I’m so glad I wasn’t aware how much helicopters yearn for the pull of gravity when I took a ride in one during my first and only trip to Hawaii. 😅
We already have flying cars. They're called helicopters. They're really expensive and there are good reasons you have to have a pilot license and work with air traffic control to fly them. Putting jets on a sedan is not going to result in a better vehicle or transportation experience in any way.
PSA: It’s OK to let people have innocent moments of joy, even (especially!) in this hellscape. You do not need to remind people at every opportunity (in the comments of sweet cat pictures!) of the horrors that persist. WE KNOW. We NEED the moments of joy, or what are we even surviving for? *BLOCK* 😒

Evening boost. If you want to understand how an otherwise incomprehensible culture of sexual assault gets built from childhood on ... well, I did my best to explain it from an insider's perspective. Nothing bad happens to or around the bear. The bear is our friend.
It's Monday! I wrote about Cornell, sex ed in the cult, and Terry Pratchett's definition of sin. This might be the most content warnings I've ever needed on an essay, so please take care when reading. I don't think I get super disturbing, but I'm a poor judge. www.patreon.com/onbearfeet/p...
This article is so extremely relatable. And now I want banana bread. Or maybe cornbread, or an oatmeal cookie. (With chocolate chips, not raisins.) 🍪
Halfway through I had a complete breakdown for a week, then finished said column post-breakdown. So, It’s a doozy. jonathanedwarddurham.substack.com/p/know-worri...

“People-pleasing has been moved to Legacy Support and will no longer receive security updates.” Welcome to (peri)menopause. 😂
"Thank you for updating to Woman™ 51.0. This release includes important security updates, several unexpected hardware changes, a completely redesigned relationship with alcohol, and expanded support for saying 'absolutely not' without explaining yourself." buff.ly/31NgFok
Be careful what devices you use… or let your children use. 😬
NEW: A hacker tracked @agreenberg.bsky.social from his apartment to the subway to his desk using a $30 kids' smartwatch, took photos through its camera and listened in on him at work. Tens of millions of the devices run on three backends in China, and they're all broken.

Never too late to learn how to add ALT text to your images! It's a simple way to let people with visual or neurological impairments know that you care about making them feel included in the Bluesky community.
Posting this again because a lot of people said they found it helpful! Guide to ALT text: www.perkins.org/resource/how...

I LOVE THIS. There is a resurgence among millennials and younger folks of old-school crafts or “grandma hobbies,” and I am SO here for it. 🧶 🤗 (gift article) www.nytimes.com/2026/07/18/w...
I commented. I WANTED to say “Keep your filthy colonizer mitts off sacred tribal lands” with some more colorful 🤬 language thrown in, but I kept it professional. (They don’t have to listen to us at all, and they definitely would do the opposite of listening to that.)
Please blow up the public comment (included below): BREAKING NEWS (7/15) — The administration wants to destroy Chaco Canyon without consulting Tribal Nations. It’s an irreplaceable historic & cultural site with 4,700 archeological sites that could be lost to the bulldozers of oil & gas development
“Verify your age” I learned to type on a typewriter. Eventually, my dad was feeling fancy and got a word processor. By the end of high school, we had acquired a used Commodore computer and this newfangled thing called The Internet! 😲 It made funny noises when connecting, and shared the land line.
"Verify your age" When my pre-K teacher at an evangelical school asked us who was running for president that fall, we could all name George H.W. Bush (because of our parents), but we struggled to name the Democratic candidate. She prompted us with, "Michael ...?" and I blurted out, "JACKSON?!"

Oh, how I wish this article was not so very relevant in 🇺🇸 today. I kept wondering why he appoints unfit people over and over again. Is it because he himself is too stupid to see how bad they are? No; it’s most likely by design. Classic authoritarian playbook. 😞 www.nytimes.com/2026/05/18/w...
