My mother is sadly getting on in years. My brother and I are all she has left. I've made a fake adoption certificate for my brother, made it look old and everything, and hidden it in her attic. And now we wait.

My sister does a cute thing where she gets a t-shirt with the year her kids are due to leave school and takes a photo of them in it each year as they grow into it. I noticed today that she's worked the year out wrong for middle child. Haven't told her, don't know how to

A message to the future from Bertrand Russell, a philosopher born in 1872, filmed in 1970 – at Hubbard, OH
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This interview actually took place in April 1959, though Russell did die in 1970. openculture.com/2012/08/face_t…

Whenever I am with students I want to say, and often do say: The statistics tell us you are experiencing extraordinary levels of anxiety, depression, and loneliness. That is not because you are unhealthy people in a normal world. You are normal people in an unhealthy world.

I ordered a massive $30 stack of pancakes at the airport then realised my plane was boarding so I had to leave without eating my pancakes now there is an uneaten plate of pancakes at Perth airport if you want them and I am hungry. – at Perth, Western Australia

Bo Burnham's new special is the most inspiring thing you could possibly watch if you're someone who films yourself. I've never seen anything done better.
