I work as an HR consultant and am the co-Director of an immigration bond fund in Iowa. But I mostly use socials to talk about my three little kids.
ethical disobedience.

I've been thinking a lot about uncertainty. Some studies show people experience more stress when there is an uncertain POSSIBILITY of pain, than when there is CERTAIN predictable pain.

This week there were false alarms about ICE agents & anxiety was high. Maybe this is obvious, but.. (1/)

This is a real question:
Does it have to be an American buyer or just not China?

I get that the real goal is right-wing ownership for censorship purposes. I’m asking, as the law states, could a billionaire from like UAE swoop in and buy TikTok?

I am with the people predicting TikTok will be back by the end of the day Monday with a 90 day extension then purchase by right wing billionaire.

Unless the ICE rumors are true and it stays dark longer to allow them to move with my secrecy.

The depth of despair.

Can someone create a starter pack of TikTok leftist news / current events contextualizers?
I need to rebuild.

I keep thinking about Tuesday and the rumored ICE activity, particularly in Chicago. With the TikTok ban, I truly don’t know where to go for in-the-moment news I can trust.

I feel like I’m not like explaining Christmas well enough to my kids?
They don’t seem to get it. I thought this would be the year they would lock in and see the magic but they don’t seem to think it’s exciting? They are like take-it-or-leave-it about the whole affair.

My children discovered puppy chow tonight and are getting a trampoline for Christmas. I’ve officially left toddlerdom and entered our Childhood Era.

It snowed and it’s the first day it’s truly cold cold in Iowa. Seasonal depression peaking at the same time as Inauguration is going to be a terrible combination.

I’m the only in-law in my family—my husband’s sisters are both single moms— it’s a weird, lonely experience gathering for the holidays and still being an outsider after 8 years of marriage.

I met Michelle Obama. She gave me a huge hug and said ooooh cute shoes and I said, “I know right”!? In the most valley girl Cher from Cluelss voice possible and then that was it, she walked away and that’s all I’ll ever had said to Michelle Obama.
Twitter is doing “best celebrity interactions” discourse so we should do WORST ones

not necessarily like that they were a jerk, just that the interaction itself was a fail on some level

like one time Robert Sean Leonard walked past me and I short-circuited so badly I spilled guacamole on myself

Any other full time working, healthcare spouses out there? I work as an HR Consultant, have three little children and a husband in healthcare. I need some solidarity.

Left the bird app. Looking for live commentary on pop culture, leftist hot takes, and working mom solidarity.
