one of my brother’s best friends’ dad was a Goodyear blimp pilot. The kiddos got to ride along on a flight. It was quite cool for them.

If safe (cue the Hindenberg video) it woukd be so cool

Grotesque, tragic, and a call to action. All our kids deserve so much more

More like Magic Mike but it’s Bea Arthur. Because Bea Arthur is always what it is when it comes down to it

My kiddo to me just now: “Don’t be gatekeepimg memory loss.” Not much I can add 😬

Sleep disorders for the win

Same

Beyond cool

I like that you could stuff a whole regular oreo in your mouth if you wanted to, but you can exhibit the discipline to take a bite instead, whereas the double stuf oreos deny you that show of control

Oh gosh, there is not just one. The ones that come to mind are (in no particular order) My Cousin Vinny, The Princess Bride, Buckaroo Banzai, and That Thing You Do.

kids these days. sheesh

🫂 and 💜 to you, Miriam Grace

wishing you all the best, my friend. Hydrate, remember to breathe, and be yourself

Yessss

Can they not just do Hawaiian shirt Fridays like lots of businesses back in the day?

Per my foodie (adult) kid who is allergic to seafood, a good substitute for fish sauce is 1:1 soy:rice vinegar. I use this all the time and can cosign

Honestly, how hard is it to come up with messaging praising doing a little bit more, or keeping up with the good work you are already doing?

Also, if my partner made either of these pizzas for me I would be over the (pizza) moon

Yes, but now we will tell stories about you and the miraculous whipped-egg condiment. (Look, my last name is Curry, so we’re in kind of the same boat.)

I’m on team “OK you got the toppings onto the actual pizza and not on the counter” so, granted, my standards are low. However—and this is a big however—if the pizza tasted good and provided essential nutrients and maybe was aesthetically pleasing, regardless of symmetricity, then it’s all good

Thinking about the 62 million views, and then thinking about how marital rape was only made illegal in all 50 US states in the summer of 1993.

I can remember 1993. I can remember what was on the radio at the time. I had just been in my first movie. It was not so long ago.

the intended object for this comment was not you, Matthew, but your commenters, to be clear

Yeah so like if it’s about radical asymmetricality and/or cheese quotient, that’s more a them thing than a you thing, for sure. Empathy for them, but maybe this is a way to learn about interacting online? (Pro tip: it isn’t always easy, take feedback generously)

This is great. Both my young adult children have always been dinosaur enthusiasts and megalodons have certainly been on their list of intriguing species. All of the curiosity is good

It only takes one

Honestly I’m not sure canned spinach is even a thing. I just grew up on hating the product and loving Popeye (forgive me, I’m of an age)

I have to say that spinach’s gift to all of us is that it wilts so readily off heat for cooked dishes and it’s also beyond amazing fresh. Popeye had a good thing going (though I’m still skeptical of canned spinach)
