I think it’s pretty cruel that women have such a short window to have kids. Like what if you marry the wrong person and then a global pandemic happens and you get really sick and now you’re ready to go but you’re 36 and single? Like where is the room for error
I just drove by a retirement community in Baltimore. Residents are gathered outside wearing keffiyehs, waving Palestinian flags. Not a huge crowd but out of frame they stretch the block. Heartwarming!
These beautiful Armenian students spoke about the Armenian Genocide, Artsakh, Jerusalem, and Armenian-Palestinian solidarities tonight at Columbia’s Gaza Solidarity Encampment.
My goal when I talk on the phone with a random customer service representative is simple, all I want to do is be so friendly that they remember me forever and often recall this experience for the rest of their life as one of the most pleasant five minutes they ever endured.
It only took me a second to take in what Diaspora Armenians have been saying for 109 years (now). It was after crossing the Hakary bridge on 25 Sep. 2023. After the NK/Artsakh blockade & it's tragic end.
It was like being hit by a police electric shocker.
