The NCAA is banning star D2 cross country runner Mohammed Bati - who works 11 pm - 7 am 5 days a week at an assisted living facility to make ends meet - because the local community came together and raised some funds so he can stay in college. Meanwhile, D1 football players have agents and bidding wars. #Disgraceful
Guy works graveyard shifts at an assisted living center to pay tuition, places 2nd in the country at the NCAA D3 Cross Country National Championship, and even makes the Olympic marathon trials with a 2:12. NCAA boots him because a community fundraiser helps him with tuition.
A bowl game is a great opportunity to showcase not just the football team, but also the university as a whole to the entire country. Wonderful to see Georgia Tech making the most of the opportunity.

This time between December 15 and January 2 is such a drag because why are we even working? We should collectively shut down the world for 3 weeks to read books with tea or wine next to a fireplace.
Happy birthday, Jane Austen! 🎂🩷 250 years and we're still not over Elizabeth Bennet, Mr. Darcy, & one of the best opening lines in all of literature

Last Friday , I walked over with his favourite meatloaf, but the porch was empty. The lights were off. My stomach dropped. I knocked, but there was no answer. Later that night, an ambulance came and went silently; he had passed away in his sleep during his afternoon nap.
When his niece came to clear out the house a few days later, she walked over to my driveway holding a sealed envelope. 'He left this on the nightstand,' she told me, looking confused. 'It just says For the Dinner Lady.'
Inside was a note: 'My Mary used to say that grief is just love with nowhere to go. Thank you for giving my love a place to land for twenty minutes every night. I’m ready to go see her now. Don’t worry about the extra plate.'
True humanity isn't about grand gestures, but the quiet consistency of showing up. Never underestimate the power of a warm meal to give someone's love a place to land
Yup. He’s up to 11 pounds. They have to transfer him to another hospital for because the current hospital he’s at cannot meet his complex needs. The family is 100% responsible for the cost even tho the state forced them to keep that poor woman “alive” as a human incubator.
No news outlet is covering this, you know why? Because the fucking experiment on a black woman’s body has FAILED miserably. The only updates are from grandma’s go fund me. They let that woman die for a clump of cells (she was only 9 weeks pregnant at the time) that’s not even doing ok 6 months later. 6 months is a long time to be in nicu!
Adriana Smith is her name. I am so sorry the state did this to you. You were a 30 year old nurse with a kid who was already here who needed you. The state failed you, the very hospital that you worked at who was so supposed to help you failed you…everybody failed you.
