Day 1: You Are a Teen Mom: Instructions by Randa Jarrar
For some inexplicable reason my toddler decided he was waking up at 6am today, but he did lay in my bed for about an hour after he woke up to rub my back and say “sleeeeeeeeeep! Mama sleeeeeeeep”

Goodreads is owned by Jeff Bezos. A better alternative is StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform. And before y’all start, you can transfer all your Goodreads data to Storygraph so you literally have no excuse.

TIL that one reason raw milk is having a comeback is a lot of people don't know what pasteurization is. They think it's adding "chemicals" not a rapid heat treatment

COVID took her husband, Mr. Lonnie, and she has cancer now. But they still meeting for Thanksgiving this year. Off an accidental text and viral tweet

That app is a hellhole now. But it changed so many lives. It changed my life. Stories like this didnt just become lore but highlighted the best of us
Let’s hope that these two find their way to these Skeets

Also hope the grandma is feeling better

The number one advice any & every writing professional can & will give you is this:

DO NOT BE AFRAID TO SUCK.

You have spent years reading books, watching movies & TV, developing taste to know good from bad. NO ONE GETS TO READ YOUR WRITING UNTIL YOU LET THEM. Trust your taste & write fearlessly.

Life is short. Write that novel. Paint that painting. Try new recipes. Learn black magic. Go into the forest at night. Summon a demon. Earn that demon's trust. Become best friends with it. Brag to everyone else about your new cool demon best friend. Knit that sweater.

I am proud to announce that it only took my son a few days after turning 2 to find farts to be the funniest thing in the world. My house is constantly full of fart noises followed by maniacal laughter.

This is Meatball. He's going home for the very first time. So excited to have a human of his own. Thinking about what he's going to call you. Maybe Bob. 12/10

Lance is an uncommon name nowadays…

But in medieval times people were called Lance a lot

Yeah yeah yeah, horror is great, it helps us face our fears, get through dark times, and all that jazz.

But also, monsters and ghosts and such are just rad, and I like them.

I miss watching teen dramas before I had a child and my frontal lobe fully developed. Now I’m getting grey hairs watching Pretty Little Liars and constantly screaming “WHERE ARE THEIR PARENTS?!?!”
