That just is not true. Please stop these ridiculous talking points. I have gone to stand with these families every single year for a decade now. My friends and neighbors are not crying for 6 hours straight. We are greeting each other, hugging each other, laughing at the memories and the jokes the families tell remembering their loved ones. Most politicians do not stay the entire time, in fact every year, at the end it is usually just me and former mayor Mike Bloomberg. This year was different @NYCMayor did. He stayed for every name and even stayed after to talk to families for 45 minutes. My friend who works for the memorial, even told me it was a new record. @AOC , for the record was there at 7:30 am and also stayed for every name and this brief moment they said was of them laughing was just when she walked up to him and said hello.
When I said hello to him with my daughter he even whispered to me after our hug “hi my friend! Hi Zoe! Sorry I didn’t see you, I’m super focused on the stage right now.” And he was. He listened to every story and every name and was there for our community of lower Manhattan. We appreciate you both.
I hope these gross talking points will end.
Protestors set up a memorial for Renee Good, the mother of three and U.S. Citizen who was shot three times in the face by ICE.
ICE responded by stomping on the memorial candles.
The world knows this unforgettable melody and sings it in numerous languages. “Shchedryk” (Carol of the Bells), inspired by a Ukrainian folk carol, became a global symbol of Christmas.
It was composed by Ukrainian Mykola Leontovych, born on this day in 1877.
Leontovych was a teacher, composer, and choir conductor who dedicated his life to recording and revitalising Ukrainian folk songs.
His music carries a special kind of magic: no matter the language, the melody resonates with joy, hope, and the spirit of celebration.
Leontovych was tragically killed in 1921 by Soviet secret police for defending Ukrainian culture. But his legacy lives on, and "Shchedryk" continues to unite people around the world.
@major_miri@Syddwild@AMCTheatres It was down for every family trying to take their kids into the movie, no one could access their tickets. The staff didn’t know it was going to do that, so they were blindsided too. Terrible all around.
@AMCTheatres App was down right when I was trying to take my family into the showing of Zootopia 2 we had purchased tickets for. Why schedule maintenance right at the release of a major movie? Staff had no idea this was even happening, blindsided them too.
Please - media anchors+journalists - report the truth.
1. Trump got NOTHING from Canada.
2. Trump got NOTHING from Mexico.
3. Trump got NOTHING from Colombia.
He LIED.
He FAILED.
He crashed the stock market for NOTHING.
Screenshot 2 of @AmericanAir having zero sense of urgency or understanding that they are discriminating against legal permanent residents, and causing them to risk their entire travel plans being derailed because they don’t have correct understanding of federal regs.
This is the reply I got from @AmericanAir. Completely missed the point. Green card holders beware, if you fly American they incorrectly require an ESTA to check in with them and you are risking derailing your whole travel plans.
@AmericanAir Sent screenshots in DM! Not sure what you can do but hoping you rectify this issue so that other green card holders are not inconvenienced as well. Very hard to believe that this is not a common issue.
@AmericanAir, you need to correct the errors on your website that impose unnecessary travel requirements. Green card holders do NOT need to apply for ESTA to return to US. Terrible customer service experience.
Words can’t describe how immensely honored I feel to play the mermaid of my dreams, Ariel in Disney’s The Little Mermaid. Come under the sea with me, in theaters May 26, 2023 🧜🏽♀️
@SOruthless_305@SHEIN_official pieces are terrible for the environment, contain lead to boot, and are contributing to global emissions faster than almost any other manufacturer. Not to mention they steal designs from indie designers. #notworthit#slowfashion
