Parents of young kids are not ok

Signal made Instagram ads that shows users how much Facebook knew about them. Facebook banned them. “Being transparent about how ads use data is enough to get banned; in Facebook’s world, the only acceptable usage is to hide what you’re doing.” signal.org/blog/the-insta…

Five year old today, regarding the "race to bathtime" - You *cheated* dada! Minus ten points for Hufflepuff. #HarryPotterKids

The goal of sharing ideas isn't for everyone to agree with you. It’s for some to learn from you—and for you to learn from them. It’s better to risk social disapproval than to sacrifice self-respect. Popularity is how many likes you collect. Impact is how many lives you enrich.

This is the story of what followed—and what I learned about love, grief, and the stories we all need. 8/8 theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…

“Stay angry, little Meg,” Mrs Whatsit whispered. “You will need all your anger now.” A Wrinkle in Time

14 yrs ago, I was walking through campus w/Natasha Korgaonkar, overwhelmed by 1L classes. Prof. Eben Moglen overheard our convo and interrupted to tell us that 1/2 of being a lawyer is just understanding how to use the vernacular. I think about that often. (Learning abt patent law)

Had a colleague tell me, “To be clear, I’m not depressed. I’m reacting appropriately to the world around me”. Oof, felt that.

My five year old just described an elaborate Saturday morning project for us to do together, and ended with "I'll supervise" 😂

As someone who struggles with people pleasing behaviors, I am often so concerned with how likeable I’ll be and how I can try to get others to like me that I forget to consider if I even like them or want them to be a part of my life.

Wrote about adult sleep the way parenting blogs write about baby sleep xo

Social media technology- the way we scroll and stare and engage with it has made us less intelligent. The way it’s designed does things to your brain. I feel like people are zombies from it. Please take long breaks from it. Consume less media. Go close your eyes and daydream.

A culture of rapid responding prizes shallow reactions over deep reflection. We shouldn't mistake promptness for politeness. If a message isn't urgent, it's not rude to take a week to reply. It's better to be slow and thoughtful than fast and careless. nytimes.com/2023/04/13/opi…
