He took an 8 month break from camping so that he "wanted to be fully present and adjust to life with a newborn." But his wife moved in with her parents for the first two months, and they don't have family in the area. She left town with your kid. So how exactly were you adjusting to fatherhood?

just wouldn't get up and go. She got snappish with me when I asked her, for the fourth or fifth time, to please go get ready for bed. We had a fight when she wanted to do the dishes instead of her eye mask (medical treatment, not beauty treatment) and bedtime pills.

IS THERE A PETITION TO SIGN TO GET MORE OF THE NEW MUPPET SHOW??
I have signed at least 5 resistbots in the last few days, SO FOR THE LOVE OF GOD UNIVERSE, GIVE ME A FUN ONE TO SIGN
I know that the Muppets are probably more popular with Gen X than little kids at this point, but it was weird that ABC chose to air it at 9 pm.
I hope the special does well enough to convince them to do a full season.
Piggy was excellent! I watched with my mother last night, and we agreed that Kermit was a little off, though. I was familiar with Sabrina Carpenter (I haven't listened to a radio in years, but even I've heard Espresso), but the number the rats did meant nothing to me.

The common sense response to ICE is to shut them down and start scheduling the trials. Thatβs the only position Iβm interested in hearing about.

The implosion of twitter is probably the thing thatβs had the biggest direct impact on me in the last couple of years. I had a strong community over there, and while Iβve found some folks again, I still feel really disconnected. Itβs not the horror some are experiencing, but itβs not nothing.

1. "I, a person of great taste and importance who has heard of everything good, have never heard of this thing, hence it must be a bag of wank."

We do it to ourselves before anyone else can do it for us. Because we know they will.
