Children suffering from malnutrition in Gaza will be stunted for life, "if they survive,"

says. "It's a painful, painful death for children."
In maternity wards, "babies don't even have the energy to cry. It's a devastating thing to see," she says.
Good morning, the gap between the person you are and the best version of yourself can only be bridged by you doing the work. Show up for yourself today.
There are Palestinian babies in the future, there are Congolese babies in the future, there are Sudanese babies in the future. We must fervently believe this.
You’re not meant to participate in every conversation because you’re not a member of every community. Not everyday thought leader, sometimes be quiet and learn something.

I think any man with 8 kids and not one in his arms or within eyesight should be publicly whipped until he returns home to them kids. Tf are you doing outside? Go change a goddamn diaper, Abraham.
This is the home of Joseph Morrison, one of the Michigan men recently arrested for his plot to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.
Can we acknowledge that maybe economic circumstances play a role in radicalizing people?
At this point in my life, all I desire from my partners is softness and grace. Softness so that I can be soft too, grace so that I can find my way back when life makes softness difficult. Everything else is mutable.
To quote a woman on here, don’t remember who, all men benefit from the actions of shitty men. It lowers the bar so that you’re consistently grateful for them just being barely decent human beings instead of demanding more from them.
Sola Sobowale came from the dust to act King of Boys & since then, the relationship with Kemi Adetiiba has been deep.
For her (at her age) to honour bridal shower that Snapchat babes take for granted, she’s truly the mummy of Nollywood.
Oh Mummy Sola, hug me ❤️
Every single time I’ve ever been in danger it’s women who’ve protected me and it’s women who’ve saved my life. Women are the protectors and providers yall pretend to be.
I cannot stress this enough: This is not normal behaviour. Siblings don’t talk about one another like this, do not let anybody normalise this for you. This is abusive behaviour and it needs to be checked asap.
Kids are 100% a communal trust. Yoruba people have a saying that translates to “4 eyes have birth to the child but it takes many eyes to keep watch over them”. No child is meant to be raised by only two people, I will die on this hill.
I really do feel like kids is partially all our responsibility. thats why i tell any kid to head to school, stop playin in the street, stop
fighting. anything I’d want someone to tell my kids.
I blocked a man cos on our 1st date, he joked that I should be thin by now if I was truly consistently working out for 5 months.
I told him not everyone wants to be thin, he apologized but I already know what the future will be with someone like that.
I’ve been there, blocked.
It’s not our fault that the English language is so thoroughly inadequate that we have to reach outside of the average lexicon to articulate what our native languages are capable of, with ease. Keep up 🫶🏿

No one uses it in spoken English. It's one of those words like "burgeoning" that people only use when they're writing and want to sound clever.
Men from +234 Twitter will never lack audacity. They may lack common sense, a basic grasp of history, they may even lack a modicum of self awareness and the satisfaction of a personal sense of accomplishment. But they will never, ever lack audacity.
Y’all. I’m an auntie of 3. It’s just that Aunties means Jennifer Lewis nem to me so this was funny. Twitter for Mature Adults, pls take the stick out of your sense of humour 🫶🏿
Yeah, without the adulation. Nigerian food is incredibly labour intensive which is why the conversation about making food always makes me laugh. Abbreviating our cooking processes liberates women in ways that can transform a society.
One time I visited a prospective family in law, while they were cooking in the kitchen I was cancelling bottles of Guinness in the living room. Appaz that was the wrong thing to do but they failed my test too bc how can you ask a guest to do physical labour for you? Uncouth.
I think we vastly underestimate how much time it take to learn things. Hard things take a long time to master, stop setting unrealistic expectations for yourself and do the work.

Not the same thing and Black people weren’t posing with skittles and tea, just like Black people aren’t the ones posting pictures of themselves kneeling on people’s necks in a “challenge”.
Yo, I stopped drinking completely for Ramadan and I’d been reducing it entirely since before that. I’m here to report that my tolerance has absolutely disappeared.
Y’all. I was 20 minutes into reading someone’s code and I realised that…I got it. Like, I understood what was supposed to be happening. It feels like magic still 😭
Y’all. Wayfair isn’t mailing trafficked children in furniture boxes. The wire in your mask has nothing to do with 5G. 5G has nothing to do with coronavirus. Please read peer reviewed journal and stop getting your scientific theory from forward you get on WhatsApp.
The paradox of being a woman is that you’re somehow responsible for all of the labour that needs to be done and simultaneously too weak to be in charge or get any credit for your labour. This is also known as a scam.
so we've been wondering why our daughter insists on inserting the short end of the bendy straw into the juice carton. today, she explained her reasoning
Tech Twitter: 2019 is almost blessedly dead.
What happened this year that you were proud of, or that's left you with hope for 2020?
RT for reach? Would love to see what positive things happened
She is.
Plus that lady held a sale on Blue Ivy's birthday and saw an uptick in traffic after Blue Ivy's birth AND most importantly, they're tryna trademark "Blue Ivy Carter".
Folks who come from humble beginnings, how do you rid yourself of your money anxiety? From the fear of the balance not balancing to the fear of the rug being pulled out from under you.
