I’d love for a terrifyingly serious, skilled to the level of Pulitzer-winning finance or war correspondent, journalist to take this job & start breaking obnoxiously huge stories on the summering elite from their Old Money Coastal/Cape Cod Refined Maritime furnished living room.

Gentle parenting isn't just about validating emotions--it's also about never providing any rewards or punishments, any relying solely on "natural consequences." But this often fails with spirited kids, and gentle parenting experts won't tell you what to do next. Link in replies.

Thank you @EODHappyCaptain. It’s okay to take a knee and it’s okay to ask for help. I did. We need to take care of America’s sons and daughters who raised their right hands to defend this nation.

@SECNAV gave an amazing speech last night at the EOD Memorial Ball. Zero politics. Instead, he focused on the suicide rate in the EOD ranks, which is the highest in the military. He spoke about mental health. He spoke about traumatic brain injury. He spoke about the strength that is required to get evaluated for blast exposure. His speech landed with the EOD community because he talked about something that isn’t spoken about enough…taking care of yourself.

I’m begging the Navy’s senior officers, with tears in my eyes… You all look silly. If you are not part of the crew of an aircraft, please don’t wear a flight suit. If your job is in a climate controlled office building… Wear a service uniform. This isn’t hard, you guys.

Not a single aviator in the photo. But yes, please tell us how aviators have destroyed surface readiness.

We are paying attention. The Supreme Court just ruled those very districts racially discriminatory and the Governor is moving to end the racism forced on the state by a Democrat judge.
Marc E. Elias@marceelias

How is this being treated as normal? A Republican governor is declaring a state of emergency to cancel an ongoing election for Congress. If you think this is ends with redistricting, you are not paying attention.

As if Congress wasn’t already a zoo: a bunch of animals were in Rayburn House office building today at an Association of Zoos and Aquariums event. This armadillo named Trooper had a bunch of energy from the three-hour nap he took on the car ride here from the Philadelphia Zoo.
