@coprolite9000 @futurebird I already have terrifying visions of a planet inhabited by cat-sized intelligent ants ready to venture out into the stars from following @futurebird …

@futurebird You are far bigger than and, and they make you do things. You don’t stand a chance against a cat.

@futurebird I’ve stumbled upon a few books that a past librarian purchased for their own needs and never got checked out by anyone before I did. There was a book on budget exhibit design that only I checked out over a period of years as student and alum.

@futurebird My brain stays stuck on the definition of computer from an early 20th century dictionary: A person, usually female, who performs computations, often with the help of a mechanical device.

@futurebird If they ever stop making arcade buttons, interactive exhibits in museums are doomed. Those things are just about perfection.

@futurebird The most memorable part of my HS graduation was my classmates correcting the mispronunciation of my last name when called (all in a very bored voice). When I worked as a sub, I made clear they could either try and pronounce it correctly or call me Mr. K and also apologized in advance for any mispronunciations during attendance and asked for corrections. (Most often use of teacher voice was when a middle school kid tried to get me to mispronounce another kids name.)

@futurebird Tell them from a distance. Some react to carbon dioxide.

@futurebird @ryanprior I sometimes joke with my children that mathematicians work very hard to find the lazy ways to do things.

@Nonilex I’m curious how this could impact any future court actions against those placed on the lists. Can they now claim the government deliberately lied about thee and tried to inflict punishment without a trial?

@Nonilex It’s getting really hard to tell if there is a boundary between the evil and the incompetence.

@Nonilex He also appears to be violating the Presidential Records Act by communicating via Truth Social.

@futurebird To (badly) paraphrase Hearst, “You furnish the pictures, and I’ll furnish the explanation of why it has to do with ants.”

@futurebird Are you able to put up picture rails near the ceiling so you can then hang pictures from wires and swap easily?

@futurebird When I worked at Griffith Observatory, there were six people who worked on the floor with me plus one more in maint who were distinctly taller than me. I’m 6’1”. Some nights felt weird.

@stux To be fair, South Canada should be 3 provinces: Puerto Rico, DC, and the rest.
