Representation is important because we can’t keep banging on about how multicultural and diverse our society is and having nothing to show for it. 🤷🏾‍♀️

I prefer being friends with involved parents. Who develop their child’s emotions and critical thinking. Send their kids to daycare able to recognize body parts, shapes, objects and colors. The ones who recognize when their child needs a little extra help and accommodates for it.

If you get the chance to rebuild your life in your 20's or 30's, don't spend the entire season trying to prove you've moved on. Actually move on. Build healthier habits, enjoy your own space and give yourself experiences that aren't connected to your past.

not interested in being friends with or being partnered with people who don’t take responsibility for their own joy.

Lmao, I won’t be supporting this travesty anyway but this is such a skill issue bc wasn’t one of the selling points that the tv show was going to be closer to the books than the films were?
HBO is reportedly in panic mode over its upcoming ‘HARRY POTTER’ series, with insiders claiming the network may be running out of ideas to keep audiences invested. One insider stated that the series “will struggle to stand out from the original films”, with growing concerns that audiences may be reluctant to embrace another retelling of the iconic franchise. HBO is reportedly under growing pressure to get the series right ahead of its December 25 premiere.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The account describes itself as a parody and satirical news account. No credible sources report HBO in "panic mode" or similar concerns over the Harry Potter series, which has a confirmed December 25 premiere and ongoing positive development. x.com/HavocCrave/sta… deadline.com/feature/harry-… editorial.rottentomatoes.com/article/everyt…

Y ojalá que siga bajando la tasa de natalidad mientras vivamos en una sociedad que no valora la maternidad, no protege a las infancias y no garantiza una vida digna para quienes ya existen...

I think there's also something to be said abt how representation can become a substitute for collective power. Ppl can become deeply invested in whether someone who looks like them succeeds within an institution without asking whether that institution has become any more accountable to the communities they represent
Many people's sense of blackness comes from media consumption and racial visibility. Not from their culture, community, politics, or real-world experience. Causing them to lack a core identity. They not only use movies, film, TV, and celebrities to escape but also to fill in

the women who can't be arsed to care about materially consequential feminism, are the same ones who are too cowardly to turn against the grain, are the same ones who model their own lives after the most recent social norms set by feminists before them.
i think a lot of feminists live in an online echo chamber and don't realize how unrealistic it is to ask women to stop having sex/relationships w men for a movement that most of them dont care deeply about

Can’t even begin to explain how important an internal audit is.
anytime someone does something weird to me i work on myself, because what am i even doing being around someone like that.

Your hate is misdirected. You should hate your rulers for not providing safe and convenient public transportation. Everyone, whether poor or not, should have access to a convenient means of public transportation. Poverty is not a personal failing.
One of the many reasons I hate poverty is public transport

Yes and yes. Too many awful people are making more awful people…
Everyone should be required to complete parenting training before becoming parents. The training should be at least 2 years long, because people out here are shamelessly ruining their children’s mental health as well as their own.

Le jour où les femmes comprendront que les hommes n’ont pas la même empathie que nous, ne se remettent pas constamment en question comme nous et ne se damnent pas autant que nous on avancera
J’ai jamais compris pourquoi les hommes avaient cette facilité de passer à autre choses aussi vite tout en aillant gâcher la vie d’une autre.

honestly no woman who has genuinely understood feminism has ever regretted it. if you think feminism is something women should feel embarrassed or regretful about, you probably never understood it in the first place. hope that helps.
I genuinely think a time will come when many women will regret supporting the version of feminism being glorified today. And I’m not talking about equal rights, opportunities, or financial independence. I’m talking about pseudo-feminism that teaches women they don’t need a man, compromising is weakness, making sacrifices is losing yourself, and that earning money means you should never have to adjust for anyone. Where respecting your husband is called submission, putting effort into a relationship is considered desperate, and walking away is celebrated more than working things out. And I think many women will realise how damaging this mindset was, perhaps in their late thirties or forties, when they look back and understand that they were taught to see partnership as a burden rather than something worth building. I genuinely believe that day is not very far away.

Capitalism thrives bc you guys are quite eager to struggle. If her parents are happy to have her there, they don’t need the additional money, and she can probably buy a place without needing to rent first in the future, why is it anyone else’s issue?
My take on this is that after a while, you HAVE to be self-sufficient bc living in someone ELSE'S house, parents or not, completely bill free is crazy af to me for someone over 25 years of age...

A very vivid memory for me is in 6th grade (1996) my dad asked me whether I wanted to go to college and I said “OF COURSE I DO. I DON’T WANT TO BE A HOUSEWIFE!” My mom, a sahm, was in the room and my dad said “You should watch what you say around people you love… (cont)

Newsflash: many parents of bullies are themselves bullies and even assist their children in bullying other children.
You absolutely failed as a parent if your child is a bully
