My dad just called me and this was our entire conversation Dad: DID YOU KNOW JOE COCKER ISN’T ALREADY IN THE ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME?!? Me: I didn’t! Dad: IT’S DISGRACEFUL! [laughs] Well, I got that off my chest. Bye!

Today’s energy

Cannot emphasize enough how much I love having a fellow Gen X co-worker who I don’t see for months at a time, but we still get each other

I work in a school where we have dentists come in and kids are PSYCHED to get their teeth cleaned. So, yeah, I think cuts to Medicaid will be catastrophic.

Me trying to explain how “using context clues” is not helpful to struggling readers: “If I told you to read a paragraph in Dutch and use some words to help you define other words, how would that work?” I can feel the irritation wafting off this person

My dad paid into Social Security for 6 decades; my mom for “only” 4 because she had a municipal job for a while. They rely on Social Security and Medicare. But even if they didn’t, millions of others do. The absolute cruelty of gutting these services.

*frantically smashing answer buzzer* what is, the adult fiction section of your hometown public library when you're 12-14 years old

Once I find my password and delete my account, it’s over for you … people

View from my window this morning

I still didn’t find my Tw#tter password, but I did enjoy this note

Our neighbors (the same little boys who love spooky Halloween shit) were so excited to show me and J their snowmen. Boys: These snowmen will scare the bad guys away!! Us: Oh, definitely!! Boys: So there are really bad guys?! Me and J: we’ve made a huge mistake

“What room are you in?” “Sounds good; see you then!” Just another productive email exchange

Me, explaining a new group discussion protocol: … so it’s exactly like March madness brackets except it isn’t fun and no money will change hands. What questions can I answer for you? X: Why are you like this? Me, sincerely: I enjoy being a ridiculous person sometimes.

Me: I need to leave earlier to not park higher up in the garage; can you move your car by 6:30? J: What is up with that Duke of Earl song? It’s like saying I’m the Prince of King!

DATA LIES ALL THE TIME. It’s called JUKING THE STATS! Watch THE WIRE! GROW UP!!!

Crying angry tears

“Why are so many kids failing?” How much time do you have? People reading on a second-grade level taking a high school standardized test are scoring exactly what they should be scoring. Why are they reading at a second-grade level? How much time do you have?

I just asked, “Do we want people to get good grades in this platform or do we want them to write well? Because those seem to be two different things.” There goes employee of the month for February

I made it through our “one share out from our weekend” without saying that I am thinking of taking up [something illegal]

J: I don’t want to go back to work Me: If you were excited about going to work, I’d wonder how you had recovered from a lobotomy so quickly

J: What are you up to Me: The guys on the Edmund Fitzgerald got screwed out of both breakfast and lunch before they died J: Jesus Christ

it's important to state two fundamental truths: no one, not even the worst piece of shit, deserves to die because they can't afford insulin. conversely, no matter how generous and moral and kind you are, if you buy a cybertruck and then it explodes and kills you, it's always funny

One time my brother texted me “way2B” and I literally fell off a barstool because I was laughing so hard. Some people just have the gift!

Done with planning for tomorrow and it’s still light out. Hooray! (Taking any victory I can get in 2025)

I’m self-employed so I know a few things about working for an asshole. I feel you, Federal employees

A feast for the senses!

When I had a desk job, I’d estimate (conservatively) that 50% of what I did was email. I wrote several one-act plays; my favorites were “Is it morally acceptable to microwave fish soup at work?” & “If she talks to me like that again, she’s going to be chewing on those tiny teeth like Chiclets”

Mystic is not here for your shit!

Listening to a podcast about property taxes on a road trip. I am a joy to be married to!
