Charlie Warzel@cwarzel.bsky.social · last mo.i’ve never experienced a collective enthusiasm and fun like this month of the world cup. just consistently blown away how universal the enjoyment is and how deep people are plunging down the rabbit hole. doesn’t matter who i’m with or where i am everyone’s locked in and it rules
My toxic trait is that when I'm stressed, I refer to Wemby as "Wembledon"
To be fair, I was also deeply concerned about labor practices at the age of nine. But I was a Weird History Girlie with the entire set of Dear America books, so it was the labor practices of sweatshops in 1900s New York and the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire.

One of my strongest takeaways from the Bee this week is that it was a showcase for why critical thinking matters more than ever. So much of what the kids do up there isn’t rote memorization—it’s using their insane prep to solve words like puzzles (using etymology, patterns) in real time.
Goodpapajama@goodpapajamma.bsky.social · 2mo agoGreat feat and congratulations but as a skill it is less necessary in the age of AI and automatic spell check. Kinda like the multiplication tables.

For those who don't know, every year police from around the country come to DC and commit crime sprees.

I also think if you cut out all the crowd noise and announcers the sound of the skating and the puck and the sticks could be great ASMR
I can't help but feel like no one familiar with 20th century history was at the "let's have low-flying military planes screaming overhead to welcome the British!!!!" meeting

An important thing to note when discussing this topic is that NASA has a MANDATE to do outreach and education and messaging about its science. It’s a core principle for them. And as such that outreach is FUNDED. What we need is for more agencies to be rewritten to add mandates like this!
Hank Green@hankgreen.bsky.social · 4mo agoNASA and Mamdani are proving that Americans are desperate to see their money spent in ways they feel good about. This, however, is not the same thing as simply spending the money on things we would feel good about but never know happened. People need to be able to see it.
the year is 2026. you're a jewish american woman. the world leader you most respect is the catholic pope. everything's fine.
nasa employee: oh hey y'all are back astronaut: Jerry's verified? nasa employee: yeah, so? Where u going? astronaut: *turning off their phone and getting back on the rocket ship* Jerry's verified.
Humanity did that. Science did that. Publicly-funded research did that. Excellent universities did that. Diversity did that. International cooperation did that. Artemis II is a perfect example of what we can do at our best. Welcome home, Integrity crew!
Imagine if Strawberry Pop Tart jumped out after splashdown.
