if you see me glued to CNN, don't interrupt; I'm willing a positive outcome into being and it's a very hard job.

@MorganRadford It’s crazy how I needed to see this today. 💖

@Chad70140876970 @FranDHexe @Keekeebooks “Well documented” and yet the overwhelming majority of people marry someone close to them in age. Lol okay.

[Asha Lemmie @talemmie]

@FranDHexe @Keekeebooks So they should have gotten married in their 20s if they thought that way. Too bad for them.

@itslaylas He nearly ran me over yesterday. I see no reason for him to be on Mornigside in the first place.

Today, girl activists and I stood outside the UN building calling on leaders to listen to girls and prioritize their demands at the Summit of the Future.

@CatWorkers We love a stylish worker ✨

@CamJohnston This one really hurts.

[Asha Lemmie @talemmie]

@ABC @GMA No! 😭

@jeffery4free @ellegist @SarahFPoetry So maybe those men should marry those women when they’re in that age range instead of waiting until they’re bald and deciding to be picky

[Asha Lemmie @talemmie]

@jeffery4free @ellegist @SarahFPoetry What a strange delusion you harbor that young women want to date much older men when every statistic counters that. It doesn’t practically matter what you want if it’s not reciprocated.

[Asha Lemmie @talemmie]

@jeffery4free @ellegist @SarahFPoetry If only male preferences were the only thing that mattered, that would matter

[Asha Lemmie @talemmie]

@sunbrightskills @ellegist lol no

[Asha Lemmie @talemmie]

@hollowearthterf I’ve said this for years.

@willchamberlain I realize empathy is a foreign concept to you but not everyone struggles with it, hope this helps.

[Asha Lemmie @talemmie]

@0nlyMeez @westerosies This is literally the obvious solution and it frustrates me how the show completely ignores that

[Asha Lemmie @talemmie]

New book baby! 💗

@HouseofDragon Please I’ve never sobbed this hard during even during GoT. I knew it was coming but my heart is broken. Well done.
