The 10s had a friend over yesterday afternoon. When her dad let her know he was here to get her, the friend went to our pantry and helped herself to a chocolate croissant to go. And like, I am not mad at that in any way.

As a Black mother, someone who studied neuroscience.I fought for over a year to get my son the right care. Before meds, he was self-harming. RFK Jr.’s dangerous rhetoric dismisses families like mine who’ve seen the real, life-changing impact of treatment. #MOMSky. wordinblack.com/2025/02/rfk-...

The notion that Trump's "I'm king" tweet is "just trolling" or "a joke" presents an opportunity to recreate my just-joking thread (porting it over from the Bad Place): 1. I wrote my PhD dissertation on the social function of humor (in literature & film) and here's the thing about "just joking."

For the 2nd day in a row 7 has talked about wanting to die. 10a tells him it's not funny and he doesn't want to. 10b makes a joke and gets him to laugh. I listen to all this from another room. And regret not remembering to bring it up at his therapy today.

Today in Every Day a New Horror, the chances of power outages here in the PNW is about to astronomically increase, because DOGE is ripping wires out of the walls of our power grid for no fucking reason, of course. Time to buy a generator. Cool cool. via @thestranger.com

Sepsis rates are highest when a fetus still has a heartbeat upon hospital admission. If a doctor evacuates the uterus too soon, they could be prosecuted. If they wait too long, the mother could die. This is the reality of abortion bans. #AreWeGreatYet www.propublica.org/article/texa...
