A man beat, tortured, and nearly killed an 86 year old woman — literally destroyed what remains of her life — and his justification is that he thought she was a pedophile. Transphobia at its core is about justifying male violence toward women. They’ll tell you it’s the opposite.

Florida rejects textbooks that educate kids on Holocaust.😳

This is what modern day fascism looks like.

Reminder: the main reason extremists would want to ban teaching about a past atrocity is to make it easier to enable that atrocity in the future. Smh.

calmest female ever but watch how you speak to me.

[aeia @badboyrepublic]

I immediately go silent when something upsets me. it's a coping mechanism I have developed over time. instead of expressing my anger or frustration, I simply withdraw and try to process my emotions in private. I prefer handling my problems on my own.

This is too much. He just turned six. It was his birthday. And now he is an orphan. He doesn’t even have his little brother anymore. My God.

“you can survive a mass shooting: if you’re prepared.” how is this acceptable? are we just supposed to be paranoid & hyper alert every time we leave the house? supposed to train our children to do the same? train kids to come up with a fighting strategy instead of banning guns?

[LOLO👸🤍 @Nazannwa]

No matter how much you love someone, if you don't love them in their love language, they might never feel loved.
Appreciate your gestures, YES. But they'll see it as you simply being KIND and not LOVING them.

Accept that you don’t have the energy for certain things anymore. Either it’s changed or you’ve changed.

Stop trying to understand why people have hurt you, and start accepting the fact that they’ve done it. They’ve betrayed you. They’ve disrespected you and their actions have said “fuck you.” Stop dwelling on why they did it and start moving on. It has to do with THEM, not you.

if a girl is being a “cockblock” for her friends 95% chance they have a signal and the girl ur talking to didn’t want you!!

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

Romantic relationships can become a parent-child relationship if we aren’t aware.

This creates resentment.

We aren’t meant to parent a partner.

We aren’t meant to watch over them to make sure they complete tasks.

We aren’t meant to have to check in with a partner for permission on a daily basis.

Intimacy comes from two equals, evolving together as adults.

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

The saddest part of healing is that we leave people behind.

The most beautiful part of healing is that we open space for new people to enter.

I think one of the healthiest things I’ve ever learned is that you should allow others to reintroduce themselves to you, even your closest friends. Give people space to become who they are without assuming you know who they are just bc you’ve been friends/family for years
