OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG. I thought this would be a pipe dream. This is an insanely incredible hire by CDC and the Texas Longhorns. #HookEm

A large (maybe 3 feet wide by 5 feet tall) sign on the end of a row of bookshelves that tells the “address” of books that have sensitive content.

Sometimes I think it’s going to be the librarians who will save us all.

My biggest gripe with today's AWS outage is that it took enough stuff down that I can't do my work to full completion, but not enough stuff down for me to just close my laptop and do nothing.

Can someone at Amazon just unplug the whole thing? Just make it a clean break and we start over tomorrow.

Austin firefighters say they could have saved lives in Kerrville if chief sent crews sooner Firefighters say an internal department policy prevented them from responding ahead of the floods. They will hold a vote of no-confidence against the chief next week.

There's probably a lot more going on under the surface, but I continue to be amazed by Austin's Fire Department and their unrelenting pursuit to serve and protect the community.

Just the mindset blows my mind.

"There's danger. People need us. We're going."

Stephen is good people. Genuinely the kindest and smartest person I've ever met. Vote for Stephen.

THE POPE CALLS IT "SOCCER"

This isn't hypothetical.

The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

NBA Coach -> Team President of Basketball Operations -> President of the United States. I see the plan here.

OMG. I'm not even a Mavericks or NBA fan and even I know just how much Luka meant to the fanbase.

Seriously, how do I get a job like this where I have no competency or awareness and still make millions? Unreal....

Geez. That's a huge stressor! Glad it worked out though!

A more innocent time, before the threat of penguins forced his hand

Lifetime contract to Vic. Now. #hookem

It's 2025 and companies are still emailing me pdfs for me to print out and sign. Thanks Donald.

NFL teams can’t use Bluesky Bluesky isn’t ready for game day yet.

This feels very parental, like a parent telling a teen they can't have a certain social media account. www.theverge.com/2025/1/22/24...

Same. I've actively ignored political news since Election Day. Will continue to do so until 2028.

Maybe a 18 G+A rate would be fair? Though I get him occupying space/defenders can also be valuable.

I get the excitement but I can't help be remain incredibly muted about Vazquez. #AustinFC has such a terrible record with DP signings that I'm worried that they're paying the premium for his past production vs what he will do.

If he doesn't net 15+ goals in 2025, can't help but feel ATX overpaid.

I've basically given up and just communicate facts and try to provide no opinions about anything. If I do have one, I keep it very muted and quickly change the subject.

Took my youngest to a salon to get her hair done. Shampoo, full blow dry and scalp massage are standard services included, so naturally she was very excited.
Wife: [Youngest] loved it! Here's a picture of her new hairdo. [Attaches several pics]
Mom: I can't see a difference.
Me: 🙄🙄🙄

Sister got bumped from her flight and had an overnight stay.
Sister: This hotel is LUXURIOUS and wonderful. [Attaches video]
Dad: The decor doesn't look that luxurious.
Me: 💀💀💀

Texting with Hong Kong parents can be brutal. Even though they are fluent in English and educated in England, their Canto communication side always shines through.

Here's a sample from my recent trip back home:

I'm in Hong Kong and the game kicked off at 2am local time. I woke up in time to watch the last two minutes of the 4th quarter and not sure how everyone who got to watch that whole game didn't age a thousand years. Also Ewers is that dude. 🤘🏻
