14 had a bi-annual active shooter drill today at school and her “job” was to hold the special rope they keep in classrooms to hold the door shut while kids pile the desks and chairs in front of it. You know, normal shit.

Oh fuck you universe for taking Catherine O'Hara before you took that orange motherfucker. This is all kinds of wrong.

Kilauea 🌋 is erupting again if you need a good visualization of hot rage

Delayed, so I get to spend more time making friends at the airport.

14 has a pack of 8 girls in her gym class who have switched from ignoring her to being way too interested in her after she did really well at some game that involves tag and flags. She said her gut was going off that something was up. I told her she must be cautious and study them like Jane Goodall.

A NYE story:

Smaller fireworks are legal in Hawaii but people bring in larger aerials, which were the cause of a huge accident in Honolulu last year that killed 6 people. So a new law was passed with harsh penalties for shooting off the big stuff. Large fines and even prison time, depending on how egregious. The news has been repeating stories about police enforcement of said law for weeks.

People seemed to be basically ignoring the new law last night as it got closer to midnight here on Kauai. When 2025 finally got the fuck out, the place erupted with fireworks.

Not 5 minutes into the new year, the skies, which were partly cloudy, opened up with an epic downpour of rain. It lasted maybe 2 minutes, but was enough to stop most of the explosions. Mother Nature literally was like will you please STFU? And she accomplished what no law of man could.

Considering asking every educator I have to interact with at my kid’s high school “so who’d you vote for” up front so I understand who I’m dealing with.

Got my ducks in a row

Life is easier when you recognize the kids who never did any work on the group project grow up to be the adults who never do any work on the group project because they’re busy posting on LinkedIn

Crazy red #aurora visible to the naked eye. Chicago suburbs, 11/11/25.

There’s a kid wearing a MAGA hat to school the past couple of days, so 14 checked with the dean about the rules for wearing political clothing and it’s allowed so long as it doesn’t cause a disruption. So she asked to borrow my Punch a Nazi hat today.

Breaking the stigma of butthole talk one toot a time

A friend was walking her dog in Oak Park IL yesterday morning and witnessed ICE detain a U.S. citizen, who is part of the community rapid response team, with their guns drawn, across the street from an elementary school. She ran up to record them and realized it was someone she knew when another person yelled for his name. ICE released him after a few hours and gave him a ticket for… something.

Apparently their group chat is named Chiraq Team 2.

Found this kitty in the parking lot hiding under a car after karate today. Very friendly so clearly this is someone’s cat but was scared out of her little mind. We’ve posted on Nextdoor, unfortunately no microchip. Local shelter won’t take her so she’s hanging out in our garage. Our dogs are not cool with cats. Hopefully someone sees the post and is reunited. Otherwise we’ll find her a happy home.

On a crazy chance, if you recognize this cat shoot me a DM. Found in west suburbs of Chicago.

If only I could go back in time and tell 2001 me that I now bear the mark of Antifa in 2025.

Weird. The volcano Kilauea started erupting last night and I’m just going to mention that in Hawaiian legends, Kilauea is the home of Pele and these eruptions are seen as displays of her passion and strength. Tūtū Pele is a symbol of resilience and transformation for Hawaiians, on this random Saturday in October where millions of people are heading out to protest a tyrant.

Edited to add a pic from the USGS livestream. She mad.
