my dad would have been 73 today 🤍

Tomorrow Armenia goes to polls. One of the candidates hoping to be elected Prime Minister is Artak Sargsyan of Kochari National Revival and Awakening of the Nation Party. Long time ago, he was in Kenya as Artur Margaryan.

Decades of growth destroyed in minutes. Giant lobelias, some of the rarest alpine plants are being damaged. This is heartbreaking for Kenya’s natural heritage. @KWSKenya @Kenya_Forestry please step in. The destruction of giant lobelias is unacceptable.

I met a schoolmate this week who is now a relief worker in northern Kenya. He told me something fascinating; something that haunts me since then. "Do you know how we measure severity of hunger in pastoral nomadic communities? We count number of mothers who have died. The more mothers dying of hunger the greater the famine. Among the pastoralists, the womenfolk are trained from infancy to repress hunger; while men are allowed to 'act on their hunger' by raiding a neighbours' cattle. There is a piece of cloth women are given before marriage for tying their stomachs to gird themselves against hunger. Girls and women are the last ones to eat - they only eat after the menfolk have finished eating. Paradoxically, it is women who are least vulnerable to hunger by death. They are accustomed to extreme hunger and have devised various mechanisms for coping." Wow !

Calf shower for Mpuuga-Janet 🥰🥰🥰🥰

My son is 3. He has a best friend named Marcus from daycare. Marcus's dad and I nod at each other during pickup. That's our whole relationship. Last Wednesday he texts me: "Marcus won't stop asking about Eli. Saturday work?" I say sure. He picks Eli up at 10. By 11 I'm on the couch. Not doing anything. Just. Sitting. I didn't know I missed sitting. Noon I eat a full meal. Hot. At the table. No one grabbed anything off my plate. 2pm my wife asks what I want to do. I didn't have an answer. I forgot I got to have one. Marcus's dad texts at 5: "They're good. Eating now." Cool. Great. Perfect. 7:45 he calls. "Marcus is losing his mind about Eli leaving. Sleepover?" I said yes so fast I scared myself. Drove home. Stopped for gas I didn't need. Just stood outside in the parking lot for a minute. Went inside. Told my wife. She had already opened a bottle of wine. We watched two full movies. Nobody woke us up at 6am. I laid in bed until 8:47 just because I could. Marcus's dad drops Eli off Sunday. Eli walks in, looks at me once, and goes straight to his toys. Didn't ask where I'd been. Didn't care. Bro same.
