“Kony 2026: We’ll get him this time 😡”

I’m in

Right now I’m working on the annual USG report that checks on this. As of last week, still at large

He’s still out there, we could still get him

Every day of life under Trump is waking up to a headline like, “Wyoming is missing”

whyyyyy does it look like that?

I’ve always thought they should have an express lane for people who want drip coffee, but I’d have to be pretty far down my list of grievances before writing a whole op-ed about it

Exactly, exactly

I don’t know how VAPs at Cambridge acquire shoes, but I must assume it’s 1) the thrift shop or 2) they are inherited from their aristocratic parents, idk

I know what European professors make, and especially in the UK, it’s not New Leather Shoes money. He also didn’t accurately describe anything about the duties or rank of the position, which contributed to the full picture a bit, but the shoes stuck in my craw!

I was at a conference where a foreign spy was outed, partly because he claimed to be a VAP at Cambridge and was wearing new Italian leather shoes. I clocked it right away and said nothing, but a mathematician from MI6 just pointed it out in front of everybody

I’m freaking out! Haven’t bought a single seed yet this year!

For context, I wanted to be an astronaut my whole life and applied in every cycle that opened until I was 34

I went to two, one was a space-themed science camp at a small university, the other was real space camp. I liked the science one much better!

I do not appreciate it when my friends become medical marvels

Girl! This sucks!

two years, give or take

how... how did you know

I mean, enough has already been released that basically anybody could release a set of very plausible documents

wow I do not like that

Cool. Cool cool cool.

That’s so young! I thought they were still doing parallel play at that time.

Also, this is like, so hard? Really cuts right to deep insecurities, in my case

How old is he? We got feedback like that, and I’m still not sure what, if anything, I can really do about it. They seem to play with other kids fine when I’m watching! We have play therapy here, but it hasn’t been suggested

One owned a hardware store and then later in life became a home builder, the other worked in the facilities department of a hospital. My step-grandpa, who married my grandma long before I was born, fought Nazis right up close, and would have rightly haunted me for a stupid Nazi tattoo

Works in lots of fields. I wanted to read a law paper about expanding the use of Magnitsky sanctions, and the author both sent it and connected to me on LinkedIn

I’m from Kansas City, and this checks out completely to me

Also local news shows prurient violence that’s not local! I banned my parents from turning it on in my house bc it showed a guy getting set on fire by a cop three time zones away just because there was video of it

You have to hope this specific job gets entirely displaced by AI

I have literally, multiple times in the last week said, “You know those secret fake police stations China has all over the world that they use as a base to intimidate their citizens living abroad?” And no one knows! I sound like a freak
