Motherhood is a Mirror

@yungmedusa Wow! I'm so glad things worked out better than you expected. How did you feel seeing the picture? Did you learn anything new about your family/family member?

Smartphones and reduced socialisation a big reason for this I believe

Kids are now glued to devices and it results in increased isolation, followed by lower alcohol consumption

Alcohol was always consumed out and about at parties, gatherings etc so once kids stop going to those, the drinking will go down

I’m not saying that people should drink more - but it’s clear smartphones and screens are the new drug of choice

Beyond the musings and pampering, mothers deserve constant support that caters for their evolution, that soothes the endless worry of not doing or being enough and they truly need to be seen beyond a strength they are forced to wear.

@yungmedusa ugh, yes! and maybe a hint of cardamom. yumm

You gotta be as shameless about your sovereignty and healing as these abusers are about taking it away from you, if not more. We gotta start going audacity for audacity because there’s just no way we can succeed with having less faith and belief in our victory than our opponents have in their belief of our failure.

@onemorefig I can't believe I haven't considered getting my belly pierced again, but now, I must!

my most underrated tweet imo.

the thing about feminism that uncritically frames menstrual suppression as not only a 100% good thing, but an obvious choice -

is that it ultimately agrees w/the patriarchy:

wombs are inherently inferior, broken & must be fixed by men's medicine.

[💧🔥🩸 @yungmedusa]

the patriarchy: menstruation is a reminder of your inferior design, daughters of Eve

western feminists who want to normalize menstrual suppression: idk about that religious stuff but they're cooking

i don't think i am the first of my bloodline to be anything. i know so much came before me. i know that a lot of my desires are the same desires my ppl had before me. i just simply have the ability to- more freedom

[soosoorandom @sluvity_____]

i highly recommend for women and girls to be intellectually curious and difficult to shame.

[💧🔥🩸 @yungmedusa]

our mothers and maternal figures become patriarchy’s henchman when they use our first periods to shame and sexualize us rather than educate and protect us.

it matters that it happened to them too, but they need to put their big girl panties on and do better for us & themselves.

*handing my man a glass of something to drink*

him: did you electrolyte it?

[💧🔥🩸 @yungmedusa]

it's so grating to me when people call fetuses parasites when black/indigenous/immigrant/disabled/etc babies are born into the world viewed by society as parasites.

there has to be another way to describe the asymmetrical relationship between mother & fetus.

i love it how every time i have somewhere to go i think that i'm going to make me an outfit from scratch

Learn to clap for others.
Learn to admire others’ beauty without comparing yourself to them.
Coexist with grace and pure intentions.

I used my double boiler to make an herbal tea in the bottom and hot cocoa on top. As someone who drinks/serves 2-5 different hot drinks a day, this is innovation.

Never take anyone's self-importance personally. They ARE the main character in their life. Just stop committing to being a supporting character to their inconsideration
