If they are going to cut all the federal funding to Minnesota, I would like to cut my federal tax deduction. And I think nowadays you just need to proclaim something on social media for it to happen

Appreciate not only the display of humanity here, but also @pbump.com taking a second to note that there have been many other instances this year where other families probably felt the same way he does now.

Yesterday was a really dark day, especially living here in Minnesota.

Sometimes it can feel so overwhelming and impossible to make a difference.

This morning daughter’s teacher (1st grade) posted what her resolution was.

Raising the future generation to be better is an important role.

My goal for 2026 is to do at least 1 thing for myself every day.

I’ve been in a rut where I wake up a mom, work, go back to mom mode and then go to bed doomscrolling.

I want to find myself again.

This is hopefully my accountability 🧵

@amandabw425.bsky.social convinced me to watch Dawson’s Creek for the first time ever.

I know I’m 20 years late, but we don’t talk enough about how awful the Dawson character is.

All my love to JVdB. This is not a criticism of him as an actor.

New sites strongly overestimate my willingness to pay for a subscription. It is not humanly possible to pay for a subscription to every tv channel and every “news” site.

I’ll just find a similar article within 5 minutes just by scrolling.

Isn’t the point of ads to provide the revenue?

I’ve been the black sheep in my family for 32.5 years.

And I’ve spent as long as I can remember putting their feelings above my own.

Not sure how much longer I can do that. I’ve completely lost myself along the way.

It’s the same people that shit on participation trophies that voted for this president.

And he’s out here creating awards and medals for himself. Ironic.

Dear men,

Saying “I could have done that” while watching your partner do the task after it sat undone for 3+ days is not the flex you think it is.

Just do the task before it sits so long your partner does it.

America doesn’t even let women make decisions about their own body.

And in the process, white men will destroy this country just to not let a woman or poc be in charge.

Feeling overwhelmed by the amount of cleaning that needs to get done.

Using this thread to take it one thing at a time and keep me accountable.

First up, putting the groceries away.

As someone who works in mortgages

You can’t get a mortgage if you aren’t here legally.

How are they “taking” houses away from people here legally?
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

I’m currently not talking to my mom

And yet the minute I get sick, I just want my mom

But not this mom, the one I knew growing up. Or, I suppose, the person I thought she was.

I regret to inform you that I am now very sick and I have decided to be a big baby about it.
I fear I’m getting sick which unfortunately doesn’t fit into my busy schedule.

I’m gonna need to reschedule this illness for…18 years from now.

I’ve reached the point in my depressive cycle where I just want to watch the same show over and over again.

The comfort show has changed over the years.

Friends
Gilmore Girls
Big Bang Theory
Charmed (reboot)

Currently it’s Virgin River.

An active NFL player making millions, living out his childhood dream killed himself this morning.

Can we talk about mental health now?

How many more people are going to lose their battle before we admit that mental health matters?

If we had a real government, they would investigate the monopoly that is Disney/ABC/Hulu.

But no matter how many ways Disney tries to tell me it’s YouTube TVs fault, we all know it’s not.

So you do your thing, YouTube. Disney channels can wait.

Me to my 6 year old: not everything needs to be perfect. Drawing outside the line or choosing the “wrong” color is not a failure. It’s ok if you make a mistake. No one is perfect.

My brain: beating myself up all weekend for one small, insignificant mistake. You are better than that.
