A 6yo boy in my daughter's class doesn't want to go to the Panto today because it's "a girl's one". The fuck?

Finally watched KPop Demon Hunters with the 6yo. She loved it (she has been bopping along to Golden for months already).

Do you think she missed me while we were away?

Back from a week in France where we had pastries every day for breakfast. Considering releasing a flock of sparrows into the car to clear the crumbs

Ok so #TheWheelOfTime S3 E6. Good episode, again some moments from the books truthfully retold. However, I cannot get over the fact that of all the accents they could have chosen for the inhabitants of the rough, seedy city they went with... Scouse

Just watched S3E4 of #TheWheelOfTime and I cannot sleep because it was so. Damn. Good. Very emotional that they portrayed such a pivotal book moment so truthfully. Wow #WotSkies

Critical thinking and reasoning skills definitely need teaching and developing in this day and age. Mainly against the spread of false information, bots, AI posts etc but also so people can understand the fucking joke on a cute dog account

New hobby: reporting all the reels about autism "remission" for false health information. So ableist and a load of absolute rubbish

Ok, so they whole starting the day again kind of worked. I took the dog for a run and we all ended up heading to IKEA for the evening

First official day of half term, we've already had extra screen time, kids whacking each other with wooden weapons, spilt orange juice thanks to the kitten. Sent everyone back to bed for 10 minutes and we're going to start again

Today I was very grown up and cleared the hallway shelf and tidied the shell collection on the bathroom window ledge. Tomorrow, we tackle the garage!
