My firstborn was IN THE AIR, on his first flight without me, on Monday when the Delta plane crashed. After a wonderful week at Disney with the marching band, he’s now safely back home and I can breatheeeeeee.

Also, I am sure auditions were merit based. Yinz KNOW none of us can dance like that.

I do just have to say that all the people who said they can’t see color seem pretty mad about the all-Black halftime show. How could they tell it was all Black??

There are literally not enough journalists employed in the US to cover the bad shit that is happening right now. We are now going to experience the social consequences of a weakened news industry--which are the same as the benefits of a weakened news industry, to those who weakened it.

Stop calling it “DEI.” It’s now a buzzword devoid of meaning to many. Call it what it is. “So, including older people in the workforce is a bad thing?” Or, “Having people of different races share an office space is a negative?” Don’t let them push hate without making them acknowledge it.

Journalists: When you ask the question this way, you are accepting the premise. The premise is that non-white men and women (including white women) are not qualified to do the job. Please don’t accept the premise. Frame the question in a way that challenges it. Thank you

Hegseth talking about hiring the best and the brightest actually makes me laugh out loud. Dude doesn’t even like like he could order an MTO at Sheetz on the little touchscreen.

The president is speaking right now, and is saying horrific, false, and truly damaging things on live television. And they will beleive every word.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

A local guy here in Pa said to me that he “doesn’t like Obamacare but really likes the insurance he gets through Pennie” and it was really fun to tell him Pennie is just what we call our Obamacare here in PA. Dude didn’t even KNOW it was Obamacare he liked.

It is a neverending heartache knowing that some who purport to love my kids are celebrating a president who is harming their wellbeing and diminishing their futures. I don’t know how you let it go. I don’t think it’s possible, when loved ones sell your kids out over the illusion of cheaper eggs.

After watching the Hegseth interviews today, I find myself searching for old episodes of Maury Povich and Jerry Springer. Made me feel nostalgic 🥹

I prefer even years, but I feel like 2025 gets a pass because 20 is even and 25 feels like a quarter, which fits neatly into a dollar (or a century🤪). It’s not totally rogue — not like a 2007 or 1993 type of situation.

Some love for Bellevue, PA from @megstesprit.bsky.social: “It’s not easy to lean on neighbors (or strangers), but I've learned over our decade in this little town that people are willing to look out for each other, if you open up your heart and let them.” www.businessinsider.com/child-kid-ru...

We didn't see our 11-year-old son at a holiday event for hours. We were never worried about him.

For many parents, letting a fifth grader run free for two hours might be scary, but we trust our kids and the community we live in.

Hiding in my butler’s pantry with a Christmas mug full of Diet Coke, while Mariah blares her classic holiday banger and my kids fight over building the Lego poinsettia set — a core holiday memory.

For a decade, we’ve received a Christmas card from Philadelphia for the previous owners. We’ve attempted to use social media to tell them, without success. I’ve become attached to the two boys I’ve watched grow up at the other end of our state. Honestly, when it stops, I’ll be a little bit sad.

My 13yo changed our family Monopoly rules. If you land in jail, you can just pay to get out at any time. “Just like the real world,” he said. “Rich people just buy their way out.”

Commenter on the news: “This is the last place you would ever think of a mass shooting happening.” Oh really? Because I think about them happening pretty much anywhere at this point.

Every time there is another school shooting, all I want to do is drive immediately to our schools and bring my babies home. My heart is broken for the families in Madison today. 10 years since Sandy Hook, just this week. What has changed? Very little.

The UHC assassin was arrested in an Altoona McDonald’s while stopped on a Greyhound on its way west to Pittsburgh/Chicago etc. Suspected shooter, of course. Charged with some local crimes at the moment like false ID.

Before you post the yearly “What should I get the teachers?” The answer is money. It’s not a mug or socks or a candle or wine. It’s money.

My 11yo, smashing Christmas bulbs with a hammer to make some elf mischief for his baby sister to find tomorrow: “Wow, this is really fun—like being bad but we are allowed. This is great!” And THIS is why I actually love the silly elves 🥰 It’s a month of prank wars!
