Basic foodstuffs are becoming unaffordable. The king’s vizier has been banished from court. The king is threatening war with the Danes over an island. We are living in medieval times.

It's been 30 years of A Goofy Movie, and 31 years since we briefly lived in Paris while my dad worked on it! Truly one of the coolest things as a kid, to hang out at the studio or watch pencil tests over dinner.♥️
Also eternally grateful to mom for secreting away a bunch of original model sheets:

My therapist recently found out that I've spent roughly ten years being yelled at by strangers on the internet and I've had a pretty hard time convincing her that it's fine.

A little while ago, my parents' cat Bridget went missing. As the weeks dragged on, they became extremely worried. My dad devised a way to distract himself: he began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up in some of art and music's most iconic scenes.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

I hope federally funded scientists are preparing for large scale, bad faith attacks by Musk and his troll army.
It’s pretty clear the DOGE operation is going to take snippets of grant proposals and papers, present them out of context, and direct weaponized harassment of individual people.

Makes me sad re-reading this amazing letter from ex-Watergate Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox sent to high school seniors in 1994 after they asked him “What should Americans learn from Watergate?” 20 years later in ‘94.
His answer is remarkable—unfortunately things didn’t work out so well in 2024.

Much of the money in this agreement climate negotiators reached in Baku will likely be structured as debt, even though, @zoeschlanger.bsky.social writes, that stands in the way of COP’s stated goals.

My other hot take is, instead of spending 10 billion to terraform Mars they could undo the damage from deforestation and clean the oceans here on Earth
