So I got my period at work today with absolutely no warning and went around asking all the women in the office if anyone had anything and nobody had a single thing.
One of the guys overheard me and said he had pads in his car because he keeps them there for his girlfriend for emergencies.
And then he went out to his car and came back and handed me a pastry bag.
This man had put the pads inside a pastry bag so nobody would know what was in it. To save me the awkwardness of walking through the office visibly carrying pads. He thought about that. On his own.
And it wasn't just one, he gave me two because I had an eight hour shift and he did that math himself apparently.
I was not prepared for......
INNA LILLAHI WA INNA ILAIHIR RAJI’UN.
The family of the former president has announced the passing on of the former president, Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR, this afternoon in a clinic in London.
May Allah accept him in Aljannatul Firdaus, Amin.
Signed,

You may empty the entire contents of the Oxford English Dictionary in an attempt to attribute the demise of your marriages to young age, but the truth remains that your personal experience is not a scientific fact. There is no template for a happy or stable marriage. Our individual preferences and peculiarities define the outcome of our marriages. You can marry at 20 and have the happiest experience imaginable, or marry at 30 and endure the father of all horrors.
For many women, especially in our part of the world, marriage has been the most practical ladder for climbing up the social hierarchy. They marry up at a young age and achieve what they could not have attained in their parents’ home, supported by a kind husband. These women often end up as benefactors to their peers at quite a young age. Of course, the reverse can also be true. There is no single story about marriage within any specific age range.
The staying power of your marriage is not your age. It is the kindness and maturity of your partner, and yourself. There are fools at 40, and marriage is proof of it. Sometimes, and this is important, you may be the problem all along, but have tricked yourself into refusing to face the mirror, choosing instead to believe the fiction of your cohabitation with a monster.
It’s time to kick this man out of @NGRSenate and retire him completely from politics,enough of the joke he makes with poor and hungry Nigerians.Very selfish and wicked of him to make these comments in his capacity as senate president

Here are some answers from people who fled the ongoing war in Sudan.
No one should have to go through losing everything.
This war must stop.
