I just told the sleep study people that I have “an unusual attachment to my pillow,” so I’ll be under a rock for the foreseeable future.

I swear to god if I hear “Hey Mom” one more fucking time tonight. I will absolutely love it and smile and respond with “yes Buddy?” while all calm and collected. #overstimulated

I’m going to say this again, the parent with ADD needs help remembering things. They should not be the ONLY one in charge of medications & teeth brushing!
Damn I forget those 90% of the time for myself!

But aren’t they able to transmit tuberculosis to humans?

“Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
The battle outside ragin'
Will soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'”

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

I need some clarification 🤔🤔🤔 #WTFAmerica #HandsOff

Being super in tune to people’s emotions is not always my strength. Today it was my downfall. By the time I got home from extended family Easter I had nothing left for my kids or myself. I feel so empty. Sending myself to bed early and hopefully wake up recharged for the other side of the fam.

I refuse to be a part of Gilead.

Governor Reynolds not seeking reelection DES MOINES, Iowa — Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds has announced she will not run for reelection in 2026. The announcement came Friday morning in a video posted to Gov. Reynold’s campaign so…

Reynolds isn't seeking re-election. But her destructive legacy of making Iowa a smaller, crueler, and petty state that cares only for Culture War nonsense will long endure.

2026 will be here before you know it but make no mistake -we have a state to fix.

But I mean I’m glad she will be gone.

Dim Reynolds isn’t seeking reelection! 🥳 now all we need is to hear the same from Assley and the rest of the state Reps & Senators.

Nationally, 4 in 10 pregnancies are covered by Medicaid. In Iowa, nearly half of all nursing home residents rely on Medicaid. This will decimate rural hospitals.

This is wrong!

I don’t care who you are, fill your paperwork out EVERYTIME you get it. God damn the amount of people who mail back empty forms. If you don’t know your medical history that’s one thing, but your address, phone number, that kind of stuff. JUST FILL THE SHEET OUT.

I just read something that said “Maybe I don’t have anxiety & depression, maybe that’s just America” and I feel very validated.

An adult returned medical paperwork filled out in glitter ink. GLITTER INK. I might rage.

“Welcome to Iowa Freedom to Flourish” my ass . Maybe if you’re a cis het white man 🙄 thanks for ruining our state gop & KKKimmy

Sure hope we end up with a snow day tomorrow because I’ve been wide awake since 2am…

Yesterday my max 5 minute shower was interrupted at least 3 times for me to be the voice of a stuffed animal. #momlife

Midwesterner here, but my kids use bum, don’t know how we started it (tbh probably Bluey), but it is precious.

Until “SOMEBODY COME WIPE MY BUM!” is yelled at the top of one’s lungs. 😂😂😂

Just thinking out loud here, but maybe the parent with ADD shouldn’t be the one in charge of remembering to give medications… 🤦‍♀️

No one prepares you for the wave of emotions when you can no longer shop for your child in the toddler section.

Why is the Far Right making being an empath and wanting the best for humans regardless of sex, gender, nationality, race, religion, age, etc a bad thing?!

How can I have legal in case of emergency or untimely death guardianship paperwork done at a low/no cost?

4 days ago in Northwest Iowa it felt like -30something outside, today my car says it is 37 degrees, every block has kids playing outside and one little girl was wearing a tank top. Welcome to the upper Midwest.

And Jesus said “love you neighbors” …but not if they’re POC, LGBTQIA, poor, or not Christian.

My biggest fear at work is accidentally making a cup of decaf coffee instead of regular.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Raise your hand if you should have gone back to sleep after nursing an hour ago but instead got in an argument with your brother-in-law over FB messenger about RFK Jr and are also responding & posting on Bluesky like an unhinged crazy person.

Anybody found them yet? This country is getting a little too much like a thriller book/movie for me and I don’t like it.
