@atroyn This should be the top image result for Men at Work.

@LapsusLima @michaelcurzi What— no.

Task chairs are engineered to keep you sitting upright for long hours with good spine alignment, and to help you swivel around your desk. Reclining like a la-z-boy just isn’t what they’re built for.

@LapsusLima @lukeburgis A “good quest” is one that recognizes itself as a response to something greater: the recovery of a vanished relic, the rescue of a captured lover, the reconquest of a fallen kingdom.

While a mission is proactive, a quest is gloriously reactive.

@LapsusLima @atroyn …

Wouldn’t it be simpler to take out the single, largest piece inscribed within both forms, and then apply this technique only to the leftovers?

@LapsusLima Caribbean flamingo paradise had the same glow as Happy Gilmore’s happy place.

@EvaAeolus I have a soft spot in my heart for Esperanto.

Always inspired by M’s incisive writing. Her latest piece in this theater book is just brilliant! Proud husband moment.

@LapsusLima @dflieb I believe the local oncologist recalibrated my treatment using the Maya calendar, @dflieb.

Dina Boluarte:
The Peruvian government is not going to fall, not on my watch.

@LapsusLima @atroyn The Sphinx agrees.

[Peacock Angel of History @LapsusLima]

The divide is not modern/postmodern = ugly, classical = beautiful, Marc. That’s an ideological, not an aesthetic, isomorphism.

@renatrigiorese @callumflack Just a long overdue social media break.
No need to worry, but thanks. :)

I'm even more thrilled to have written it! The artificial cryosphere we've built for our food to live in has been my obsession for more than a decade & I cannot wait to share it with the world. Thanks @penguinpress for letting me dive so deep it seemed like I would never come up!

@atroyn Throughout history, the US mailman has been the epitome of physical prowess. Braving harsh weather, navigating treacherous terrain, and carrying heavy loads, they’ve been the unsung heroes holding together the country’s social fabric.

Fat mailman all the way.
