Parents are bringing back the landline Looking to steer kids away from screens and social media, more families are going analog.

As more parents steer their children away from screens and social media, the landline phone β€” a mainstay of Gen X- and millennial-generation childhoods β€” is having a renaissance.

Weird that your idea of vacation isn’t flying to California and baking me things. 🀨

Unfortunately I think literally everything is a sign from God so this one could either be:

A. You do not need to be dating rn.

B. You are meant to stay in Kenya.

Which?

I decided to go out w a random guy in Kenya on my last day and on my way back there was a storm that flooded the expressway and I almost missed my flight 😭 I just know the rest of my family told my grandma already, and I bet it will be the first thing she brings up when I see her tomorrow πŸ’€

I'm thought provoking in the sense I'm constantly making you think "what the fuck".

Swahili and German are the two I want to learn. I wish I had more of an interest in learning Spanish bc it’s by far the most useful and I have many friends I can speak to in Spanish but I just want to learn the others more 😩

I’m so mad bc I started studying Swahili during the pandemic when we all had all the time in the world and of course I fell off, and now five years later I go to Kenya and can’t speak Swahili to people πŸ₯Ί I have to learn for when I go back. I’m sick of being monolingual!!!

#4: Mere steps away, an automated boarding pass screening

#5: Standard TSA w shoes off this time

#6: Another passport & boarding pass screening

#7: I kid you not, three steps away from the last one, yet another passport & boarding pass screening

#8: Randomly selected bag check (I was spared πŸ™πŸΎ)

Checkpoint #1: about 10 mins before you reach the terminal you get out, go through metal detectors, & your driver meets you on the other side. You don’t need to take your luggage out the car.

#2: Standard TSA but you don’t take your shoes off

#3: Passport and boarding pass screening

How many checkpoints do you think I had to go through to board my flight at the Nairobi airport? I’ll let y’all guess then I’ll tell you the answer when I land in Paris

A bus of Bronx middle schoolers pulled up to the Capitol this morning for a long-planned field trip just a few hours after the government shut down.

All Capitol tours were cancelled as the guides can’t work in shutdown.

So I escorted them in myself and gave them a personal tour. They were great!
