Check on your neighbors. Check on your family. Sometimes an AC stops working. Sometimes people end up outside out of necessity. Paying just a little bit extra attention to how someone is doing could save their life. This may require you to put down your phone which, we know, but you can do this.

i am genuinely surprised there hasn’t been an american christian movement to stop worshiping the “false god” of AI.

at every other modern technological movement this premise been true.

Me after the 3rd time my toddler says she has to go to the potty in the space of 15 mins whilst we’re in a store.

Incredibly obvious art idea: make art that looks like it was AI but it was actually made by human.

Boom.

My only piece of parenting advice is ‘act how you want them to act’ because they will literally absorb and copy everything you do and say.

Sat holding my week old son, my second. (He’s perfect btw)

I didn’t realise how much having a second would show how much you’ve changed and grown as a person since your first. Additionally, the world too. And it’s only been 3 years.

I’m listening to new Bon Iver, can you tell?

Not everything needs a ‘hack’.

Sticking Velcro to you kids shoes and then sticking Velcro to the tray table on a plane so the shoes never go missing is not necessary; bags already exist.

(And I say this as someone who has taken multiple international and domestic flights with a baby.)

Toddlers are continuity experts.

Could my 3 year be any more of a 3 year old?

This is the combo: Stickers on shirt, stamps and fake tattoos on arm (from a recent birthday party), finger nails painted, princess dress up clothes on all whilst scootering (wearing a helmet for safety ofc), looking for treasure (leaves).

Who knew that clear plastic solo cups would keep a 3 year old occupied for multiple hours over multiple days.

Tonight we thanked God for ‘unicorns, dinosaurs and treasure hunts’

Tonight I was putting my toddler to bed and absolutely whacked my knee. My toddler asked me what was wrong and I said ‘Daddy hurt his knee!’ And she proceeded to tell me ‘But I didn’t’ 😶

She did follow up kindly with ‘Just breathe’ which was a nice cherry on top amongst the pain.

Anyone think it insane they used to concrete hockey posts into the ground/ice?

So anyone have advice for getting your toddler to sleep past 5:15am 😴

We’ve shifted bedtime earlier, shifted later, doesn’t seem to make a difference…

Today my toddler invented ‘stable ice cream’. Yes, ice cream that doesn’t melt. 🍦

I bought 3 things online last week from 3 different online stores. All of them ended up in the Shop app.

Only just realised that Shop is owned by Shopify 🤦🏻‍♂️

I know I’m not allowed to have cold weather in Florida….but we hit 32°F (0°C) this morning. 🥶

The more I’m a Dad, the more I realise parenting is all about branding and marketing.

It’s not ‘Let’s brush your hair’, it’s ’Let’s play hair salon!’

It’s not ‘Time to brush your teeth’, it’s ’Let’s play teeth salon!’

Basically just add ‘salon’ on the end of it.
