I still sometimes collect links to share:

Canto I of Dante’s Inferno translated in terza rima and no letter e. (via)

An especially nice positive review of Ice Melts in the Wind. (via asakiyume)

Larry the Stormtrooper tries to run a Zoom meeting with Palpatine, Vader, and Boba Fett. (via Eaglet)

(Yes, my kid is old enough to feed me linkage.)

Subject quote from Synchronicity II, The Police. (I’d forgotten how stupid the video is.) (Line is pointing at the last link.)

Wow, Eaglet!

Current screen time is spent roughly 40% YouTube, 40% Minecraft, and 20% Roblox. That's a lot of media consumption, especially during vacations, some of it actually good.

Oh, that's such a fun milestone to pass. Both godkids post things in the funny links channel on the family Discord, and it's a joy.

We should consider setting up a family Discord. Much of the extended family would probably be quite puzzled by adding yet another new technology, but it could be useful to the immediate core.

It's honestly been great. We set it up when one family member was going to be living abroad for 2.5 months and did not want to have to pay for memes and pictures in the family group texts, and we have channels for book discussion, funny links, meal planning, and more.
