Tutoring a student in the *one* subject that I truly struggled in during high school. So my confidence is low but it’s never too late to learn high school chemistry. 🧪😅

Woof 🫠

I wish!! We have friends coming to visit and none of my friends can spare theirs so I was like “oh, I should just buy one to have on hand” and literally *all of them* are black 😑

Who is the color consultant at Graco?! ALL OF THEIR PACK ‘N’ PLAYS ARE BLACK OR GREY. UGH. 😑 SO UGLY.

In the last two years, I have gotten over 100 shots, either allergy treatment, allergy meds, vaccines or other medications. I feel like a human pincushion and I am tired of getting poked.

Not “we’re the hottest country in the world” said out loud from our “leader” to literal royalty.

🤦🏼‍♀️

When I was a kid, I had hoped by the time I was an adult my family have learned to be more kind, but turns out given time they’ve only become more hurtful and harmful.

There is something in me they hope to destroy, but I won’t ever give up hope that being kind matters.

Watching Lou Wilson eat aioli on Adventuring Party has to be hands down one of the most horrific things I have ever witnessed but I could not look away.

Good god. 😂

This really shows my point that 🍊 has no imagination and can only imagine a darker, more bleak world. He is a predator, and thinks it’s a good thing.

Texting with my “twin” sister today and finding out she’s my most sane sibling was not on my bingo card but what a freaking relief.

Someone please tell me why I have barely made it 5 minutes into Matilda and I’m already crying

Just cuttin’ up at the Verizon store today cured something in me. Walking out saving money and having a smile on my face. Community is everything.

Yep! Starting the looking now.

Me: fighting for my life to have less than 1 migraine a month (after having 30+/ year)
My doctor: once a month? That’s not bad at all. 🥲
Me: yeah, so I’m concerned. I have had more blood pooling recently.
Doc: oh, that’s because you’re fat

👍

Turns out doing the Artist’s Way *has* unlocked my creativity which is why I have been up working on projects until 2 in the morning for the last two nights.

Made an allusion to Abbott and Costello’s “Who’s On First?” and learned my husband had never seen the skit. Remedied that immediately. 🥲

I really want to thank @dropout.tv.
Full stop.

Beyond the overt evil, the President saying that he *hates* the people of this country (which we already knew) is absolutely wild.

It is his job to work for the good of all people in this country.

The right has so far eroded decency and decorum. It’s shameful.

Freedom from kings.
Freedom from fascism.
Power to the people forever. ♥️

Happy Independence Day 🇺🇸

"A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people."

—The Declaration of Independence

To continue to stoke your imagination for a better future, and then to labor to build it is the best thing you can do.

We grieve today, and continue on tomorrow. A better future is possible, together.

That is an excellent point!!

Good morning, beloved.

The world won’t change itself.

It starts with a commitment.

It starts with us.

Today is a great day to overcome evil with good.

Got my full genetic panel back and I have *no* major genetic issues!! No genetic cancers, variants or mutations.

It doesn’t explain my health problems, but it was such a huge relief as we look towards starting a family. 🥺

Waking up in my own house and knowing I don’t have to make basic decisions like getting coffee and breakfast is incredible.

Wow. What a gift.

Is 7 hours enough to go from Heathrow to a museum in the heart of London and back?

We’re about to find out!!

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

Love public transit when it works. HATE it when it doesn’t.

Just ate Taco Bell in Spain.

Judge me. I dare you.

‘We didn’t see the daylight’: Migrant families describe prolonged detention in border facilities | CNN Politics Migrant families with young children, including toddlers, were held for days and sometimes weeks in US Customs and Border Protection facilities, some with jail-like conditions, according to interviews...

CBP is holding children in harsh, jail-like conditions for prolonged periods of time.

One toddler was separated from her father and held with her mother at a border facility for 42 days.

Children belong with their families at home — not in detention.
