When kids appreciate small things like this, you know you did a good job as a mom! And yes you are cool!

The Trump regime has numbed this nation into obliviousness. This war will register no more than a video game.

That was my first thought

AI art is an oxymoron.

We’re being governed by middle school bullies.

I had this same thought just today. I’m retiring at the end of this school year, and think that is the time to cut the cord.

The term β€œnational treasure”is thrown around way too much in this country, except in the case of Jon Batiste. He is the real deal

As a middle school teacher, I absolutely cannot fathom a teacher-and we hear mostly of female teachers and boys-with this age group-being sexually attracted to a preteen. And I guess that is because I do understand how abhorrent pedophilia is

This is a really dumb question.

Ages ago, when PMDD first became a diagnosis, I was watching TV with my kids when an ad came on for the meds to treat it (Prozac). As one my children looked at me and said β€œMom…???”. They also pointed out that they could tell when it was bad because I made them clean πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the TaΓ­nos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

I watched two or three episodes but it just didn’t grab me. I’m really enjoying Riot Women on Britbox though!

This is #gotcha weekend for this little nugget. Two years ago today I scooped Pepper up, rescuing her from roaming my building’s parking garage. Can’t imagine being without her! Happy #Caturday
