I feel sorry for Netflix era kids. They will never know the high stakes adrenaline of running to the bathroom/fridge/bedroom in a single ad break, with the beckoning call of a sibling screaming “It’s ONNNNNN” to send you hurdling over furniture to get back in time.
@vtothepowerof2 Its testament to your drive to be & do better. I get the same, the important thing is to remember its an amazing quality. If you were living in the stone age, you'd be the one looking at the distant hill and wanting to see what's over it, not sitting going:"this is a nice cave"

Promotion: If you are ever arrested and want a lawyer, you have to CLEARLY AND UNAMBIGUOUSLY assert that you want a lawyer. Statements like “hm I might need a lawyer” or “I think I should get a lawyer” are not enough to trigger your 5th amendment rights.
You know how sad it is to open up a kid’s backpack to grab his lunch and see a bulletproof shield? He’s in PRESCHOOL. A preschooler should not have to be carrying this around in his backpack. Seeing this broke my heart
Illness is so difficult to deal with; a thread: couple years ago my gran succumbed to cancer over a roughly 10 month period. The effects of that as a really close family member were really and a whirlwind. #MyThoughts
