I worry about this, legitimately.
Personally I like getting replies to my posts so I reply to timeline posts a lot. I'm just being a friendly nerd
If I'm replying to you too much please just tell me to knock it off 😓

Husband did a video appointment yesterday for Leaf and they basically said it's an upper respiratory virus that's going around & she could be coughing for 4 weeks 🙃
Then this morning she woke up with a rash on her bum and thighs. Poor kiddo is Going Through It 😞

Tried out a new online group therapy session tonight. Overall I think it will be beneficial.
My biggest struggle was not monopolizing the conversation 😅. I'm such a fixer by nature and I've done so much (so very much) therapy and work on myself. But I'm not there to give advice

Wavy Hair journey:
It's really annoying 😂😅
Bought a bunch of products to try (sample sizes as often as possible)
Wash day hair yesterday was a bust. Barely any wave after it dried
Day 2 refresh today with a mousse. More waves but more frizz

This is a great piece by my colleague spencer on the bad bunny helftimeshow but of course there’s never been a more divisive idea in American history than all of us being American, we fought a civil war over it and Trump is nothing if not manifest opposition to it www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

Bad Bunny’s critics said his Super Bowl halftime show would be divisive. They were totally wrong.
