Even with the stress of work and money and kids and... alla this... I thought I was holding it together well enough. Then I caught myself wondering how I'd look with bangs. 🚩

An upside to aging - I don't care I do not care if people think I'm a big baby 'cause I don't do scary movies. The teens are watching Scream in the living room, I will happily clean this kitchen.

Every once in the bluest of moons I wonder what life would be like if I lived in/moved back to my Ohio hometown. And then I see the 400+ comment war on FB over LGBTQ books in the public library.

Taking the wins where I can find 'em: My 16yo suggested we rewatch Shock Treatment and make the 18yo join us. She told him, "It's not GOOD - at all - but the soundtrack's full of bangers."

We spent the weekend talking about class schedules, lunch options, and what to do if they are stopped or see a classmate stopped by ICE/NG.
As a new school year starts, Trump is terrifying the children of the District, thousands of whom rely on public transit to get to school and will now be greeted by a coterie of federal agents and armed soldiers who know nothing of their lives or their communities
For some in D.C., first day of school to look different under Trump crackdown
As President Donald Trump sends more federal forces to D.C. to fight crime, some residents worry about the impact on students and staff as school resumes.

Have to say, I did not anticipate enshittification turning up in sleep podcasts, but here we are. They're poorly done AI voices, and *in what universe* are these relaxing topics. It's amusing in a "kill me" sorta way.
