Technically at the end of this video I sing-song’ed “back away,” but the caption auto-generated it as “taco wee,” and I gotta say, as a professional writer of silly little word combinations, this is the first time I was genuinely afraid my job could be done better by a robot.

Don’t tell his mom, but I’m secretly training my kid to be the Coyote who actually takes out his Road Runner. ACME discipline. Real-world physics. Maybe no TNT. 🧨

Teaching my toddler the word “doppelgänger” in case his brother is born with a cat allergy and he needs a non-ableist way to say “stop copying me.”

Rubik: “separate all the colors on my magical cube to prove you’ve got a high IQ.” Nice try, eugenics propaganda dweeb, but I don’t think I will.
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
All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players. In some cases, in the rare and demanding role of ‘Mama Who Must Sing With Me With the Kitty.’ An unconventional play, to be sure, and not one of Shakespeare’s best, which perhaps explains its omission from the canon.

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.
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.

Let’s be serious: the people in charge of this administration are not interested in merit. They've overruled the merit process to block the promotion of Black military officers - and lavish favors on people who can pay dues at Trump's private clubs or write big checks to his ballroom project.
