30 years ago, in January 1996, I was 16 years old. My love for science & astronomy had been strong since I was very young, but in Jan. ‘96, something very important happened, both for astronomy in general & for me personally. NASA released the Hubble Deep Field science.nasa.gov/asset/hubble....

I’ve learned two things building my Christmas gift: 1. This LEGO build is super nerdy accurate to scale/accuracy/fun. 2. I have accumulated way too many OG Gameboys that I largely forgot about until this build.

Happy 40th birthday to Bill Waterson’s ‘Calvin and Hobbes’. A work of consummate, stubborn, human, and more-than-human art.

It’s still remarkable that Disney produced - and released - this segment in 1940. A horror short that should rank with its Universal monster movie contemporaries… The animation is lush and experimental, and really shows off the Disney special animated effects team…

Yesterday we talked a little bit about SNAP ending and how everyone who can, should give back to their communities. I'm going to spend a little time today talking about what to give.

I just survived the afternoon in downtown Chicago with my family. It was INSANE! We ended up taking shelter at The Sugar Factory, then risked it all ducking into the LEGO Store. Then, and I really don’t know how, we safely made it (with all our purchases) back to the River Walk. Plz send troops!

@theonion.com back in 2000 I took a vacation to England and I brought a dozen+ copies of the print Onion with me and randomly left them on the London Tube in hopes it would either make or confuse a Brits day. I just subscribed to Onion print again in hopes of doing that again, somewhere, someday. 🍻
