Thank you @kristina_kaspa for sharing accounts of infertility and loss that are more than miracle conceptions and "maintaining hope" narratives.

[Kristina Kasparian, PhD @kristina_kaspa]

I'm beyond honored to be included in @rgay's Emerging Writer Series with WOMB, my essay about surrogacy and the decision that disappointed our never-give-up culture but ultimately saved my life. Thank you
@rgay and @megpillow for your trust + edits!

Anyone else get angry at their past selves for not planning better for their future selves? Why did last week's Laura not get this chapter done on time? Now it's somehow become present Laura's problem. All Lauras are collectively not pleased about this.

[Laura Brunner McCann @laurabrunner]

@r_bransky Congrats!!!

"The Choctaws, who had only recently arrived over the ruinous 'trail of tears and death' to what is now Oklahoma, took up a donation and collected over $5,000 (in today’s money) to support the Irish during the Potato Famine."👆The relationship between Choctaw Nation and the Irish

[ChoctawNationOK @choctawnationOK]

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! These beautiful shots were captured by 2022 Choctaw-Ireland Scholarship recipient Aurianna Palmer.

The connection between the Choctaw and Irish people dates all the way back to the 1800’s. Learn more about this connection at https://t.co/Y5GErNHjG2.
