If your Twitter profile-pic is anything other than you as a small child, you're internetting wrong. A constant reminder of our shared origins as tiny little idiots would make the internet more friendly. Like the first day of kindergarten, not the worst days of high school.
As one of the last two unpaid interns Radiolab had (shoutout to @perciaverlin), I have mixed feelings every time I see we now pay our interns.
That said, I'd do it for free again. In a heartbeat.

This brilliant but brutal PSA from 2018 aimed to motivate young people to vote with some reverse psychology

Fun little trick in the Sunday New York Times crossword yesterday: the central theme clue was "The better of two sci-fi franchises", and regardless of whether you put Star Wars or Star Trek, the crossing clues worked
Every human of consequence is, at some point, measured by what they leave behind. @jadabumrad defined the sound of an entire industry. It was a pleasure and a privilege to be even a tiny part of it. To time for being. Soak it in. You've earned it.
Hey everybody. I have some big personal news. I am stepping aside as host of Radiolab. This show that I started in 2002 - in my basement - is about to celebrate its 20th anniversary, and this feels like the right time.

UPDATE: Just got word that Abdul Latif is out of Moroccan custody and back at home with his family. #EidMubarak to him on his first day at home in over two decades. (And by total coincidence, it’s also my birthday.)
I’ve been waiting years to write this tweet. Here goes:
BREAKING NEWS: He’s out! Abdul Latif Nasser (aka #TheOtherLatif) has been RELEASED from #Guantanamo, and just landed in his home country of Morocco.
Listen (or re-listen) to his odyssey at theotherlatif.org.

Get those shoes into us before the marks turn to permanent blisters. We will get the marks out and treat the shoe with protection

Listen to this entire interview from an officer who was assaulted at the Capitol.
Pretty please, all news organizations, stop replaying clips from that insane Trump press conference. Don't give the lies the validity of airtime, simply explain it.

Getting reports of multiple robocalls going to Flint residents that, due to long lines, they should vote tomorrow.
Obviously this is FALSE and an effort to suppress the vote. No long lines and today is the last day to vote. Don’t believe the lies! Have your voice heard! RT PLS.
The only reboot I've ever cared about. My inner child is making popcorn and parked in front of the TV. This may single-handedly save this year for me. youtu.be/fNCDu4nmt8M
