@rensdyret @marthann85 You think being a SAHM isn't "working?" That's funny, because when a SAHM is temporarily or permanently unable to do her job--e.g., if she dies or becomes disabled--it costs at least $60,000 to hire people to replace the work she once did.

@marthann85 If you are a SAHM I think it is your duty to handle the calender for both of you. If you are also working the story is different.

I remember when my husband expressed disappointment that we regularly made it to my nephews birthday parties and sporting events and not his. I told him I take initiative to ask for schedules and find out when things were and didn’t have time to do it for a second family.

he's not wrong, men rarely exhibit this. this is what women are talking about when they say they're burned out and exhausted and want a husband with equal initiative to give a shit about their shared life.

Baron Harkonnen is hanging by a thread and not looking well.

@IlvesToomas Imagine being forbidden from mentioning the majority of the US population (women).
English
Can I mention them if "I'm carrying a diplomatic passport" ?

According to a new court filing, the Trump admin has a six-page list of banned words that Head Start locations are forbidden from using when describing their programs. Among censored words: "disability," "race," "women," "trauma," "Gulf of Mexico." (Short 🧵)

Anyone on here w/experience being defrauded by amazon's Italian branch? I've ordered & paid for stuff that was never delivered; tho promised refunds in multiple customer service chats with amazon reps, no refund ever materialized. Anyone else experienced this & got resolution?
English
Biggest mistake of 2025 (so far!):ordering from @StaplesStores.
All I needed was one (1) printer cartridge. Delivery promised in 2 days.
But no...now it's a whole saga: delivery date was 100% fake & they won't allow cancellation: now I'll have to waste a few days to get a refund.

@vanessahistory @atossaaraxia If you have a chance, could you send me a PDF of the article or a gift link? It's paywalled and Dartmouth doesn't subscribe.

@AlexNowrasteh @ZaidJilani The method you propose--"Try it, let's see what happens!"--is among the least efficient ways of gathering info re: alternatives.
Relevant data exist bc peer nations have privatized postal services. We can learn from them. US exceptionalism doesn't mean "reinvent every wheel."
English
@ZaidJilani A good question is: efficient compared to what? A good way to find out is to allow competition in letter carrying which is currently illegal. Let’s allow that competition to see how efficiently the service is provided.
English
@AlexNowrasteh @StrangeLand24 @ZaidJilani Efficient *for whom?*
Medicare is more efficient at delivering services from the perspective of patients: lowest costs (incl transaction costs) for care.
It's NOT more efficient at extracting profits for middlemen.
Most Americans want the former, not the latter.
English
@StrangeLand24 @ZaidJilani That’s not what economic efficiency means.
