- sorry are we so divorced from basic etiquette that people don’t know what stationery is anymoreA relic of the past found in a random cabinet in the White House. Apparently @jrpsaki was soooooo important she had personalized note cards made to remind people how “important” she was.
Readers added contextPersonalized stationary has been commonplace in business and government for two centuries. thepaperandplanco.com/blogs/news/his… patternsdoodles.com/blogs/news/the… - I need someone to explain this argument that traditional schooling is specifically designed with girls in mind. girls weren’t even typically attending school when this model was createdOne of the greatest evils of my 90s childhood was the sedation and casual drugging of young boys for acting like boys in a school system built for little girls. And it’s only now that we’re finally allowed to ask questions. Decades too late.
- then why are you taking time off work to do something your wife normally does in addition to her workI’ve been a stay at home dad for 48 hours while my wife has been on a work trip and I gotta say I really don’t see what’s so hard about this. The dishes are done, the kids are fed, they make it to school, I’m lifting weights in the garage and playing with the 3 y.o. like…
- ACs are typically more energy efficient than heaters and yet no one ever insists everyone freeze in the winter
- that is a full coverage foundation on top of a billionaire’s worth of skin treatments
- if you can’t draft an email without AI you should be fired I’m so seriousI asked a colleague if he could be less condescending and pushy in the emails he sends me (which are usually pleas for my help with something) and he said they were all written by ChatGPT.

- that’s such a ridiculous thing to say at 19 she’s so funnyCRYING TEARS OF JOY
- lowkey I think the death of cable has meant kids aren’t just watching whatever movie is on anymore. they’re picking exactly what to consume at all times instead of just whatever is on AMC on a sundayI make a Matrix reference in one of my lectures and it's simply now a fact of life that not one single student in any of my classes will ever have seen the Matrix. Zero, every time, no exceptions. Obviously I'm old and washed but damn
- the idea that children should be with their mothers 24/7 is an incredibly modern one that seems to only be making everyone more anxiousThis week I retired my wife. So she can be full time Momma. She calls herself the “home executive” Don’t let feminism convince you this is a bad thing. Children are supposed to be with their mommas Incredibly grateful to be in a position to do this
- Replying to @offbeatorbitvicki is a nightmare but her openness about her grief for her mom was v touching
- no one who would want something like this would actually leave their house to go to it thoInstead of nightclubs I want a 24hr library with hot chocolate stations, a dessert bar, coffee machine, big comfy chairs and beanbags, blankets, dogs welcome, just people who want to spend the evening reading alone, together, peaceful, a cosy fire, plants, an indoor waterfall.
- Replying to @raeziIlayeah like I don’t have kids obvz so I’m not current on how much recess time kids get, etc but like that’s bad for all kids if it’s being reduced. girls are just as active as boys
