Exactly. There is an element of truth to the racist battle-cry of ‘everyone is racist!’. We just have to take the exact opposite lesson from it, and use that as motivation to questions ourselves and better ourselves.

I think driving in bad traffic makes everybody racist/sexist/homophobic.
Good on her. I don’t know why people have such a hard time admitting to their internalized -isms. I often admit to being sexist, racist and homophobic and people look at me like I’m insane, but the truth of the matter is that most of us are a little bit, and the best way to improve is to be honest with yourself. Being…
If there’s anyone who could make a return after pregnancy and win a couple titles (and overtake Court), it’s Serena. I hope she’s happy and healthy.
*acknowleges this show is problematic AF*
I think Kansas might be fluke though—brownback has damn near shut the state down with absurd tax cuts. I think the near miss had way more to do with local politics than Trump.
I’m 37 and single (female). A lot of my friends have or are newly having kids. Honestly, in my experience it’s just about making an effort (parents are busy - doesn’t mean they don’t want to talk to you). Understanding when they have challenges with their families and coming by with some food once in awhile. Just be…
The good ones still want you as freinds even if you’re the only one without kids. The good ones need the non-parent friends to stay sane once they learn to take a break from their own kids. If they suspend their own lives for a few decades for their kids, they wouldn’t be interesting even if you had kids too.
I Feel you. Feel with a capital T. I’m 31 and the last among my immediate group of friends without a husband/wife/serious relationship. Two of my oldest friends are having babies soon and another friend has had a baby for well over a year now. I wonder if there is something deficient about me, that I am still alone…
Not even a worry. All of my friends are the ones I had before the kids - and most of them don’t have kids. They know who I am as a normal, whole person and not just “Henry and Oliver’s mom.” Which like 10% of who I am.
My bestie has 4 kids ranging from 16 to twin 6-year-olds. She got pregnant with the twins just a few months after I met her. I don’t have kids. Our entire friendship takes place in her kitchen or den. I always go to her house because it’s impossible for her to get away 99% of the time. Which is actually great. We make…
You risk losing friends when you all have kids too though. Some parents are so competitive. My daughter spoke really well as a toddler. But a friend of mine would pretend she couldn’t understand anything Hannibal the Younger said. She was the only mom in our group that did that, it was so weird! She did other passive…
They are just as afraid of losing you. I was secretly deep down terrified that I would lose all my friends when I had a baby. So far this magical crowd of “mom friends” has not appeared and I’m so freaking lonely sometimes. My BFF is there for me and awesome, but she’s busy too and she can’t be my only support.
I hate change, too.
I can say my friendship with one of my closest friends has changed - but thats only because she has always been a selfish person. I just stepped away from her some so she can figure her shit out - because I am a parent now I don’t have time to listen to the stories about the homeless guy she was accidently dating, or…
Me too. I hated her and then suddenly I loved her and I didn’t even notice the switch in feelings.
LOVE the stepmother. When she first appeared at court I was all “who is this bitch?!” but by the end I was full on rooting for her.
That was part of the plotline for Samantha’s friend Nellie, who worked in a sweatshop with her sisters after their mother died. Also, there’s Rebecca, the Russian Jewish immigrant living in New York City in 1910.
Try Boden! 😊
I’ve been washing with the Angels on Bare Skin facial cleanser and following up with Breath of Fresh Air Toner and Cosmetic Lad moisturizer in the morning, and Full Of Grace moisturizer at night. A pot of cleanser will last me a month, and the toner and moisturizers around 4-5 months. After my pregnancy I tried…
