When I moved to Southern California I signed up for a beach volleyball course with Parks & Rec. During a game in Manhattan Beach I saw a vicious brawl between surfers and cops on the pier. No one else was shocked; they all saw the craft services tent nearby. What a midwesterner.
I was innocently walking on campus one day when I see a bunch of cool cars and a few people dressed in the 40s clothes.
I thought a cool student group has a fashion show or something (Berkeley has awesome student groups)
Until someone starts yelling at me that I should get out of the way. Turns out I was in the middle of the @OppenheimerFilm movie scene.

If there was ever a time I wanted people to retweet something - A vaccine specialist, Dr. Paul Offit, spells out how RFK Jr. played a role in discouraging vaccination rates in a small population. A measles outbreak followed which resulted in 83 deaths mostly of young children.
The the people who say “guns don’t kill people; people kill people,” I say fine, America doesn’t have a gun problem; it has a gun nut problem. Either way, the solution is the same. Buy back old guns and make it harder to buy new ones.

Elon Musk is like a Scooby Doo villain who dresses up as a ghost to scare everyone away from the theme park but forgets that his business is theme parks – at Lewisham, London
Attention grammatical navel gazers!
Why do we say “a history” but “an historical account?” Is it because the first syllable in history is accented but the first in historical is not? And do we say “an” for a secondary accent too? So, “a hysterectomy” but “an hypothesis”?
And “a hypothetical” and “a heliport” but “an hereditary disease” and “an hallucination.” How bizarre to choose an article based on whether a syllable is unaccented versus having a primary or secondary accent.
British people, do you follow this stupid rule too? Or do you just drop all the H’s except for “herb” and the letter “haitch”? (@petewarden @MafVosburgh @PhDrRichardson)
Good to know. But the MAGA dingbats will assume it’s a deep-state coverup because it conflicts with their outrage profile.
Strongly worded column by @hiltzikm that says an honest reading of DNI's covid-19 origins report undermines the major assertions made by the "lab leak" theorists. And he takes news organizations to task for credulity. latimes.com/business/story/2…
This photo suggests that Apple will be able to create a Vision model more like swim goggles than a ski mask.
Nodding so enthusiastically the ripples from my dad-chins are propagating through my whole dad-bod.
