My kid just randomly mentioned that someone on her sports team was in the Ascension shooting and a very brave boy saved her and 6 other kids and I did not start sobbing immediately, but I did take a minute in the bathroom to sob. We are failing our children so completely.
My 7yo: Do you know your body has two stomachs? One for food and one for dessert. And it’s my FOOD stomach that’s full.

Trump is spending $60 million of our money for a fight on the White House lawn. Not for health care or food. For a fight. www.cnn.com/2026/06/10/p...

The TSA agent sneering at me after looking me over when I requested the ADA line. Lady, I look fine because I havent stood on concrete for 45m. I did that last weekend and I’m STILL SORE.
Being disabled sure is fun when Minneapolis has removed all the bus benches. 😑
My 7yo walks up to me while I’m watching the Wild game and says “Is this boy hockey or girl hockey?” So I say “Boy hockey.” And she shakes her head and says “Ew. I don’t watch boy hockey. Girl hockey is better." I didn't even teach her that, she just figured it out on her own. Seriously, an icon.
I’m a lifelong Islanders fan and that means I have long suffered and will continue my long suffering.
This is completely unhinged. Like... you think everyone is going to LEAVE???
Trump: "People get used to it. People live in Ukraine. You would think they wouldn't live in Ukraine, but they live in Ukraine. I don't know that I'd do that. They live in Lebanon."
Oscar winners going to In-n-Out after the awards is my favorite "everyone in LA knows about it, nobody else thinks it's real" tradition.

Man, I love that PTA invoked the all-timer year of 1975 in his speech. Go watch all five of those movies! One Battle will last. Sinners will last. Congratulations to all and to all a good night!
Ludwig Göransson is 41 and has THREE OSCARS. Is he the new John Williams? Or something? Damn.
I have never cried so much during the Oscars. Wooboy.
Frankenstein is really cleaning up the technical awards.
Aw poor Kieran Kulkin. He really wanted to hand the oscar to someone and Sean Penn won who does not accept awards so he just had to be like "he didn't want to be here"
My app glitched and restarted the red carpet which I watched for FOURTY MINUTES before I realized the time. So I've missed everything up until now. Grump.
I can't enjoy Adrian Brody because he excuses both Roman Polanski and Woody Allen and it's gross.
I need to see the Menswear Guy's take on Hudson William's suit. It's beautiful. Its' Yaga, but also... it seems too big?
Is anyone watching the Oscars I can gab with? I have things to say as always.
If you need me, I’m just avoiding the ongoing war over on tHReads by sharing fanfiction about the gay hockey romance. Nothing to see here.
Imagine someone steals your identity and instead of helping you, the government just closes all your bank accounts. When you ask them why they say well no one can steal from you if you have no money! That’s what JD Vance is doing to disability services in Minnesota. Punishing the victims of fraud.
Being a disability rights advocate in Minnesota right now is breathtakingly difficult.
My 5 and a half year old awoke in the middle of the night with terrible jaw pain. After some poking, I alerted him he was getting a new molar. “WHY DO I HAVE TO KEEP GROWING TEETH?!” he wailed. Why, indeed.
