Subscriptions for app is such a drag. It’s like an artificial barrier for software that’s already there. The way that apps monetize using the monthly subscription (and then now other software, borrowing that same framework) bums me out.

I’ve been trying so many pop sockets and other magnetic phone grips for my iPhone 17 - I finally had to concede that the MagSafe placement on the back the phone is NOT the ideal place for a grip. It needs to be on the bottom half of the phone, not the middle

baby’s first fever overnight… whew, are we all tired. super grateful to still be nursing and to cosleep because I think we both got the most sleep we probably could have all things considered.

Originally I thought it was the “Three Little Ants” song where they sneeze and fly off the screen, but today it was “If you should meet an elephant” which we have watched before many times without incident. But today it was worth running to me as I sat on the toilet to get some reassurance

also, hello - if you are trans, non-binary, or otherwise erased by whatever the fuck the US federal government is doing right now, please know that I love you for you and you deserve to be your own self.
