‘Perfectly capable’.

Look, it works, okay? Survival of the fittest is a misnomer; it’s survival of the fit enough.

Have we tried just dropping our babies on city asphalt with a few sticks? Maybe we’re overdoing things.

Nobody sees him eating other muppets, so 100% ambush predator.

No one knows what happens when the lights go off on Sesame Street.

I assume it’s like My Friendly Neighbourhood, and Big Bird is the apex predator. Sometimes muppets just… vanish.

Hey man, all ducks are beautiful.

Earliest I have is from 2017, 15 years after. It would be fun to see the original if it still exists.

This looks to me like the dogs owned by an Egyptian hieroglyphic carver. He’d have left them at home, but then he’d come home to his bedding and draperies chewed, so he brought them to work.

I really think this is worth reading:

And note you can easily substitute the word ‘Trump’ for ‘Hitler’ throughout, and it’s uncannily accurate.

It’s important to understand that, despite the popular image of Hitler – of a genius tactician who was ruthless, &c – he was actually a narcissist, an imbecilic buffoon, and it doesn’t take smarts to do a holocaust. Only power and sociopathy.

That’s why these people are so dangerous. Not because they’re smart, but because they aren’t, and people give them power anyway.

I’ve mentored people before, and I learned more during that process than during any conferences or seminars.

For years, I bounce things off my cat. She’s learned a lot.

If you’re assigned something to read, read it aloud to yourself. This engages not just the internal monologue part of your brain, but speaking and hearing parts, and your brain makes stronger pathways when more senses are engaged and working together.

Don’t buy (eta: or download) flash cards, draw them yourself. This engages sight and abstraction., plus motor skill areas.

Write your own notes, then read them aloud and highlight them yourself. So many parts of your brain make connections by doing this. Don’t just read. That’s not very helpful; you don’t have to study long if you study well.

I think there’s a name for this, but I’m tired and will rely on Cunningham’s whatever.

e: don’t forget about all of your senses – you have way more than 5.

A while ago I asked whether you are a do the good thing first or save it for later sort of person, like eat the best part or whatever.

Now I’m curious if it was a zombie apocalypse, would that change your calculation?

So not in daily life, but if you found something good but you know you’ll likely die soon.

Do you consume it all now (not just food, but media or friendship), or do you dole it out to yourself to make it last?

When I minimise the app and come back, or let my phone sleep and come back, Voyager puts a large blank border around the whole UI and begins behaving strangely. Sometimes it crashes, but most times, buttons and gestures stop working.

This happens when tabbing away or when the phone sleeps.

Republican Rep. Thomas Massie roasted Attorney General Pam Bondi after she showed up on Capitol Hill with prepared insults to lob at critics while refusing to answer questions about Jeffrey Epstein. 

For hours while being grilled by lawmakers, Bondi repeatedly flipped through her binder while attacking lawmakers who dared to challenge her over the Justice Department’s botched handling of the documents on the pedophile.

“A funny thing about Bondi’s insults to members of Congress who had serious questions: Staff literally gave her flash cards with individualized insults, but she couldn’t memorize them, so you can see her shuffle through them to find the flash-cards-insult that matches the member,” Massie wrote on X on Wednesday afternoon.

The Kentucky lawmaker and regular Trump critic, who forced the vote to release the Epstein files, was one of the only GOP members to challenge Bondi over the Epstein probe.
