Happy New Year, Parents! I hope all parents reading this have had a great 2023 so far. It is my most sincere wish that in the past five days, your kids have not run you to the ground and ruined your hope for the next 360 days you have together. I know this wish is a tad unrealistic, but a girl can dream! The good thing about this time of the year is that kids are finally returning to school. The two weeks of holiday preparation, constant cleaning, and providing around-the-clock entertainment fo…

Time to actualize

Greetings, internet explorers and post-appreciators. If you've been avoiding Twitter thanks to Elon Musk , or have never composed a short and sweet tweet simply because you didn't want to, we don't blame you. The ol' bird app can definitely be intimidating. It can also be downright unpleasant if you say the wrong thing or enter the wrong area of the website. With that said, we do enjoy indulging in the witticisms of the people who do the app justice with their wit, wisdom, or even endearing stu…

It seems like everyone and their mom is in therapy these day s, and when you think about how terrible everything has felt for the past few years, it's definitely for the best. Therapy, while arguably a luxury, is an incredibly important tool for people who may be having a difficult time coping with mental illness or the pressures of simply being alive. Unfortunately, not all therapists are created equal. While seeking help for my own issues (beyond bullies who are telling me to quit my job here…

There is a lot of hostility towards some people pursuing a New Years' Resolution . It's a widely accepted view that lazy people use the new year as an excuse to work on themselves when they would never have otherwise. I don't completely agree with that; I think there are a lot of achievable goals you can set during this time of the year, but not all New Years' Resolutions are created equally. Some people set too high expectations for themselves, which leads o a lot of quitting. This especially…

The state of LinkedIn is grim

Read the room

Twitte may be an absolute cesspool of political drama, porn , and general stupidity But sometimes people (who are a hell of a lot funnier than we will ever be) decide to bless the site with their savage wit and clever quips. This year may have been rough on the website, but we're here to celebrate the people who continued to give their tweets (and their followers) their all, right through 2022's arguably bitter end.

Also, dead celebrity pranks, Australian garage parties, and chain restaurant brawls? All in for 2023!

Hmm

The game is up

The burn of 2022?

Some insane choices

Greetings, internet friends. Hope the bizarre limbo between Christmas and New Year's Day is treating you well. For many of us, it feels like a blur. A calorie-laden, lazy, and hopefully comfortable blur. While it's a blur for me, too, it's like one percent as chaotic as the actual holidays we were celebrating a few days ago. My parents' home was filled with dogs - large dogs, barking dogs , and one of them was a puppy. Between the chaotic canines, and my family's love of talking over one anothe…

Happy Boxing Day, or, "Day of Fatness and Dehydration" as we like to call it. It was a pretty meh weekend, but as my mom says we're pretty lucky. While we stayed inside during the 6-degree cold snap in the Northeast, people a mere 50 miles away from us were without heat or power, and some even froze to death. So it's best to count our blessings. Fortunately (or unfortunately) for us counting our miniscule blessings doesn't take very much time, which leaves a pretty big void to fill with some so…

Smdh.
