Recently there was talk on here about how emotions dull after your teens/early 20s. Well. I’m 33 and just got one of the biggest thrills of my life hearing my baby laugh at my singing, and then cried reading Thomas More’s Wikipedia page. Feels like the opposite is happening tbh.

Okay guys talk to me about the new DBH book. Amazing/def buy immediately/etc? Or “meh, maybe wait and get it from the library”?

Local news just referred to the upcoming week’s forecast as “sweater weather” lmao

It’s true.

Every day on our evening walk, we pass this Buddha statue. And every time, my two-year-old points at it excitedly and says “it’s mama!” Choosing to believe she simply recognizes that I have reached enlightenment.

I did an interview with Business Insider about my ChatGPT tweet, and the journalist did an excellent job with the piece imo.

"The aim of humanities education is not to create a product but to 'shape people' by giving them the ability to think about things that they wouldn't naturally be prompted to think about."
