I just went to super fancy private rich kids Christian nationalist school, there was only you 1) keep up with the work load or 2) you prepare to go to hell.

Not that I've ever seen evidence for, but skin and fascial laxity are, for me.

Not dense here, plus being over 40, having ehlers danlos, and breastfeeding my kids for four straight years, my mammos make me think of silly putty.

Yeah it's one of this district's highest strengths, I doubt it's very different administratively.

I started the convo about it with, "Y'know how [ASD Dxed friend] has tools to help be successful at school without disrupting class (headphones/fidgets/breaks)? And you finish work fastest and you have tools to not disrupt (doodling on the back/reading ahead)? Tag gives support for fast learners."

7 got identified for TAG, and I'm too much of a burnt out gifted kid who should've been diagnosed to not be stressed out about how this plays out.

Meanwhile, my kids think they're HILARIOUS for saying they "go to night school" now.

My friend always wraps an extra bungee cable with hook ends around the handlebars in this trying time.

You mean my tolerance level for EVERYTHING is reduced? Who could have predicted my fuse would be this short?!

7 woke me up at 530, which used to be 430, and I need to get both up at 630, because that's our school get up time, and I can't get back to sleep so I'm now going to be two hours' sleep deficient instead of just one. Body, forgive my caffeine intake today.

And, yall, pay close attention to the shit Republicans are pulling in Dallas. You can bet Texas is a test for midterms.

You shouldnโ€™t be celebrating when hundreds of Texans are getting disenfranchised by Ken Paxton

It's so creepy!! I love them. It was in our backyard tree maybe three years ago at night and I'd talk back to it. "I'm too descended from Appalachians to tell a bird my full government name, you can ask me who all day."

I have straight up pulled over and thrown on my flashers in my neighborhood for the barred owl that roosts near our house. Great egrets with their dandelion crowns during meeting season are just absolutely my favorite Texas bird. My actual favorite bird is the Victoria Crowned Pigeon. I'm so old.
