is when Texans are abusive to women & trans people".

But is there an alternative to Marketplace? Certainly there's not one for my local Buy Nothing. Where will I get free half used craft supplies?

I was in the US for school until I was ten, so I got to experience the world of D.A.R.E. and PSAs like this.

Then we moved back to Canada where we enjoyed PSAs of puppets singing "Doncha put it in your mouth" 🎶

Wild contrast of communication styles.
wait this was REAL
Don't forget drugs. Drugs are evergreen.

I've followed this person for like 12 hours and already I have laughed out loud several times. I don't know how to make a starter pack but basically, it would have this account.
Jokes on them, I’m going to use AI to come up with 8000 businesses for dipshits
Why? Who is this meant to be good for? Nobody wants your shit AI books, never mind 8,000 in a year. Just a terrible idea and a horrible road the publishing industry is heading down.

Pico has not been pleased with Tess so far, but has started to return for pets where before she had snubbed us for our betrayal.

Today's Tess helping me with my makeup this morning.

Oh no, a better one:

Hi I'm Rachel and why did I think I could do this?

(Upon failing second year Analytical Chem)
Hi I'm Shiv and my parents may not be aware but they have raised a young Moriarty who will end up in jail one day if I do not mend my ways soon
Introduce yourself with your worst feedback from school:

Hi, I'm Keith, and I know it's been a long semester and I've worked really hard so this one'll slide, but if I EVER hand in something like this again...

Brought Teeny Tess home last night. I'm obsessed with her eyeliner and her giant purr.

My daughter has Global Developmental Delay and sometimes struggles in social situations, but a "big boy" took her stuffy at school and Every. Single. Kid in her class made a missing poster to hang around the school.

My heart!

(The signs worked and the stuffy was found!)

All my good posts were replies, which is also how I made it through university seminars.

I'm not a visionary, I'm a contributor.
