Elderly man ahead of me in grocery line, shaking his head in disbelief: "$20 for coffee. Yuban coffee is $20. We're done." If you voted for Trump, please explain why you think this is okay.

We urge the President and Congress to reconsider closing the Department of Education. The Dept. supports programs like Title I preschool and IDEA Part C for infants & toddlers with disabilities that help ensure children get the strong start they need to thrive. Read our statement: bit.ly/41HER2v

Worth the read. Interesting thing is, though, that if you routinely engage with a baby AS IF she is conscious, she will prove that to you. Better than any experiment could. www.newscientist.com/article/mg26...

How studying babies' minds is prompting us to rethink consciousness
The debate over when consciousness arises has been revitalised by new tests of awareness in infants – raising the possibility that it emerges just before birth

Here in LA we like to cram as many catastrophes as possible into the first two months of the year: fires, floods, earthquakes, satanic government takeovers. Builds resilience 😑

Yes, kids will need to learn academics but these lessons shouldn't be straight-jacketed onto them in the toddler & preschool years. The funneling down of structured learning is even MORE reason to let kids play while they can. Let's protect this precious, ever shrinking window of time for our kids

What's the hardest part about setting limits with our kids? Allowing them to disagree and then letting, even encouraging, them to express that to us. This dynamic is the key to effective relationship-centered discipline.

Thank you @jimacosta.bsky.social for refusing to comply in advance and standing up for democracy and freedom of the press! THIS is what EVERY journalist, news anchor and political analyst should be doing! Don't give in to the fear. Don't give in to the lies.

👎 to Amazon, Meta, Google, Walmrt, McDonalds, Target, Ford for their spinelessness in ending DEI initiatives. Need to find a way out of Meta & Google. Rest are easy to lose. 👏 to the brands that didn't cave: Cosco, elf, Chase, GoldmanSachs, Apple, BofA, Marriott, Microsoft, Proctor&Gamble, Delta

So Target got real comfy thinking us millennial moms won’t take our basic girl bits to Costco & Aldi after they cut DEI programs to satisfy the new administration. Big mistake. Huge.

Sending love & prayers to my fellow Angelenos. Lived here since I was one through two big earthquakes, mud slides & many fires. We nearly lost our home in 2017 when our neighborhood was ravaged. But I've never seen anything like this. Please know that you are not alone. We'll get through this, LA!
