It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity.

Yup.

@jowrotethis I wish I had a 'cool' answer to this, but I had a weird obsession with Disney's The Three Musketeers when I was a kid, and I loved him as Cardinal Richelieu. That's the performance that got me to know and love Tim Curry.

This week's new pregnancy experience is simultaneous heartburn and hunger pangs. It's a weird sensation. 22 down, 18-ish to go. I'll say this: pregnancy is not boring.

"Especially these last two years or so, burnout has felt like more of a staple of the human condition as opposed to a rare or periodic phenomenon." Freelancers, sign up for Kat's newsletter if you haven't already. Such good stuff here. katboogaard.com/manage-freelan…

"That new client or project (not to mention paycheck) is beyond tempting, so you convince yourself that you can fit just one more thing on your already-stuffed plate. You do that a few more times and you find yourself completely spread thin." Get out of my head @kat_boogaard

Props to the various red carpet hosts doing their best, but asking random fans who they're rooting for tonight rather than showing actual Oscar nominees winning inside the theater is... not great TV.

Seriously, this is ridiculously helpful and I wish I'd been able to read it 10 years ago when I was churning out daily 1000-word blog posts for $30 a pop. We all start somewhere, but you don't have to stay there.

Being pregnant is so trippy. I'm just sitting here at my desk, typing away at my little blog post, and then I get a literal gut punch from the tiny person growing inside me. And every time, it reminds me that my entire life is about to be irrevocably changed. Trippy.

Please tell me other people are compelled to brush their teeth before important Zoom meetings, and it's not just me.
