"Women need to lower their standards."
No, men need to be better.

Please vote today if you can in the special election for Lancaster county! Josh Parsons sucks.

My kiddo was playing with the neighbor and neighbor kid said "don't touch the mulch!" And I said "oh, is the floor lava?" And she said, "no, it's an infinite void!"

Bluesky has the like button on the right and Substack has it on the left. I wonder if there are more left-handed (right-brained) users on that platform. These are the things my web design brain thinks about.

I don't have sensory issues. I just really needed something crunchy for lunch and the lettuce in my wrap wasn't crunchy enough so I alternated bites with chips to add crunchiness and I think if I didn't eat something crunchy my whole day would've been ruined.

IDC what those other monsters say. Mike Wasowski is terrifying. If I woke up with that little green guy on my chest in the middle of the night, I'd have a full blown panic attack. He deserved to be a scarer.

I just had a polite social interaction at work while battling an ear infection and I think I deserve the Nobel Peace Prize.

You mean my husband and I need to make sure we have food on the table for three people every day? Like... forever?

We got our toddler a pair of those fuzzy boots. The second I put them on her this morning, she looked at me and said "coffee?" I fear we've created a monster.

Pro tip to anyone else who gets a period: don't get the flu in the same week. I don't think there's enough water on earth to accommodate this.

My toddler just told me "hug slower." And you know what? I think I'm going to take that advice with me a lot of places, now.

In our house, there's no argument about who leaves the toilet seat up. We all put the lid down before we flush. It's the most sanitary.

The M&M McFlurry is better than the Oreo. Change my mind.
