The Celtics’ Jordan Walsh has alopecia. He’s spoken about it. It is an autoimmune disease. Kids get it too. In 2022, Rio Allred killed herself after being bullied. She was 12.
This staff writer for Jezebel blocked me when I called her out for this. If you know her, tell her to Google Rio’s name.

I love this idea. My dad died when I was three and I had to figure out simple things like how to tie a tie and even shave on my own. Please retweet this because I know there are a lot of kids out there who could use some help with day to day life.

Q: Do you plan to attend Sarah's funeral?
TRUMP: I haven't thought about it yet, but it's certainly something I can conceive of. I love West Virginia. You know, I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.

I’ve watched eps 1-3 so far and was genuinely shocked at how entertained I was! I hated season 4, but it feels like the Duffer Brothers intend to go out on a high note. #tvsky #StrangerThings5

Review: 'Stranger Things' stays close to home for final season
