Surely enough people have cats that grocery stores could make bouquets of cat-safe flowers? Roses are great but I’d like some variety. Also I know I have to be very careful with cut flowers because my cat will MONCH on whatever’s in the vase

@GalaxyKate does your generative methods curriculum include support for the artists who suddenly feel less useful? I was just about to start more of these paintings in other colors when I realized how easily you could make a computer make a similar image…cue existential crisis

Me: I wonder if they could make a nonalcoholic Malort?
Husband: I think that’s called “chewing on moss.”

I simply must start working on a game about painting with narrative themes of self-worth and confidence so I can call it Impasto Syndrome

If you were writing a Chicago-set romcom, where in the city would your lovebirds meet?

@code_coven I’m confused. The application page says it closes tomorrow, Monday September 12?

Both pianists and geneticists can tell when a task is going to be particularly challenging, for the same reason: low GC content.

It’s rough to be a wrestling fan when you get queasy at the sight of blood. Anyway how is #AEWDynamite #BloodandGuts going?

We often dismiss tools that make cooking accessible, calling them lazy or gross. This attitude is everywhere—but it's especially pronounced when it comes to garlic.

For @TheWalrus, I wrote about the casual ableism in food culture. The Garlic Essay:

Listening to the very good new @JukeboxtheGhost album (Brass Band and Everybody Panic are my favs). I too need someone to take my phone out of my hands and panicking one at a time because people have jobs feels like peak capitalist America.

My friends and I made a game about a penguin saving his house from climate change for Ludum Dare in the new Extra format. We decided to make it in Godot which we had not used before. The game is finicky but the process turned out to be pretty fun. Enjoy! https://t.co/EQg8WgrbCF

@AndrewScarpelli I feel that. I recently started seeing a dietitian and she told me about intuitive eating. You basically use techniques to slow down eating so you realize when you're full in time. Focus on flavor, put down the fork between bites, stuff like that.

[Jordan Harrison @Jordan_charr]

@AndrewScarpelli @NoraMunro I'll give in your stead Andy. I have such a strong vasovagal response that I usually have trouble giving blood but this is a crisis level shortage that I can work past that.

I loved Hatchet as a kid despite not being an outdoorsy person. RIP.

[All Things Considered @npratc]

Gary Paulsen, best known for his stories about wilderness survival, died Wednesday at the age of 82. Paulsen wrote more than 200 books during his lifetime, and three of his novels, 'Hatchet,' 'Dogsong' and 'The Winter Room,' were Newbery Honor books.

Question from my husband: do you know who Frank Lloyd Wright is without googling?
