Once, a prominent media reporter, responding to reports of similar behavior by a prominent man in media, said, "So he's an asshole. I don't know how that's a story." It's never a story when it's a bad male boss. It's always a story when it's a woman. washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/…

IKEA shelving unit. We couldn’t find the damn instructions!! If you ever want to get closer to your partner or immediately separate try this activity. It could really go either way. We lucked out. #ikea #oyvey #marriage #cantfindinstructions #survivingikea


My kid and I waited in line outside (40 degrees) on a weekday for two hours to get his second shot. One guy in a tent giving shots/refilling syringes. This was the best place for our few towns to get pediatric vax. Why are we still so bad at this? #CovidVaccine #Connecticut

The only thing further I’ll say about the #MeghanOnNPR interview is that it was truly astounding the amount of trolling, misinformation and bullying that showed up in some press and my feed. Some people even wrote in to say they’d boycott the show. Folks, please get perspective.

We had a house fire. Daddy knew we all wouldn't make it. He kissed me then push me out the 2nd story window to safety. He went to get mommy. Realizing the fire had them he laid on top of her to protect her. Mommy survived. Father's Day is my celebration of a hero #FathersDay

So they are really going to rehab #jeffreytoobin? Why? That is not a rhetorical question. I really don’t get it. Is his opinion THAT important? (That last q was rhetorical) 🤔
