Fed my kid his first Adderall and then dropped him off at camp. Let’s all pray for…all of that.

Watching all of the social media content of Europeans discovering America is sparking joy in the thimblefull of national pride left inside me.

My favorite part of every Taskmaster finale is being confronted with how tall Greg really is.

people in the comments are really mad about this idea but unless you specifically tell me not to tell my spouse i am 100% telling my spouse. neither of us are going anywhere else with it, but both of us know. i don’t know what else to tell you

Is there any way to convince a 7yo that asking the same question repeatedly to the point of insanity is not going to change the answer???

The failure to find religious meaning in On the Road.

You are not responsible for the reactions and emotions of others. You are only responsible for your own actions.

Sitting with my son at the Super Mario movie and also looking at the news and. I don’t know. I don’t know!

Part one of the Eagles doc from 2013.

This pizza place is playing The Postal Service’s Give Up, unbroken, at 2 pm, and I’m handling it fine.

“I’m just a notch in your bedpost, but you’re just a line in a song” is still an all-time lyric.

Does anyone have a workable system for matching straws to reusable water bottles (and then keeping them paired)? I have so many straws and so many bottles and yet none of them seem to go together, and I’m over it.

Have you heard about this Heated Rivalry thing? We like it a normal amount, and so do our guests, fangirl in STEM @kickedthestairs.bsky.social and author/Canadian @kagcomix.bsky.social . 🇨🇦🇷🇺 www.frowl.org/worstbestsel...

I need AO3 to stop edging me.

But why is the AO3 down??? How did I not know we had maintenance coming?

I wish Frank’s RedHot had a version that was like…25% hotter.

No cheating, your last saved picture of a celebrity is your therapist. This will surely go well for me.

A bunch of people on the plane clapped when the US scored against CAN. It was a nice little moment after an ass-early flight.

Cody was basically asleep with his mouth hanging open the whole flight, including descent, and then we touched down HARD and he just goes “found it” without opening his eyes. 😂😂

😭😭😭

One way to regulate your ADHD child’s screen time, as an ADHD parent, is to just get locked in a never ending cycle of them forgetting to charge the device, letting them yell at you for not charging it for them, telling them you’ll charge it, and then absolutely forgetting to charge it.

Cody in 20 years.

I've listened to A Better Son/Daughter twice already since I woke up. Should put on No Children and then Landslide and just make a day of it.

Can we keep Yana Kovalenko plz??? #ThePitt

Why is every woman on The Pitt so hot??

???????? No.

Cody finally finished Heated Rivalry last night. Today is his birthday. Here is how I know he loves me: we are watching episode 2, and he’s letting me PopUp Video the whole ep with book, filming, and cast infodumping.

Best biscuits and gravy in Chicago.

Gonna make Max watch Mighty Ducks tonight for movie night.

Therapy tomorrow should be a lot of fun considering that the last session I had was before gay hockey ate my life.

All the people who were over at my parents’ are leaving, and I’m about to ring in the new year the way god intended: cross-faded and reading gay hockey fic.

“Yeah, because Santa knows everything…just like my mom!” Thanks for the best present, kid. 🤣😘

My child is running around in pants that are 3 inches too short for him and a Halloween Buc-ee’s shirt (backwards because he likes the big design to be on the front).

THAT’S HOW YOU MAKE TELEVISION, BABYYYYYYY

I don’t remember life before the dumb hockey gays.

My kid’s school is doing a fundraising raffle aimed at parents, and the prize is getting to skip morning and afternoon car line for all of January. This is a v smart idea.

Time for some gay hockeyyyy.

Just stumbled across a barber on IG who provides free, accommodating haircuts to neurodivergent & nonverbal kids/teens, and I’m just sitting in my car sobbing about it.

Wednesday evening with M (6): “Do you know who R T Doo T is?” “Mama. Um. I don’t really want to tell you this, but. What does the middle finger mean?”

Addressing holiday cards always involves a call to my mom to inevitably catch up on any family gossip that might have resulted in a move. Learned about a restraining order!

Wake Up Dead Man was very good!

If you normally get a holiday card from me and you’ve moved in the last year (or if you’ve gotten one intermittently and would like to be sure you get one this year), make sure I have your address!

I just want to do whatever I want without anybody getting mad and everybody saying I am great and the love me. Is that too much to ask?

Everyone left and now it’s just me and M today and tomorrow. I’m sure I’ll feel the drop later today, but for right now, we’re both enjoying some decompression time.

Water is so good. I love water.

The Tuesday before Thanksgiving: my child is wear a shirt covered in ghosts, singing “Kidnap the Sandy Claws” to himself, and watching the original Grinch cartoon. All the Holidays, All the Time

Rolled out of bed and dislocated my elbow at age 3. Decided in the ER that I wanted to be a “bone doctor.” Then got obsessed with forensics in high school and wanted to be a pathologist. Was pre-med until I took genetics my junior year of college and fell in love.

I never even liked dystopian literature, so living in one is just wildly subpar.

Wheeee always fun to chat on WBS! Make sure to listen so you can hear @renatasnacks.bsky.social absolutely roast my suburban dad self.
