Happy Birthday Colette! This year has been the toughest in a hundred years. There has been so much loss, violence, and pain. I am so grateful that you came into the world and gave me another reason to be optimistic. When I look at your face, I know that people are fundamentally good. You are a fierce and hilarious little leprechaun. We can’t believe our good luck.
When modern little house on the prairie was a look you were going for.
Happy Thanksgiving! #grateful

We finally got out of the house.
They only cuddle in pictures. For bribes.
When you’re so old that your idea of a good time on your man’s birthday is a trip to @lotuslandgarden
I don’t think she’s that pumped for Summer.
Five years ago, this beautiful, boy begrudgingly exited my body. You are funny, kind, and imaginative. Keep up the good work Oscar.

These days I go to Trader Joe’s in Birkenstock’s mostly. TBF
Today my mother would have been 80 years old. Here she is with all the possibilities that lied ahead of her as a twenty year old bride. Kathleen Winters Tunney gave me the confidence, strength, and tenacity to become the mother and person I am today. Happy Birthday! I’m sad you’re not here to see what you made possible but I know you’re telling everybody in heaven that it’s all because of you. And it is. Everybody who really knows me realizes that. So happy to celebrate you. So sad you never got to meet Colette. Everybody says she’s got a bog piece of you inside her. What an honor.
I happen to have children with the guy who’s referred to as the “hot dad” at the farmer’s market. . We love you and everything you do for us. You’re our rock. And you’re totally hot.
I’m afraid Oscar may have inherited my less than stellar sense of style.
I’m not exactly sure how Oscar got up there. Maybe it’s better that I missed that bit.
@alexipappas and I had a very intense heart to heart on Nick Dawson’s @talkhouse podcast. I assumed this would just be about Alexi’s book but I ended up revealing more about myself than perhaps I ever have.
Here you are at your happiest Patrick Tunney. You are the great one forever and always.
I loved Shiva Baby. It was directed with originality and real panache by @emmmaseligman and features great performances by @treaclychild and Molly Gordon. Watch it if you want to laugh your head off and experience the rage so many girls feel when they’re trying to figure out how to become women. Bravo to everyone involved. Written, directed, shot, edited, and starring all women.
Happy 40th Nicky. I can’t believe how good I’ve got it.

Words cannot express my adoration nor my fear for your loss. RIP you women of courage and substance. God help us.
My friend and cousin of sorts @alexipappas has written a memoir. This book is incredibly inspiring and unbelievably moving. It defies definition because it’s also funny and packed with real advice for anybody out there struggling. With everything going on in the world that pretty much includes all of us. Bravo Alexi! Do yourself a favor and Buy this for yourself, your daughter, your niece, or a friend. It will make anybody’s darkness brighter. What the world needs now is hope and Alexi is serving it.
