The only autistic person who doesn’t pay taxes is Elon Musk.

I plan on talking to my kids about Christianity, but like in the same way I plan on talking to them about fentanyl.

Anyone else have a four year old daughter that’s kind of like a cave woman?

My son turned 9 today. I said, “I can’t believe my a baby is nine.” He said, “DON’T YOU THINK IT’S ABOUT TIME I TURNED NINE?!”

Moral of the story: Do not be jealous of those girls trip photos ever again.

I NEVER want to hear another condescending speech from a Republican about money, business, or taxes ever again.

Kind of appropriate to show the Ratliffs realizing things will be changing the night before the stock market crash. #WhiteLotus

I guess there’ll never be a spa for the poors. Wow, Belinda. #WhiteLotus

Although my daughter was born in 2020, she has strong 80s 90s riot girl energy.

Some guy read my bio on Threads and said he wanted to write a movie about my life as if he was the first to think of this despite the fact I’ve been writing about my life for at least ten years. I emailed him to ask if he ever sold a screenplay before. He never wrote back and unfollowed me.

Usually for my son’s birthday I spend a lot of $ on a fancy cake. Yesterday I bought a cake at the grocery store and put some Roblox characters I bought from Etsy on top. All the kids “Wow!!!!!!!” Then they proceeded to barely eat it and just play with the Roblox characters.

As a SAHM I kind of wish I could just talk to room of adults for 25 hours straight.

Anyone else remember how Val Kilmer toured a one person show where he played Mark Twain? Just him as Mark Twain talking for hours?

I think my four year old daughter would be really good at the filibuster.

I used to be scared of self driving cars, but now I’m kind of looking forward to the day I do not have to drive on the road with people on their phone.

I loved the 4th episode of Adolescence even though I had no idea what they were saying.

I’ll take your parenting while perimenopausal and raise it a parenting while having chronic allergies and sinusitis.

Nothing like trying to convince your 8 year old he has to go to school so he can get a job one day on the same day I read the headline that Bill Gates said there will be no jobs in 10 years.

You know what’s unfair? Thinking you woke up early before the kids and they wake up a minute later.

Laugh at Meghan Markle’s show all you want, but that woman is surviving the apocalypse.

Why yes, sir, I will pay 10,000 dollars for an Atlantic subscription.

Florida: We’re deporting all the workers, time to adjust child labor laws! amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/03/...

This morning my 4yr old daughter is teaching me the elaborate process of washing rocks. All the rocks were bought in a store and are not dirty but…

Mr. Milchik has to be one of the greatest TV characters of all time.

Wow, I think we used have two George Foreman grills. Condolences to all the George Foreman Jr.’s.

If you’re over 40 and get all your news from pundits and still fall for hyperbole, you’re not smart enough to vote.

My hatred for RFK JR supporters knows no bounds. The portion of the DOE that handled special needs children is going Health and human services, aka RFK. The man who wants to link autism with vaccines, has said Black children with ADHD need to be reparented, and promotes the notion of wellness camps.

Randomly remembering the time I worked in Brentwood and saw Emmitt Smith eating with Piers Morgan, leave, and then Arnold Schwarzenegger taking their seat. And honestly the most surprising part was Emmitt Smith’s wife, so pretty I couldn’t believe she was real.

I’m finding With Love, Meghan very soothing. Like Mr. Rogers neighborhood for women in their 40s.

Every morning I wonder what my kids will want to fight about and this morning it was doing dishes. Who would do them and how much they’d get paid. Although there were no dishes because we just woke up. This went on for over 30 minutes.

Our daughter goes to an Irish Catholic school so now I have to also lie about leprechauns.

Severance is giving Never Let Me Go.

Terrible Twos, Threenager, is Four Feral? Because…

This elderly man showed up to support an anti-trans bill in my home state and then, because he had to wait hours to testify, he was stuck listening to queer folks rally against it By the time it was his turn to speak, he'd changed his mind Never doubt that speaking out can change hearts and minds

With Love, Meghan is out of touch? Great, if there is anywhere I want to be right now it’s out of touch.

Rivian should run adds saying they’ll accept Tesla trade-ins.

Million Dollar Idea: Stanley Tucci Italian chain restaurant.

Watching Eraserhead for the first time and wondering what David Lynch’s children think of it.

Getting caught up on all the SNL50 stuff and it is amazing how many of the SNL women can sing, like really sing.

I just finished Little Women and cannot believe I didn’t read it sooner. Should be required reading.

People finding the irony in Demi Moore starring in a film about ageism and losing the Oscar to a younger woman - I also found it ironic she went on a press tour about aging gracefully when she is 60 and looks like that.

Mikey Madison carried the film that won all the awards. It makes sense.
