@clhubes.bsky.social hey do I remember that you have a spreadsheet of things to do? May I please have a link to it? Kiddo is requesting a super amazing splash pad and I’m hoping there’s one closer than Fairfax county. Also googling but sometimes it’s hard to tell. Thank you!

@clhubes.bsky.social @akademanda.bsky.social I learned about the Expensive Mice from your exchange - thank you! My mom didn’t like my gift suggestions for my kiddo for Valentine’s Day and then I suggested an Expensive Mouse and she thought that was great. Win! Now we will see if my kid likes it.

Wish I had the strength/willpower to get up extra early to work out. Any secrets? Already exhausted from asthma flares so the thought of getting up at 5am is just 😬🥱.

If you like dark chocolate, you'll like this finding that it reduces the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes (not seen with milk chocolate)

Can we complain to CVS on this app yet? Making me completely run out of prednisone during an asthma flare before they will let me refill at the end of the week. What if I need a higher dose in the meantime? Do i have to risk running out sooner? #chronicillness

I admit I am a parenting pushover. I asked my kid what she wants for Hanukkah, she told me solid color shirts (ok, a bit random for a kid), ordered, she saw them come, I took them upstairs … and this morning she said she wants to wear one so I gave her one. So … any ideas for gifts for a 5 yr old??

Arguably, the greatest advance in healthcare in the past 100 years was the widespread vaccination of children.

I made a Bluesky “law professor starter pack” (plus some historians and law journalists)
It’s a bit random - it’s limited to 150, so I picked the first 150 that popped up on my list.
It’s a start!
