Thailand is not safe — a reason I left nearly ten years ago despite loving the country. Road traffic deaths are among the world’s highest, air pollution is severe, and its construction sector often cuts corners and undervalues safety, placing workers' lives and public safety at constant risk.

A homecoming: Yaman’s journey of belonging between İstanbul and Aleppo “Syria is entering a completely new phase in every sense. It’s challenging, both for individuals and the government. But Syrians are optimistic, and I see on social media how motivated they are now—in a way that wasn’t possible under Assad’s regime," says Yaman, one of the many Syrians contemplating returning home a year after the regime change. 🗞️ Tara Milutis bianet.org/haber/a-homeco…

Commemorating the anniversary of the fall of the Assad regime, my story for @bianet_eng on Yaman—a 31 year old refugee from Aleppo navigating displacement, identity, and the possibility of returning home to Syria after more than a decade away. @bianet_org bianet.org/haber/a-homeco…

Ceiling frescoes at Chaldean Catholic Church in Beyoğlu, İstanbul. The #ChaldeanChurch traces its origins to the early Christian communities in the Middle East, particularly Iraq, and the liturgies remain in classical Syriac to this day. #CatholicIstanbul #MiddleEastChristianity

@phillip_ratliff @nytimes I think you've got a chance!

@taramilutis @nytimes I sent a news tip to the NY Times that I’d welcome reading an expose’ on the wax that seals toilet pipes. Fingers crossed.

This is proof that New Yorkers (and @nytimes readers) are under some form of mass delirium/Stockholm Syndrome. nytimes.com/2025/08/13/art…

@FoxyManatee @nytimes Yes, it is, bizarrely, a super elitist article!!

@taramilutis @nytimes I suppose that, despite being a newspaper famous around the globe, the writers can’t quite shake off the air of provincialism “The City” is famous for. “This is a local article for local readers: there’s nothing for you here!”

@fopminui It's called dignity.

@zedonarrival Someone needs to report this/her to animal protection and the police!

if anyone cares about local drama, three bunnies were dumped in prospect park and, after cross examining their fur colors, people found out they were the same ones used by anna delvey’s team for her photoshoot 😭

@JonathanACBrown Molokhia is delicious!! At least the Yemeni version.

This is very difficult for me say. As many know, I’ve long and courageously spoken out, despite the consequences, on the topic of Egyptian food, how it’s a blight on humanity and a major cause of depression (FYI: here is the section on food from Lonely Planet 1999 ed.). But there has been a *major change* in the Egyptian food scene. I was recently there, and the food was EXCELLENT at every single place I ate. The bread, aysh baladi, which was long dry and flavorless, was fresh and soft every time I ate it. God be praised.

@immasiddx This is what the Japanese brand Muji started out as, Muji meaning "no brand". Their stores in Tokyo in the 1990s were spartan and only sold essentials. @muji_net

Imagine a minimal store named “Store” that sells nothing but products with no branding whatsoever.

@NiallHarbison He is adorable!! 💕

Shaggy says he’s very sorry for making a fuss about being caught on the streets. He was just very scared. He is going to stay with us for good now and get a forever home. We haven’t even advertised him and he already has inquiries (5/6)

5 days ago he was alone on the streets and in agony. Shaggy thought he was fighting for his life here as he’d never known a kind human. Safe to say that has all changed now… (1/6) 🧵
