@clhubes I choose to interpret this advice as a call for the adults, too, to subsist primarily on pasta and chicken fingers 🤷‍♀️

@CSMFHT I was gifted a copy of D’Aulaires for my 5th birthday and I turned out ok

To let you further know the Supreme Court is on some bullshit, they said it’s totally fine for military academies to consider race in admissions. Now why is that? https://t.co/uiF9sScIty

“Mommy, you should take some medicine so you can be happy” - my brutally honest 2.5 year old

@margosteines @clhubes This is so weird to me - I had an emergency induction and went into delivery aware there was an above-average chance of it ending in C-section, but my OB said it was fine to eat. 18 hours, 3 sandwiches and a forceps delivery later, I DID throw up a bunch right afterwards but 🤷‍♀️

@clhubes Weirdly I actually read a TON when my daughter was a newborn - downloaded books on my phone and read them while endlessly nursing. Housework? Not so much.

Shazam but for the songs my 2 year old comes home from daycare singing

Was “breakfast is the most important meal of the day” just a mantra made up to make parents feel better about the fact that toddlers categorically do not eat dinner

[Liz Rocchi @LizRocchi]

@clhubes Ok but EVERYONE is annoying in public, toddlers are at least cute and funny too.

Between this and the Abercrombie resurgence, 2003 Liz is having a moment

Classic "Boston" style Birkenstocks have become a rare commodity thanks to rising popularity on TikTok, with some pairs going for more than $300. They're nearly impossible to find in stores, and resellers are having a field day. https://t.co/zRM8tzg2DZ

@iverbon22 @MikePMoffatt Very few. A commute that was untenable on a daily basis may now be tolerable once a week, especially if you can swap childcare duties with a spouse. But that’s still probably a max 2ish hr commute. And cost isn’t the only factor affecting where people choose to live!

HOV lane but for parents trying to get home for naptime before their toddler falls asleep in the car

@anne_theriault Trying local chip flavours is quite legitimately one of the most fun things about travelling!

Line 2 Bloor-Danforth: No service between St George and Broadview due to a Raccoon on the tracks.

@JaBogen If it’s an option for you, I would consider shifting their whole schedule earlier so they go to bed earlier. It is one million times easier to entertain kids in the early morning! My toddler is a delight at 6:30 am and a terror at 6:30 pm.

@CrystalSoupComx @gwenckatz Came to the comments looking for fellow traumatized Watership Down viewers

[Liz Rocchi @LizRocchi]

@anne_theriault Oh wow, pretty sure I know the camp you refer to (based on both this and the UFO) and am amazed that dead ants has been going on for AT LEAST 20 years (and now I should probably go jump in a lake for even typing it)

[Liz Rocchi @LizRocchi]

@DatLe @clhubes Yes. It does. It sucks.

@downwithlcc Fallible narrator, when done well, is AMAZING. Atonement, Barney’s Version, We Have Always Lived in the Castle…

@wil_da_beast630 @tashakaminsky You can be a gay man and also be a parent, uncle, elementary teacher, daycare worker, doctor, nurse, or any number of other personal or professional roles that involve close contact with children… this is not a difficult concept?!
