we are officially weeks away from the sun setting at 4:30 pm. please begin mentally preparing to eat your dinner in the pitch black.

or you can die now and without a living trust ur estate is in probate for 2 years, and u didnt enjoy 2cents of it

It’s actually crazy how you grow up thinking home-cooked meals every day are just normal, then get older and realise how much time and effort it took your Mom to make that happen and how lucky you were to have that.

This is how calculus should’ve been taught from day one

I’m just going to say it and bring on the haters: with the exception of highly specialized classes or special education, ELEMENTARY teaching is so much HARDER than secondary. And yes, I’ve taught on all three levels!

It’s remarkable how a piece of music can awaken a sense of connection to a place that has never been our home. "André Rieu – Highland Cathedral"

EXCLUSIVE: Netflix has announced "The New Stanford Prison Experiment," an unscripted series streaming Oct. 21. "Thirty willing participants enter a real prison and are randomly assigned as guards or prisoners. Thrust into a system of power, hierarchy, and control, they’ll discover whether ordinary people inevitably conform to the roles they’re given—or whether empathy, morality, and individuality can withstand the forces pushing them in the opposite direction. As the pressure builds and the balance of power begins to shift, the central question feels more urgent than ever: Does power corrupt?" wp.me/pc8uak-1lHKzp

VOYAGER 1 JUST CAME BACK FROM THE DEAD Something thought to be broken for more than 20 years has suddenly come back to life on a spacecraft more than 15 billion miles from Earth. NASA’s Voyager 1, launched in 1977, recently faced another problem that could have threatened its ability to communicate with us. Engineers needed backup roll thrusters to help keep the spacecraft’s antenna precisely aimed at Earth. But those thrusters had been considered unusable since 2004 after their tiny heaters stopped receiving power. Then NASA engineers took another look at the old failure. They suspected the heaters might not actually be dead, but stuck in the wrong electrical state. So they sent a carefully planned command into deep space. The signal took more than 23 hours to reach Voyager 1. There was no instant response and no way to intervene if the spacecraft reacted badly. Engineers had to wait. Then, more than a day later, the telemetry arrived. The temperature had risen. The heaters were working. A system believed to be lost for two decades had been brought back to life from billions of miles away. The timing matters. Voyager’s working thrusters are slowly becoming less reliable as fuel residue builds up inside their narrow tubes. Meanwhile, the spacecraft’s nuclear power source loses about four watts every year. NASA has already been forced to shut down instruments to conserve its shrinking supply of electricity. Only two science instruments remain operating. And Voyager 1 is still heading farther into interstellar space. In November 2026, it is expected to become the first human-made object to reach a distance of one light-day from Earth — about 16.1 billion miles away. A spacecraft built nearly half a century ago is still whispering information back to Earth from the darkness between the stars. And somehow, every time it seems ready to fall silent, engineers find another way to keep it talking. Source: NASA/JPL

Introverts are good writers because they've been refining their inner dialogue their whole lives and have imaginary conversations with people on a daily basis.
