@seraphicxc So. Lovely! 🥰

@AmyJCuthbertson @luxemiaa And - how many men wouldn’t think twice of asking this of their future wives? That was the point here. 🤦‍♀️

@luxemiaa Yes you’re asking too much! You knew all this when you met him so why do you think he should change? Maybe you should let him meet someone who accepts him & his career!

My boyfriend and I have been together for 1.5 years. He proposed last weekend. I said yes… but something is eating at me. He’s a medical resident at a prestigious hospital in New Jersey. Great for him, right? But I told him I need a partner who is fully present in the home. Working a job, an advancing career, & his own income would just get in the way of his true purpose. Which is raising kids, cooking, cleaning & being a husband/father. So, I asked him to quit school. Commit to our ...

@oxymoronassoc I have been using the style of the left one for like 2 years now, but do yourself a favor and buy this really awesomely sturdy one. It’s more expensive but so worth it . amazon.com/Pennsylvania-W…

Our dryer died and it's supposed to be 80F here so I'm buying a drying rack bc we don't have one and if anyone has an opinion tell me now bc it's gonna be outside so getting the right one tho prefer the left drying inside

@AntiClimaco I switched back to in-person open notes tests and I had one student that went to the bathroom a lot and every answer was not only wrong but also AI-generated. They must have written down the answer from their phone. Lower division majors biology.

Okay! It was already obvious but this is my last time doing take-home midterms because despite getting 0s students are seemingly unable to stop chatgpting, totally addicted

@CatherineMMunro Ohhhh - these are so cool! I just ordered a pendant! Thank you 😊.

@weskrantz 🙋‍♀️ I admit am one of those people Sir. Alas.

here’s the Stout instead of Finn, as many people have asked for *many many people, often with tears in their eyes

@saintsoftness We had a big snow storm in the Sierra Nevada last week. I became Star’s human last year when my friend passed away. He grew up in San Francisco and had never seen snow. He was absolutely captivated by the snow flakes and tried to catch them through the window. ❄️❄️

Blizzard Watch:

@OneNerdyOpinion Star can’t believe you did that and he’s offering Dandy asylum.

I think I made a mistake. I was getting Dandy’s morning treats, and the shaker was extra generous with its shake today. So I put a couple of the crunchies back in the shaker. But Dandy looked at me like I just stole Christmas. Am I a monster for putting them back?

@Winona_bird @grace_panetta Thanks for this. Without your brilliant explanation I would have totally missed the point. 🙄🙄 Dude - I teach in higher ed. I do know what I am talking about. So thanks for nothing🥳 🥳.

@StriderTricker @grace_panetta You’ve missed her point. There are gigantic corporate incentives IE AI, instant gratification, endless scroll social media, Amazon same day delivery that cumulatively push people towards having zero friction tolerance. These forces are more powerful and pervasive than 1)

A truly revolutionary statement from a Bay Area native in a time when copious amounts of time and resources are being put toward convincing us to opt out of experiencing struggle, friction and self-actualization

@saintsoftness OMG - she’s so tiny! 🥰

Pliny, human with unkempt hair for scale:

@pearlwheeler1 @nxthompson @DrJenGunter @ebruenig With the vaccine all kids survived. There hadn’t been a measles death in 25 years. Your attitude kills children unnecessarily.

@nxthompson @DrJenGunter @ebruenig My brother and I survived measles as did most kids in the 1950s/1960s and my two children had mild attacks in the 1980s,

This is an astonishing, heartbreaking piece by @ebruenig theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/02/…

🚨NEW: Donald Trump has attacked USA Olympic skier Hunter Hess on social media, calling him a “real loser” for expressing concern about the murders of Alex Pretti and Renee Good by ICE. RETWEET if you stand with Hess against Trump!

@feederofcats I love how mom’s eyes soften when she decides to try the churu 💕💕.

@OurGinger12 I am in the same boat. My mom says I drive her crazy with my ever-changing food choices 🤷‍♀️.

Mummy has been buying me expensive food because I'm getting old now and she says I deserve it. But I've decided I like Sheba again, so she's had to buy that as well. Now Mummy has turned to gin because she's confused about my fads. Poor Mummy 😹

@teachthemx3 I tried to show my kids teacher that my kids answer was correct, but the teacher went by the key provided with the textbook (which was wrong); the teacher didn’t understand the math at all. 4th grade. 🙈

I love that our math department just sent a congratulations message in GroupMe for a teacher who's been teaching Algebra 1 for three years and finally passed the 7-12th grade math certification exam. This was her 5th and final attempt.

@lizardschwartz OMG - we tried to play this at community game night last month and the learning curve 😱… we did not even get through it. Everyone was leery to try again this month. Sounds like we should?

POV: I invite you round to play a board game and you look at your choices. The choice is an illusion.

@AarynKowalchuk @RickABright The flu vaccine is based on inactivated virus (= can’t cause active infection);

@RickABright How can a vaccine be matched to a new strain??

@weskrantz But is it cool AF? 💯%!

Is it comfortable? Not really. But is it a practical daily driver? Also no

@jasonc_nc Molinari’s in North Beach, San Francisco: Renzo’s Special - always THE BEST!

Tell me the best sandwich you’ve ever had - what it was and where. I’m going to dedicate myself to researching this topic extensively, in America and abroad, over future decades. This is now my white whale.
