I was playing some random geo-guessing game the other day and thought a bird range version would be fun, so I made it. Flyway: five birds a day. Drop a pin where each one is this month. Easy to hard each day. Free, no account needed: flyway.gg

Time for my favorite end-of-school year tradition: I write an email thanking amazing teachers for all they’ve done for our kids and name several specifics that made a difference in their learning. And I CC the principal.

There was a 40 year period in history when samurai, pirates, and cowboys all technically existed at the same time.
What is your favorite historical fact?

We just made an app that walks you through designing a novel protein with AI from scratch. Takes about 5 minutes, requires zero biology knowledge. ➡️ design-a-protein.com The best part: we will actually synthesize 1000 of those protein designs in the lab and test their real world function as a therapeutic.

As someone who lives in Minneapolis, it’s hilarious to see how much hate we get from MAGA online — only to walk out my door every day to see a beautiful, vibrant, and peaceful city. This is live from St. Anthony Main tonight, right outside my apartment. Best city in America. 🇺🇸

If Byron Buxton stays healthy, and Royce Lewis doesnt stink and his muscles stay attached to his bones, and Matt Wallner hits like a human instead of a moose, and Luke Keaschall's bones don't break, and Austin Martin plays like the top prospect he once was, and Brooks Lee can actually hit, and Ryan Jeffers isn't terrible at the plate, and Joe Ryan's back doesn't tighten up, and Mick Abel instantly becomes an All-Star, and Bailey Ober can hit 91 mph on the radar gun, and Taj Bradley is at least so-so, and Cole Sands turns into Eric Gagne, I think the Twins could be pretty good this season.

Train Dreams might not have won any awards last night. But this film is like an antidote to our dopamine-addicted world. Slow down your scroll for a moment and just sit with this for a moment. Here’s to the slow work of beauty in transforming the human heart.

In my appearance on the Diary of a CEO podcast, I gave Steven Bartlett a fascimile copy of Papyrus 46 — our earliest evidence of a collection of Paul’s letters. In that particular manuscript page it contained a section of Romans 12. Take a look at P46 on the updated @CSNTM website collections.csntm.org/manusc….

I firmly believe that we can literally feel the amount of handmade human care put into something. That’s why the old animated films often feel like they have more “soul.” That is the expression of human care you’re sensing. I hope we don’t lose this. teapawt.org/fluxfolio_/status/2030…

⚡️You are not here to feel good. You are here to become real. Rock bottom is the moment the old self can no longer pay for its own lies. The performance collapses. The cope collapses. The identity you used to survive stops working. That feels like death because it is a kind of death. The deepest part is this. The pain is trying to carve you into shape. Suffering turns destructive when it drives you into isolation, pushes you into lying, numbs you out, hardens you, and makes you quit on yourself and others. Suffering turns transformative when it strips away your excuses, forces you into honesty, and pressures you to choose your character on purpose. So if you are at the edge, hear this. Your life is a vote about what reality is. Every time you choose truth over the easy lie, you vote. You are building a soul the way you build a muscle. Under load. Under pain. Under repetition. You do not get one heroic moment. You get a thousand small refusals to surrender to the void. Do one thing today that restores agency. Tell one person the truth. Clean one corner. Take the walk. Eat the meal. Make the call. The real enemy is the story that says nothing matters. Do not let that story write your ending.
To any who survived rock bottom… what’s one piece of advice you’d give a someone who feels like giving up right now?

"Take off their masks. End their immunities. Limit their jurisdiction. Restrain their tactics. All of this can be done through legislation without inhibiting humane immigration enforcement. And if it’s done correctly, legislative reform can lead to greater accountability across the whole of government." nytimes.com/2026/01/26/opini…
