I explain to people that I limit my kids’ photos online because it’s an issue of consent. They should have the choice about whether their lives are documented online. I’ll share a few photos on FB with family and friends here and there, but that’s mainly because we all live in different parts of the country.

I finished Glow in 2 days, and then was sad it was over. It was great this season! Stellar work all around.

That show was so good, from beginning to end. I really hope it gets some love!

When the first episode started I thought, oh man, this guy is annoying. And then about 10 seconds later I was in love! JVN is a gift. I just started his podcast and was so excited that there are 50+ episodes ahead of me! 

That was really powerful, wasn’t it!? Instead of hearing God hates you, you’re a sinner...to have someone previously homophobic acknowledge there is a Divine intention in you being you, and all of you doing this work at this moment...it was beautiful.

Yes to all of this. My spouse has the traditional 9-5 white collar career downtown. He commutes by train, so his schedule is pretty fixed. I will absolutely say that he could have been a guy who worked 8-7 to get higher up on the ladder, but chose to be home by 5:30 every night. So he did make choices about advancing

I watched this tonight and...I have no words. She said all of the words that I’ve felt and wanted everyone to hear.

It was so good. So, so, so good. I didn’t see it until recently, so I forgot Coogler was the director. The scene where Adonis is running with the bike crew next to him, and the shot slows down was such a gorgeous moment that I stopped to look up the director and was like “Gah! Of course!” I want Michael B. Jordan to

Don’t forget Jake and Boyle!

Exactly. It gives a mom time to think about what she can use as leverage :)

Your SEXtant tape!

I DID watch it. I watched every episode! I can’t remember another show that consistently made me and my husband laugh out loud over and over. I’m so friggin’ sad.

The last time I was in Portland, OR every business had compostable, corn-based “plastic” cups and straws. I saw it a lot in Seattle, too. If we could get that to happen nationwide AND change some other habits it could help. There are a lot of things that have changed for the better since I was a kid. It used to be

This wasn’t a thing when I had my pregnancies, but I honestly think if people have fun with this moment, go for it. With #1 we found out at the ultrasound and it was very anticlimactic. It’s hard to be all exuberant with your belly out and covered in gel in a doctor’s office. With #2 we found out when he was born, and

Balloon releases immediately make me think about what animal might get sick or die from eating them or getting tangled in them. That said, I watched this a bunch of times trying to figure out how those balloons were filled with other balloons.

They don’t need to run a Republican — they have Dan Lipiniski.

“I’ve done all I need to here, time for pants!”

It also feels like it diminishes the original pup. Like, you weren’t really one of a kind, Sammie, you can be replicated. I understand the impulse like so many here do (my dog has been informed he has to live forever), but it just seems like such a waste to do this.

Fresh Off The Boat had a delightful episode recently about Lipinski v. Kwan.

Woot! Go Marie! We’ve been working hard to get her out there, and Dan is feeling the pressure. We have no use for a Dem who votes with Republicans 50% of the time.
