Reformed chemist, writer, editor, not even sure what my day job is
It's remarkable how often I have to clarify "He's not shy, he's just not very VERBAL yet." He wouldn't be smiling and waving if he was shy.

Daycare pyjama Day is some real early WFH vibes. "Let's get you out of your night pyjamas and into your day pyjamas!"

The DMV makes a nice opportunity to read with no one climbing on me

I got a new phone in August and Google keyboard STILL hasn't learned my child's name. It used to be faster at this!

It's bad enough that my toddler was up for hours in the middle of the night, was it truly necessary for the DREAM version of him to then refuse to sleep?

Did you know it's possible for the R squared value of a trendline to be 3x10^-5? Fortunately the point I was making was the two series AREN'T correlated but I think I made Excel cry...

After the last episode of Print Run I feel the need to inform @lzats.bsky.social that you can just wear hats. I do it daily. Passersby often tell me how good the hats look.

Turns out the size difference between a skinny toddler and a chonky cat is... Well my toddler just went through the cat flap on the baby gate

The thing about getting a new phone is now I have to teach it to swear and all the fandom words

When I am forced to actually call a company to do something I would appreciate not IMMEDIATELY hearing a recording helpfully informing me I can do many things online

We have a new analysis tool at work and I'm just clicking through data going "Ooh, I have BUTTONS!"

Can someone please explain why toddler hats you can't tie to said toddler exist?

Ad transitions from @iwriteok.bsky.social are even funnier when the ad is "if you hit a moose with your vehicle, you WILL die". This is a bit of a Canadian problem.

"I'm sorry your easel can't phase through matter" is one of those unexpected sentences

Picking anyone as my favourite character in Sunrise on the Reaping other than Haymitch was going to end badly but boy I managed to pick one with a particularly awful death

I think "Not hitting moose while driving" may be the strangest thing I've gotten a podcast ad for

My toddler wants the world to know that Goodnight Moon has a KITTY in it. This is very important to him.

The name Romulus Augustulus was absolutely WASTED

It's adorable that auto complete thinks I might mean Sandra Bullock and not Sandra Boynton. It's refreshing that it knows so little about my life

Is there any feeling like a library hold coming in the day you finish the book you're currently reading?

It is a bit of a design flaw that the people required to keep toddlers from killing themselves have so much less energy than toddlers

I keep finding myself saying "Clever boy..." about my toddler much like I'm discussing a velociraptor in Jurassic Park

Turns out toddler playdates mostly consist of making sure they're all using their OWN water cup
