Cupcakes with Stormageddon and Kacy. So fun to hang out, commiserate about politics in Kansas, and talk strength training. Also, she gave me her old stroller! Thank you!

We’re at the laundromat. Baby is sleeping soundly in the moby wrap. I am avoiding reading because it’s a Daenerys chapter, and right now those are b-o-r-i-n-g.

Look what came in the mail! Daniel&#8217;s mother ordered a fitbit for my birthday. For Mother&#8217;s Day Daniel got me a great used jogging stroller. I am so excited to start using both of them!

Yesterday evening, while researching a throwaway analogy, I learned that in the original book, Horton heard a Who on a specific date: May 15th.

Later last night it occurred to me to create a national movement encouraging people to make their voices heard on May 15th — Who Day —…

YES. YES. YES!

Personal property tax is bullshit in my opinion. By the time I get rid of my car I will have bought it twice and owned it once.

You’re right. Property taxes hurt working families the most. Kansas…

colincurtis:

Governor Brownback is missing the point. If he wanted to cut taxes for EVERY Kansan he would be pushing for property tax relief. 
But he doesn’t want to cut your taxes. His idea of a tax cut will actually cause your tax bill to go up. 
And it comes at the expense of the schools that you and families in your community depend on. It puts even more of our most vulnerable at risk. It means state workers won’t see a decent paycheck any time soon. 
Contact your legislator today and tell them to support tax relief for ALL Kansans. Tell them to focus on property tax relief, and to forget about Brownback’s income tax cuts that will cost most Kansans more than they pay today.

“Mann writes about her daughter’s complaint that today, not working outside the home and enjoying motherhood is looked upon with scorn. What I see is the wider issue that most of our choices, as women, are looked upon with scorn. To work, or stay at home. Have a “career”, or a “job”. Have children when we’re 20, or when we’re 30. Send them to nursery while we work, or spend all our time with them. Pursue personal interests, or have none. Be open about enjoying sex, or be open about having issues with it. Society sets us up to judge the choices of others, creating “wars” and “catfights” rather than encouraging us to press for change. And it is this that often prevents us from seeing the bigger picture, so keen are we to assert the validity of whatever choices we’ve made.” — Hannah Mudge: The Fifties: a warning from history (via rachelhills)
