Flying Circuits

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

Agreed!

I (he/him) have gotten SO many social $ for simply stepping in to do the dishes at dinner parties; it's literally the least I can do and disturbing that it's not the norm.

Oof. 😔 And also with you.🙏🏻

As a country we simply love to fuck around and truly believe we will never find out

The world may suck, but it sucks less as long as anonymous weirdos are sending obscure niche art out into the ether.

A United regional CRJ achieving deliverance via the blessed green spray of multiple deicing trucks. Amen.

Listening to my fellow passengers gripe about our deicing delay, and remembering the wise words of my aero professor who spake thus: "the Top of the Wing is Sacred"🙏🏻

Asteroid defense mission shifted the orbit of more than its target The binary asteroid's orbit around the Sun was affected by the impact.

Big day for #DARTMission alums, as here’s some more work released today!

Remember how we said that yes, we were technically also changing Didymos’s orbit around the Sun, but by a small, unmeasurable amount?

So, it _was_ a very small amount but Rahil Makadia et al showed it was _not_ unmeasurable.

I'm still disappointed from way back when 🍎 changed from 🌈 to ⚪

Deal with it! 😎😂

I lack the words to capture it, but ... it's just endlessly remarkable to me that so many people in our society have chosen trans kis -- TRANS KIDS, the smallest, least significant, most vulnerable demographic slice you could possibly pick -- as a repository for all their fears & insecurities.

Ever Wanted To Know What It Smelled Like Before Getting Eaten By A T. Rex? Good News – You Can! London’s Natural History Museum had to swap out T. rex breath for “Maastrichtian Miasma” because it was too disgusting.

I spoke to @rachaelhfunnell.bsky.social yesterday about making synthetic T. rex breath for Sue’s exhibit!

Sign says honey I shrunk the kids taped to a glass window. Beneath it a tiny bear, axolotl, goose and flamingo

Then disaster struck.

This appeared in the atrium and the giant goose, bear(s), axolotl and flamingo are GONE

Which of these two arcades is the "world largest"—and does it matter? While semantics count for some, gamers win either way.

Yes, there are two arcades in the US labeled as the world’s largest, and while that may seem a bit paradoxical, a visit to both proves that while only one can be the biggest, both are the greatest.

Want to say FU to Musk and save worldwide skies from two supervillain plans to disfigure them?

SpaceX wants to launch a million sats. Reflect Orbital wants to provide "sunlight on demand" using huge space mirrors.

A four-panel comic strip featuring Millie and her Mom, two foxes. First panel: Millie: (in bed) "MAHHHHHHHM!" Second panel: Mom: "What is it, honey? Millie: "I had a really really bad dream!" Third panel: Millie: "I dreamed I had to come up with something funny to say EVERY DAY!!" Fourth panel: Mom: "That's a nightmare?" Millie: "Well, partly I just like to complain."

I think every cartoonist has drawn some version of this.

I wonder if you could update The West Wing for 2026 by adding a laugh track.

Good morning from @hookland.bsky.social

Thinking about a future archaeologist digging up one of my coffee mugs and authoring a paper on how I held it as I stirred it based on the scuff marks; opposite the handle for some reason. Good morning! 💀

“If you’re going to put your hand in your pocket during trial do it elegantly like Cary Grant would” I told my law students.

“Cary Grant” I repeated. Blank stares.

“George Clooney?” Stares.
