For some reason the post showed the link but not the rich snippet (at least on my client). Can’t let that happen, not for a show as epic as “Crash Landing on You”

Here’s another try:

We played "The Planets" by Gustav Holst for the kids the other day (more on that in a second).

Just give the movement "Mars, the Bringer of War" a listen and it may remind you of a certain movie that begins with two spaceships at war advancing towards a reddish planet below.

The movement "Jupiter, the Bringer of Jollity" is our favorite. Where did we find a love for the music?

It was on the kids show Bluey.

(I love watching it too)

Thanks! Congrats to you as well. Enjoy the every minute of it. It seems the only thing faster than the speed of light is how fast your kids grow up.

The mental gymnastics I go through to divide 150 in half.

Split 150 into two parts, 100 and 50

First Part

100 / 2 = 50

Second Part

50 / 2 = 25

50 + 25 = 75

The human calculator. Just not an effective one, but I am at least 100% correct 80% of the time. Every time.

That’s amazing! Probably nothing. Where’s the stat from?

Tonight, I was telling our young twins a story that involved wizards, dragons, and a red, red wagon.

One of the twins asked, "What's a wagon?"

I thought, "I'm a failure as a father."

I described a red wagon to them.

Then it hit me. We used to have a red wagon and I would pull them around the block in that big heavy thing (it did not have a very good turning radius). We even took them trick or treating in it one year—maybe a couple years even.

I wasn't a failure as a father, we're just a family that's memory challenged from not sleeping. Ever. #twins

“Where are my Tic-Tacs? Ugh!”

Best line from the movie “You’ve Got Mail”

Don’t know why that’s in my head right now. Maybe my subconscious is telling me to be more thoughtful and a better listen—

—Hey wait, where are *my* Tic-Tacs?

“Hope” is the thing with feathers -

That perches in the soul -

And sings the tune without the words -

And never stops - at all -

And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -

And sore must be the storm -

That could abash the little Bird

That kept so many warm -

I’ve heard it in the chillest land -

And on the strangest Sea -

Yet - never - in Extremity,

It asked a crumb - of me.

—Emily Dickinson

c. 1861

Thanks, #[0] for the little blue bird that gave hope and voice to millions around the world. As the world changes, it’s nice to see that hope continued with #nostr Thank you, #[2] for Nostr and shoutout to #[3] for “Nostrich” so fitting! #[4]

Hope is the thing with feathers after all.

Peace. 🖖

First post! How about some favorite poetry:

Tell all the truth but tell it slant —

Success in Circuit lies

Too bright for our infirm Delight

The Truth's superb surprise

As Lightning to the Children eased

With explanation kind

The Truth must dazzle gradually

Or every man be blind —

—Emily Dickinson
