It all first started when the Roomba ran over his foot on a full moon.

Things got pretty sentimental telling my son he’s going to be a big brother. But there are practical concerns too. Lotta logistics. Double the car seats. Double the daycare. And a preternaturally verbal witness to silence if we ever want to successfully convince the new one he’s adopted.

It’s a cool biological adaptation that just as boys get old enough to stop absolutely coating their faces in food every meal, they begin to grow facial hair. Like somehow evolution just knows that male faces are genetically gross when directly exposed to the elements.

As a millennial father, I feel it’s my duty to end each night by imparting one drop of foundational life wisdom gleaned from all those hours spent with my best and only childhood friends, the X-Men. Tonight’s lesson: “people fear what they don’t understand.”

Nobody show this to Rini. Instead, show yourself to @myqkaplan.bsky.social’s new special (also titled “Rini,” in what I can only assume is a hilarious coincidence). youtu.be/y0uf9i_z-Aw

Sometimes as a parent, you find yourself wrapping your kid up in a yoga mat because that’s what he wanted. And then, when he gets stuck, you’re thinking, “Cool. Hope I didn’t just give him a lifelong fear of Little Debbie Swiss Rolls. Or Southeast Asian fitness culture.

I know the Adam and Eve story isn’t meant to be taken literally, but it really does feel like men got there first when they were handing out gender roles. Like Adam had already given all the predators badass names and was like, “Great first day.

As a Jewish father, I’ll never have to tell my kid Santa isn’t real. But one day I am going to have to tell him that Roomba’s parent company, iRobot, went out of business. So yeah… let’s just say I get it.

Part of being a parent is figuring out how to let your tiny frustrations out without your kid ever feeling it—or even noticing it in the first place. For example, if you can convince them you’re playing vampire, you never have to explicitly tell them they suck. #EverybodyWins

“So act that you use humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of any other, always at the same time as an end, never merely as a means.” — Immanuel Kant, talking about my kid trying to get a stray cat to tickle his feet when the cat clearly has ends of its own it’s pretty busy tickling.

There is so much poetry in Stephen Colbert celebrating his finale on the exact stage where the Beatles changed culture in 1964. Singing "Hello Goodbye" surrounded by his family, his band, and his crew before Paul McCartney flipped the final power switch. This was the perfect full-circle goodbye!

Size isn't everything. 😉 #StreetArt #Vienna

It feels a little too on the nose that as Springsteen is giving this speech about civility and democracy and the feeling of alienation toward neighbors, a guy next to me yells “Fuck you, Bruce, you suck.”

Oopsie! Dave McCormick (R-PA) catches himself calling it the "Trump Regime" mid-sentence. Gotta love it!

Mariners:

American incomes are decaying. The personal savings rate has collapsed to historic lows. People aren’t spending because they’re thriving — they’re spending because they’re surviving. This isn’t sustainable. The economy is broken for working people.

The way you talk to yourself matters. Every time you tell yourself you “should” be handling something better, your nervous system hears criticism instead of safety. Try replacing judgment with observation: “This is hard right now.” That small shift can help your brain stop fighting itself.
