8 month old baby hearing his mother’s voice for the first time with cochlear implant

This is the most beautiful thing ever.

thank you science 

this post always bothers me without fail

I just….

that’s a major operation and change in the infant’s life and they can’t even make the decision themselves to have it or not.

idk I just think things like that should wait until the child is at least old enough to say that it’s something they want.

possibly the worst reblog comment I have ever seen on tumblr

I hope you drown in the bath

you know, I’m glad my parents waited till I was old enough to make the decision of whether or not I wanted to be deaf

are you stupid? wait, that’s obvious, never mind

Galcos Soda Pop Stop is a place I need to visit.

John Nese is the proprietor of Galcos Soda Pop Stop in LA. His father ran it as a grocery store, and when the time came for John to take charge, he decided to convert it into the ultimate soda-lovers destination. About 500 pops line the shelves, sourced lovingly by John from around the world. John has made it his mission to keep small soda-makers afloat and help them find their consumers. Galcos also acts as a distributor for restaurants and bars along the West Coast, spreading the gospel of soda made with cane sugar (no high-fructose corn syrup if John can avoid it).

Galcos Soda Pop Stop is a store in Los Angeles that only sells soda pop, only in glass bottles. He almost exclusively sells obscure, independent, family-owned brands without high fructose corn syrup and is one of the cutest, happiest people I’ve ever seen. I absolutely need to visit this place and go soda shopping and then give him a high five for making a little boy like me’s dream come true!

Ellen DeGeneres reflects on coming-out episode, 15 years later.

We’ve been with you all the way on this journey and it’s so special seeing you go through all the milestones knowing what you’ve been through.. For me, it’s an absolute honor to stand behind you and say that I’m your fan! And I’m so proud of that!
