This is my house rep, and also the one I used to work for.
Thank you, this is the first proper laugh I’ve had today
Rant, also not funny
When my son was three he was eligible for therapies (physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy) through the local school system. They had set up a special pre-K classroom within the nearest elementary school. This meant that when he was FUCKING THREE YEARS OLD he did ALICE drills. EVERY. MONTH. They did not tell us in advance when they were happening, we got a text after the fact.
One day we were playing hide and seek in the house and he and I were both in the walk in closet with the lights out. He asked me “Mommy, will you always take care of me?” and it broke my fucking heart. That’s what his teacher told him when they did the ALICE drills.
When they started having the kids going back to school this fall, someone on Facebook wondered “How are schools going to do the active shooter drills where everyone hides in the closet while still maintaining social distancing?” and how the fuck is that a sentence someone can say, what the fuck is wrong with us.
Ahem. Now back to the funnies. Maybe I should’ve posted my meme after the rant instead of before.
Bj’s memes have been strong lately.
Honestly, this brings me more joy and sense of purpose than is probably healthy
Dude. Your specialty in life is taking care of people when they can’t breathe without help and understanding ALL the ways they are deserving of care. You’re really fucking good at it. And we love you for it.
I mean, lately my speciality is just taking care of a very silly cast of a couple tiny dependents and posting memes and trying to keep my parents from killing themselves
Parent rant
Given that Az has been declared “the hotspot of the world” they’re CONSIDERING not going down for the summer so glad we’ve made it this far.
BJ’s memes are an invaluable public service.
(To be clear, I don’t advocate the call for violence. It’s more the bingo card aspect that’s amusing me, esp as it’s a running trope)
