@NFL_DovKleiman At least she showed her face. Us Bengals fans got a shitty social media post

[Simons @Simon_Ingari]

“Can I bring my baby to the interview?”

The message came in at 11 PM:

“Hi, I have an interview with you tomorrow at 2 PM. My childcare fell through. Can I bring my 8-month-old? I understand if you need to reschedule.”

Old me would have rescheduled.
Unprofessional. Distraction. Red flag.

New me replied:
“Absolutely. See you tomorrow.”

She showed up with her baby on her hip.
She apologized three times before even sitting down.

Ten minutes in, the baby started crying.
She tried to soothe him while answering questions.
She apologized again.

I stopped the interview and said:

“Hey. You’re managing a fussy baby, answering complex questions, and staying calm under pressure. That’s literally the job. Handling chaos while staying professional. You’re already proving you can do it.”

Her eyes filled with tears.

We hired her.

She’s been with us for a year now.
The most reliable team member we have.

Why?

Because when you’re used to handling a screaming infant at 3 AM and still showing up to work the next day, workplace stress feels like nothing.

Working parents, especially mothers, are some of the most organized, efficient, and resilient people you’ll ever hire.

Yet we lose them because our hiring processes are built for people with zero caregiving responsibilities.

If your interview process can’t accommodate a parent facing a childcare issue, you’re not filtering for professionalism.

You’re filtering for privilege.

[SophieZX @Z_XSophie]

I've lived in Athens, in Eksarhia, since 2004. I studied theater drama, worked late nights in productions, and always saw myself as open-minded. I used to say, Let them come-refugees from war, they deserve safety. But last summer, something changed. Not my heart, but my reality. Every day, I took the bus to work in the city center. Traffic in Athens is a nightmare, so public transport is my life. One morning, I passed a man sleeping on the street near my bus stop. He wasn't just there-he shouted at me. Mean, angry words I couldn't understand. I froze, scared, and hurried past. It happened again the next day, louder. So, I changed my route. I walked a longer circle to avoid him, my heart racing each time I left home. He disappeared for a while. I felt relief. Then, he reappeared-right at the entrance of my building. My home. I work late in theater, coming back at midnight, sometimes later. There he was, lying on his bed of blankets, blocking my way. I started sneaking around the back of my building, circling in the dark just to feel safe. Me, a woman born in this country, tiptoeing around my own home. Then, not even a month later, I saw it on social media and the news. This man attacked a girl in broad daylight. She was walking her dog in a park, and he hit her with an iron, splitting her head open. She was in the hospital. I learned he'd been arrested before-twice-for attempted rape in my area. But each time, he was released. Why? Prisons are full, they said. He's a Palestinian war refugee, they said, protected by asylum laws. A police official came on TV and admitted it: even after this attack, the man would likely be free in six months. No space to hold him. I sat there, stunned, thinking: What is happening to my city? I'm not heartless. I've always felt for people fleeing war. But when someone hurts others-when they make women like me afraid to walk home-shouldn't that end their protection? Athens isn't the same anymore. There are areas in the center I won't go at night. Buses where I'm the only Greek, sometimes the only woman, surrounded by men staring. It's not about where they're from-it's about feeling safe. When I'm alone on that bus, my hands shake. I'm not ashamed to admit I'm scared. This isn't just my story. It's happening all over Athens. Undocumented immigrants, unrecorded, with no place to sleep, no jobs, no food. I don't blame them for wanting a better life. But when there's no system to track them, to house them, to integrate them, it's chaos. Greece is drowning. We can't take more people when we don't have space, when our prisons release attackers because there's no room, when our streets feel unsafe for women like me. I hear people like Elon Musk talking about this-saying Europe needs stricter rules, that we can't just open doors without knowing who's coming. I agree. Not because I hate anyone, but because I want my country to stay mine-safe, familiar. It's not about being fascist. It's about being honest. These immigrants, they come from places with different values. Not worse, just different. Where women, life, everything is seen differently. We can't pretend that doesn't matter. I've seen it on the streets, felt it in the stares. We need to acknowledge cultural differences to live together, not ignore them and hope for the best. Saying this doesn't make me racist. It makes me human. I'm scared when I walk home. I'm angry when I hear about girls attacked in parks. I'm frustrated when I see my city stretched to its breaking point, taking in people we can't support. They're not numbers-they're humans with needs. But so are we. If we take everyone, without papers, without plans, where will they sleep? How will they eat? What happens when those needs turn into crime because the system failed them too? I still believe in compassion. I want to help refugees, but not like this. We need documentation, names, backgrounds. We need homes for them, jobs, a way to blend into our culture while keeping Greece safe. Why is it so hard to say that? Why does admitting my fear make me feel like I'll be judged? How do we stay kind but protect our streets? How do we balance their safety with ours? I don't have all the answers. But I know this: I want to walk to my bus without circling in fear. I want Athens to feel like home again. And I want to say this out loud, in my voice, without being called names. Because this is my truth-and I know I'm not alone.

@PatMcAfeeShow Is the worst 🤬🤬🤬🤬

[Matt Van Swol @mattvanswol]

FEMA is actively blocking volunteers from delivering RVs, tiny homes, and other housing units to people living in tents in #WNC because they are "in a flood zone".

The Fox News host can't even believe it.

The truth is so much more horrifying than any conspiracy theory.

10 Shocking Stories the Media Buried This Week

#10 - FDA approves clinical trials for new “pandemic” vaccine.

- The trials are funded by BARDA (so your tax dollars)
- The words “pandemic vaccine” are in the study's title (weird)
- It's for bird flu
- The most chilling thing is the “vaccine” uses lipid nanoparticles and self-amplifying RNA technology.

Self-amplifying RNA (saRNA) technology allows the RNA to essentially “photocopy” itself inside the body without an off switch.

Dr. Jessica Rose (@JesslovesMJK) describes the new vaccine candidate as “gain-of-function” inside the human body.

She writes, “Based on evidences collected over the past four years from peer-reviewed literature and FOIA requested data, it is more likely than not that this is the priming of/grooming of the public for the next ‘planned pandemic.’ I mean, it’s in the clinical trial name.”

Dr. Jessica Rose joins the show to elaborate on her concerns. This conversation is a jaw-dropper.

No, this is not a video from a war-torn country in the Middle East.

This is the aftermath of the Minneapolis Riots after Governor Tim Walz allowed it to burn four consecutive nights.

Kamala Harris bailed out the violent rioters.

This is their legacy.

Vote accordingly.

This clip of Trump explaining the dump truck, is funnier than 99% of Netflix comedy specials. 😂

And this is the guy they said was Hitler?

As for the Dems, they are in trouble. Trump is relaxed, smooth, and having fun. They can’t compete with this.

[George @BehizyTweets]

WATCH: Democrat voters said Republicans hate immigrants, and a LEGAL Haitian Republican immigrant stepped up and crushed all of them

"Democrats are at a point right now where they are shipping a bunch of illegal immigrants... We have CRIMINALS from my own country traveling here to the border. And they are placing them in the black communities."

"They are taking funds away from the people who were there. So, as an immigrant, I think it's the worst thing for this country for Black & Hispanic people to vote Democrats."

The entire moment was GOLD. He melted all their brains.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

Donald Trump has been very clear that he would weaponize the Department of Justice against his political enemies. You know who does that?

Dictators do that.

[George @BehizyTweets]

A Muslim Michigan woman just delivered one of the most powerful messages to Trump about Big Pharma, revealing that the "chokehold" they have over people's health is CRIMINAL.

Trump listened to her concerns and told her to set up a meeting with RFK Jr.

"You must love Bobby Kennedy, right?"

Her: "I DO."

"The world needs healing, and I can only hope that you and your campaign are the catalyst for that because I know for sure the other team is nothing."

I love this lady.
