I have missed many flights due to my own fault but today was not one of them. Got to JFK T5 priority line 74 minutes before 6:59am domestic flight. Probably the earliest I’ve ever got to the airport because people said “there’s a line” and I said “ok I’ll get there early.” Priority line was two hours wait. So now I am … early … for the next flight … at 10.
@Uber I had excellent service on a delivery last night. (The only tech that seemed to work after a long day of flight delays.) But I never got a prompt to tip. Is there a way to fix this a day later?? I was able to rate the driver but not tip. 😭
@DeeLaSheeArt One in the hallway to monitor kids sneaking out of their rooms. Already caught one sneaking up a full container of ice cream into their room after midnight. Other is in the office to monitor where the kids are supposed to leave their devices.
I’ve never understood how we got to the point of putting cameras inside the home. Why are there cameras in your living room and bedroom? Especially your children’s bedrooms?
yesterday, I learned that 1950s wives were expected to help their husbands with school. my grandma Shirley kept track of my grandpa's law school assignments and exam dates; typed and corrected his papers; organized his notes; and made study guides for exams. she deserved a JD too

by Amanda Gorman
They say she is no more,
That there her absence roars,
Blood-blown like a rose.
Iced wheels flinched & froze.
Now, bare riot of candles,
Dark fury of flowers,
Pure howling of hymns.
If for us she arose,
Somewhere, in the pitched deep of our grief,
Crouches our power,
The howl where we begin,
Straining upon the edge of the crooked crater
Of the worst of what we’ve been.
Change is only possible,
& all the greater,
When the labour
& bitter anger of our neighbors
Is moved by the love
& better angels of our nature.
What they call death & void,
We know is breath & voice;
In the end, gorgeously,
Endures our enormity.
You could believe departed to be the dawn
When the blank night has so long stood.
But our bright-fled angels will never be fully gone,
When they forever are so fiercely Good.
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but you can download custom bingo apps and make boards for your family gatherings. Thanksgiving was great. Only invite the cool people to the app. My mom kept asking what we were playing. 😈
@hollowearthterf The book Fair Play talks about this. We’re raising our kids to be good partners and teaching them that completing a task means 1) Recognizing it needs to be done, 2) Making a plan, and 3) Executing the plan. If they only do 3 (when we have to nag them), it doesn’t count.
