Have you ever read something where you just KNOW the writer talks with their hands, does the sound effects, and would bust out a little dance if it suited the story? That's Erica. She's a colorful storyteller whose sense of humor and fearless honesty make a big impact. Her rants might go for the emotional jugular, hit your funny bone, or shock you and your mama out of your fajas. Usually it's all three. Often chronicling her life in Florida, her stories are full of characters like "Bikini Rifle Lady", "Mariachi Neighbor," and "Barbara The NextDoor Evangelist." There's almost always a message in the madness, and that's what people connect with most. Also her deep and undying love for Tevin Campbell. You can find more of her work at www.EricaFazio.com

"Parent brain" is a very real phenomenon and Emily Vondy is here with evidence.

Normally when we hear stories about parents forgetting their children's birthdays, the parent plays the role of the villain. In Emily's case, though, she comes across as more of a sympathetic character.

She wasn't forgetting to celebrate her young son's birthday—she was just celebrating it on the wrong day. Somehow, she got the day she gave birth mixed up.

She didn't realize it until a billing issue for a doctor's visit caused confusion.

The insurance company had her son's birthday listed as February 25, but she had been celebrating it on February 26. Curious and with her phone already in her hand, she figured she would just scroll Facebook to look at his birth announcement.

Sooo ... turns out the insurance company was right.

To make matters worse, the kid in question is Emily's middle child.

Vondy is aware she's not doing much to battle the stereotype the middle child gets ignored.

Giphy

Middle kids of TikTok totally felt for her son.

But Emily was far from alone on this.

Apparently this sort of thing happens often?

The honest confession encouraged others to share their run-ins with the dreaded "parent brain."

So parents out there, cut yourselves some slack.

We can't say we've all gotten a birthday wrong—but who among us hasn't accidentally called one kid by a pet's name, totally forgot what grade the kid is in, etc...?

Parenting is hard and these young people—especially these pandemic babies—are just built different.

We need naps.

We deserve them.

We hope Emily got one.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

But TikToker and Instagrammer Kaitlynn McCutcheon may have gotten too into her performance of Britney Spears' classic, "Hit Me Baby, One More Time," when the road and her car both said, "Bet."

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
