Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 31/12/2024This has been such a strange year. I lost my grandmother at the start of it and witnessed someone close to me go through a year of cancer treatment. I’m in a space now where I don’t know how to feel or expect. It’s not the best feeling in the world but I’m grateful to have some time to sit with it… 040

Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 22/11/2024Established my dominance this morning by staring a rat down on the subway platform and making it return to its rightful place on the tracks. Today is gonna be great! 010
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 18/10/2023Post brought to you by the person who I’ve dubbed “Carroll Gardens” after saying the F train platform someone was asking about did not go to Coney Island because it was heading to Carroll Gardens…… 000
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 18/10/2023PSA to anyone, especially if you’ve been living in NYC for a year or less: It’s absolutely okay to say “you know what, I’m not sure” if someone asks you for subway directions that you are indeed, unsure of… 110

Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 22/07/2023I can say this with my whole chest, at my big age: The Barbie movie was so perfect to me 🥹 000
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 19/07/2023A mosquito got into the house last night and now my kid has *11* mosquito bites. Now I’m wondering exactly how many mosquitoes were in here or if that one bug was just an overachiever…. 020
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 17/07/2023I’m on a flight, that’s finally landed after being delayed for 3 hours, in FLORIDA, and people keep getting up while the plane is still taxiing, making the crew have to stop and I’m at my wits end and may have to scream at some adult ass adults… 110
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 09/07/2023This is why I can’t use it. I’m not trying to spend all my time muting or blocking people I don’t follow and don’t want to see 😩 000
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 05/07/2023I’m stuck between what the hell did I just read, and ain’t no way that’s a real story from a nonfiction book that was published, that some people bought and has a movie. Ain’t no way…. 010
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 22/06/2023The only hill I will probably die on is that teachers deserve the world… 011
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 16/06/2023Would really love folks to stop amplifying/bringing to my timeline people with truly harmful, shitty views. You’re giving them visibility and annoying me at the same damn time… 000
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 14/06/2023I’ve been up since 1:30 this morning and have to be at work today… 240
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 13/06/2023Also, when I post a picture with just the phrase “you know what” this is almost always my expression when I post… 010
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 11/06/2023After spending an hour washing, conditioning and detangling my hair, I can understand why people decide to take clippers to their heads for a smooth shave. I’m exhausted… 240

Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 31/05/2023Just realized the awful mom from Succession is also the awful mom on Ted Lasso. What a way to be typecast… 010
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 23/05/2023My least favorite New York personality is the performative parent on the subway. Do I need a full demonstration of how you parent Rose and Succulent at 8 am in a packed subway car? I assure you, I do not… 010
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 22/05/2023My most untrustworthy trait is that I don’t care for French fries. 🤷🏾♀️ 000

Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 14/05/2023Stormzy, Big for your boots specifically but both albums, Heavy Is The Head and Gang Signs & Prayer do the trick… 010
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 14/05/2023The notion of “civility” is probably one of the most harmful things that exists. It gives people an excuse to let shit behavior slide instead of tackling it as it should be. Very, very dangerous 010
Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 14/05/2023Forgot to put my phone on dnd last night and got woken up this morning by relentless Mother’s Day texts, ruining the one thing I wanted for today which was to sleep in…. 020

Natiba @natiba.bsky.social · 13/05/2023One of my favorite things to do as a parent is to introduce my little to different genres of music and artists.
