Notes from the Post-it Wall | Week of August 21, 2022
• Living one’s truth, despite who it hurts, is not malicious. Which is a terribly stupid way of thinking but there it is.
• Is Trevor Noah funny? Because I’m not seeing it.
• I’m not saying public schools are teaching our youngest students the complicated reasons behind gender reassignment, but after two days in Chicago Public Schools, my four-year-old came home asking about it.
• Trauma can be great at making you forget a lot about the hardest parts of your life. If you play it right, trauma can be a lifesaver.
• Pre-schoolers are a lot like chimps. They’re extra adorable when you dress them up like grown adults.
• Well-to-do white people stress: Stuck in the Starbucks drive-thru line with an infant crying their eyes out because they blew shit all over their car seat.
