Kids are wild because what do you mean I had the most traumatizing therapy session of the year and my 15 year old texts me "What's your favorite dead nation? I think mine is whatever was in the Songhai nation."

WHY I WON'T LEAVE THE US TO FALL. Glad I checked for typos. 😮‍💨

I finally found the words to articulate why I leave the US to fall and whatever. My mother crossed an ocean to be here and give me a better opportunity than she had, you think I'm going to spit in the face of her sacrifice?
