CoT:

Vertigo becoming dad again. Spacelaw reminding dads to be present – our better halves are way more preoccupied with our LOs, and we are more likely to escape into work. Be deliberate about being present.

There are a lot of people in much worse circumstances than we are, and we don’t like to see it. A lot more people are about to be worse off than they would have been – pay attention to those that say they need help and/or are hurting.

Last month, Hill was asked if the massacre of children and teachers at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, and the anticipated end of Roe were connected. “They absolutely are,” she said.

“The general level of misogyny that is in our society today … is manifested in smaller ways as well as the most egregious ways on the occasion of these mass murders,” Hill said, per Fortune’s Broadsheet newsletter.

Though Thomas might once have worried that his actions would end his career, it seems Jefferson’s prediction has been proven true. Now we all must suffer through Thomas’s revenge.
