How come we don't say things like: "You're going to get left behind if you don't vote or participate in democracy", but we are constantly reminding people how important it is to learn the latest tech trend or risk being left behind.

I have no problem with virtue signaling. Hate has been given a megaphone and they have no problem amplifying those voices. There should be no shame in amplifying ours.

Walken turns 82 today. 🎂

Although he made SNL’s “More Cowbell” timeless, Will Ferrell’s initial stage directions called for “more woodblock” — not “cowbell.”

Said @ditzkoff.bsky.social: “We would not be talking about the sketch today if it was Christopher Walken saying 'I need more woodblock.’”

It is absolutely right that we do not need Greenland (or Canada) for natsec reasons because they are already close NATO allies. So the only rationale to turn the US into an aggressor in our own hemisphere is if you don’t plan on NATO being a US alliance in the future.

I can’t believe this has to be said, but: You cannot tell the story of Jackie Robinson—as a ballplayer, serviceman, or human—without discussing our country’s history of racism.

I am working out of a public library and there are a good number of people who seem to be on hard times using the facilities for various reasons like job searching, entertainment, charging peripherals, using the bathroom, etc., and I am struck by how important it is that libraries continue to exist

Sadly, this is a fact.
If I were to guess which baseball player's name I have heard and read in print more than any other during my life, I'd say probably Tommy John.

If you have a library card, in the U.S. and possibly elsewhere, you can read millions of books for free through the Libby app.
