Today is arguably the biggest day of my career (a move i co-wrote is out!!!) and i spent the morning answering in depth yet confusing questions on how a steering wheel works to my 5 yr old (she was not satisfied by the standard information of turning it left makes you go left, etc.)
The year is 2000. You & your bff are smoking weed from an aluminum can and playing tony hawk pro skater in some guys house. You smoke yourself into the future: you, 25 yrs older, trying to locate the lost kpop demon hunter costume for your 5yr old. Surely not you think before hitting the can again.

A dishwasher but with Toddler Mode, they can hit any button they like and it wont mess up your settings. Also, big beeps and bright lights flash while they do whatever they wish.

Holy hell yes. And each day it’s 5-8 messages. And sometimes they throw in an automated call too just to really throw you off.

Got invited to a kids bday party and the address on the invite is latitude/longitude coordinates and it’s fair to say this is weird right? (And no, they are not in a rural area, they are in a large subdivision)

This take is really sticking with me today. Imagine being pissed people are taking their kids to school. Imagine believing school buses are ubiquitous. Imagine enjoying a few extra moments with your kid in the morning. ALSO THERE ARE NO FUCKING BUSES IN OUR DISTRICT CAI.
Why the fuck is everybody dropping off their kid at school personally like a little chauffeur? Put them on the fucking bus, you're not a fuckin driver. You're not a fucking slave.

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

It’s amazing how quickly your soul can heal by just chatting for 10 mins with another mom who is also In The Thick of It.

I have survived 238 days of solo parenting this year. Will be 252 by the end of the year. I used to be fun and chill. And now…I dont know what I am. But certainly not fun and chill.

If you’re on the fence about having kids I just plopped into bed and felt something squishy and it was a pile of scrambled eggs. Not on a plate. Just…there.
