The Free Library of Philadelphia is having a normal one.

Poor little rich girl? I like Strangers, but then everyone said that wasn't allowed anymore.

[Amanda Harding @iamdeeda]

@kmoyer63 Yes, and I loved it!

[Amanda Harding @iamdeeda]

It was tempting to gatekeep, but the generous version of me feels compelled to share the magic of @knoebels with the world. They don't make them like this anymore.

One of the worst I've ever encountered.

In at least one aspect, @iamdeeda writes, "Margo's Got Money Troubles" is off to a strong start. https://t.co/KK9lPhOyzB

No, parents don't need $400,000 per year to afford childcare. Where do these crazy high estimates come from? @iamdeeda breaks it down: https://t.co/HgxHwwu6Yr

@Katy_Faust @megbasham YES!! I just wrote about this… so many moms out there, doing both because they want to or have to.

Shocked at how much this piece resonated. It’s been overwhelming and the fact that I can do this, alone, without a network, or millions of dollars behind me, is a testament to Elon and X and a reminder of what I said in the piece: Focus on the work. The right people will find it.

This is one of my top five favorite pieces I've written for DW since I started here.

[Madeline Fry Schultz @madelineefry]

“For generations, the conversation about motherhood has been framed as a binary choice: boss babe or homemaker? Corner office or weekly playgroup? But in more recent years, those two worlds have collided,” @iamdeeda writes. Read her excellent profile on the work-from-home moms here: https://t.co/ft2QOic6Bw

[Madeline Fry Schultz @madelineefry]

Great timing for @iamdeeda's piece on this very subject. Running @realDailyWire tomorrow 👀

From @iamdeeda: "Regretting or questioning having kids, like polyamory, has become the latest norm-bucking trend. But like anything in life, parenthood doesn’t always, or even usually, offer instant gratification." https://t.co/1udLJLLwrW

The thing you have to remember about this woman and those like her is that she genuinely doesn’t know that anyone disagrees with her basic worldview. She doesn’t even see it as a worldview. It’s just the obvious truth.

Of course she knows abstractly that half the country voted for Trump. But those aren’t people. Those are cartoon characters. They’re either fat slobbering rednecks in klan hoods, or mustache-twirling robber barons manipulating the rednecks for profit. Her mental models of them are less complex than her mental model of a squirrel. Anyone she might actually sit down and talk to is, of course, a person, and therefore agrees with The Obvious Truth. It is inconceivable to her that anyone capable of being a pleasant dinner party guest would not share her basic beliefs and values.

She wasn’t trying to do a gotcha or extract a pledge of fealty. She was certain that Sydney Sweeney is a person, and therefore only got mixed up in the whole jeans/genes fiasco by mistake. She was trying to do Sydney a favor by giving her a chance to clarify that she is in fact a human being who agrees with the things all real people agree with.
