Layma

It’s only fitting that I’m wearing an afghan dress for an event and an older Afghan man who drives Uber picks me up and takes me to the event blasting Haidar Salim. It feels like a poetic coincidence (rather than statistically highly probable).

These billboards line the streets around Albuquerque, New Mexico.

I miss being overseas.

Sometimes people see you. Today I was called a tiny turtle.

Why would I have children when I’m still taking care of little layma?

The White House, not even DHS, the White House itself apparently, is directly deciding which permanent residents should be detained and deported based on their political speech.

If this doesn’t scare you about the state of our democracy and liberties, I don’t know what will.

I know love. I hope, but am pessimistic, because of what we have seen in the last month, that the downfall of the U.S. doesn’t impact anyone else but us.

I’m looking forward to the day I think you’re ugly.

Is my therapist my best friend? Lol

Only a man who knows more than 3 languages can win my heart.

Love is so silly.

I probably have 10 or less years with my parents left. Should I just move back to California now?

Zelenskiy Says He Would Be Ready to Quit for Sake of Ukraine Peace Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said he would be ready to step down if it were to guarantee peace to his war-torn country.

President Zelenskiy said he would happily trade his presidency for Ukraine’s NATO membership if such an offer was made.

If I ethically could love you, I would.

Loving you was easy, leaving was the hard part.

The art of detachment means you have learned that nothing belongs to to you and it never did.

I’m in the mood of deleting my entire social media footprint, but I also know it’s how people find you and your credibility. Existential SOS.

Me too!!

We fall in love with people whose darkness we recognize.

Big swings, big misses: DOGE struggles to back up its outsized claims Elon Musk and President Donald Trump continue to tout their cost-cutting and fraud-finding efforts, but high-profile claims aren't holding up to scrutiny.

Under Trump’s Mass Deportation Plan, Some Migrants Are Being Sent to Panama The administration has asked Panama to take in hundreds of people who can’t easily be sent back to their countries. Many say they are in danger.

"A woman clawed a latchless window in an attempt to escape. When she noticed journalists below, she held up a paper reading “Afghan.” She made motions indicating an airplane, then her head falling off. The message seemed clear: A flight home meant death." nytimes.com/2025/02/18/w...

Young people are being ‘priced out of nightlife’ Turns out Gen Z aren’t boring – we’re just poor ❤️

'We've lost a partner and a friend': Ukrainians somber as U.S. partnership disintegrates Ukrainians “couldn’t cope without American weapons and support,” Yuliya Antonyuk, a 42-year-old real estate agent told NBC News.

“It is very sad because we feel we’ve lost a partner and a friend."

Civilians in hard-hit Ukrainian city of Kharkiv say they are feeling increasingly abandoned by the U.S. as President Trump escalates attacks on their wartime leader President Zelenskyy.

Please don’t ask me how old I am. I don’t identify with an age.

It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.
