"DeSantis’s maverick approach to primary, secondary and higher education"

πŸ€” πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ 🀦

Also, this:

@stroughtonsmith I am not making an app.

πŸ—ΊοΈ Instead, I am making shaded relief maps where I use 3D data to get a 3D-like visual perspective, and then I overlay them with satellite imagery.

πŸ›οΈ Printed maps are available for purchase at my little boutique shop at etsy.com/shop/HicSuntDraconesM.

Oh, and I am open to custom mapping requests.

Thanks, Steve, for this #showcase #cartography

My GF last night: Did you hear about LeBron James?

Me: I don't care.

GF: You didn't hea..

Me: I really don't care.

GF: You didn't read about it anywhere???

GF: No?

Me: Did he break up a child rape club?

GF: No.

ME: Did he cure cancer?

GF: No!

Me: Was it some sports thingy?

GF: Yes!

Me: Then I definitely don't care.

I CHANGED MY MIND!!!

Once we got out of the plane, it was fine.

Who knows what could happen if people started responding? Madness and chaos, that's where it would end, just madness and chaos.

apparently you can get more interaction on social media by asking questions so i’ll not be doing that.

Our beloved wonderful protective snow dog Aubrey sometimes used to just sit and stare at walls. He passed a few years ago, but we're convinced he was reincarnated as our stray-rescue cat Tuxie, who behaves like Aubrey did in countless weird ways including this: #dogsofmastodon #catsofmastodon #dogsreincarnatedascatsofmastodon

My wife had some underwear stolen and the culprit was so tired that they left their chocolate bar behind.

So at least we have the knackered knicker nicker’s Snickers snack.
