can’t help but be relieved that Disney Robin Hood wasn’t released in The Discourse Era

It’s nice to see everyone’s textual analysis of The Odyssey It’s almost like the humanities give you entertainment, feelings, pleasure, and fun/interesting stuff to talk about, as well as lenses into both past and current society

“all the food looks horrible” is an absolutely devastating critique

I am so enjoying @hankgreen.bsky.social ’s new word game Smush… and today I got my first perfect score!

a puzzle board of letters and text below it reads 706 points Perfect 💯

the kid’s team played the top of the ladder team today… they conceded just one goal and not until the 50th minute of play. Kid played a great game despite being under the weather.

one of the reasons I cherish having the occasional dream about friends and relatives who have died is that it is *my* memory, my connection. I don’t need or want anyone else in that space
