    "If you want to feel better about your parenting, my 14-year-old asked if she could be a six-pack of beer with her friends for Halloween." —@ksujulie

    As the old saying goes, "If you're not a punk at 20, you have no heart; if your Spotify playlist doesn't include the Curious George theme song at 40, you have no kids."

    Me, who once heavily criticized punk bands for sounding too "pop": the Curious George theme goes pretty hard actually

    When they ask you how you balance parenting and writing they probably think: comforting a sick child vs furiously writing an opus - when it’s more like frantically trying to sign your kid up for the afterschool Pokémon club vs staring into the void and checking social media

    My biggest soccer mom pet peeve is when parents scream at their kids from the sidelines to get to a different position than where their coach put them. So I wanna give a trophy to the 9yo that just turned from the middle of the field & screamed I’M DEFENSE to her yelling dad. 💥
