I have no interest in live action Disney remakes, but I will admit that I desperately wish to see Doggie Kruger consider the coconut.

One of the many underrepresented skills of parenthood: Learning how to solve seven puzzles simultaneously because it's the only way to clean your living room floor.

Hard to believe that #SuperSentai has ended after 50 years. Much like #PowerRangers, I have faith that it will return, but also that it won't be the same when it does. An absolutely wild multi-decade run.

The real question is: "Why was this guy filming on his phone while walking in front of a moving vehicle if moving vehicles are scary enough to justify a shooting?"

You know, last year someone told me that it was disrespectful to compare ICE to the Gestapo because the Gestapo would have just shot you dead on a public street. Just putting that out there.

Let's be clear on our language. Trump didn't "liberate" #Venezuela. He didn't topple a dictatorship. He UNILATERALLY ATTEMPTED TO CONQUER A FOREIGN NATION BY KIDNAPPING ITS ACTING HEAD OF STATE. Unilaterally - without Congress/UN Conquer - take over Kidnap - illegally capture Words mean things.

I think that the most effective way I've found for staying hydrated is having a toddler that will immediately grab your water bottle if you leave it anywhere, run it right over to you, and then stare at you with anticipatory glee until you take a sip, grinning and applauding when you finally do so.

It's my senior year of high school. A classmate asks, "Did you hear we're at war with Iraq?" "You mean Afghanistan, right? "No, Iraq." "Why are we at war with IRAQ?" I didn't understand then. I do now. Money and power, every time. I'm so sorry, #Venezuela.

I can't help but notice that the most common dismissal of the #NoKings march is, "Is we really had a king, you wouldn't be able to protest." Which is not only deeply ahistorical and completely misses the point, but also feeds into the myth of authoritarian dictators being all powerful.

Quick update. Because of the personal stories shared in this video, I'm taking some extra time to show the interviewees the full edit and get their final approval. To make sure they all get to see it and provide feedback, I'm pushing the release back one more week.

Finally watched @linkara.bsky.social's 800th episode earlier, and I just had to watch that final scene with @mayonnaisejane.bsky.social, because we've ABSOLUTELY had that conversation SO many times over the years. The curse of the YouTube spouse is forever dealing with our spiraling nonsense.

I was reflecting upon how rarely I ever post on social media anymore, and it just occurred to me: In our current algorithmically polarized internet landscape, do people still use social media to... well... socialize? I'm bad at remembering to socialize in real life, so I personally have no idea.

This #IndependenceDay, remember that we didn't spend the first #FourthOfJuly celebrating our freedom, but declaring it. The Declaration of Independence is a commitment to ideals and rejection of tyranny. As we face those challenges again, let's renew those commitments alongside family and friends.

I know your R reps are garbage and it feels pointless to call them. But please call them today and tell them not to vote for Trump's murderous budget. The call costs nothing. The fact that it MIGHT save lives is all that matters. Find your US rep here: reps.fyi

Finally finished Season 3 of #TheWheelOfTime, and I so badly hope that this series finds a way to continue. I loved the books so much, and watching all of the alterations that this adaptation has chosen to make has been utterly FASCINATING. I need to know how they were going to handle the rest.

I made the mistake of watching the final episode of #CreatureCommandos last night. I was not emotionally prepared for that. As a parent of a child with a recurring respiratory issue, that one HURT.
