One piece of literature influenced The Lord of the Rings more than any other Tolkien studied it for 25 years, convinced it had a hidden meaning What he discovered changed the face of literature and helped him create his life’s masterpiece… 🧵

Trump was president for 4 years. Can anyone name anything that he did that was a threat to democracy? I’ll wait.

Holy sh*t. Linda Ronstadt has absolutely HAD it with Donald Trump & JD Vance & she is not holding back one bit. This statement is so good. Everyone must read & share this.

This is a thread about how Thomson Industries completely (mis)handled this situation as a customer service response. I'm hoping maybe it'll get seen by @annedrewa or someone like that. Please help by retweeting. teapawt.net/theLUCASTDS/status/182…

I hated this summer, mostly because I got screwed by a contractor called @ThomsonInd This is kind of embarrassing to write. However, if you've ever been mistreated by a contractor, or know someone who has, or just want to help me, then retweet this thread & maybe it'll help🧵

❤️ for all my fellow teachers
For a Teacher Yes, you will be tired. You will be tested by their wild hearts. But those hearts are little fires in the darkness. Remember what the gift is. Remember to help a voice begin is a sacred act. Remember no one knows when they've been saved. Listen. Let the world say all is ruined. You know where the changes start, in darkness. Start again with the small things, the smallest things. Breathe. Be open. Keep going. Show them you are listening, in wonder. Gentleness is the next revolution. Help them all to say each other's names. —Joseph Fasano

From Scientific American: “…in order to keep atomic time in agreement with astronomical time, leap seconds occasionally must be added to UTC. Thus, not all minutes contain 60 seconds. A few rare minutes, occurring at a rate of about eight per decade, actually contain 61.” 🤯

We all know about music made for video games, but what about music made *in* video games? Here's a thread of some of the wackiest and most impressive music made by gamers using in-game engines, sound effects, and materials.

Update (version 2) of the Musical Pitch is Not "High" or "Low" resource is online. I've included a number of pitch metaphors from China as well as some research on Horizontal-Pitch and Thickness-Pitch & Sharpness-Pitch mappings (in infants and children). doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.…

"If you want cycling for the masses, then you have to make sure it's not just possible, but it's delightful... that it's attractive to people. That there's a cycle path on virtually every street, connecting all the origins and destinations in your city." cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-5…
