A useful gif from Fighting with Babies, the show that puts the “felt” in heartfelt. (video)




Just a reminder that I once dedicated time, money, and other resources to create a puppet show for parents.

All right, people...

I’ve posted before about how I get messages from people just saying “hi” or whatever. It’s still happening.

So, I’m opening the door for anyone to ask me or message me just to mix it up. Usually, I say “it doesn’t have to be about parenting.” This time, just ask me about parenting.

C’mon, I’m a non-expert author of a bestselling parenting book. What could go wrong?

Message me or drop a note in my ask hole.

Let’s do this. people.

'Faith' is bringing a 'fat' superhero into the mainstream

Catch my friend and former coworker Jody Houser (aka @mindeclipse) on NPR’s Take Two discussing Faith, which she writes, and how it’s changing the comic world.


I know a lot of parents who’ve struggled to find comics for their daughters that portray women in a body-positive way. (Spider Woman cover, anyone?) Well, my friend Jody writes Faith, a comic about a female superhero with a realistic body, and it rocks.

Wake up, comic industry. There’s a new super-heroine and comic fans can’t get enough of her.

Boone: Good... No one cheered when I stood up, though.

Me: I cheered.

Boone: Yeah.

We got the new Marvel Battlegrounds set for Disney Infinity.

Me and the boys literally spent three straight hours playing yesterday, just beating the shit out of each other.

It was awesome.
