Unfortunately the answer is either Hulu, Discovery+, or taking a weekend trip to a small Midwestern city and watching Food Network on their basic cable

Air Canada has daily flights to HND and NRT from YYZ that depart 5 minutes apart and, as far as I can tell, almost always depart from adjacent gates. I guess you get to Tokyo either way, but when I experienced it a few weeks ago it was... chaos

The number of times I've had to explain to IT professionals that the entire idea of a public key is that it is public and thus does not need to be treated like the nuclear football is... too many

Going to convince the tech bros of America to think vaccines are cool again by rebranding them as disease microdosing. "Ever since I started microdosing the flu once a year I've never been healthier"

This happened to me at a cafe in Tokyo when I was there a few weeks ago and I was so sad that I had to come home 🥲

UPDATE: Following the firing of the director of the student newspaper, Indiana University has now cut the print edition of the newspaper entirely.

Indiana University cuts IDS print entirely, hours after firing student media director
By IDS staff
Oct 15, 2025 1:23 pm · Updated Oct 15, 2025 1:23 pm

IU previously directed the Indiana Daily Student to stop printing news coverage in our newspaper. Upon pushback, the university fully cut print, including our special editions. The IDS was not involved in the decision.

Media School Dean David Tolchinsky sent the order to IDS leadership in an email responding to its appeal that the school not censor the newspaper. And the dean attributed the decision to “the campus.” He has not yet responded to a message for clarification.

i’ve posted some version of this many times so i finally decided to make my case for it: taxing the rich is not only good for us. it is good for them. having a billion dollars is like toxic waste for your soul. we can and should remove it from them. it’s the loving thing to do!

There is no logical reason for people to live like this. We should help them.

If there’s one thing about student journalists it’s that they know their rights and they are going to fight for them.

"...the poor are promised only a few 'drops' that trickle down, until the next global crisis brings things back to where they were. A genuine form of alienation is present when we limit ourselves to theoretical excuses instead of seeking to resolve the concrete problems of those who suffer."

Accidentally fell asleep at 9:30 last night, so my body was ready to go at 6:45 today. Did you all know there’s a thing called “morning”? When you can observe something called a “sunrise” on a “chilly fall day” with a cup of “coffee”? I thought it was fake all these years but is apparently real.

People think it’s silly or odd when I talk about coming out to myself and then coming out to God — but when you’ve been praying to be fixed for 4-5 years and realizing it’s not going to happen and that’s even better, it’s a major shift!

Jacob’s thread is great. I wasn’t given a book per se, but seriously considered going to Grove City College because Warren Throckmorton was there. I was *very* bought in to the mindset behind conversion therapy.

Jacob @jdilladog.bsky.social · 23d

I was lucky to never undergo formal conversion therapy, but I was given books about it (specifically "Light In the Closet") and absorbed a lot of the mindset. Beyond the suicidality it can push you to when you realize you can't change the way you want to, conversion therapy fucks with the way you

There are many reasons late-night convenience store runs don’t hit the same in America as they do in Japan, but chief among them is that they cost $20 rather than $4
