It was like 30 minutes of her solo-ing Part of Your World. Love it.

My toddler wanted us to play pretend. SO she's Ariel (the little mermaid) and I'm the scarecrow (wizard of Oz) But I'm not needed for this part of pretend so she's told me to basically sit off stage (the kitchen) and wait for my lines to be provided 🤣🤣 I made an afternoon coffee.

I hate when there's one interview participant who just says everything beautifully. But you really cannot just quote her the whole time

Transcribing so many interviews about the hospital makes me miss it. That team science and patient engagement taught me SO much.

I was still sleeping in 3 hour windows. And driving an hour it to and from daycare. I do think PhD school had so much more flexibility than my job job would have so that helped but the brain power to stay away for both school and baby was work.

Was talking to a school classmate/colleague about babies as she has an 8 month old and I have a 3 year old. During our conversation she realized that I started the program when my babe was only 3 months old and looked 😳. Looking back, I truly cannot comprehend how I did anything at that time.

This interview participant had me cracking up the whole interview AND cracking up again as I transcribe 🤣

Anti-LGBTQ orgs have explicitly stated they USE sports as a "gateway drug" to undermine trans people's rights. They've also said this is how they eventually roll back all progress on LGBTQ rights. Newsom falls for it hook, line, and sinker.

The amount of long Island that comes out when I'm interviewing someone else from long Island is wild. I don't think I would realize how extreme it gets if not for having to transcribe the interviews.

I'm currenlty in the last couple days of my medical sociology course and I am just hoping the students have learned enough in the class to apply these ideas to the risks being faced with this bill.

After President Donald Trump threatened to have Zohran Mamdani, the newly elected Democratic nominee for New York mayor, deported if he blocks Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids in New York, Mamdani responded forcefully. wapo.st/3I6XkiZ
A quote from Zohran Mamdani, the newly elected Democratic nominee for New York mayor, that reads, "The President of the United States just threatened to have me arrested, stripped of my citizenship, put in a detention camp and deported. Not because I have broken any law but because I will refuse to let ICE terrorize our city."

I assigned memos for the summer course I'm teaching - it's lecture notes and reflections - and I'm blown away by the student engagement with the material. It's so fun to read. Especially in an asynchronous online class where interaction is limited.

Every cut that the government makes to social services is effectively a tax on women. Because they're the ones who will be expected to fill in the gaps.

I read this not as sociopathy but as the neoliberal devaluation of care. Care work--like cleaning up--is too labor-intensive to be highly profitable. So, if we're each supposed to maximize our profit-making potential, then those with more privilege have incentive push care work onto those with less.

I kind of want to use this doctors testimony in my med soc class. She walks the court through how she became a medical expert and includes a break for care taking responsibilities.

Explained today how I sometimes struggle to sound out words to spell them because of my Long Island accent. My accent is definitely stronger in my internal dialog than when interacting with people.

Not everyone is thinking this hard about egg placement in the fridge. But this is a common sense approach to egg storage for me.
000
Bonnie @bssunshine.bsky.social · 12/05/2025
When I think of my common sense it's that it's important to put the egg carton in the fridge heavy side out so the next time I need eggs I don't lift from the lighter side and accidentally drop them.

People need to stop using g the phrase "common sense" as if we all have the same starting point and end point in our thinking.

The feedback I got on this proposal was basically " I know you have read about this, make sure you put what you know in here." I went back into some old papers annnnnd she was right - I definitely already have all these sections written.
