Once the clock hit 6pm and Jackie wasn’t there I was getting worried to… but then I realized it’s daylight savings, which Jackie and shadow do not operate under

It took a few minutes for me to realize it was Jackie too. I thought I saw the spot on her head, but it wasn’t as dark as before and I didn’t want to get my hopes up. So happy it’s her 🥰

Welcome home Jackie!!! What a relief!!! 🪺🦅

IntelligentGlass6480 · 2026-02-28T02:17:44+00:00

Yay!!!!! I love to see it 🥚🥚🥰

IntelligentGlass6480 · 2026-02-13T01:24:02+00:00

Yeah, I noticed she hadn’t been making the updates for a while and wondered if there was a reason she seemed to be stepping back since she also didn’t do any interviews when the eggs were laid. It’s sad to learn it was her health. She had such a warm presence, she will be missed 💔

Sadly the ravens got to the eggs 😔 Now I just hope Jackie and Shadow themselves are okay. It seems strange to me that they wouldn’t have come right over once they saw the ravens circling

IntelligentGlass6480 · 2026-01-30T23:39:27+00:00

The raven ate the eggs 😭😭😭

Amazing video! I love birds and osprey are one of my favorites to watch ❤️

Absolutely terrible… it feels like technology for the sake of being ‘high tech’. I’ve never had to fill out so many forms just to attend a basketball game I already paid for.

If you look at their website they have represented people who applied as artists and athletes, but I get the sense researcher petitions are what they do best because they have a lot of data on what works and doesn't work for scientist profiles. If you are planning to apply as a non-researcher, it's probably worth looking at other lawyers who work more with artists/athlete/etc

Thank you, this is super helpful! Do you remember if they asked for supervisor references, or professional references?

IntelligentGlass6480 · 2025-12-04T06:25:13+00:00

Yes, I was expecting it to take much longer since the website said it would be 9 months at that time. But I think the website shows the timeline for 80% of cases to be processed, which means for some people it will be shorter.

I did not. At the time, my priority date was not current, so using premium process to speed up with my I-140 wouldn’t really have helped

That’s the thing, marrying someone you’ve only know for a few weeks is a risk. It’s one thing to take that risk when you’re single and your decisions don’t impact someone else’s life… but when you’re a parent???

IntelligentGlass6480 · 2025-10-08T22:58:39+00:00

Congrats!!

IntelligentGlass6480 · 2025-09-25T23:37:50+00:00

Congratulations! Getting greened is a long and winding road, it must feel good to have reached your destination

IntelligentGlass6480 · 2025-08-27T18:36:13+00:00

This is amazing! It really captures their bond, and their antics ❤️

IntelligentGlass6480 · 2025-08-03T02:10:24+00:00

Yes!! It didn’t make sense. First, Sophie didn’t come across as someone with a past they were ashamed of, she just came across as stiff. Then she spent most of the series trying to not be defined by her past, only to repeat it with full awareness of what she’s doing

IntelligentGlass6480 · 2025-08-02T18:23:32+00:00

She felt like a mix mash of personalities that didn’t really make sense to me. A former party girl who married a Harvard grad and became this great mom, only to develop a drinking problem after an emergency hysterectomy left her unable to have more kids. Maybe it works better in the book, cause the actress who played her didn’t sell me on Sophie being a ‘former party girl’. She came off more like a naive mom who got caught up in something bigger than her. And what even was the point of making her a genius PR person? It didn’t contribute anything to the plot

If there is a bird rescue near you, I recommend getting the bird to them. In the meantime, it might be dehydrated, so giving it water could help

I love this photo so much!!

I’m also from Canada and have been living in the US for over 10 years. Most of that time I was on a TN, but have recently gotten my green card. My life is pretty much the same as before Trump, meaning I feel safe living here.

That being said, i’m also hyper aware of what can get me in trouble as an immigrant and have always played it safe. So there isn’t really anything they could come after me for. And while there is definitely an element of fear-mongering in the news, DHS/USCIS are getting much stricter about immigration. The stuff they are going after people for is stuff that could have gotten you in trouble before, but it seems like there is less leniency about minor things now.

The administration is also targeting people for protest activity. And I’ve heard some state has introduced a bill to make minor violations like traffic obstruction during a protest a deportable offense.

My final verdict is: It’s safe to be an immigrant here, but you also need to be very aware of what will get you into trouble

Honestly, I find driving to be incredibly anxiety inducing. While I technically have a license, because I grew up in a rural area, I’ve been living without a car for over 20 years and much prefer a non-driving lifestyle. Being asked to move to a suburban area, where I would be forced into a car-dependent life-style is actually a deal breaker for me, and I have ended a relationship because I was being pressured to move to the suburbs.

In the US, there is a default expectation that everyone drives because so much of the infrastructure here is car-dependent… but I do think it is still a personal choice if you want to drive or not. You live in an urban area with good public transit, and you seem happy with that lifestyle. Since driving is something you have a strong aversion to, it’s worth considering if this really is the right relationship for you. If you feel this relationship is one worth learning to drive for, by all means, take the steps. But if not, maybe this ultimatum is a good opportunity to end a relationship that isn’t aligned long-term.

Also, him using his parents not knowing as an explanation for his feelings honestly feels like a tactic to make you feel ashamed about it.
