A billion dollars is not earned. You steal it. Nobody works a billion times harder than a nurse, a teacher, or a farmer. That money comes from underpaying the people who actually did the work. Stop worshipping hoarders who are just really good at wage theft.

SERIOUS QUESTION: You don’t find it weird that not a single billionaire wants to end world poverty ?? Doesn’t it strike you as bizarre that no one with that kind of wealth wants to be the hero who actually solves the world’s biggest problems when they literally could ?? Isn’t that suspicious ??

Men did not build a world that called women inferior because women were powerless.

They built it because women had forms of power that could not be taken from them cleanly: intuition, social intelligence, sexual selectivity, birth, emotional range, the ability to create life and then organise life around it.

So they made those gifts look unstable. Irrational. Dirty. Dangerous. They turned female instinct into hysteria, female desire into shame, female standards into cruelty, and female creation into duty.

That is how you control what you envy.

You do not have to destroy it. You just convince her to distrust it.

We’re obsessed with the idea that poor people might take more than they need, but we never question why the super rich are never satisfied with what they already have.

Today my toddler asked me to close my eyes then she proceeded to pry open one of them and sneeze directly into it.

2024: A terrible blur anchored by the miracle of you

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

Helicopter parenting creates a lack of confidence. One of the greatest skills we can learn is: how to be disappointed and upset. Emotions don’t need to be fixed. Resilience comes when we’re trusted to find solutions to our own problems.

We’re all children in adult bodies wanting to be loved— doing the best we can.

Idk why but this hit me really hard and I’ve been staring at it for a couple minutes.

fear of communication is trauma based. you either feel like your voice doesn’t matter, you think expressing how you feel is going to bring negative consequences, or you’re used to being silenced or invalidated
