Proud of myself today 💕
I have a 3rd grader whose parents never named him. All of his school logins go by “infant male”.
I want to be the one to change that & help him get a legal name.
Got dad a lawyer who will do the case pro bono.
Told dad I’d help him pay the court fees

Not seen one solid argument as to why people should inform the MUA that the makeup is for a wedding
Yoh! I thought I was crazy.
I watched the video and I was like this is really terrible advice and it's problematic to internalize this type of thinking.
For the time that you're here, build your sandcastle like it's the best ever sandcastle that's ever been made.
shit talk.
you’ve never been a father, and had your kids ask you for the basics and you can’t provide it.
or had a sick child in the hospital, and they’re not receiving the adequate care because they’re getting what you can afford in that moment in time
the essence of what his saying is life is finite, we should make the most use of it, but what’s the use if you spend the whole time time thinking how life is finite and refusing to try because “nobody’s gonna remember you after you’re gone”.
i seen this video multiple times over the years and each time i see it, i think:
this isn’t advice it’s an ode to poverty.
worry, try, strive, win. don’t be a loser.

be strict about who you keep around you so your self-perception doesn't become negative from all the defense you'll have to do. if there's a war you're gonna think you're a soldier
I find it concerning that people tweet about problematic experiences with their friends when they haven't exactly brought up those issues directly with the friend.
It's such a weird way of doing things.
Always talk to your friends first.

Sending love to everyone. ❤️🙏
Today I learned a term called 'Delayed Selfhood': When a child lives in a high-stress survival mode, their brain prioritizes the amygdala (the fear center) over the prefrontal cortex (the social and emotional learning center). When that person finally reaches a safe place in adulthood( financially or physically ), the "freeze" thaws, and they suddenly have to learn things like social cues or how to trust that others learned at age five.. 1//3
