Teach empathy and diversity by researching a foreign country with your kids. Talk about how different life is for other people, especially in developing countries. Have them write about what they've learned and what inspired them. Critical thinking in action!

Yes, Starbucks nailed it again. Please note that I spelled my name in alpha-charlie-tango format. Barista: What name should I put on the drink? Me: Priya (Starbucks is the only place I shorten my name). P as in Peter, R as in Romeo, I as in India, Y as in Yankee, A as in alpha.

I feel fortunate and grateful to have been able to take a couple of days off and view this. Totally worth the -50F temps. The moon, the night sky and the northern lights.

Can we train humans to not litter or better yet train them to develop empathy? This is appalling, unethical and harmful for the birds and the climate in general. I can’t believe that this has gotten as far as building this machine and running a pilot project.

Caramel turned one this week. Also he is here to interrupt your feed to cheer you up.

Among the things that are exciting to me, nerding out on trigonometry- sine, cos, tan angles with my middle schooler and rediscovering the magic in mathematics is kinda one of the best things.

Ugh, the losing of an hour is terrible. It’s gonna be fun waking up the kids for school tomorrow.

Because we aren't fucking incubators.

Ugh! 😢😢😢

My heart’s bleeding. The news out of Texas is gut wrenching! What will it take to stop this?!

Breakfast conversations & school drop off was hard this morning. At the bus stop as I wouldn’t stop hugging my second grader he told me - it’s okay. I’ll be safe. Kids shouldn’t have to say that to their parents neither should parents have to live in fear of gunfire at a school.

These are all 4th graders - 10 year olds. We killed them.
