I forgot to buy an Advent calendar, so my 13-year-old has decided to mark each day with a dramatic reading of a Minion meme.

My dog’s been standing at attention by her food bowl for the last 10 min. Who has the heart to remind her dinner’s not til 4?

Kindergartener, holding up a squishy pink circle from the merch table at the school book fair: What is this?
Me: That’s a mousepad. Do you know what it’s for?
K: Hmmm…
Me: You’ve probably never—
K: Oh! It’s a bed for a mouse!

We’re visiting my mom for Thanksgiving, so she’s doing lots of special things to prepare for our trip, like sending me a link to the results of her google search “is it wrong to call someone strong-willed.”

I'm tired of being the bigger person. Just once, I want to be the smaller person, tiny enough to be carried around in someone's pocket, shouting petty retorts.

Since nothing matters anymore and there are no rules, let’s knock out Thanksgiving this week, do Christmas next week, then have six beautiful weeks of that full goblin mode space between Xmas and new years where time doesn’t exist and sweatpants are required dress

Showed a class of 4th graders how to find the price on a book (preparing for book fair season). Told them that it was the U.S. price unless the Blue Jays win the World Series, because then we’d have to use Canadian dollars. A surprising number seemed prepared to accept new overlords from the North.

I cannot get over how absolutely ludicrous they look harassing people doing laundry. Somehow I didn't realize fascism would look so fucking stupid
Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino personally joins ICE raid at Chicago laundromat—owner locks him out and refuses entry.
"When we saw agents we immediately locked the doors," supervisor said.
"No one was committing a crime. We were just doing laundry... It’s racial profiling.It’s a numbers game."

Still doesn’t seem real that Jeff Kinney, author of the perennially most popular book series in my school library (and in my home)—Diary of a Wimpy Kid—came to MY SCHOOL yesterday! It was the experience of a lifetime for our students. Here we are trying to hear over the screams of his adoring fans.

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.
