when it comes to art I don’t recommend having heroes. you take what you need from this broken world and let go of what no longer serves you.

I don't know what Pickleball actually is and I am maintaining that ignorance willfully because there's no way it's as funny as the things I am imagining.

I assume that at that point they all open to enclose each other like a set of nesting dolls and you end up only having to deal with one extremely structurally dense kid.

The fragmentation of social media has been especially hard on indie projects being able to raise money which pays for things like our high quality human editing for both audio and transcripts (no ai!) If you've been vaguely thinking of becoming a patron of Lingthusiasm, consider this a reminder?

The toddler can’t quite say “s” or “sh” sounds at the beginning of words yet so they keep holding their shoes up in the air and shouting “YOUSE” like an old man from Brooklyn.

Imagine for one second if the NYT marshaled its massive influence towards voter registration, towards supporting voting rights groups, towards encouraging people to vote and fighting people who try to stop people from voting. Imagine if the NYT actually championed participatory democracy.

Honestly kind of laughable they’re recognizing this now, four years into the pandemic?? Of COURSE covid isn’t seasonal, we knew this after the first year! Great their messaging finally reflects the science but it’s a little too late, especially without any mandates to enforce recommendations.

I need the straights out there to understand that the presence of queer characters isn't what makes a story queer, and that you will never be the authority on whether a story is or isn't queer. It's fine and healthy to acknowledge that not every conversation includes you.

One of the toddler’s favorite games is “Boom,” in which we all hang out in the bed and deliberately fall over while saying “boom.”
They’re right; it is extremely entertaining.

Eventually you have to come to grips with the basic truth that people are just people and not purely good or evil and thus much more interesting, and that the world of narrative opens up quite a bit once you stop trying to make some hypothetical supremely good person the protagonist of every story
