Exactly! He’s so great in the role *and* he’s a giddy life-long fanboy. He got such a crap deal with his scripts and storylines, I feel bad for him.

“Nazi clown car” is the perfect description! For shits and giggles, I was clicking around on WhiteHouse.gov last night — some content is left over from the Obama administration, whatever content in there seems to be written by fascist 5th grader and some links (like the one for “The President”) go to dead pages. Yup,…

See?! We *can* all agree on something. :-p

This is how you do it.

I’ve worked in human rights with people who see the very worst of humanity day in and day out and sometimes risk their own lives for justice. They would have been *all* over this. You have to preserve your sanity to fight the good fight. And keep fighting, because this is going to be a long haul.

Really? Ugh. I am so sorry to hear that. I wish there had been more diversity at the Austin march, but I did see “Black Lives Matter” signs and one specifically — a little girl in a stroller with a sign that said “My Life Matters” — really got to me.

See you there!

Oh, he definitely doesn’t realize that a president has to work on weekends. Or holidays. Or through late nights/early mornings. Or during rare astronomical events.

Did you happen to catch this story in “Vanity Fair”? Trump is talking about signing legislation and he says, “Day one—which I will consider to be Monday as opposed to Friday or Saturday. Right? I mean my day one is gonna be Monday because I don’t want to be signing and get it mixed up with lots of celebration.”

Me too! I’d go back and reread those sections all the time.

I can’t believe our bar has now been lowered to “Hey — at least the Trump administration didn’t nuke Europe!”. God grant me the confidence of a mediocre white man.

This, on a loop, has been my internal monologue for the past three days.

That gave me my first genuine chuckle in a couple of days. I’ll never get tired of office politics on the Death Star.

We’ve got them in the suburbs of Austin, unfortunately. And yard signs.

My little one also will cry-it-out almost to the point of vomiting. And it’s a bear to calm her back down after she has worked herself up so much — like, we’re signing on for another hour plus of being awake with her. Seriously, kids and parents are all individuals and every family is different. You need to save your…

Oh man, I totally sympathize. See my post above — my daughter is the exact same way. Sigh.

Thanks for this. It helps me to know that you finally found a solution. My 13-month old is a great kid and a horrible sleeper. She has been since she was a newborn who only napped for 20-45 minutes at a time. She can’t wind down at night, battles sleep, wakes up at a pin drop, and has trouble going back down when she…

That song is magic. I’ve been singing to my 2-month old at night — the other day, I played the clip and sang “The Rainbow Connection” for her. She started grinning, and of course, I choked up and could barely finish the song.

Thanks! Yeah, I’m realizing how some of the lists out there are plain crazy — one advised bringing a gift basket for the labor and delivery staff. Sure, I might send something if I have a good experience — *after* my baby is born. Why the hell would I focus on that before even getting to the hospital?

I’m packing my hospital bag this week, and the most important/agonizing decision is which snacks to take for a postpartum treat.
