On top of everything else, The Baby doesn't feel well. She just wants to sleep and sleep, and I'm going to let her

The stress/grief insomnia is so fucking bad. My brain is like "hey remember that your mom is dying very soon? Let me walk you through all the details" and I'm like I do in fact remember. Please let me sleep so I can face it tomorrow.

🚨 UPDATE: In Ghislaine Maxwell’s DOJ interview, she refers to Epstein spending time with Clinton and Trump in the ‘90s. The DOJ then asks about “other individuals in Mr. Epstein’s life during that time period.” The first name Maxwell says: “Congressman McMillen.”

Everyone who talked up how efficient and easy-peasy this airport is was so right. It was so quiet and calm both on Tuesday when we left and Friday when we got back. Good job, Kansas City!

We just used this coupon and it was VERY GOOD to save 9 bucks with zero effort!

If Taco Bell gives you explosive diarrhea that’s a personal problem and doesn’t need to be interjected Into every single conversation regarding a menu item at Taco Bell. Let people enjoy things without being gross. Why do we still game to say these things?

Welcome to bluesky, we keep to the old ways here

The Netflix and Amazon broadcasts are a great reminder that live sports is a deeply, deeply difficult type of TV that requires huge crews of profoundly skilled and experienced people who have worked together for a long time to look natural

And Tiny Tim - From the lowest dungeon to the highest peak fought with the Balrog of Morgoth... Darkness took him, and strayed out of thought and time... But it was not the end. felt life in him again. He's been sent back until his task is done - who did NOT die.

I want to tell The Baby that she'll be on an airplane tomorrow but I know well enough not to tell a toddler SHIT until you're actually at the cool place doing the exciting thing. In the meantime we watched a video of takeoffs and landings yesterday

"It is humiliating that so many of us had to learn who Bari Weiss is. It feels the same as when awareness of Tom Sandoval broke containment from the Vanderpump Rules bubble and briefly became a national affliction." - @joshgondelman.bsky.social, once again making it all make sense.

A very cool thing about my parents having 80+ foster kids in the past is that I have extra siblings to lean on when there's leanin' to be done. Not all 80 of them, just a few. But a few is so good! We're so lucky!

Once when we wanted to show the ineffectual dithering of The Good Place Committee, we had one of them say, "There are rules, procedures. This is The Good Place -- we can't just *do stuff.*" We almost didn't include it, because we thought it was a little on the nose.
