First of all, sizing makes absolutely no sense. I picked up three pairs of jeans all the “same” size and every single one fit differently. One wouldn’t go past my thighs. One technically fit but felt tight in a way that made me hyper-aware of my body. The third was loose in the waist but tight in the calves. How is this real? For me, clothes have to feel right. Not just look cute. If the fabric is too stiff, too clingy, too heavy, too scratchy, or sits weird on my shoulders, I can’t ignore it. I

🌻 Have You Heard of the Sunflower Lanyard at Airports? The Sunflower Lanyard is a simple tool that lets airport staff know you or your child may have a hidden disability.

I’ve been married for 5 years, and one thing I’ve learned is that feeding your family healthy meals isn’t about being fancy; it’s about being smart and consistent. Here are 3 simple cooking hacks that have made weeknights way easier for us: 1. Cook once, use twice If I’m making chicken, I cook extra on purpose. The leftovers become tacos, wraps, or a grain bowl the next night. Same protein, different meal. Saves time and keeps things from feeling repetitive. 2. Prep ingredients, not full meals I

My neighbors seem… mysterious. They leave super early in the morning and don’t get back until late at night. I’ll hear doors open and close, footsteps in the hallway, but we’ve never really crossed paths long enough to say more than a quick “hey.” It kind of feels like I live around people, not with people. I’ve learned how to navigate a lot socially, starting friendships from scratch is still hard for me. I don’t always know when it’s appropriate to strike up a conversation. I overthink it. Lik

I’m nonverbal. I struggle to speak, and most days I communicate by typing, gestures, or just sitting quietly. I need to vent because this really hurts and I don’t know if it’s just me being sensitive, or if people actually talk to me harshly. Sometimes people act frustrated with me like I’m being difficult on purpose. They rush me, raise their voices, sigh, or use sharp words when I can’t respond fast enough. And here’s the thing, I can’t just jump in and explain myself. I can’t defend or clarif

Yesterday, Christians began the 40 days of Lent. I’m not here to preach or pressure anyone I’m sharing from my own heart, especially as someone living in the same overwhelming world we all are. For me, Lent isn’t about rules or punishment. It’s about slowing down. It’s about stepping away from the noise and asking, Where is my heart right now? And what am I leaning on when life feels like too much? Looking around the U.S. lately, it feels like so many people are exhausted mentally, emotionally,

I’m a tech person. I work around software and follow AI closely, and for a long time I believed the hype: automate the boring stuff, boost productivity, free people to do more meaningful work. That narrative made sense to me. Then I read a research-heavy piece from The Guardian about AI and the future of work, and it quietly shifted my perspective. The article isn’t about AI “taking all our jobs.” It’s about something subtler and more troubling: how AI is increasingly being used to shift power i
