My 13yo doesn’t remember starting the stopwatch on his phone. But he just opened it, and this so where it’s currently at. 😳😂

Is the night before the first day of 8th grade the BEST time or the WORST time to introduce the 13yo to Buffy the Vampire Slayer?

I’m thrilled Issue 1 was defeated in Ohio, but the fact that the AP described the counties surrounding *Cincinnati* as “Democrat leaning” has me cackling.
Columbus, Cleveland, Toledo, Dayton: Democrat leaning.
Cincinnati? HAHAHAHAHA! 😂🙄

Is there a German word for “a social media post by an ex that makes you remember why you dumped them 30 years ago to date the man you would go on to marry & divorce”? Because there should be. 😂

I remember being so relieved when I first moved to Canada that my airport code at least included the first letter of my city’s name so I had a bit of a pneumonic edge. Because otherwise…WTF Canada?😂

TIL that some Canadians (including my mortgage broker) call homeowners’ insurance “fire insurance.” I’ve lived in this country for 15 yrs & I grew up regularly crossing the border since we were just across the Detroit River, and yet Canadian vocabulary continues to trip me up. Language is amazing.

Watching a documentary with scenes in Detroit. The main narrator is waxing poetic about how sad Detroit is and how he hopes it can have a Renaissance™️🙄. Behind him John K King Books is prominently framed. Because everyone knows that’s a symbol of Detroit’s ruin. 🤦

I loved the explosion of pink across all my Fluevog groups this weekend. But that was never my thing. Fortunately, Voggers have near infinite options. I called my theatre ensemble for today “Gen X Goth Girls Love Barbie Too.” #FluevogLove

TFW you love the painting your kid made at art camp, but you’re afraid to share it with other adults the family because you have no faith in their ability to appreciate his macabre sense of humour. 💜

Black Jack from The Owl House. Inside it says, “Dad said I should draw a bird, so I drew the only bird you were ever sad to see die in a show.” I laughed really hard, and he hugged me and whispered, “I don’t think he knows you very well.”

I just had the most lovely 90 minute phone call with my 87yo mom. She rarely talks to me that long—she has trouble following conversations on the phone. Turns out, if I only talk about (1) her youngest grandchild* & (2) people we knew before 1993, she’s good!

I read this gut-wrenchingly brilliant piece this morning. Tonight, inspired by a conversation with one of my students, I’m researching Lion. So the number of mom tears I’m going to shed by the end of the day is somewhere between 10 trillion and infinity, approximately.

Since I’ll never afford tickets to see Brandon Victor Dixon play Aaron Burr on Broadway, I just revel in watching him play Judas once a year on DVD.

Ironically, one of Emily Yoffe’s most consistent positions when she was Prudie was that children never have an obligation to forgive—or even to maintain relationships with—their cruel and abusive parents.

24+ hours later, and I'm still spontaneously bursting into laughter every time I remember Piers Morgan's whiny tweet about Biden not attending the coronation.

I gave the last lecture of my Popular Hinduism course today on Vedic Astrology, because that’s always students’ favourite, so why not go out on a high? At one point I caught myself saying, “it’s not like when you open the paper and flip to the last page to read the horoscopes.”

And on this note: I love to listen to Bonnie Raitt’s perfect recording of “Guilty” and remind myself that that song was written by the same man who wrote “You’ve Got a Friend in Me” for Toy Story.
