A podcast about language realized its own conversation wasn’t accessible to everyone.

Avant now includes ASL interpretation in every new video episode of The Multiliterate Mind—building access into the show instead of adding it afterward.

Today is International Translation Day.

Translation and interpretation do more than move words between languages. They help people participate, belong and be understood.

This year’s FIT theme: “The power of being understood.”

MIT scientists found ancient magnetic records preserved in microscopic grains from some of the oldest meteorite material ever studied—evidence that magnetism likely helped shape the infant solar system alongside gravity. 🪐

A library can hold books. It can also hold a community.

In Nairobi, Book Bunk is restoring historic public libraries and filling them with something just as important: places to learn, create, work and connect.

Hope doesn’t have to be something we wait around to feel. Sometimes it’s something we practice—deliberately, repeatedly, especially when it would be easier not to.

A pretty good way to start a new week!

Across the country today, volunteers are restoring trails, removing invasive plants, collecting native seeds and caring for the places everyone gets to share.

That’s a pretty good way to spend a Saturday.

Not as a call to grind forever, but as a reminder that there will always be another chance to help, build, learn or leave something a little better than we found it.

Three stages, one ridiculously photogenic mushroom!

Fly agaric goes from little red button to full storybook umbrella — and somehow every stage looks like it belongs in an enchanted forest.

Yarn bombing took knitting out of the living room and wrapped it around the public world — turning railings, trees, signs, and sidewalks into unexpected bursts of color.

A little softness can change a whole streetscape.

Some people make noise. Dolly Parton makes good ruckus!

She’s used her music, platform, and sparkle to lift people up through literacy, generosity, and kindness — especially through the Imagination Library.

Happy Dolly Day. (9/25)

There’s always one kid who decides the family outing is over…

Mom: “We’re walking.”

That one cub: “Respectfully, no.”
