Food is your love language. Others "speak" in other ways... What a great event!

My goodness, what a neighborhood treasure you are, Goodport! This is just a wonderful event and I salute you for all the effort and attention to detail. Amazing!

I made this for dinner tonight and I'm astonished by how easy this is for the very same delicious outcome as the complicated standard recipe. The souffle barrier just came down and this will be on regular rotation here. Thanks!

When I saw in June my local nursery had its 50%off space going (usually not there till the very end of Aug) I bought a tree (of course!) and haven't been back. I do not trust myself!

The thinking of these other people escapes me. If folks need to be protected from seeing things they don't have, then I don't know how they make it through the day. Your placemats are lovely and your thoughtful plating is lovely. I'm glad that helps you be present during a meal. Carry on.

Yes, indeed! And we girls had a chapped ring around our legs where the tops of our winter boots stopped. Girls back then had to wear dresses even in a Minnesota winter, even when walking to and from school...

So a masculinist understanding of notetaking would think a transcription app is the same as taking notes. That’s why they think an AI transcript is a time-saver. They think the notes are the thinking because when a human takes the notes, it is.

(In honor of August, bringing this 🧵 over from twitter) August makes me think of the best summer restaurant I ever ate at. It didn’t have a name, just a tidy hand-painted sign: “Tomato Sandwiches—all you can eat.” #tomatosandwiches

So...the recipe you're keeping from us includes Greek yogurt? Got it! Anything more, maybe about the amount of cheese? 😁

Okay, now I see these are two different but very similar portraits. But who painted them?

Listening1 @patnan.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

Wait! I'm confused. Who was the artist? Her daughter-in-law? Or is this portrait of the daughter-in-law, painted by...?

Diane, I'm sorry for your loss and the absence of an "excuse" to be demonstrably joyful. If you can, I suggest that you get a dog. Dogs LOVE joyful expressions and neighbors tend to accept as normal dog owners' silliness. 🐕😀

That's a dog who knows you KNOW what they did. 😅

Incredible. I can't imagine visiting this cathedral and thinking one could paint it. What daring artistic vision.

CCTV? Someone's Ring camera? Citizen footage? Flock cameras, for goodness sake? It is unacceptable that agents' cameras were not turned on but other video has to exist.

This is what I'm doing today too. Making art is priceless but art products pay the bills. Carry on, Kate!

Look, the doctoral students I mentor are almost certainly unlikely to earn as much with a PhD as someone with a master plumber or electrical credential. So, no, education is not ever about earning power.

When the selkie returned to the beach, a man was holding her sealskin. "Is this yours?" he asked. "May I borrow it?" "You want to be a seal?" "No, but when I take it off, I'll be a woman, right?" "My heart, you already are," the selkie said. "That skin is mine, but I can help you find yours."

This thread points out something I never considered despite Midwest US familiarity with many examples of the family: that squirrels and groundhogs are close kin. Thanks for enlightening me!

My backdoor is open in summer. Houseflies find their way in. My dogs objected when I hunted them down - spaniels don't like violence! So I switched to catching "bugs" one by one in a jar and moving them back outside. I can feel the approval from my dogs every time & I feel good too. Be happy, bug!

One tends to think of reinforcement only from the "recipient's" point of view: If I do this, will they do what I want them to? But reinforcement is really about who you are when you are applying a reinforcement strategy. Who are you and who do you want to be? Managing relationships is about that.
