Took a B12 vitamin this morning in hopes it not only solves all of the issues I currently have internally but but also globally, reaching people in all corners of the world
in 2008 grown ass adults made fun of me for reading a book in a laundromat and I felt that we were cooked, societally

I’m sorry, but hackers remotely turning off refrigeration systems at hundreds of supermarkets and destroying all their fresh and frozen food is INSANE. We’ve connected so much of our physical world to the internet that apparently even keeping milk cold is now a cybersecurity problem. What the actual hell.

I learned something very beautiful today. In French, “bibliothèque intérieure” means your “inner library” the invisible shelf you carry inside, filled with every story that’s ever shaped you.
ahhh I see
Because of federal rules, children covered by Medicaid won't be able to access vaccines that are no longer recommended by the federal government, even as children with private insurance will. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/r…

It's ideologically, psychologically impossible to name this for what it is, so instead of talking about terrible governance causing economic damage and impoverishment that creates economic refugees, we talk about "expats seeking higher quality of life with lower cost of living."

When you work harder to earn more money that buys less goods and services of lower quality—you are becoming poorer. That's the word for it.

"Enshittification" is a sort of "safe horny" term for what is really just outright impoverishment and declining living standards due to economic insolvency from deindustrialization, demographic decline, hyperinflation, etc.
You are just de-developing and becoming poor.

Meta glasses are being used for covert harassment and group stalking.
Women and girls are being secretly filmed in streets, schools, restaurants and on dates, then uploaded for millions of strangers. Police inquiries now span worldwide. #OpDeathEaters

The monarch butterfly population has gone up this season by 64% and one of the reasons is because people are planting pollinators gardens. Look what we can do together with a common goal in mind. We need to plant more next year as their population is still not stable.

the next white lotus should be at the covid-conscious lesbian bar in western Massachusetts

Per a note to Boston Globe staff today, the lesbian bar story generated 1,000 subscriptions to the paper yesterday. The Globe’s managing editor said it was “by far our best performing story of the year,” and appears to be “on pace to shatter all sorts of Globe records.”
A lesbian bar in Greenfield eased its stringent mask mandate, a decision that has splintered the queer community in the city and beyond. trib.al/FyZjBWs

If your child tells you they haven’t written an essay, I encourage you to assign one immediately.
You need to know what your child’s writing is like. They should hand-write it if you’re worried about the use of AI.
Here’s a list of sample prompts: gomotionapp.com/isrmsc/UserF…

Parents—
If you have not read an essay written by your child in the last 365 days, I encourage you to ask them for a graded essay soon. Read your child’s writing.
Ask them for something they had to support w/evidence. Take a look at how they communicate/defend a position.
