i've had invisalign for a few months and i brush and floss in my office bathroom and I thought it was weird for me to do it but now I think it's weird if you're not brushing your teeth

Best babysitter ❤️

has bluesky been giving people errors today? Specifically, when trying to view Discover or Friends tabs?

A bomb threat at the house of the Pope’s brother? I have no words, just rage.

happy belated to Pip!

We found another adult capable of handling this and hopefully it is being disposed of

Just saw the biggest cockroach I've ever seen in my life in the office bathroom. First thought was calling my mom to pick me up from work 😭

this is going to set off one of the worst wildfire seasons we've seen yet.

and this is exactly why we're building passive house social housing in seattle.

The hungry red panda at the Prospect Park Zoo? Adorable.

The HungryPanda delivery app scamming small businesses? Not adorable. So they will be paying $580,000 back.

We'll keep pursuing companies that take advantage of New Yorkers, and we'll keep asking if we can pet a red panda just for a second.

With that said, I stopped eating (raw) oysters years ago.

I'm a little bit of a history buff so I know about NYC's rich history with the oyster industry. I've also volunteered a bunch with Billion Oyster Project. It's funny how oysters have become a special interest in my adult life. I was so tickled by seeing the oyster shells today

I saw a tiktok yesterday talking about looking into construction sites in lower manhattan to see cool stuff. the guy pulled out oyster shells from a construction site. 300-year-old oyster shells. I walked passed a lower manhattan construction site today, looked over, & sure enough... oyster shells

and so many convention centers lack decent internet connection tooooooo

i love this bird. first learned about it through Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

I knew it was bad but really didn’t appreciate it was quite this bad

Things that help calm the nervous system, quickly:

- Humming (stimulates vagus nerve)
- Exercise (anything helps, outside even better)
- Impeachment and removal

wow this makes me want to book a trip immediately to visit. beautiful!

omg they're waking the astronauts up with Under Pressure today i am crying

A WHOLE CIVILIZATION WILL DIE TONIGHT My son needs lunch, and I have to put his backpack together, but a whole civilization will die tonight, so I'm wondering if they've closed their schools. Like, a snow day, maybe, except instead of snow it's "keep your children home so if you die, you die together" — instead of "well open back up once the plows have cleared" it's "we don't know if we'll be here tomorrow, hold your babies tight." It's just "talk" I'm told, which I've been told before. "It's how the president makes his deals." But I've never heard anyone talk about other human beings this way, and I'm not certain I can look my son in the eyes if we all agree to stomach it one more time. A civilization will die tonight, but as I zip up his backpack and kiss him off to school I think: if this is what we call leadership then I'm not entirely sure ours isn't already dead. @michaelfdubois Mukad A QuBoy @michacifdubois

Brutal.

“I asked ChatGPT”- ok well I asked the mycelium and it said to plant more trees and to tell you to return to the forest

What a f*cking waste of lives and money. 😠

don't mind me i'm just crying about Artemis again. I can't imagine how much i'd be wrecked if i as in my luteal tbh

I think I have food poisoning again. Ate so much yesterday at
Easter and trying to pinpoint the culprit. Last time I had food poisoning was back in June and I'm fairly confident it was an airport salad that did me in.

I've been listening to the Fred Again B2B with Thomas Bangalter (1/2 of daft punk) all day. It's sooo good. Highly recommend watching the Youtube of it (which Fred was so kind to not have ads on it)

An American Woodcock on the ground amid some leaf litter and new green shoots. The bird is in side profile, and their tail feathers are raised. Woodcocks are shaped like potatoes with intricate feather patterns that help them blend in to their surroundings. They have large eyes and very long beaks.

Timberdoodle PSA - these wonderful birds are passing through NYC via the Atlantic Flyway to rest & refuel before continuing on their long migratory journey. Please give them plenty of space and quiet to do so, and limit your time observing them to limit their stress 🥔🪶

sometimes i get lost thinking about all the pre-technology extinct birds who probably had very lovely bird calls that no living human has ever heard

No one talks about how hard it is to care for the elderly. Assisting with caregiving myself, I can't stress enough that you should have conversations with your loved ones as you age about what the best lines of care are for you.
