One thing we accidentally learned is that never introducing screens (or having them exist strictly in special circumstances, like long haul flights) basically solves this. Every time screen time creeps in, like when one of the kids is sick, it’s always a bit of a fight to dial back down. I can’t imagine trying to cut back once it’s a big part of their lives. It seems like never starting down the path and adding friction everywhere (for us this means not having a TV, just a difficult to use projector with no screen) is the move. An huge benefit is that the kids join us out at dinner all the time and they can just chill / draw / talk with us without much issue (obviously sometimes they’re fidgety etc but it’s mostly totally fine).

tremendous jumps in average gas prices, these are the top 10 states seeing average prices surge the most, all of them over 30c/gal higher from a week ago

The 76ers win Game 7, become the 14th team to win a series after trailing 3-1 and advance to the Eastern Conference Semifinals for the first time since 2023! They will take on the Knicks in Round 2.

Everything is working so well right now. People hate the economics of healthcare. They are terrified they won’t be able to afford what they need and they already can’t afford their deductibles. Employers have to pay 30k a year and it impacts their hiring and firing decisions. The big vertically integrated companies game MLR, game managed Medicaid. Under pay, over charge , year apart independent pharmacies and physicians It’s the furthest thing from an efficient market. And you think breaking them up would be worse ? How could it possibly get worse
