This looks like a Montessori/Waldorf playroom- the toys are aesthetically pleasing, but they’re also designed very intentionally to encourage open-ended and imaginative play!

This is absolutely terrible and Maria Montessori would be horrified to hear of this happening at a school claiming to teach using her methods.
@molaitdc
@clhubes
I personally prefer Waldorf to Montessori for similar reasons- I am not a terribly organized person, and sometimes Montessori is just too rigid for the way my brain works 😅 I’ve worked with several families that love it, though! It really depends on you and your kid(s)
Not-so-friendly reminder that the list of complications associated with infant circumcision (a cosmetic procedure) includes but is not limited to: bleeding, infection, adhesions, abnormal healing, glans/penis amputation, and death.
Clarification: parts of the interview were released online today, but the full thing doesn’t air until tomorrow. Facts matter, even if Andrew Yang doesn’t 😁
Almost every day I open twitter & find a timeline filled with criticism and hate, and then there’s at least one encouraging tweet from Nnamdi (

I was having a conversation about
@AOC
and my little brother heard me say her full name and he goes “Alexandria Ocasio-WHAT?!” and I repeated myself and he told me HE THOUGHT THE C STOOD FOR CONGRESS. Alexandria Ocasio-Congress. He thought that was her name!!
The quarantine fifteen has quickly turned into the “quarantine four more than I’m comfortable with”... maybe I need to get in on the

trend 😅
First it was “they make a great coffee,” implying that he had visited Hyperion before, and now it’s “touring local businesses, trying some great coffee places” with this in the background of the only photo containing a coffee cup… 🤔
For a history buff like me, there is nothing better than spending time in Fredericksburg, a town with so much historic charm.
Cindy and I had a great time spending the day touring local businesses, trying some great coffee places, and attending the town's tree lighting.

$12k is a conservative estimate… it looks like she has some of the rare/limited edition Artipoppe carriers in there, they can get up to like $4k each and even more in the BST groups
In response to a certain governor’s recent decision to block period tracking apps from keeping our health data private, I am hosting a free virtual workshop on menstrual cycle tracking (without apps) on Monday, February 27th.
Join me to learn about charting your cycle and more!

I’m a birth and postpartum doula and newborn care specialist who has seen botched circumcisions and the permanent harm they cause to children. Even if there are no complications, it’s still incredibly painful and traumatic for a newborn.
I have made the decision to resign from my position as Secretary and Communications Director of YDSA at JMU following several months of disrespect from the organization’s current president which culminated during a discussion this afternoon. Here is my full statement:
@magicpanda_703
Exactly. I can’t imagine willingly inflicting that kind of pain and trauma on a newborn for aesthetic purposes, much less proudly announcing it in a day-in-my-life video for a state senate campaign.
Thanks to our amazing volunteers, Team Ben knocked 1,000 doors today! We are a people powered campaign and with your support, we will secure the Senate majority.
@CandiMundonKing
@JoshuaCole
my hot take: I know bag yard signs are cheaper, but they also look that way! coroplast yard signs last longer and will make ur volunteers a lot happier with feeling like you cared enough to invest in a piece of a campaign that they know matters a lot especially in rural areas 🫶
Close, but what we actually witnessed was you losing your shit in front of 50+ people and screaming at a young dem because you couldn’t handle being called out on your lies!
Turning into a very literal interpretation of that “shaking in my boots” meme because it’s 50° and I am both cold and overcaffeinated but I’m having a wonderful time greeting voters in Charles City!!

Early childhood professionals are just that- professionals. ECC providers provide a foundation for learning that children carry with them for the rest of their lives. To insinuate that they are any less valuable than K-12 teachers is both wildly inaccurate and highly offensive.
I would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that Senator McClellan has been fighting tirelessly not only for Virginians' reproductive freedoms, but also for equity in medical care, comprehensive children's healthcare, tax credits for families with children, (1/3)
I was an infant in 1973 when the U.S. Supreme Court decided Roe v. Wade.
In 2022, I turned 50, but Roe was overturned.
The fight for reproductive freedom continues in the courts, in legislatures, in our communities, and at the ballot box. 1/
Please join me in welcoming Theodora into the world. Mom and baby are both fine. Thank you to the professionals at

Just got discharged from
@InovaHealth
ER after going in because I suspected I had been roofied and couldn’t hold down water. Dr didn’t run any blood tests and treated me like a drug seeking patient because I asked about IV fluids. They gave me zofran and sent me home 🙃
We are just over 4 weeks away from convention! Looking forward to sharing more of my ideas with everyone there.
Feeling immensely grateful for the outpouring of support from friends across the Commonwealth 🤍 If you’d like to endorse me for PAD I’ve linked a google form below ⬇️
Wednesday night with Team Ben 🫶🏼 Grateful for every minute spent with these wonderful people. Can’t wait to do Waffle House nights in Richmond when we send Ben to the VA Senate!
As VAYD’s outgoing Public Affairs Director, I couldn’t be prouder to endorse John for this position- in addition to the impressive experience he will bring to this role, he has so many plans that will help our organization grow and connect with Young Dems across the Commonwealth!
Very pleased to announce that I will be running to serve
@VAYD
as Public Affairs director! Our organization has a busy year ahead of us, including an election in the fall that will define the country’s future for decades. I want to do the best job I can to assist VAYD —

Not a pediatrician, but I’m a birth worker & have taken multiple courses on infant feeding. This is absolutely NOT safe.
Your pediatrician may be able to help you find formula. Donor milk is also an option if formula is unavailable!!
Pretty embarrassing when you’re a candidate trying to answer a question about your own district during a Democratic committee meeting, but fail so hard that someone else has to hold up your opponent’s lit to show what the district looks like 🥴
@achaikof
I definitely understand why it’s important to many people for religious reasons- however, I believe it’s a decision that should be made by the person whose body is going to be irreversibly changed when they are old enough to consent to it.
Ok I know I just said french fries are out literally less than 24 hours ago but does anyone know where I can get parmesan truffle fries in or near Richmond 👀
We have to do more to protect our kids, to keep guns out of our schools. We owe it to them.
Watch my new ad about why I’m running for Virginia State Senate⬇️
One of the many perks of spending so much time in Fredericksburg- so many great places to grab coffee or dessert 😋 Had to stop for ice cream on my way home after a very productive day of meetings! 😉
Why? Because she’s brought a ludicrously capacious bag. What’s even in there, huh? Flat shoes for the canvass? Her candidate’s lit? I mean, Greg, it’s monstrous. It’s gargantuan. You could take it camping. You could slide it across the floor after a bank job.
Utterly astonished by the sheer audacity of this tweet. Leaders must be held accountable for their actions, even in college clubs. Minimizing abuse because it happened in a college club is unacceptable. Writing off months of deliberate choices as "mistakes" is unacceptable.
There are very few feelings more rewarding as an organizer than getting complimented on a button/shirt/sticker and getting to say “I actually worked on that campaign!”
So glad I was able to see
@DSMcAuliffe
here in Harrisonburg for a second time this week!! I’m so inspired by what she’s already accomplished as first lady and excited for all of the great work she’s going to do for the children of Virginia in the future!!
@TylerJDBegley
They would definitely tell you they couldn’t change your oil unless you bought the most expensive synthetic option and also all four of your tires need to be replaced and there’s an extra $40 charge for the washer fluid you didn’t ask for but they added anyway!
Absolutely wild that this is still happening in 2024. I just found out last week that products from a BABY FOOD BRAND I used to recommend to clients contain lead and haven’t been recalled! No amount of lead exposure is safe. These companies need to be held accountable.
BREAKING: Lunchables have been found to contain dangerous amounts of lead.
New research has also shows that Lunchables have chemicals found in plastics that have been linked to reproductive problems, diabetes, and certain cancers.

deserves all the credit for this, he set everything up/assigned turfs/did confirms so all I really had to do was train people on MiniVAN and flake chase for like 10 minutes
