HAPPY BIRTHDAY @robins36.bsky.social WE WON A PLAYOFF GAME!!!!!

I could barely push the door open this morning when letting the walkers into my school.

Kiddo is walking around singing the chorus to Once In a Lifetime. Yep, he's our kid.

Pardon my interruption. Look at my dog!

That is all.

Kid's got good taste!

This is a dream come true. I am having the time of my life! Only wedding better than this was my own.

Somehow I had never seen Practical Magic, so I watched it for the first time this morning. Did not disappoint.

For example, my child decided to lick my arm while hugging me at bedtime. Just because, I suppose. At least I got a quick, "sorry," when I voiced my displeasure.

Three-year-old: Every impulsive thought you've had bundled in adorable (yet perpetually sticky) packaging.

Visited my new school, moved into my office, and met my colleagues today. I have two huge windows that overlook a park! I can bring plants into work again this year!

Congratulations! Welcome to the club!

Elon on Twitter says: AI is obviously gonna one-shot the human limbic system. That said, I predict – counter-intuitively – that it will *increase* the birth rate! Mark my words. Also, we’re gonna program it that way.

Everyone who runs an LLM loves that they get to be the architect of entire human realities, but they love it secretly because they know how dystopian it is.

Except Elon, he loves it loudly because his audience is super into how dystopian it is.

Dolly Parton has sent my daughter a new book every month for years as she does for thousands of children. She help fund the development of the Covid vaccine. She’s not a billionaire. I think as non wealthy people it’s hard to even imagine how much billionaires *could* be doing with their money.

I am 99% of these things, including also being an MSW (School social worker)!

Also if you are looking for something that might spark reading interest and haven't read Dungeon Crawler Carl, I highly recommend it. Based on your videos I've watched I think you would enjoy it!

Seriously! In college and also working I almost didn't read at all for years. It comes in waves. The reading will likely come back around eventually! I try not to beat myself up too much when I can't get myself to do things because my brain says nope no matter how hard I try.

I would also like to give a shout out to my ADHD hyper focus skill lol

Thanks! I'm a fairly quick reader and am pretty good at having to set a book down intermittently while parenting. Often I'll sit on the floor with my son while he plays and read my book to spend time with him. Also sometimes I just don't sleep enough haha

Nothing like ugly sobbing to the end of a book trilogy at 12:30am.

As of yesterday, I have officially reached my 50 book reading goal of the year! Maybe I can make it to 80!

You know you've been reading a lot of ebooks when you, by muscle memory, accidentally tap the page of a physical book to turn the page.

Roses are red
Violets are blue

ANYWAY, did you know there's an extension you can put on Chrome that will connect with your local library system and when you go look at a book, say on AMZ, it will tell you if that book exists in the library system and if it's available?

It's literally called Library Extension.

Just got bit HARD on the arm by a feral goblin masquerading as my toddler.

You know you're deep into toddler parenthood when one of your monthly highlights is that your 2.5yo is officially fully potty-trained.

I would be more than happy to run a few sessions for them and help someone learn to DM!

Scene from The Princess Bride where Vizzinni says "You're trying to kidnap what I've rightfully stolen"

OpenAI right now

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.
