After a post I just wrote, I feel compelled to summarize it in many of my other feelings.

I do not care: if you are tall, short, straight, gay, bi, trans, something else I don't understand or even know of, blue-eyed, brown-eyed, thin, fat, black, white, red, yellow, Left-Handed, right-handed

You guys should all get together and do an international chat show. The Cephalopodcast.

(Great until all the snail freaks create the Gastropodcast, they're slimy.)

On the bus to the final day of the squid conference, I can hear people speaking Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, & English in 3 different accents. And we all work on squid octopus and cuttlefish 🥹

I know this is literally how international conferences work, but I just think that’s so wonderful.

Yes, yes, yes

Astronomical time still matters to the body.

And, DST is not observed near the equator. DST would exacerbate deltas Asia which are already silly. (TYO, HKG, KL/SG, Jakarta.)

📒 NEW STUDY: “Permanent Daylight Saving Time hinders the stability of circadian rhythms, posing public health risks, especially for adolescents and evening chronotypes.” 👉 Permanent Standard Time is needed instead!

When you're right, you're right.

3 panel cartoon of a figure demanding of a 2nd figure that they must move toward a nazi to win the center. in the third panel, the 1st figure moves to the right of the Nazi, and as he passes says "on your right." the first figure, who has not moved, looks back to see that he is standing the the right of the sign that says 'the center" with an arrow pointing off panel to the left.

#Sleep is a weird thing... 😉

We used to sleep in 2 parts, it seems. 🤔

Why we used to sleep in two segments – and how the modern shift changed our sense of time

There’s a reason you sometimes wake up in the middle of the night.

I thought heartbreak was a kind of bread.

I mean one does break bread. Especially when they're seeking carbs after an emotionally fraught event.

I proudly support both an anti-pajama agenda and libraries.

Other than sex, what can you do in bed that's better reading while naked?

My name is Jim and I support this message.

Don't listen to Jim, this is anti-pajama propaganda

Interesting fact. Libraries count on a certain percentage of their books being out on loan. If everyone brought their library books back at once, the library wouldn’t have the shelf space for them all.

Bolivians have nominal Tias and Tios. And, "political cousins" - age peers that come from close but unrelated families.

I bet it's pretty common to use that phrase across Latin America.

I'm Filipino.

I have a LOT of aunts and uncles (titas and titos), the vast majority of whom are NOT my biological aunts or uncles.

It's a term of respect.

That sucks.

Dad was a university prof...he knew

Mom did not finish her final semester as she was very pregnant with me... She understood.

They met at a Jesuit liberal arts school. (Ultimately the same one where my brother met his wife.)

That's not to say my family is not severely fucked up...

🇺🇸🌺 Cranky Cloud Yeller on Borneo 🌺🇲🇾 @subjunction.bsky.social · 3d

The Jesuit liberal arts school I attended would not let one declare a major until after their 2nd year. A VERY wise policy.

Saved me for sure.

Physics, German, Sociology, Philosophy... Economics!

Life long decisions made at 16 are an absurd concept.

Liberal Arts deserve a lot more love.

If you live in L.A., you have choices.

(Personally, I would choose a taco truck over any place with anglos working in it for my ethnic food...)

Sometimes relative numbers are more revealing and important than absolute ones...

Summary of the Google results showing that Dearborn Michigan has the highest proportion of Muslims among its population of any city in the United States. 55%.

Very much so. Like Ferrari, Haas uses this as part of his marketing budget.

The only difference is, that it's all of Ferrari's marketing budget. You'll never see an ad for them.
