Sooooo…this stinks… Literally. Our basement (aka my studio and office) flooded with a sewage backup yesterday. 🤢

I started streaming again today. Played Fortnite with my kiddos and a little RDR2 on my own. I missed that, even if it’s mostly just speaking out into the void (when I’m not breaking up sibling squabbles over loot.)

Something about Super 8 footage of your first family Disney World trip that just hits different. Wandering through Magic Kingdom, drifting through EPCOT, and watching the kids light up on Peter Pan’s Flight, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Haunted Mansion. Fireworks over Cinderella Castle.

I recently started DMing @dndbeyond.com games and these were some of my biggest fears. Then I went to Dungeon Master University and conquered them and here is how! #ttrpg #dungeonsanddragons www.instagram.com/p/DTiYm5BERl...

WWE could have sold out a stadium, made tickets more affordable, and still made absolute bank for Cena’s last match.

Next time someone responds to your pro wrestling fandom with “you know it’s fake, right?” act like you really didn’t know. 10/10 experience.

Want my hot take? If I've learned anything working in education for 16+ years it's that, in all of our conversations about "student-centered" education, we've lost sight of being "teacher-centered." #edtech #educationaltechnology #teachers #education #school

Unpopular Opinion: Honestly, people get worried about using too many exclamation points in communications, but I think a lack of exclamation points is far worse.

You know how I learned to stop worrying so much about what other people say or think about me? Once you realize people are going to accuse you of "caring too much" and "caring too little" about something, it becomes clear that you're never going to please everyone.

Here's how, at 40 years old, I embraced my cringe. Ever made this face when going back through your old social media? Yep, me too. You know what that means? Someone probably cringed when I posted it. So next time you're worried about cringe, remember that if everything is cringe, nothing is.

Nick Schiner | STAY PLAYING NICK @stayplayingnick.com · 10/07/2025

Ever feel like you'd feel so much better if you cried, so you put on Dashboard Confessional and even that doesn't work? Me neither.

I, for one, cannot wait to welcome our condiment overlords. This wasn't a slip of the tongue. This was a sitting Secretary of Education being completely unaware of one of the most paradigm-shifting technologies in history and education. #EduSky #EduSkyAI www.theverge.com/news/646287/...

They’re putting A1 in the classrooms.

Secretary of Education Linda McMahon was on a panel to discuss artificial intelligence in the workforce — and pronounced “AI” as “A1” — like the steak sauce — when talking about teaching methods. That...

I got kicked out of the "Parenting in a Tech World" group (it's sponsored by a company with a vested interest in terrifying parents) for not being a tech alarmist. 🤣

BIG POST DAY! I've been holding off talking about this. I have a fiction book out next month! "What Was Hidden" It's about Journalism, YouTube, Ultra Running and how (often against the odds) technology can connect us. Please share! Also, DM to join my inner circle of early readers & reviewers.

I’m honestly disappointed in myself for not realizing #WWE2K25 doesn’t have The Island mode on the PC version. Totally missed that in the marketing. Honestly didn’t really have plans to engage with it, but disappointed in myself for not paying attention. 😂
