“Today, the man wearing red got on the subway, he opened his folder and started reading. 🧐
A few stops later a man got on and asked him “what are you studying for? You look confused, maybe I can help?”
He said my son just failed a math test, and I am re-studying fractions so I can teach him. I am 42 years old and I don’t remember any of this, so I am reteaching myself.
The guy in the black informed him that he use to be a math teacher, and would help quiz him.
Everything the man in the red got wrong, it was broken down and corrected for him.
By the end of the train ride, the man had a better understanding.
He had a new method to come home with to teach his son.
It’s the little things like this that I love seeing, because most people could care less about what the person next to them is going through.

@LakotaMan1 I don’t find this offensive at all. It is a reminder of a sadness we can never repay. It is a symbol to never repeat that pattern. It is scream to remember they existed and that we SEE their their children’s children’s children. May we always remember!
Forget-me-not fun fact: the yellow ring at the flower’s centre fades to white after pollination, signalling to insects there’s no more nectar. The insects therefore learn to visit the flowers that haven’t yet been pollinated, ensuring no forget-me-not flower is forgotten 🤙
I'm just a dad, sitting in a dentist's office at 7 a.m. for an appointment for all four girls that I forgot about until I got a reminder text that woke me up 20 minutes ago, cradling my egg grandchild from my daughter's health class encased in cotton balls and sponges in a cup.
Bees of the genus Tetragonula construct tall nests that spiral clockwise, their geometry astonishing for years
similar mathematical algorithms appear in how mollusks make nacre (mother of pearl and how crystals form in a spiral

@megannn_lynne Does pants nibble the tree? Our kittens Jet and Omelette are brown to chewing/eating things so we’ve opted to hang a tapestry of a tree this year. I’ll miss our tree!
@KellyTKPK @theheatherhogan I had a preschooler tell me he was “practicing to be a people.” I’ve avoided getting sucked into many a power struggle with kids acting out by telling myself, “Oh, they’re still just practicing to be a people.”
@jimmyfallon A man grabs his dining room chair on his way out the door. Arrives at destination. Boom. Chairman of the party. #LastMinuteCostume it’s re-usable AND practical for tired legs!
