@DickDurbin as a person raised in Illinois, I am calling on you to initiate a joint resolution of disapproval (JRD) in light of Blinken's $20b weapons sale to Israel. Uphold the ICJ ruling - you have an opportunity to lead by standing up for what's right!

Folks in #makerspace or #woodworking with young people, how do you sort/store wood scraps? Because this is what we have after 12 weeks of summer camp, and...yikes.

Hey everyone, the person I've been staying with just found out they have covid on top of everything else. This means i have to quarantine and I'm being kicked out tomorrow. Any help for housing, or funds for a hotel?

[Eileen King @eyeleanking]

@korytellers Like I felt like I saw the ending coming a LONG way off, and as a person who had to come to terms a long time ago with the fact that I'll never get That Moment with my mom, I felt very *shrug* while everyone around me got teary. Y'know?

[Eileen King @eyeleanking]

@korytellers So...I LOVED the multiverse stuff - lots that felt fresh and clever. And all the acting awards were absolutely deserved. I also, frankly, thought it was 30 minutes too long.

@AldiUSA What if you keep the existing north Minneapolis store AND open a new one there? South Minneapolis has three ALDI stores...

[Eileen King @eyeleanking]

there's "this meeting could have been an email" painful and then there's "the stuff covered in this meeting ALREADY WAS in an email that apparently they didn't trust us to read?!" painful

@ziibiing The Immaculate Beings!

[Eileen King @eyeleanking]

Tacking an "if you have the capacity" onto something we both know you're telling me I have to do regardless is bullshit and only serves to make YOU feel better. Stop it.

[Eileen King @eyeleanking]

Just found a note in my Google Keep (that I do NOT remember) that says only "drill pressing through a pack of bologna," and I'm pretty sure I should get my #makerspace privileges revoked for that idea.

@guzdial @moenig @microblocksfun We've used makecode to control neopixel strips from both a micro:bit and the Adafruit circuit playground, and it looks like MicroBlocks can do the same!

@MarvelousMissC @hatchikerz @TMcD35004770 @isabeautiful @MarsMaven @james_t_webber @patchworkmouse @DrMikeWiser @Bi_Bicyclist @DarkEndWrites @UrsulaV Oh, no, I think you're thinking of leopards vs. jaguars. A mastodon is underground; it's a mammoth when it reaches the Earth's surface.

[Eileen King @eyeleanking]

This whole month has been one continuous "if I had spent half as much time just doing the thing as freaking out about doing the thing, it would already be over." What helps you interrupt that?

[Eileen King @eyeleanking]

@Omar4ur I bet! Cool. I'm fascinated by things that are (relatively) easy for people but hard for computers.

[Eileen King @eyeleanking]

@Omar4ur Dude, this is still super cool. Thanks for sharing!

[Eileen King @eyeleanking]

Wikipedia's List of Fictional Robots and Androids includes all four teletubbies. Is that...true?

Hello, I'm Reed. I'm publishing this press release today to tell you all about what I witnessed at the Near North encampment this morning and to amplify the voices of my neighbors, my friends, and my community in the face of violent displacement.

Second person also separated from her phone, and possibly the housing she was ready to move into and ABSOLUTELY all the suitcases she had packed to move in to the new house.

She tearfully told police this. You can hear her in this video.
