#Costco allows you to renew your membership with #Mastercard, but doesn’t accept it for purchases in the store. It was really nice to learn this at checkout with my children experiencing sensory overload from the fucking zombie and skeleton statues in July

Kumail Nanjiani@kumail.bsky.social · 8mo agoI can finally announce: I am in the next season (series) of Taskmaster! My favorite tv show! I’ve seen every season & some multiple times! Thrilled to be with this group of hilarious sweeties. Amy Gledhill Joanna Page Armando Iannucci Joel Dommett And me!
If this doesn't motivate you to vote in the Midterms, nothing will.
Both kids have either 1st molars or 2nd molars erupting. I’ve been sleeping between their beds on a foam mattress for the last 2 weeks. I know this won’t last forever, but this foam mattress is seriously fucking with my mental health
I’m trying to get a #Mew in #PokemonGo for my daughter. We’re having difficulty with the mission to get one. Does anyone have one they don’t mind trading? I know it’s a big ask. 😬 My Trainer Code is 995109498266!
this is why I think the admin spending all week yelling about a “hate America” rally was stupid anyone who tunes in gets to see funny signs, joyful crowds and shit like “an enormous constitution being carried to the White House” this is a crowd that loves America and wants it to be better

A great article from Rachel, who really understands the heart and soul of Dad’s work.
Has Kemi Badenoch actually read Terry Pratchett?
She claims he’s her favourite author, but his books have a few lessons for her

Rachel Cunliffe@rmcunliffe.bsky.social · 11mo agoAnyway, in case you missed it, some wondering from me about whether Kemi Badenoch has ever actually read Terry Pratchett www.newstatesman.com/politics/uk-...
Dad’s at the playground are acting like they’re on a military operation that they’re very uncomfortable with
My kids met another kid whose parents I know. The parents don’t remember me, so I’m saved from reminiscing and talking about mutual friends.
My wife and I rarely talks about politics and her job, because our time is so precious after the kids go down. When we do it is a lovely commiseration over the shit in the world. It lasts maybe 10 minutes and then it’s time for #GreatNorth, #Taskmaster, or #StarTrek
One of the last things I ever hear in this world will be the loop playing in my head of the intro screen music from the DVD. WELCOME EVERYBODY TO THE BRAK SHOW DEE VEE DEEEEEEEEEEE
Honestly everybody do me a favor and look at the Internet tonight and live your life in such a way that THIS won’t be the reaction when you go.
I let out an uncontrollable sigh every time one of my kids asks for something.
I just finished the Place of Tides by @herdyshepherd.bsky.social James Rebanks. A beautiful read! I got a glimpse of the life of a “duck woman” and how remarkable people are just people.
At the library with my kids today. I left my library job nearly 9 years ago and guess I still give off library person vibes. A toddler keeps bringing me books to assess 😍

Whilst driving, a car honked near us. From the backseat: “This episode is called Honkeys” #parenting #kidssaythedarndestthings
My kids are getting over a cold. I have surgery in a week. Now I must eat cheesecake
A trailer with a bit of a mystery… 😱 I hope🤞🏻this means more podcast goodness with #davidtennant and @georgiatennant.bsky.social I found this podcast during the first lockdown and it was lovely to listen in on a quiet bit of conversation.
It’s Sunday, so more dads at playgrounds. Which means I avoid the playgrounds that attract the ultra “masculine” ones who; scream at their kids, wear athletic shorts in the coldest weather, and are incapable of any social engagement whatsoever
Can I make a list of people that I follow, so I can mute and unmute them? I get fatigued by certain topics and I would like a simple way to tune it out without losing everthing
This is the week I plow through all the seasonal Trader Joe’s cookie mixes that need using. Perfect week for this to be happening
I haven’t had coffee in nearly a month. Not because I’m trying to be the all seeing and all knowing space baby at the center of the universe. Ma hernia damn blammit! So now I drink tea, sew flouncy fleece skirts for the kiddos, and eat hot soup. I just need some hard candy and I’m in grandma town.
