My 12-year-old daughter is like everyone else’s 12-year-old daughter: awash on a hormonal sea, her moods rising and falling like breakers in a storm. My tween has thrown her arms up over songs I’ve played in the car, huffed over homemade dinners that didn’t suit her tastes, and even stomped to her room over embarrassing outfits (not hers — mine). But one thing she isn’t mad about? Being one of only a few kids in the seventh grade without a cellphone.

それはただの冗談から始まった。 私はiPhoneからメールやメッセージの通知音を聞くたびにうんざりしていた。夫や子どもたちの前で「このスマホ、ぶっ壊してやる」と真顔で言ったこともある。 そして、その日10回目となる学校からの通知音が鳴った。 「今日の体育で、1年生はフラフープを使って体のコーディネーション能力をつける練習をしました！」 私はスマホを置いて熱帯雨林に引っ越すと家族を脅した。「冗談じゃなく、マジで」と言って、振動するスマホをソファの隙間に押し込んだ。 「もう、ガラケーに変える」 少し計算したあと、冗談が少し本気に変わった。私のスマホ曰く、私の1日の使用時間は毎日3時間半だった。数学専攻ではなかったが、1日3時間半が年間1277時間だということは間違いないと思う。 もしあと40年（80歳まで）生きるとしたら、私はそのうちの6年間をスマホをスクロールすることに費やすことになる。別の見方をすると、残りの人生で起きている時間のおよそ22％をスマホとの睨めっこに使うことになる。...

When I gave birth to four kids inside the tiny span of four years, I had no choice but to let some things go. There’s nothing like a household chock-full of criers (my husband and I included) to rearrange priorities and lay waste to perfectionism. Turns out, that essentials-only approach was the best thing that ever happened to my parenting. I quickly learned that not only would my kids be fine if I didn’t accommodate their every whim, but they’d be more independent and self-assured, too. My advice?

Climate change affects all countries – with those affected by fragility and conflict facing a double burden. Not only are settings affected by fragility, conflict and violence (FCV) among the most vulnerable to climate impacts – the interplay between climate change and instability further amplifies the risks and undermines their ability to respond.

I have been using Figma since 2017 and never really had prototypes so slow and sluggish. Even the most complex one I made always worked quite well. But the latest update just made them completely unusable. Transition takes seconds. Even loading a silly overlay takes 3 to 4 seconds in delay. Prototypes that were snappy and fast now they are impossible to run. Please fix this.

This article was originally published on May 30, 2016. Twenty-first-century Black women advocating on behalf of Black girls are building momentum around policy and research meant to address with precision the age-, race-, and gender-specific problems of Black girls. At the top of the agenda of activists, funders, and even the White House is the criminalization of Black girls. In publications such as Pushout: The Criminalization of Black Girls in Schools (2016) by Monique M.

Toward the Walrus: Remembering Why You Like Writing By Lindsey DeLoach JonesLast year I taught creative writing at a residential arts high school for gifted students. My students had applied and been selected from across the state, and they were wildly talented. But a couple of weeks into the semester, it dawned on me: they didn’t like writing.

By Lindsey DeLoach Jones @lindseydjIt started, for me, with the mommy blogs. In the late 2000s, as a newlywed in graduate school, I ravenously read the blogs of Kristen Howerton (Rage Against the Minivan), Glennon Doyle (Momastery), and Heather Armstrong (Dooce). Although these writers almost universally despised the term “mommy bloggers,” the “mommy” part of their designation was—for me and many other 20-and-30-somethings—beside the point.
