1️⃣ 🧠 Task initiation isn’t laziness—multi-step parenting tasks can freeze a neurodivergent brain. 2️⃣ ⏰ Time blindness clashes with kids’ constant needs. 3️⃣ 🧺 Mental load overload drains working memory fast, leading to shutdown—not failure. #NeurodivergentParenting #ExecutiveFunction #ADHDParent

Why people with ADHD over-explain (it’s not what you think): 🧠 1. Context keeps us regulated 🗣️ 2. We’ve learned being misunderstood hurts 🔗 3. Our brains connect everything. #adhd #mentalhealth

Don’t ask me to explain it, but Theatre Mode Hugh Jackman gives Bill Bixby energy.

Say what you will about Ryan Reynolds, but I personally can’t wait for “Deadpool 4 Good: The Final Straw.”

How many Scott Bakulas would Scott Bakula back if Scott Bakula could back Bakulas?

The ADHD rage of needing to access something quickly on an app, it’s randomly decided to log you out, AND the password isn’t autofilling.

The vibe difference between Starbucks and Dunkin is staggering. #starbucks #dunkin #coffee

Too many people sleep on this Scott Bakula banger. #quantumleap #scottbakula #timetravel #scifi

Battling Imposter Syndrome and the Dunning-Kruger Effect When imposter syndrome lets self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy creep in, to the point where you questions if you are actually suffering from the Dunning-Kruger effect. #ImposterSyndrome #DunningKrugerEffect #SelfDoubt

Better to show up regulated and late than dysregulated and on time. Because your nervous system is the real clock.

Sometimes it's okay to step off your healing and to remind people why you're on one in the first place.

Proud papa today.

Ruin a movie title by putting Scott Bakula in it. I’ll start: “To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Scott Bakula”

…and also with you.

Moana 2 is the Dukes of Hazzard Coy and Vance episodes of Moanas.

When your kid is crying, you'll never go wrong with simply sitting with them and giving comfort.

A of of y’all missed out on the childhood experience of having two Darrins, or *shudder* Coy and Vance, and it shows.

Mighty bold of me to tell my kid we can’t listen to the same song over and over again on the ride to school like my ADHD self isn’t going to do exactly that on the drive to work after I drop her off.

Happy 92nd birthday to Willie Nelson, pictured here at age 5 in 1938.

White male allyship also looks like talking to the bros in your life with the same thought and patience as Pete Buttigieg.

Connection over compliance. #parenting

Half of good parenting is keeping your sh*t together in the middle of your kids losing theirs.

Always.

On the morning walk before school, 8yo spots a cardboard food carton on the side of the road. “It’s like they’re littering to give us more work to do on Earth Day!” Happy Earth Day, everybody.

The goal isn’t to not mess up your kids at all. Just less than what your parents did you. #Parenting #Dads #DadLife #Parents #RaisingKids #GentleParenting #MindfulParenting

Listen, I know I’m going to mess my kids up a little bit. The goal is to mess them up much less than my own parents did.

Say “I’m sorry” to your kids when you mess up. Every time. #Parenting

Normalize saying, “Welcome to the resistance”’when a former MAGA admits they were wrong.

Part II could have been so much shorter. #BackToTheFuture

I saw somebody say that a sly way to steal someone’s content is to start your post with “I saw somebody say…” and end it with “…and I can’t stop thinking about that”, and I can’t stop thinking about that.

This joke is fly. #dadjokes

Happy Good Friday to everyone, especially the Jesus followers who actually follow his teachings on love, compassion, and inclusion, and are doing what they can to help the marginalized.

Autocorrect Fun Fact: There’s only a one letter difference between ‘autopay’ and ‘autopsy.’

Saying “I’m sorry” to your kids doesn’t make you weak. It teaches them love includes accountability. #Parenting

There are two kinds of silence in parenting: the terrifying kind, and the sacred kind. Learn to tell the difference.

Happy Sunday to everyone except the folks going to church with Jesus on their lips and MAGA in their hearts.

When you give your kids grace and understanding you didn’t get from grownups when you were young, your inner child heals.
