Don’t mean to crash without input, but I had wanted to do the same discussion as a weekly thing. I even made a logo like the bored person I am. You may steal or offer input on changing it.

Still not with her friends from dance class and sparks, but I’m so excited that she can at least socialize normally with a group of kids. Maybe it will be a stepping stone to speaking in a classroom. To be honest, I think she even surprised herself!

Truthfully, this is a mind-bending time, and one when we feel a lot of frustration, sadness, fear, and guilt.

Image upload failed. Trying this again. Here’s my new kitty, Apricot. Brought home yesterday.

Please, be single. You deserve better than this. Don’t settle for this. Get used to the idea that you may be single for the rest of your life. And then be okay with it. Develop a community outside a relationship

Lately I’ve been experimenting with raw African Black Soap. Not the refined stuff, like Dudu Osun, or any inauthentic version from Europe with added dyes. It’s true Alata Samina... and it’s actually more of a brown colour (it can range from light to darker brown, depending on how long the ingredients, like dried…

I’m 26 and going through this right now. Grad school has done a number on my ability to prioritize exercise and a healthy diet, but I’m getting back to a place where I’m mostly happy with the choices I’m making. I think, more than anything else, I’ve caught myself staring at pictures of me from high school and…

Somewhat yes, but I still have trouble. I’ve gained ten pounds twice and they won’t budge no matter what.

I feel like the lack of nipple is also something people don’t realize. I too could have had a fifth surgery to “make” a nipple out of something but it didn’t make sense for me. Most mastectomies for actual cancer leave you without a nipple, which the media does not portray.

At a SCA costume ball I went to there was a survivor dressed authentically as a amazon. Seriously badassed woman.

she misses feathered hats

I ALREADY PRE ORDERED MINE.

That’s ok. Just leave it all packed up.... then toss it into the deepest part of the ocean.

There is a lot to unpack here.

No woman burns her bras because bras are totally a feminist invention. In fact, many of the patents for 19th century women were filed by women. If it weren’t for bras, we’d be strapping ourselves in corsets. Bras = liberation.

This. People say we’re cruel for not letting our giant Maine Coons roam the neighborhood. I say: I feed birds and make space for wildlife in our garden (hedgehogs, rabbits, etc.), why the hell would I lure them in just to get eaten by my well-fed house cats? Also: the best way to shorten the lifespan of your favorite…

Ok. Cute bunny story.

You should watch Lars and the Real Girl – I bet you’d love it to pieces! (It’s on Hulu if you have that.) Long story short, it’s exactly the opposite of what you’d expect from a movie about a loner who introduces an anatomically-correct sex doll as his girlfriend. It’s a very sweet, wonderfully refreshing indie movie,…

I am so jealous. I want to be a hand model & get paid in free manicures.

Basking n the sun was the best activity.
