Kid is on a roll with making up (?) jokes: What do you call a monster that is 1/2 mummy, 1/2 skeleton? A mummskull. What do you call a horse that lives next door? A naaay-bor.

The term “evolution” unfortunately has strong eugenicist connotations. Realized beings like Buddha and Jesus emphasize not the need to become something different but to realize what we already are.

Loosing a lot of respect for people who are jumping on the FBI’s bandwagon to pin the Jan 6th (dud) pipe bombs on an obviously innocent autistic person.

Please get a wider diversity of sources on this case before jumping to conclusions. Brian Cole Jr is very similar to other young adult autistic men I know. They would all say whatever they had to say to just be left alone and protect their loved ones.

He is a 30 year old autistic man who has always lived at home. The FBI didn’t bother to find and arrest him until after a journalist recently published an alternative theory about who did it. The FBI picked him up because it is easier to get false confessions from autistic people.

Tinfoil set into a small circular hole. Inside the hole the tinfoil is smooth but the lip around the hole is crinkled. Laid across the top of the hole are two words cut out of some paper or card packaging. The words are “molten” and “juices”.

One of the good things about being in a community with an R1 university is that you are likely to know some top research scientists and realize how boneheaded they can be about basic science. Demystifying and equalizing. Sometimes depressing and annoying.

Does not inspire confidence in the data security service when tech podcasters voice their data security ads with, “I googled myself and my data is everywhere, that’s why I use [service].” Yeah, sounds like it is working great! Probably an intentional warning and they are just taking the ad $$.

Sometimes during slow motion tag, my child throws a pillow at my feet to trip me (allowed in out house rules) while I am at the top of the stairs and I have to fall down the stairs in slow motion. This is how it ends. It’s not my favorite part of the game.

If you are going to call yourself a leader: -Did the people you lead choose you as a leader? -Do they have a safe and viable way to depose you? -Are they motivated to please you because you have power to grant or deny things they need? You may be a boss, not a leader.

As a #Quaker who has stood for equal treatment of all humans within Quaker institutions, I am sad to report that among #Quakers, even the most obvious and basic implications of following this principle are controversial to the point of violent conflict.

Divine and evil beings definitely and truly exist as enduring metaphorical representatives of real experiences that people do have and which inform how people act in the world. Whether or not they are "real" in some simplistic rationalist sense doesn't matter as much as what real effects they have.

This is not quite right (and also should be applied to itself). MLK did seek to legislate and have those laws enforced. Our motives have a lot to do with whether or not force is applied in a punitive manner. Exhaust all nonviolent options first, then prevent oppression by the minimum force required.

Supremacist reasoning doesn’t make sense if you are not a supremacist. People operating from opposite root beliefs often cannot understand each other. You have to get right to the root and destroy it before you can make progress. Jewish supremacy and White supremacy are both rooted in hate and fear.
