Today also happens to be 20x200’s birthday. It’s been an admittedly weird year for my beloved Art for Everyone initiative, but months of insane stress + drama—tempered by generous doses of dogged persistence, irrational optimism + the unconditional support of loved ones, friends + colleagues—have resulted in me getting my baby back. There’s still a lot (al lot) to do, but we’re in full-on reboot mode and hope to be online again soon. Hallelujah + amen.

One believes a woman’s right to choose should be protected for future generations; one does not. That difference, given the likelihood of Supreme Court vacancies, weighs heavily on my decision.

One recognizes marriage equality as consistent with America’s march of freedom; one does not. I want our president to be on the right side of history.

One sees climate change as an urgent problem that threatens our planet; one does not. I want our president to place scientific evidence and risk management above electoral politics.

Definitely the ‘N Sync Christmas album [Home for Christmas]. I’m sure that’s helped everyone over a breakup at some point.
What song would you like played at your funeral?
I have no idea. Maybe “It’s a Small World” from the ride at Disneyland. It’s such a true statement.

Once you start looking for a problem, someone’s going to find one, and attention deficit has become the go-to diagnosis, increasing by an average of 5.5 percent a year between 2003 and 2007, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Raising the Ritalin Generation (via The NY Times)

I’m 100% convinced had Ritalin been “in vogue” when I was a kid I would been asked to be put on it (I was pretty hyper active). Luckily I had smart, patient, caring parents. It’s so sad we as a society are in such a rush to medicate kids to be “normal”. My top parenting goal: Let Emma be Emma and develop at her own pace and own level, whatever that might be. She’ll figure it out.
