I had an amazing weekend in Des Moines with the 17yo. Perfect weather, phenomenal music, good friends. One of the best parts was a little ice cream place called Black Cat Ice Cream, and when you walk in there’s an entire wall of framed photos of costumers’ black cats

I woke up and checked Bluesky and some reporter at Rolling Stone is mad at me because I haven’t heard of a country singer. My dude, I’m a 57yo mom of five with a full time job. I promise you I’m just deeply uncool and oblivious. I’m not tryna flex on you. Settle down

The so-called "Center for Intellectual Freedom" is just an utter clown show. It's a microcosm of the MAGA governance model, hiring buffoons who just bloviate and step on rakes all day long

This year I decided to listening to a lot of folk punk to get me in the spirit of Kol Nidre, and it's truly surprisingly effective. For all who observe, may you have an easy fast and create within yourselves a new heart and a new spirit

Dear every single American*: I know you are struggling, but I promise you, whatever your problems are, not one of them is caused by my 17yo nonbinary kid or my 21yo trans daughter.

I have a FUCK ICE sticker on my iPad, and this weekend when I went through TSA at the airport, the TSA guy was like, “Wow, why so angry?” And I said, “uh, because of concentration camps and murders,” and then we were just both awkwardly quiet, but I made it through security okay, so there’s that

Penny climbed up onto my lap this morning and demanded snuggles and skritches. After about 30 minutes of that, I lay down on the floor, and she crawled up on my chest, and we just cuddled awhile. This is a very blissful skunk #SkunkSky

Took the 16yo to Des Moines to see Bug Hunter and Narcissist Cookbook, and while I was familiar with and love Bug Hunter's oeuvre, Narcissist Cookbook was new to me, and I was absolutely blown away by the talent, empathy, and utter poetry of their work. Please enjoy my new favorite song!

My kids have created a Netflix profile called "Use this one to watch garbage that is bad," which is genius all by itself. But then I regularly get emails from Netflix addressed to "Use this one to watch garbage that is bad" recommending content, and the recs are always spot-on. Today's gem:

Penny was such a good, brave girl at the vet yesterday. Turns out she has a knee injury, and for various Vet Reasons things like a splint or a cart are neither helpful nor practical, so her treatment plan is to get all doped up on gabapentin and lie around for a few days while it heals itself.

This is way funnier than it has any right to be. "Improving my mind by listening to recordings of Theo Von guessing how science works" had me cackling. Of course, it's Josh Gondelman, so I should have known

This is the story of an Extremely Naughty Kitty. Jibanyan is about 14 months old, and he has recently become obsessed with the air conditioning vents. It started when he figured out how to dislodge the vent covers, so he could dig out all the hair ties he’d bated in there over the past year
