I love this age. Everything is nuts, balls, butts, or poop-related.
I got R to cut down his use by calling popcorn chicken "chicken balls.".
R: "NENNA! OMG, YOU CAN'T SAY THAT!"
Me: "I thought saying balls was funny?"
R: 😳😳 "Not when you do it!"
Me: "I'll stop when you do, love."
🤣

My awesome kids took me to Texas Roadhouse for Mother's Day dinner tonight. Absolutely delicious food, but why is it always so loud there?
Between the music and the simple fact of many conversations happening at tables around us, I was reduced to mostly lip reading.

I am on the fence about AI in many ways (mostly its potential for misuse), but I think its use here on Spoutible has been great. Thread summaries are so helpful to deciding if I want to read/engage, and accuracy alerts are fantastic for determining the credibility of spouts containing mis/disinfo.

Christopher Bouzy @cbouzyAnd yet you see Accuracy Alerts working extremely well, and it will only get better from here. Humans can't fact-check thousands of posts a minute in real-time. So by the time the claim is fact-checked by a human, it will already be seen by thousands. 🤷🏾♂️09:09 AM - May 11, 2024

Ever had to stop traffic because a gaggle of goslings is running wild in the road after Mama Goose got clipped by a car?
Several drivers plus my son and I were eventually able to round them up and reunite with mom (she's okay!), thanks to a nice lady with a cardboard box.

GOOD! When driving a 1-ton or more death machine, keep your attention on the road!
Not that hands-free is much better (you're still dividing your attention), but at least you'll have two hands on the wheel when you hit something.

Having given up on it, and assuming I'd been scammed out of $35 (do NOT order crap you see on Reels even if it seems to be from the legit company), my items finally arrived today. 78 days after I ordered.
So far, they actually do seem to be worth the price and are excellent quality.

I celebrate all my birthdays and tell everyone my age -- because I'm still here!
When I was 20 and newly diagnosed with Addison's, I mistakenly believed I'd die around age 40. When I didn't, and found out I'd have a normal lifespan, it was like getting a brand new life.

Anton Brakhage @Anton_BrakhageSome people don't like celebrating birthdays because they're getting older.02:41 AM - May 08, 2024
I see it differently.
Scientifically, the odds against any of us existing are staggering.
So don't think of it as getting older. Think of it as defying the impossible for one more year.
THAT is something to celebrate.

Holy what the fuck?! I was already struggling with Stormy Daniels' testimony today, having experienced an SA under similar circumstances. A boss who pretended it was a work meeting and then seemed to think my attendance was proof of interest. "Luckily" (I say that with extreme sarcasm)...

My section of the Endless Mountains were looking quite lovely this morning. The green leaves really popped over the weekend, and with the rain and fog made me think of the Scottish Highlands to which they were once connected (in the days of Pangaea).

The only reason my very severe menopausal symptoms were treated (with HRT) was because my endocrinologist was the first doc to take me seriously, because of their impact on my Addison's. "This is absolutely not normal for any woman, but it could be deadly for you."

Tanya Feke, MD @tanyafekeIt's amazing how much of the #menopausal transition is glossed over in medical school. As a doctor going through this myself, I have the same questions as you.
