The Magic of Baseball

When I was about 5, my parents decided to divorce. But don’t worry. This isn’t really a sad story. There are some sad stories within it, but, at its core, it’s an everyday story about the power of sports. Specifically for me, baseball. My mom, brother, and I became a…

Raising Teens: A Heartbreaking Tale

I have finally made it out of the child years; I told myself life would get so much easier once my kids were more self-sufficient. You spend years of your life meeting every need and making sure they are watched over. In the beginning, it’s all about food and sleep…

Why Do They Need Them?

Educators Wrestle with the Phone Problem I read a story recently about cell phones in schools. Educators hate them. Administrators hate them. Parents say the kids need them, even as they are a significant variable related to mental health issues. The kids are addicted to them. The kids need them…

Dear Gen Z

An Earnest Apology Letter Dear Gen Z, Whew. I am not sure how to start this letter because, wow, the last few years have been an absolute nightmare, but here’s where I’ll begin: I am so sorry. I am sorry that we haven’t been the best stewards of your coming…

“Great! Send More!”

The Dangerous Game of Dehumanization In a move that almost belies belief, the Republican frontrunner for the 2024 Presidential election (no, the other one) chartered a plane to send 50 or so undocumented immigrants from Venezuela to the relatively remote Massachusetts island of Martha’s Vineyard. He somehow lured them from…

Is Abortion Healthcare?

We Are About to Learn This Answer the Hard Way As they told us they would, the Supreme Court officially overturned Roe vs. Wade and Planned Parenthood vs. Casey. While it shouldn’t have come as a shock, it certainly still felt dark, but I don’t think we are prepared for…

Same Song, Different Verse

Our Gun Worship Claims More Victims My class last week introduced the idea of objectivity in the social sciences; inevitably, the students ask me if I can be objective about the subjects I study since they are so, well, human. I answer them honestly: I try as hard as I…

End Of The World As We Know It

Roe Approaches Its Demise Well, this is unprecedented. In a stunning move, the draft of a majority opinion of a tremendously consequential Supreme Court case was leaked to the public. This breach of the norms of confidentiality is shocking. But not as shocking as the draft itself. There are implied…

Welcome to the Circus

Shiny Distractions from Real Issues It’s been a strange couple of weeks as the GOP in Florida waged a full war with…wait for it…Disney? Disney halfheartedly denounced the new bill in Florida deemed “Don’t Say Gay”, as they felt it was harmful to LGBTQ kids. The denouncement was pretty mild…
