@alyssaleann Omg same. To this day I get the ick when I see my wedding photos because the dress is so not me. I recently bought a new one to celebrate my 10th anniversary in and I feel *so* much better in it.

@CartoonsHateHer Elyse Myers talked about waiting to do things until her anxiety at it went away, eventually realizing it won't and to just "do it scared". Changed my life. I got my driver's licence, addressed health issues. When my anxiety tells me no I still tell myself to just do it scared

My brother telling me that every thought I have is stupid and that I think my fears are reasonable but I am in fact "vacationing in crazyland most of the year." For 2 months I just ignored my OCD based on this and it was awesome lol.

GIRLS WHO DONT GATEKEEP: what's something that dramatically improved your mental health??? i dont care how unhinged it may sound

@alyssaleann My second clearly loved when I'd eat, especially rich foods, and when she was a baby all she wanted to do was nurse and sleep. She's still my little gourmand at 5 years old!

@alyssaleann @michelleakin Would that miso carrot and beet side be a good dish to expand a beet critics horizons? I love beets but the husband needs convincing.

@ErikN_NJEdition @CartoonsHateHer The whiplash when she said family style and 8 dishes per person. I was like, that's the opposite of family style?! That restaurant is hosing people
English
@CartoonsHateHer What you describe in the article is tapas, not family style. Family style is Buca di Beppo.
I am still scarred from my mom wanting "a sip" when I got soda. No, I got this can because I wanted 12 oz of soda, not 11. Now I can either drown myself in 23oz or be unsatisfied.

Today, a FREE article on how my husband believes food at restaurants is communal and I am standing outside my culinary McMansion with a taser. Link in replies.

@CartoonsHateHer My husband and I are food socialists I guess? We try to coordinate if there are dishes we both happen to want, but it's always optional, and when we share it's usually a small portion, not an equal serving. The idea he couldn't get what he wanted because I don't like it is 💀

@emilykmay Very left but I essentially don't tweet so your mileage may be wasted on me. I do have an autistic nonverbal 6 year old though so I always connect with your perspective so well 💜

@MythicalChef fried chicken tenders cut up, pasta, topped with Chihuahua cheese and broiled until brown n melty, topped with classico. Struggle chicken Parm 🔥

@mopuchama @emilykmay The user found a still alive goldfish in their yard and put it in a bowl they had on hand. Got massive amounts of hate and accusations of animal abuse for not putting the fish in a larger tank more suitable for a goldfish
English
@emilykmay “Talked to my husband in the garden” OK that’s sweet. “gave chili to a neighbor” mmm, my kind of neighbor! “Found a goldfish in my front yard” Wait, what?! 😮 You mean, like a cracker, right? Right?! Oh no…

@panda_gongjunim All three of my kids were born a stones throw from midnight and two of them I was laboring for 30+ hours. By the third I'd learned my lesson and my hospital bag was packed with essentially a picnics worth of food and I enjoyed my 2am sandwich so much 😂😭

@PhillyD You get to say you're beating Trump in the polls. DeFranco 2028!

wtf lol didn’t expect to see myself in a Pew Research poll this morning.
They must have exclusively polled my friends and family 😅💪🏼

@EliMcCann Never wake a sleeping baby was the worst advice. It took my oldest months to sleep more than an hour at night because his nights were permanently mixed up from how long he'd nap during the day. Once I started capping naps he did much better.

What is the best or worst parenting advice anyone has ever given you?

@PhillyD 🎶Welcome to the Philip DeFranco Show, the he show that is the best show, that's not really a show, just me talking to the camera for 3 to 4 minutes... Yeah.... Yeah...🎶
English
I released a 16 minute show in December and the comments were like WTF IS THIS TINY ASS BULLSHIT SHOW, PHIL?!?!
Granted we average 28 minute shows now, and yesterday’s was a 47 minute monster but it’s important to remember it started as 3-5 minutes and then 9 minutes for years😅
Christian Miller@thecmac356
@PhillyD Member when Phil used to release sub-10 minute shows?

@clhubes 1st and 3rd I could tell when they were 1. Youngest is 15 months and is already moving toys I place in his left hand to his right to play. My second is almost 4 and still switches things back and forth. I *think* she's using the right more but it hasn't been set in stone yet!

@clhubes Me to 3 year old: it's lunch time!
Her: nooo I want a snack
Me: a lunch is kind of just a very big snack
Her: I don't waaaant iiiiiit I want a snack!

@CartoonsHateHer Also 35 and just got my license last July! Combination of superb public transportation in my previous city and ✨ anxiety✨

I’m 35 and my dad doesn’t come with me to the car place because I don’t even know how to drive

What is wrong with these parents? Are they just doing this because they’re lonely and it’s the only way their kids will talk to them? Stop being pathetic.
English
@clhubes I inadvertently did this and, not so shockingly, they both have typical kid behavior either way. Tablet kid isn't a misbehaved monster and analog kid isn't an angel coloring quietly without a peep. They both behave like little kids 🤷
English
@clhubes Same vibe as those awful "parent ate all the Halloween candy" videos. I hate pranks on non-consenting parties in general, but especially with a little kid who is relying on you for safety, emotional guidance, and social cues.
