  It's never too early for a child to think about their future place in the workforce. A fifth grader is now required to fill out a Xello profile and take questionnaires about which field they wish to go into. It seems like something that would be helpful in Highschool. Right now it's just causing a lot of anxiety because the things she really wants to do aren't represented on the platform

  The hospital systems are using AI now. Primary and High schools are using AI. I can't speak on colleges because I don't go to any. People need to shift focus from micro-managing each other's perceived online behavior, and get straight to the societal institutions that we are trapped within. These systems have a choice.... Look at what they're choosing to do with us

  "Some Jews who might otherwise be sympathetic to her cause find some of her public statements — which, for instance, have drawn parallels between Israel’s government and the Nazis — troubling and offensive." They find the truth offensive. How many people know about the Belfour Declaration and the Haavara Agreement? https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2026/03/30/gaza-israel-un-criticize-us-sanction-00850477

  I have a critique and it's not easy to give it. In the US the LGBTQ+ and disability "communities" are ghosting vulnerable people with those identities and realities. If the situation is dire and an emergency, then WHY would a group(s) exclude the most vulnerable of its people??? I have been to online "local" spaces, offering up my services and asking for service only to be rampantly ignored. I see that other people are moving within these spaces, j...

  So, this is going to be awkward. I'm choking on acid reflux while trying to write this post, which has been inspired by the rant of a sixteen year old, that I just now witnessed, about 5 minutes ago. This is directed towards arrogant, self- absorbed artists that have a particular ideology about art and what it should be, who it should be for, economic value, etc. it's going to be vague, but, I trust that it will sink in where it needs to (and, maybe only my friends will end up...

  In honor of David Lynch, I shall be torturing my teens with Twin Peaks this weekend....

  The making of poetry and art and stories and music are those things that I know belong to the whole world of humans, not just a selection of publisher, agent, and gallery-nominated People.

  I think it's going to go in a destructive direction when selection for leadership roles in vital social infrastructure favors celebrity and a background of wealth over skill, competence, knowledge and a love for the people. The results aren't going to be anything that The People actually want or need, because the leadership will always be out of touch and distant from the majority. This is even dangerous and puts society in peril, leaving it to consider self governance, People-a...

  This is a video from five days after Bean arrived at our home. She has been with us for 2 years, so far. I hope she lives a long life. Robo hams can live as long as FOUR years, with proper care

  I'm popping on here to write a couple things about autistic people fulfilling domestic care roles--- not much credit is given, sadly. It's generally beyond mainstream American comprehension that an autistic parent is able and willing to put their children's needs before their own. Infact, many of us think of everyone else's needs to the point that we forget we ourselves are mortal and have bodies. Ok. That's it. Bye for now

  If you make turkey seasoned with chamomile, would the tea work synergistically with the tryptophan, and knock you out faster after eating it?

  Layla loves her toys. She's been a part of our family since mid July.

  Bean is an innocent little poof. Look at her sleeping. She's so perfect and smol. I wish I were at least 2 inches tall so I could snuggle up to her floofy-poof belly 🥺💓

  So, a teenager threw away a can of yellow fin tuna that had a whole four bites left. I told them to just spoon out what they wanted onto a plate so they'd only have what they need because other people want to eat it too. They insisted that they'd eat it all and that there's be none left. So after the finished, instead of leaving the can on the table for me to eat when they were done, they threw it in the garbage. I asked where the can was, they said they threw it away. I...

  So, I'm going to give an opinion first: Spinal surgery on a shark is animal cruelty. It seems as though they were doing this from an animal research angle, which, disturbs me about zoos and aquariums, because, at the end of the day, aren't all those captive animals "lab rats"? Sure, it's about conservation, preservation and all that. Anyways, I felt empathy for this poor shark. Spinal surgery generally doesn't work out for most humans either,...

  The 10 year old just told me that my face smells like "beef and orange peels"...

  All I'm gonna say is that mentioning Sigmund Freud at bedtime, in my home, around teenagers, is akin to evoking the name of Beatle Juice.
