When I say you're dumb as fuck for voting for this, that's the nicest way to phrase my opinion of you.

Where are your socks?

Still as popular a question at 15 and 10 years as it was during the toddler years...

He gives them permission to be the worst of inhumanity and proves that the worst beta male, full of grievances and incompetence wrapped up in a toddler tantrum, can become the bully president.

Saw 2 lbs of fresh cranberries on sale for $2. In this economy, I had to get them. No idea what I'm doing, but that's why recipe books exist.

To keep warm this cold snowy day... we're trying a few!

When asked if she wants to participate in something fun:

Teenager: no. I mean yes, I'm just used to saying no to everything. Yes.

Absolutely sums up parenting right there.

If you fall for a billionaire telling you to hate your neighbors, especially if you claim to be Christian, I don't know, man. That's pretty stupid.

Week 3 of furlough: I've lost count of the days and am (momentarily) tired of having a clean home.

Day 3 of furlough: I think my husband is reconsidering how much I work. Though dinner was not prepared when he got home... oops.

Day 2 of furlough: successfully catching up on things work/commute never leave me time for.

I think my favorite "tell me I'm pretty in this outfit" comparison is the reactions between friends and husband.

Husband: nice!
Friends: gorgeous! Omg! Yes! You look amazing!

Grandparents telling me stories of youth until
Her: I went to (place) all the time. Did you?
Him: I wasn't usually allowed in. Sometimes people had big issues with a group of black kids so we'd get turned away
Her: .... oh.

People- record your grandparents' lives. Record the lore and pass it down.

The problem with that "First they came for" poem is it makes a lot of unlikely assumptions. For example it assumes they would ever come for me

Describing the last 7 months but especially after yesterday
We bombed Iran without congressional approval and I still have chores and work and kids in sports and supper to make.

Living through autocracy and another possible forever war while living day to day is wild.

"Why is there a 4th grade recognition? Kindergarten, 4th, 8th... why"

Because not every child is making it. Celebrate everything fully.

(An actual question I heard and my immediate thought)
