Same. Two parents trying to work from home fulltime with a small child is just such a loving joke. Every day is just a crescendo of stress and chaos with no end in sight.

Please note that you need at least 1 switch per child. Anything less is likely to increase rather than decrease drama.

The writers are really phoning it in this season, huh? I thought they were going some interesting places with all these evil people catching corona, but like the last couple seasons they don't want to change the status quo and are predictably just hammering the 'lol hellworld' button over and over again. It's Lost all over again.

Seems like we've passed the point where social distancing is still new and we're making funny memes about it. The novelty is wearing off this week and people will start going truly stir crazy next week.

We're coming into what will be known post-mortem as the "alcoholism surge" stage of shelter-in-place

the 8 year old has had a total of 2 half hour classes with his school in the last month. both were complete train wrecks and very, very little support from the district for any other material. here's mobymax! that will keep them engaged!

the 4 year old has decided now would be a great time to learn how to kick the everloving poo poo out of her older brother any chance she can get. full out flying tackles and a pretty mean choke hold. she doesn't even know what a kidney is, but she knows where to punch one.


i guess its lucky the c-suite like to hear the blood curdling screams of the young in battle while on conference calls?

i finally saw someone else wearing a mask today. a woman and her kids, all wearing homemade masks, and she kept reminding them to make sure the mask covers their nose and mouth. it made me feel good and hopefully people here are starting to get the message :unsmith:
