Y'all...this year's spelling bee was LIT. Two desi kids winning again! One of them was Telugu, which was cool. All of them kept dabbing for some reason which was absolutely delightful.

And, ohmygod, Nihar is savage, I felt a liitle bad for Jairam but I also want to adopt Nihar? He did the Dez! They nicknamed him Nihar "The Machine"! He kept trolling Jairam!

I'm Indian and I've been diagnosed just a few months ago...my family doesn't really believe there is such a thing as ADHD, and it is so emotionally draining. I actually live in India, so I'm not a minority, but the conversations around mental illness here is SO awful, and the meds available so limited that it can be incredibly stifling.

Throughout my childhood (usually male shrinks) would refuse to diagnose me with ADHD because I wasn't hyper but inattentive. I was in tears by the end of this piece - I really, REALLY connected to it

If John Boyega were your boyfriend, your mother would love him to the point of always pinching his cheeks when the two of you come to visit. “Oh my God!” you’d hiss, mortified. John would find it hilarious and kind of sweet, and give your mom a hug every time.

*swoooons* Guys who are good with moms are the best.

(i know these aren't technically "factual" and "without primary sources" but this is real and John Boyega is definitely a 100% amazing with mothers.)
