“Kids nowadays don’t know any practical skills.”

Someone from the generation that decided to remove woodshop, auto shop, home economics, and personal finance from public school curriculums in exchange for more practical tests.

“If you support deportations you can’t eat Mexican food.”

The Mexican restaurant owner:
- Legal
- Has multiple family members who work for border patrol/ICE.
- Is more racist than me.

If I illegally immigrated to another country and got detained, my friends and family would be like “well that’s what you get” but when a rapist from Colombia comes here illegally and gets detained they think it’s fascism.

(heart)breaking news: almost 2yo just denied being my teeny tiny little baby. When I asked him who's my teeny tiny little baby in that case he replied confidently "dad"

If I feed my neighbors kids while letting mine starve, that would make me a bad mother.

If I let strangers into my home without knowing their character and intentions, that would make me a bad mother.

If those strangers harmed or killed my kids and I protected them over my kids, that would make me a bad mother.

If I put my kids in danger by engaging in unlawful activities, that would make me a bad mother.

Don’t be a bad mother. It really is that simple. America first.

This reminds me of something really brutal: no child truly knows their parents’ lives. We only know their lives as parents.

My wife ordered NyQuil via Walmart delivery.

It required photo ID for delivery.

...for NyQuil from Walmart

The man who delivered it couldn't speak English AT ALL, but took a photo of my ID.

...for NyQuil from Walmart

But somehow we don't need ID to vote???

That's so dumb.

I'm not interested in forcing anyone to become pregnant or not become pregnant. I honestly don't care! But once you're pregnant, another human exists, and it's wrong to kill that human. That I DO care about. I care about protecting innocent humans from violence.

NOT everyone is miserably married. Some men actually adore their wives and see her as his best friend. And some women actually love, respect, and cherish their husbands too. Healthy love still exists. May this kind locate you! 🙏

“What kind of legacy will you leave behind if you don’t have a career?” How sad to not realize the ultimate legacy is your family. My life’s work will be my children and I’m proud of that

[lia @tallsnail]

one underrated part of having a 2yo is that my husband and I have started talking to each other in his little mannerisms. like living with a funny roommate whose speech patterns are slowly infecting the household

[Josh Wood @J_K_Wood]

We all laugh, but what’s happening here is holy.

An instinct no ideology can suppress forever. Holding a baby rewires everything: your politics, your priorities, your purpose.

We’ve spent decades teaching women to resist this. Imagine a world where we stopped.

It’s not racist to prefer music at the American Super Bowl be performed in a language the majority of the country can actually understand

You know society is in total decay when sex work is being glorified, but a stay-at-home mom is seen as degrading.

[Nadia @thegenesisbl0ck]

I have a theory that many young women are indifferent towards motherhood simply because they’re hardly exposed to babies. Your heart melts when you hold a baby.

[Icona @iconawrites]

Always remember that for most of human history we did not have the technology to learn instantly about all the horrors happening all over the world. We used to worry only about our little village. It is normal to feel overwhelmed by it all. It is okay to log off and take a break.

[Preethi Kasireddy @iam_preethi]

A mom of 8 told me that 3-4 kids feels easy when her husband takes the older ones out.

Meanwhile I just added my third and everything feels like a LOT. But then I remembered that one kid used to feel hard. Now if my husband takes two of the kids somewhere, taking care of one kid feels like a breeze.

Your capacity isn’t fixed. It grows to meet the demand.
