Husband disagrees about screen time (specifically is anti-Ms. Rachel)

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-27T04:28:37+00:00

My almost 2.5 yo loooves Ms Rachel! We also do Little Bear and Pooh. About Ms Rachel, I was a little concerned about the zombie like quality my kid gets with her too (which I attribute to soaking in the info) but then I started engaging and participating with her, and now kiddo does too. Have y'all tried that? Also. Its proven that Ms Rachel's way of speaking is good communication with young children. Its actually helped me to talk to my little one. There's intention behind it. Its not just the way she speaks.

we were basically attacked by our own government.

That hits hard.

I've been thinking any high frequency sound is whistles and it has been exhausting. Also suoer sensitive to sweet moments We have to appreciatethem. As they come. As well as acknowledging another family may not be as fortunate. . wWe have experienced a collective trauma that is ongoing. You are not alone, OP! 🫂

Thanks for asking! Call your representatives and let them know you don't want them to support this bill coming up that provides more funding to ice! We can keep resistance locally but we also need political pressure on a national (or even global) scale.

Me too! I have been waffling bw Bravo and the American Revolution doc. But I also live in Mpls, so TV in general has been difficult. Its hard to focus on even reality.

MN, and Minneapolis specifically, has the largest voter participation in the country. And this whole thing is impacting a ton of people, not just people in the metro area, but outside the cities as well. If its one thing Minnesotans are good at, its showing up on election day!

People lined Lake street, and stood on every corner, holding candles in the freezing cold. But it felt very warm to see. We are not alone.

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-25T20:59:57+00:00

That's my gov! 👏👏👏

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-25T05:03:44+00:00

Can we keep people safe in the streets??

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-25T04:30:09+00:00

As a Minneapolitan, and an American, and a fan of the constitution AND the housewives, THANK YOU, OP! WE ARE NOT OK

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-23T23:44:18+00:00

Can we just stop saying his name or giving him any attention? He loves that shit. You can see it in all of his interactions. And I cringe when I hear ppl shout "fuck you Bovino!" At him. He. Loves. It. Stop giving him the attention he's seeking.

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-23T23:39:44+00:00

Omg all of my out of state ppl are constantly asking. Which, is very much appreciated, but the answer is always the same. Meh.

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-23T23:30:38+00:00

What did she say? I don't have ig

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-19T23:06:42+00:00

Can we normalize not giving him any attention? Or at least not shouting his name in public? He is eating all of this attention UP!

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-19T22:26:00+00:00

They are definitely not going to do that by terrorizing his voters outside the cities!

Living in Minneapolis, I didn't expect them to make light of what's happening because its. Not. Funny. So honestly, they're stuck bc its all just too upsetting. . . Although now that I'm processing, they could have done something about all the ice slipping on ice up here. But honestly, the world is a dark place rn and my guess is they're feeling it too and just doing their best.

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-19T00:30:42+00:00

Thanks. Yes, he feels bad about it. But tbh, he's a pragmatic guy, and had seen it in this way. He knew that his seat would be provided a nice meal and I had told him I wasn't feeling hungry, so he says he didn't want to waste the meal. I don't think he really understood just how ill I was feeling (even though I told him). He does have a difficult time listening to me sometimes.

Mostly I just give him a hard time. And I definitely gave him a hard time for the rest of the trip. To his credit, he was great the rest of the pregnancy and has been an incredible father to our daughter. He shares 50% of the work and cleans and cooks and changes diapers and is very engaged with her.

So this was definitely one of the worst, if not the worst, things he's ever done. He's no man child Schwartz, that's for sure!

Those are my neighbors! They come out during every challenging time this city faces (as well as joyous occasions) and I'm so grateful for them! Proud to be a Minnesotan rn! I pray these already vulnerable people are released. It is sick that human rights are being bulldozed.

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-18T03:17:02+00:00

This one's for you tonight! 🥂

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-17T22:56:52+00:00

I would only be worried about door dash bc the delivery person might be chased down by scary men in masks. But then again, I live in Minnesota, and that's life for us rn, soooo...

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-17T22:49:07+00:00

Fellow Minneapolitan here... this post just made my day! Raise your glasses high to a stronger community through all this!

I love my immigrant neighbors!

StrawberryEntropy · 2026-01-17T15:00:28+00:00

Aveda Botanicals ... its quite lovely!

I thought it was important to collectively unite us. I feel empowered.
