Anyone: “Getting older is such a gift”
Perimenopause: It sure is…I’m just going to freeze the shoulder, play a loud ringing noise in your ear, make you unbearably hot then unexpectedly freezing, oh, let’s have some hair coming in thick from your chin, and here’s some homicidal level rage for every time your partner chews from now on, cue the 3-day bleeding followed by the 75-day bleeding 3-months later, and NO MORE SLEEP.
XO, Dr. Jen
It depends on what the goat grew up eating. Za kijijini zinazolisha porini huwa zishakula kivumbani, ashwagandha, na kadhalika ladha tayari iko shwari 🤭
IDK if it’s just me but mbuzi choma just needs salt/salty water and an open flame. Mambo ya paprika, cumin, black pepper, ashagwanda, paw paw seeds sijui nini weka mbali 🤣
You people have got to adopt more intelligent/nuanced readings of the complaints Nairobians make about their surroundings.
It's not NIMBYism, or yearning for 70s/80s/90s aesthetics.
They're complaining about the decline in liveability (quality of life) in shorthand.
After the world is done raving about 🇨🇩 DR. Congo’s grand arrival and fashion look for the World Cup, please also take the time to educate yourselves about our issues and amplify our voices. DR. Congo is currently undergoing a genocide and one of its worst Ebola outbreaks.
Laughter is anti-inflammatory. Crying is regulating. Hugging is immunoprotective. Singing is vagal toning. Dancing is neurogenic.
Joy is a biological necessity.
Let your children see you have fun. Sprinkle it in whenever you can; Sing while you're stuck in traffic, dance when you're cleaning the kitchen and laugh at your own mistakes. Fun doesn't have to be reserved for weekends & vacation. Show your children how to enjoy life even in the mundane routines; they'll watch, learn and do the same.
As a neurodivergent, you don't actually want a "normal" life.
You want:
• mornings that don't begin in panic
• work that doesn't require constant masking
• friendships that feel safe instead of exhausting
• enough money to live without chronic stress
• a home that feels like a refuge, not another responsibility
• time to pursue interests without guilt
• permission to exist without explanation
Most neurodivergent people aren't asking for special treatment.
They're asking for a life that doesn't require them to fight their own brain every single day.
@Favwontmiss My brain has a waiting room full of critically acclaimed shows. Unfortunately, the receptionist only works three random hours a month and refuses to explain the selection criteria.
Kenyan FARMERS, a severe El Niño is forecast for Kenya from mid-2026 through Q1 2027, potentially worse than 1997. In '97, flooding killed 2,000+ people, wiped out 300,000 ha of crops, and killed over 600,000 livestock.
Here's a 14-step action plan. Start this week. 🧵
More Samara Joy propaganda because it’s healthy for the soul.
