Having kids during COVID has been super rough. All the talk about putting down your phone, looking away from the news, etc. doesn’t feel like a sufficient solution to me since, as a parent, my life went by in 5 to 10 minute snippets as I de

Thus the solar panels. So long as the installation proves to make financial sense, the PV production offsets the heat pump efficiency, even in winter months.

Part of how they were able to do this is that they have independent kids (reading age, able to self-care/entertain) so there is a possibility for a day off with little preparation. This isn’t the case for most parents I know, including

Why can’t it be both? Why can’t art that is fundamentally for yourself still be fundamentally social? The entirety of the concepts, techniques, themes, etc. in any art come from exterior influences; the complex web of humanity and our histo
