Hey!! If maternal mortality rate were like a grade in school, with the best country getting 100% and the worst getting 0%.. the U.S. would only get 65%! Donβt ask me if I want kids in a country that is legitimately failing :)
Hey that TikTok trend about moms getting older and showing your pictures together with you mom doesnβt hurt my feelings at all for someone who has no memories of doing anything with my mom ever
every relationship needs one person who says βWhat else has he been inβ while watching something and one person who excitedly reads their IMDB out loud
The Hunger Games Renaissance is reeeeeally giving 2024 is gonna be the next 2016. Feel like Iβm about to have the best, most memorable year of my life
Once you get sober or even mostly sober you realize REAL QUICK who your friends are. Sickening to see how many people would choose alcohol over friends, family, etc. choosing fucking poison over someone you supposedly love.
David Bowie had gone to a private showing of his 1987 movie Labyrinth. Afterward, heβd have a meet-and-greet with a group of children. He met them and had a ball, but one boy was shy and withdrawn.
So Bowie asked the organizers of the event if he could talk to the boy by himself, seeing as though he was βso shy."
The kid wasnβt actually shy β he was autistic. Bowie told the kid he was also scared, too, of everything. He was, in fact, only able to face other people because of a βmagic maskβ he would always wear. It just so happened the mask was βinvisible.β
He gave it to the boy. He then acted rather distressed himself and had to make another magic mask, after which he became calm, too. Bowie and the kid just hung out for thirty minutes, and it was a magical experience.
The boy later said he actually felt more confident after meeting David Bowie and receiving his βmagic mask."
Bowie reminded the boy of how βeveryone is shy and scared sometimes, and we all wear masksβ. Not every celebrity as famous as Bowie would take so much time and go through such effort to put an uncomfortable kid at ease at an event.
