our muscles atrophy.
I predict we'll need gyms for our brains too, once Al

There's this episode of Astro Boy (1980s anime) where his sister secretly undergoes an operation that will let her split into two copies of herself so one can take art class while the other can fight in an arena. But the split resulted in each getting half the strength she had before.

I have heard the idiom and it makes sense to me because I know how large I am but I have never moved with abandon in this small space where I was born. These bits of china—cups and saucers and bowls and platters—are like family to me. The only thing I am going to break is expectations.

It's officially pumpkin season, which happens to be a special treat for our ambassador wolves this time of year! 🎃🐺 Although wolves are classified as carnivores, they can sometimes have an omnivorous diet. Along with meat and eggs, wolves may also enjoy fruits like pumpkins. #wolffact

As youth unemployment rises, it is hard to find a decent job—unless you want to enlist. Gabriela Calugay-Casuga explores how the Carney government is making military jobs more attractive while it cuts the public sector and abandons a pledge to fund youth climate jobs breachmedia.ca/no-youth-job...

Look past the trees. What lies beneath our feet here is a global climate superpower. These waterlogged peatlands (bogs, fens) occupy a mere 3% of global land area, yet they pack away more carbon than all of the world's forest biomass combined. They are one of Earth's ultimate cooling mechanisms. 2/

I think the "debate" about bringing iced coffee to job interviews is effective at distracting people from the really bad job market, the high unemployment rate for Black women, ongoing mass layoffs in tech and media, and how Gen Z workers are refusing to adopt many toxic aspects of corp work culture

When I switched to AI transcription for interviews, I just ended up spending more time doing longer interviews and talking to more people. I also still take notes, because as @tressiemcphd.bsky.social said, I still use them to think, like observing body language, their appearance, and other details.

Accordingly, all other spacefaring species have what we would consider a massive ATP deficiency presenting as chronic fatigue. From their perspective, we’re terrifyingly fast and strong.

one of my favorite Bonhomme Facts is that there's a bunch of amiable signage in the Quebec City airport, but nowhere else, that localizes his name into English as "the Effigy," which I think they realized soon after is much worse than just leaving it in French

24 Aug is Pluto Demotion Day! T'was on this day, 20 years ago in 2006, that the International Astronomical Union (IAU) changed the definition of what it is to be a 'planet' and so Pluto got 'demoted'. It's a big day of feels for astronomers! In that time, Pluto has traversed ~8% of its orbit.

Thousands around B.C. will find themselves with freezers full of contents in need of disposal by the time summer ends. As many return home, they’re told to clean the freezers themselves, since the province stopped funding the curbside pickup of nightmare appliances. 🥩 @tyolsen.bsky.social reports.

Inset from the cover of a star trek fan magazine. White text reads: Inside - Giant Poster of popular character Reginald Barclay. Below the text is a headshot of Dwight Schultz as Lt. Barclay. He looks so, so so afraid.Photograph of the aforementioned poster. It's like four fucking feet tall and it's just Dwight Schultz's terrified face. The photographer touches his forehead gently, presumably to demonstrate Barclay's impressive size but also to put the unnerved Reggie at ease. A caress.
