A shoutout to all emergency services and infrastructure workers doing the grind tonight and tomorrow. My sister's boyfriend does salting and plowing in the winter, and it can be a thankless job. You are all incredibly kind people, and it's because of you folks that the world can keep running while the rest of us celebrate. Especially if you've taken someone's shift at the last minute. Happy holidays and bless your hearts.

Once a year you should transport a warm apple pie in your car. Better than any air freshener 😋

The IDF-settler playbook:
1. Brutal settler violence forces Palestinians to flee their village
2. IDF declares the area a closed military zone to "avoid clashes"
3. A few months or years pass
4. Nearby settlement expands or new settlement is built on village land

This is called ethnic cleansing.

Today we celebrate the birth of Sir Isaac Newton. Without his invention of calculus we would have no way to stop people who are bad at math from becoming engineers.

Apple has spent untold millions developing 3D goggles when they could have been working on this.

Happy Holidays from DOS Nostalgia! 🎄

People with glass ornaments on their Xmass trees who also have cats deserve every little shard in their feet that's coming.

For this year's gingerbread I made... the VLA!

My grandpapa used to dip his croissants in his coffee and I wanted to emulate him as a kid so I did it with orange juice and it's been a thing ever since.

Teens, from about 12-26 are going through and amazing amount of growth, emotionally, physically, and even in the pathways of the brain.
What they need is the opportunity to explore and try new things. They need increasing amounts of autonomy. They need empathy and a patient ear.
They will make a million mistakes and be embarrassed about each one.
You, as an adult, must give them a safe opportunity to make these mistakes and learn their own lessons (not yours).
