This is a good piece. I always feel so helpless looking at images like this, and reading articles about Syria. My new job is related to this and I hope I can handle it. I want to do more than just cry over pictures of babies.

My first ever car was an ‘01 Acura Integra. Had it for two years in college until I switched over to the M3.

There’s a reason why she nabbed 75% of the Muslim vote in the primary.

Dammit Cheryl it takes 10 minutes to make your own!

Refugees who are already in America are walking through the cold and snow to seek asylum in Canada. Some of them lost fingers due to frostbite.

Yep, isn’t it amazing that the African-American community were the only group that can keep its head held up high after this election and the Dems are still putting their issues in the backburner.

We’re keeping them in Istanbul (despite the expenses) because we’re trying to schedule appointments with consulates from other countries and any NGOs who might help.
