Don’t tell his mom, but I’m secretly training my kid to be the Coyote who actually takes out his Road Runner. ACME discipline. Real-world physics. Maybe no TNT. 🧨

Teaching my toddler the word “doppelgänger” in case his brother is born with a cat allergy and he needs a non-ableist way to say “stop copying me.”

Just thinking about how funny it would’ve been if, right after saying “The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff,” Carl Sagan had ripped a massive fart.
My kid may or may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but you can certainly tell he wants it.
A lot of people hate trigger warnings—not me. I think they’re a helpful tool; I just think we’re using them wrong. I don’t need a heads-up that a movie’s ending is a real bummer.
Things got pretty sentimental telling my son he’s going to be a big brother. But there are practical concerns too. Lotta logistics. Double the car seats. Double the daycare. And a preternaturally verbal witness to silence if we ever want to successfully convince the new one he’s adopted.
It’s a cool biological adaptation that just as boys get old enough to stop absolutely coating their faces in food every meal, they begin to grow facial hair. Like somehow evolution just knows that male faces are genetically gross when directly exposed to the elements.
It’s time to admit that a small but apparently non-trivial part of my child’s cognitive development will be determined by the fact that sometime in the early ’90s I happened to watch Benny and Joon on VHS.
It’s important to give your kids a healthy sense of self-esteem. Sometimes that means helping them with a puzzle and congratulating them like they did it themselves. Sometimes it means stuffing them in a sack and calling them a leg genius.
I think it’s hard to argue that if you say “what up dog” and a dog immediately gets up, you’re not doing something right. Right?
As a millennial father, I feel it’s my duty to end each night by imparting one drop of foundational life wisdom gleaned from all those hours spent with my best and only childhood friends, the X-Men. Tonight’s lesson: “people fear what they don’t understand.”
The #Canes have had to manufacture their own intensity this week, but they’ve done a good job of doing so. From small ice games to upping the competitiveness in drills, they’ve continued to look like a well-oiled machine.
#Ukraine's robot gunner DevDroid TW 12.7 blocked Russians advancing into Kupiansk for SIX WEEKS. Ukrainian forces stunningly managed to lose only one soldier for every 27 Russian troops they killed during the grueling battle for Kupiansk.
Beach Patrol, Hole 3 🌊 Curved throw, looked perfect — actually a few metres wide, then bounced away. False hope is real 😬 #DiscGolf #UrbanDiscGolf

Pizza Margherita is a classic Italian pizza. Story has it that in 1889, King Umberto I & Queen Margherita of Italy visited Naples. A famous pizza maker named Raffaele Esposito was tasked to the royal couple. He made 3 diff. types, & the queen's favorite was the 1 made w/ tomato, mozzarella & basil

More Sunday morning truths. Far too many American "Christian" churches are more about maintaining and expanding political power, control, and money than actually preaching and practicing the teachings of Jesus.
