My 4 yr old is mostly past the cute toddler-speak but he still says “you nork” instead of “New York” and I can’t bring myself to correct him 🥹

My 2yo daughter won’t let me touch her hair but comes home from school with all kinds of cute ‘dos and excitedly tells me which teacher did her hair that day
Once again tried to brush my 2yo daughter hair for school while she screamed “NO DONT BRUSH IT I LIKE IT MESSY!!!!!!!”

As a former GLO employee, it’s breaking some of my priors as well. Cool to see, though!

I think I’m the only person in the world who watched Acapulco (which somehow got 4 seasons!) but it’s a low stress show with a fun vibe
I have Apple TV for the next month. What should I watch. Severance is up first.

It was already one of those mornings that felt like we fit a whole day into 2 hours. Then potty training 2 yr old had an accident on the floor and 4 yr old stepped in it, slipped, & landed on his butt in the puddle 😩😂 At least a bath was another 20 min activity

Taylor Townsend has more experience than any athlete alive fighting for respect and carving out space for herself in a sport that's told her repeatedly that she doesn't belong. Today is just the latest example of why tennis is lucky to have her.
After a heated second round match at the US Open, American Taylor Townsend calls out her opponent, Latvian Jelena Ostapenko:

"She told me I have no class, I have no education, and to see what happens when we get outside the U.S."

Highest demand day of the year in Texas, first time over 83,000 megawatts. Solar again providing a consistent, reliable 30% of demand; wind and solar combined are at ~50%. Plenty of extra power available, prices are low. No conservation alerts necessary. #txlege #txenergy

The Trump administration is threatening to kill the $7B Solar for All program, just as grantees across the U.S. are ramping up work to cut utility bills for nearly 1M low-income households and add 4GW of much-needed grid capacity. Here's what's at risk:

Lucy turned 2 today and her first year (when Sebastian was 2) was so so hard, but I’m already sad they’re not real babies anymore 🥺 now that they’re 2 and almost 4, everyday is a blast and I’m really trying to savor this period
Here, Bob Odenkirk (in a pod with Mike Birbiglia) says something I have been thinking about *so much* the last few years but I never, ever hear expressed in public. Lord, hearing it said aloud just made me burst into tears. (Yes I'm fine why do you ask.)

Texas teachers having to post donation lists of things they need for the school year is a scathing indictment of Texas governmental leaders at every level and shouldn't be treated as normal

Just canceled my (useless) LinkedIn premium subscription and redirected the funds for monthly donations to Marfa Public Radio and @kutx.bsky.social 😎

Debate and amendments continue today on the Republicans' One Big Horrible Bill. There's still time to make it less bad, especially on energy provisions.

If you want energy abundance, cheaper electricity, less pollution, NOW is the time to CALL Senate offices and tell them to...

The energy provisions in the Republicans' One Big Horrible Bill are truly so bad! Who wants this? The country's automakers don't want it. Electric utilities don't want it. Data center developers don't want it. Manufacturers in energy intensive industries don't want it. 🔌💡
