Adults really do love just open mouth coughing into the air these days

I spent last week visiting Ahmed while on a work trip ❤️‍🩹 It’s beyond imagination that after fleeing genocide and *in Europe* he’s still reliant on strangers for help, but believe me, he is not pleased about it. We collect his monthly expenses; I send for June on THURSDAY. 114/387 tiny.cc/HelpAhmedF

just had a wild interaction in union station where a guy asked me “what happened,” said he had cerebral palsy and he and his twin were supposed to die at birth and they’re now 42. then walked away and yelled “YOURE LOOKIN AT A 3 POUND BABY”

If you're reading this, my cat and I have boarded a one-way flight out of the United States. The Trump administration wrongfully denied my work permit renewal; after months of demanding that they follow the law, we have run out of legal recourse, and I have no choice but to leave the country. (🧵)

Sigourney Weaver over Grogu: “Geen poppenspelers”

This is indeed a really fascinating element of all this, and I’d argue that journalists are often even worse dupes for this kind of marketing than the average person, bc so many are pushed to be the *first* to identify a new star, name a new phenomenon, etc.

they’re trying to build a mountain bike trail at wildcat canyon regional park and a lady on nextdoor says you can’t because of “energies” in the canyon and refuses to elaborate

I am Mona Hijazi. For over a year and a half, I’ve said it again and again: I am Mona, from Gaza. A mother of 3. Dozens have messaged me, to “check if I’m real.” To “make sure I’m not lying.” Enough. I’m tired. Tired of justifying my pain. Tired of being doubted, questioned, humiliated. ↘️↘️↘️↘️

today some kids kept asking me to bring uno no mercy but they kept calling it “uno no respect” lol

where do y’all go to read essays these days? I feel like I am stuck in 2018-2021 and would like to read essays that are currently being published. preferably not like substacks but actually published with editors ;)

and if I said E.T. the extraterrestrial (1982) was one of the most poignant and important movies about childhood illness, hospitalization, isolation, grief, and acceptance ever, then what

@mikeduquette.bsky.social I just found and read your essay in wig-wag by googling “e.t. the extraterrestrial + nicu” knowing someone else surely must have drawn the parallels. really enjoyed reading it :)

Every time I ask for help, I feel deeply ashamed but I do it for my child. I'm not looking for luxury, but for security, for a life that preserves my child's dignity and childhood This campaign is a lifeline for me and my child Please consider my child as your own Soad 💔🙏🏼 chuffed.org/project/soad
