I tried so hard but halfway through we went to bed and never picked it back up

it’s a constant struggle, trying to figure out what’s an actual good movie I should show my kid and what I just have nostalgia for
(we’ve tried twice with Ghostbusters and never made it through, and I’m sorry to say I think Star Wars is going to be a bust too, after multiple tries)

My husband has such fond memories of watching it a gazillion times as a kid and I keep preventing him from trying to make our tween watch it

of course the same kind of thing happens here but it drives me crazy when people are like "I'm staying on twitter where people understand jokes." no they don't! they never have. this kind of thing was a common problem years before bluesky existed.

"Connecting with people? Making changes in the world? Telling important news stories? No no I am a media commentator and my only goal in life is for my numbers to be high enough to get a big outlet to pay me a lot of money and let me publish my very important thoughts where everyone can read them."

The thing I want most from social media is to be entertained and chat in an asynchronous non-pressured way with interesting people whenever I fucking feel like it. Bluesky does this. /2

I forget which brand we have, but it's the most common one. We keep it by the kitchen sink since it gets everything so wet.

My new hygienist told me the skinny ribbons are useless, but my teeth are so tight it's hard to get thicker floss in! I decided it was better than nothing

a compelling argument I've yet to see a counter for

The ninth inning was also ridiculous! The Giants added on, but the Rockies managed to get runners on and the tying run to the plate with two outs... then lost. Way more brutal than just losing.

Once you start doing it and realize how much food you were leaving between your teeth all the time...yikes

man what did the Rockies do to piss off God

the Giants just came back from a blown lead in an insane inning that included a walked-in run and it’s not that the Giants are good so much as that God is angry with the Rockies

ok I was like “wait wasn’t someone just talking about him the other day” and now this thread feels Ominous

I think the idea is they're supposed to shape kids' minds but it feels like a chicken and egg thing! There are a few lit books I'm glad I read young but mostly they would have done me more good later

Right! I think he went soft under Biden. He needs an obvious person much worse than him for scale

Oof yeah that one seems bleak

I will say, trying to read this for meaning feels kind of futile as I am constantly imagining classrooms full of bored teenagers tearing every sentence apart. The greatest curse any book can be afflicted with is to become part of the high school canon

brought to you by “please don’t make me defend Gavin fucking Newsom, I’ve hated him longer than some of you have been alive but he pushed back hard against Trump the first time and got tons of great things done in the state until the heel turn last year”

Just absolutely in love with this painting that's a centerpiece of the Thiebaud show, entitled "35 Cent Masterworks." With its display of reproduced artworks, from Velázquez to de Chirico, it's like catnip for an art historian

Yeah as a young adult nerd I learned very fast that hardly any guys were welcoming about their nerd hobbies, and if they were they didn't want to date a fellow nerd, they wanted conventionally desirable women. Kind of gave the game away.

I had such trouble not saying it when my oldest was little and would only ever watch the Elmo portion of Sesame Street
