“Maternal instinct” on Netflix is exactly why when ppl start those copycat traits i distance myself. It’s always a hatred/shame for themselves brewing that can turn so much darker.
Major cheat code for life: Master the art of the fresh start. From a bad morning. From a bad interaction. From a missed workout. From a poor decision. The goal isn't to avoid the fall. It's to shorten the time between the fall and the reset. Fast recovery compounds.
@LuxHippie Exactly also, each of my friendships look and feel different. My closest deepest bond is w my oldest friend who I see and talk to the least but she gets the most vulnerable me. We have different lives/circles and give more grace because we know each other so well and respect that
I hate when someone tries to strong arm me into giving them grace. You gotta let me decide that. Don't do something to me and then gaslight me into seeing it from your perspective. A lot of people do that shit and i find it wildly audacious
they started calling out the dads that are in between dead beat & decent. somewhat present but not participating fairly at all-parents. that formerly unmentioned area of fuckery is now being put on blast rightfully so!!!
women speaking about their experiences and processing harm in trusted spaces is not gossip. it’s a form of protection. gossip, in its derogatory sense, is the intentional spreading of lies with malicious intent. don't let anyone conflate the two.
Stay flexible enough to receive. You have not met all the friends life has for you. You haven't touched or tasted all the abundance the world has for you.
Once u stop smoking you will realize just how bad it smells to ppl who don’t smoke & how it can make a social setting irritating cuz its really inconsiderate to enter an establishment smellin like weed. I really didn’t understand until I quit.
No federally mandated paid parental leave, daycare $2k/month for a newborn, can of milk $60, groceries up 20%, can’t afford a home (space) , and can’t go to college. oh and can’t go to the doctor if unemployed. and you fake ass confused.
I have always said this. There is no clinical study I have seen that shows that women are better at multi-tasking.
And there is no evidence of it even anecdotally. Women are just better as giving up career opportunities for domestic work.
We are calling sacrifice a skill.
There’s really not too much a man can do or not do to knock me off of the podium I built for myself. Dont want me fine. Dont like me cool. Cheater, whatever.
I was me before you got here. Was me when u noticed. I’ll be me when u leave.
