Alice helped do the makeup for Emily's middle school play the last two nights and the director gave her a cast t shirt in appreciation. She just asked me if she can wear it tomorrow and then wash it and wear it again for school.

@katrinaravioli.bsky.social that video you shared on FB about hand dryers is so validating. I HATE them for sensory reasons... Paper towel or nothing.

I am begging pasta manufacturers to simply print a large number on the back of the package that is the amount of minutes I need to boil it for. Not this. Don't make me find my Walgreens reading glasses to read this 😩

I didn't get a good pic of Alice's 80s Day hair, which is a shame. It took a full 30 min of braiding last night but the crimp is 💯. Midway through she said "I just want to go to sleep, when will this be DONE." A true 80s/90s experience! You think I had a crimper? We SUFFERED to look this awesome!

I can't wait to hear what Spencer "Disagree Better" Cox has to say about the president calling for his political rivals to be executed. How's that "both sides need to tone down the rhetoric" going?

Teaching about Edvard Munch today, I said that tuberculosis no longer kills as many people thanks to vaccines, antibiotics, and better hygiene understanding of how germs spread. A kid asked me "why are people trying to take away vaccines?" 😭
CDC has overhauled its website to assert that “the claim ‘vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim”

I made homemade mac and cheese tonight to try and be slightly healthier and none of my kids would eat it. The best was my 14yo "wasn't hungry" because she stuffed herself full of cheeze its (and didn't clean them up). I officially quit! Eat junk food and cereal, for dinner every night. I'm done.

It's cool how profs and teachers were fired for tweeting Charlie Kirk's own words, but asking a sex trafficker for advice about how to engage in predatory sexual behavior with your students, that's fine!

I got an alert that a search H did on a school computer triggered a content review. The search is appropriate and related to classwork. It does include the terms feminism, diversity, and prejudice. I would love to know which of these terms triggers a restricted content warning. (I have asked)
