Overheard conversation between our daughters watching the Bejewled music video:
9-YO: “She gets the prince in the end but ditches him because she has the castle. Smart.”
7-YO: “Well yeah. Who needs a prince when you have the whole castle.”

What are they saying over on Fox?
Elections were rigged? Yelling about something Biden did in 2021? All of these are D states anyway so who really cares? All of the above? I’m curious but not curious enough to actually turn it on.

Populist Dems won. Moderate Dems won. We won in blue states. We won in purple states.
Maybe the take is that (a) people think Trump is out of control; and (b) people like Dems when we're taking a stand and fighting for what we believe in - as we have been for the last month.

Our DC community showed up this weekend at our daughters’ food drive and bake sale. $450 raised (which @stevevladeck.bsky.social and I will match) and TONS of food heading to the Capital Area Food Bank.

Great night trick or treating in the neighborhood, which goes all out! Now home, watching Hocus Pocus 2, and letting kids eating as much candy as they want. Perfect Halloween. 🎃

Me: “Girls, do you know why the protest is called ‘No Kings’?”
Sydney (7): “Yeah because none of these people want a boy to be President and we should have a girl instead.”
Close enough!

The level of pettiness of the administration is honestly comical.
They’ve changed the avatar on LinkedIn for the White House to a picture of Trump so now every person who ever worked at the WH in any administration has Trump’s picture in their employment history. It’s so dumb.

The gaslighting is wild. THEY control the White House, the House, and the Senate—yet always find a way to blame Democrats for their mess.

Imagine having gone to undergrad, medical school, residency, and fellowships only to have to listen to a parent that wants to change a vaccine schedule based on an unhinged rant on Truth social. Never thought I would say that being a pediatrician is not for the faint of heart but here we are.
