This is Tub and Blue. They simply cannot figure out how to get their tennis ball that fell in the pool. Still 12/10 because they really are trying

Friendly reminder to support your local independent bookstore this weekend! A slightly less friendly reminder to just not buy books from Am*zon at all.

The clinical psychologist Lindsay Gibson is the author of “Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents,” a slow-burning best seller that’s earned a following on TikTok. She recently discussed the impact egocentric parental behavior has on children and how to embrace the freedom of boundaries.

The clinical psychologist explains the demands of “emotionally immature” parents, the impact it has on their children and the freedom of saying “no.”

Every day on the internet makes it abundantly clear that some people have never had a single person turn around and say to them, ‘Cite your sources’ because, and I say this with every ounce of love I can muster as a teacher: while you are entitled to your opinion, that does not make it fact.

The power of on-screen representation 😻🐈‍⬛
Image of the black cat from Flow next to a photo of an adorable black cat tilting its head curiously at the camera. Text reads, "The global success of Academy Award-winning animation Flow has helped to increase the adoption rate of black cats." Not attributed but I fact checked it.

Four years ago, Coloradans faced horrific violence at King Soopers that claimed the lives of 10 of our community members. My heart goes out to those who lost loved ones and all Coloradans on this difficult day. As we mourn, we remain Boulder Strong.
Black and white photos of the 10 King Soopers Boulder Shooting victims with text that reads “#BoulderStrong” with Colorado Governor Jared Polis logo at the bottom of the graphic.

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women. More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications. I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

Yep they knew. Heinous fucks. Please listen to my interview on @onwithkaraswisher.bsky.social with the mother of the 14 year old boy who did just this after being obviously and repeatedly manipulated by a chatbot (link below)

Today I did a cyber security panel taping for @onwithkaraswisher.bsky.social and @avindman.bsky.social and I discussed the attack we both get from Musk online (his are worse than mine). Both of us ignore it and this epic quote explains why.

Headline: WE WERE BADLY MISLED ABOUT COVID!!! Content of oped: OK, there’s still no evidence of a lab origin and let’s not even mention the mounting evidence it started in the market but here’s a recap of some uneven lab-leak talking points from the last few years www.nytimes.com/2025/03/16/o...

The same dangerous mistakes. The same lack of candor.

You shouldn’t finish every book you start. Abandoning a book is not an admission of failure—it’s a sign of wisdom. You’ve decided to let go of sunk costs. The purpose of reading is to be entertained and informed. If a book doesn't bring joy or insight, it’s time to move on.

So I’ve worked out a system for when you’re carrying two mugs and you need to remember which is for you and which is for someone else. You pick up the one for someone else in your right hand and then when you say “I think this is the Right one” it will be! Thinking of copyrighting it. CopyRighting!
