I went into a Boston bar last night to watch the footy and there was a young guy from the Scotland sat at the bar, drinking and crying. I asked him what was up and he said, 'It's my 21st and I'm sat here all on my own.'
I felt sorry for him so I bought him a pint.
He took a few gulps and said, 'Cheers.that's my 22nd’

This Father’s Day, Jacob Flickinger’s 18-month-old son still doesn’t have his dad.
IDF strikes killed the Canadian-American aid worker while he was cooking meals for starving families in Gaza with World Central Kitchen.
The world barely blinked.
“he has spent his whole life playing it safe, to survive. as a result, he raised children who had the ability to play it less safe, and thrive.” while he’s wearing an italy jersey and she’s wearing a jersey that says “free iran” oh i’m sobbing
For those of you who don’t know, he grew up in extreme poverty, used to practice with rocks, then at 17 left his nomadic family and ventured to Tehran alone (without his father’s support), was homeless camping outside one of the soccer team camps until someone gave him a chance.
What a man.
At the mall urgently trying to find the Pottery Barn bc the Uber is waiting for us there. Friend shouts at me “you’re a white woman! You should know where the pottery barn is” and I swear to god an older white lady stepped out of the shadows behind us and said “follow me”
Just passed a big group of teens walking into Forest Hills Station singing No Scotland No Party and one of them turned to the others and said, “That’s how you summon them.”
I mean, not really.
We hope we win as it would be really, really funny if we won a sport most of us don't really care about while we're hosting the world cup AND during our 250th birthday... But if we lose it's fine too.
Y'all are way more invested in us losing than we are invested in us winning. It's a game, we're just having fun and are pleasantly surprised we're winning as much as we are.
my dad was 54/my mom was 45 when they adopted me (2), my older sister (9) and my younger sister (>1). they are both alive (🙏) and many of my peers (i’m 30) have lost their parents already. you actually never fucking know!!!
