My husband ran a range at a Cub Scout camp for years, he would not put up with that from children

I’ve rewatched part of Andor in the last 24hr (not Ghorman, too hard). It felt like the right thing to be watching

same. My kiddo who loves ancient history (but is taking an online US history class this year), asked to learn about our rights this week in school so I am working on pivoting lessons for this week. My kids are old enough we had hard conversations today... and yet it feels like not enough

Hey I just saw this again and I just wanted to say that I didn’t mean for it to come off as me using a plunger as a mom made it any harder, it was more of a shorthand to say it was a child mess for the need to use it, but I realize I said it weird

as an aside, I know this wont work for everyone, but our kids get 3 tech "tickets" they can use a day, one morning, one afternoon and one evening, each worth 30min. It was one of our best parenting choices, it gives them choice on the time but guidelines around it

We finished playing a board game today and I told my 13yr old I needed 10-15min before I could play a card game with her... she told me it was best for me if I didn't spend that time on social media...

A former humanities teacher of mine this week posted that Trump made a lot of sense in his speeches this week because what makes the USA and EU special is our culture and it’s our job to protect it from outside interference.
Feels similar

for people not in the Midwest, a lot of WI is closed today because it is too cold, like our public works, coffee shops, curbside ordering, banks, doctors offices... it is bitterly cold by midwest standards

Ugh, like why in this world do we need to deal with plungers?!?!
