But maybe, just maybe, short traumatized women should not be the bravest soldiers on the front lines against men being dickheads in public. Maybe that should be their peers.

Nobody warns you that part of raising a kid multilingual is sometimes they come home from school and stomp around calling "Madame" in a thick French accent whenever they need help.

So many autistic/neurodivergent women (which I bet describes a LOT of women in the Silicon Valley AI scene) report being *specifically* targeted by sexual predators who take advantage of their issues with reading social situations. Which is why I loathe the “oh, those poor autistic men” excuse.

Something very delightful about hearing a child who took an extra year to think about talking very earnestly trying to pronounce funicular and recognizing different semaphore rail signals

Honestly, it's one of those crosses the line twice type things that go so far, it becomes funny instead of offensive. Yeah, we killed thousands of people, caused an energy crisis, and destabilized an entire region. But do you really want your kid to have a stuffed shark and programmer socks?

Last night, we lost our perfect, little eel of a cat. So pour one out for a fucked up lil guy who travelled longer distances than most humans in all of history, by car, plane, train, and even boat. This bitch was amazing, and there's never gonna be another like her.

I once stabbed a goblin made of cardboard dressed as a halfling rogue in a rock musical about a DnD party in the upper floors of the Kennedy Center during the 48 hour musical festival as part of the free summer city theater fest They just opened up to whole theater companies to do wild, silly art.

I feel like there's a whole thing we could look at here- which Gerasimov is more terrifying to the modern analyst?

"Skibidi Toilet (stylized in all lowercase) is an animated web series created by Alexey Gerasimov and released through YouTube videos and Shorts on his channel, skibidi (formerly DaFuq!?Boom!). Produced using Source Filmmaker, the series follows a war between toilets with human heads coming out of their bowls and humanoid characters with electronic devices, such as cameras, for heads."
Then there is a screenshot of the horrible head in a toilet.

"The Gerasimov Doctrine, named after Valery Gerasimov, the Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, is a hypothesized military doctrine of hybrid warfare used by Russia. The doctrine puts interstate conflict and warfare on par with political, economic, informational, humanitarian, and other non-military activities."

Then there is a photo of Gerasimov in uniform looking stern.

I feel like I’m on fraud watch as an international relations scholar because I honestly kinda don’t fucking know why this country does anything anymore. If you held a gun to my head and demanded to know why we’re at war with Iran or feuding with Canada or want Greenland, I’d say the Lord’s Prayer.

Folks in the UK, I have time to pick up picture books this week and need recommendations for the best books for little kids about trains, trams, buses, and metro systems. What do you recommend? Fiction is fine but please imagine you're reading them to a silent, hyper-focused, 90cm tall engineer.
