I’m pretty sure I work with each of these guys, but in different departments.

May this picture of the hobbits having dinner together be a blessing upon your twitter feed.

This made for a bit of a wild Sunday.

Some good food for thought, especially if you need to zoom out from a narrow focus on certain topics today.

For the love of god, politically interested people, when your friends and family ask what can be done about the Supreme Court, don't say "nothing."

There are, moldering away in the Constitution, ways to check the court's power that every American needs to become familiar with.🧵

I leave it to you to come up with a caption!

@Osomatic I like this tweet very mulch.

[Amanda Holm @smellsofdetroit]

@lshultz82 Yeah, that seems bad. It’s right near my sister’s house, and is the main way she and her spouse get to work (thankfully they are away in FL this month).

[Amanda Holm @smellsofdetroit]

@Osomatic Stir! And good lord, I didn’t realize the other option was POURING OUT PART OF A DELICIOUS THING. I thought it was “scoop without bothering to stir.”

[Amanda Holm @smellsofdetroit]

@JustAMathGuy @Jeopardy @faBioethics Three years? Feels like not a day over thirty. Cheers to all!

[Amanda Holm @smellsofdetroit]

Y’know how when you’re out walking or whatever in the cold, eventually all of you will warm up except your pinkie fingers? I’m thinking that’s your body deciding what parts it can sacrifice first.

@KosherSoul Pierogi, kielbasa, galumpki, pirozhki, chrusciki. Grew up in western Michigan. Mom’s family was Polish, you’ll be shocked to learn.

[Amanda Holm @smellsofdetroit]

@BackesEric @_thejeopardyfan I can say that @faBioethics is a dang delight as well. (As is @JustAMathGuy , my second game’s other competitor.)
