Guys, I think some of you might be a lot happier if you made peace with the idea that some people can be wrong on the internet, and that's fine
I thought having twins there would be at least *some* economies of scale, but I am here to tell you that there are essentially none. The hospital charges you for two births!
Zach Weinersmith@zachweinersmith.bsky.social · last wk.Hey parents of bsky: What are some theories of parenting you were very confident in right up until you had your own kids?
Today I rubber banded two oranges together and put bath finger paint soap on them to teach my daughters how to wipe their butts before they start kindergarten, and they kept calling it poop class
Date: What do you do? Me: I'm a kleptozoologist Date: Isn't it cryptozoologist? Me, stuffing my pockets with lobsters from the tank: that's a common misconception
James Franco, who doesn’t look all that handsome onscreen to me, but I used to pretty regularly pass him on my way to my 8am Chinese class and feel annoyed that he was so pretty so early in the morning
Jeremy Dauber@jeremydauber.bsky.social · 2w agoRandom question: what celebrity have you met in real life who was dramatically better looking than ypu thought they were based on on screen appearance?
One of my favorite facts to bewilder people with is that the animal trainer from this movie later rose to the highest ranks of one of the largest drug cartels ever prosecuted by the U.S.
Ben Rosen@benrosen.bsky.social · 3w agomy kid asked if he’s punching the whale out of the water
My favorite part of THE ODYSSEY is the post credits scene where stately, plump Buck Mulligan came from the stairhead and said, “I’m putting together a team.”
There are fireworks going off in two directions, and I keep checking CNN, but sadly…
Claude Fable tell me how to not fumble this baddie. Make no mistakes.
Showing up on the good trailcams account sitting in a beautiful meadow eating a Culver's burger in my underwear
Just putting it out there that we probably wouldn’t have a Diarrhea Lettuce problem if farm workers had BATHROOM ACCESS AND REGULAR BREAKS
I interviewed for a data science job at NASA, and the guy who would be my boss had done a time use study of his data scientists and found they spent upwards of 85% of their time cleaning data. Nothing I've experienced in the subsequent 10 years has refuted this.
NERV IRB Coordinator@professormusgrave.bsky.social · 3w agoMy methods training was okay to good but it definitely left me with the impression that analysis was something like 80% estimating 15% presentation 5% wrangling and it’s actually 96% wrangling
we should come up with a fucked up pizza call it Lansing Style make everyone pretend to like it
If ‘agora’ means ‘marketplace,’ does ‘agoraphobia’ mean ‘panic at the Costco?’
Horrible new bullshit from the sea every time. It’s never ‘oh we found a new pink fish that is so happy’ it’s always stuff like this, the crush-depth screw-headed dongwongler, and it’s got to have big long creepy bits. Sick of the ocean tbh.
I think it’s telling that I have a friend who is a mathematician who developed a really good algorithm for sports betting, and they banned him for being too good at it. If they want you to stay, it’s because they don’t think you will win on net
Bradford Pearson@bradfordpearson.bsky.social · 4w agoI truly don’t see how this country can go on if we don’t ban online sports betting. This story is stomach-turning.
I must also retract my belief that Mrs Bennet should have a gun, a regrettable misreading of her character. I do, however, think it would be very funny if we gave Lydia a gun.
people who hate imperialism and genocide can simply root for USA's opponent on Monday night, Belgium
It’s actually almost charming at this point how everything for the GASF seems to have been done by somebody experiencing their first day on earth
FactPost@factpostnews.bsky.social · last mo.Caulk is visibly oozing from the columns of the false "Arc de Trump" on display at the Great American State Fair
If you were reading a novel, and based on some extremely specific characterizations, you thought one of the characters was someone you know irl, would you tell them?
They have finally released the product I’ve been asking for for years: spray sunscreen formulated for hair to put on your part. I got the Sun Bum one this year. Might also be useful if you color your hair to keep it from going brassy, TBD
Elizabeth@strawberrybland.bsky.social · last mo.This is a great and informative thread. Sunscreen isn’t just about anti-aging. Melanoma is an absolute fucking monster. Ask the 4 inch scar on my arm, and that’s “just“ from stage 1. Melanoma is deadly in many cases. Watch the missed spots like ears and part/scalp.
I'm honestly starting to wonder how many concurrent problems a reflecting pool could even have on a given day? Surely some of these are mutually exclusive?
I taught my 4yo twins that our family motto is “We feel the spirit of never giving up,” which is actually some oddly phrased ad copy I read on a Chinese airline advertisement in 2009
I turned around with my backpack on and hit Nobel Prize winner Tom Steitz, who glared at me
