Don’t fall for anyone telling you about personal responsibility who isn’t ALSO talking about systemic conditions #systems #individualism #relationships #design #vote

What a cruelty it has been to women to prevent us from knowing about our own bodies. What a gift it is that new moms now have more access to better information #childbirth #motherhood #postpartum #mentalload #newmom

Arkansas, is it you?

PSA for religious folks waiting to have s*x before marriage - let’s talk about about vaginismus #marriage #purityculture #intimacy #newlywed #honeymoon

Replying to @Rithiely|CreativeStrategist there are sooo many beauitful things about children and becoming a mom, but if I has a choice I wouldn’t do it again.

Replying to @Be_the_light I would hope everybody would like to be savored and not consumed 🥹

Why don’t women initiate? Probably a lot of reasons, this is one of them.

Calling the tomboys who like to add some sparkle to the mix 💅. Ultra Short Almond, in the color peach glaze.

A quick conversation I didn’t have time to edit.

When your worldview is held up by half truths and lies, hearing the truth feels like an attack. When looking the other way allows you to keep your entitlement you are incentivized to look the other way.

The nuclear family is a terrible container for human thriving.

Rec sports and clubs have the older folks who know what’s up. #aging #runningclub

Replying to @Jeremy it’s important to ask yourself the question, who benefits from my inability to imagine possible futures outside of the status quo? There are infinite ways to go about providing paid family leave. Almost all developed nations have figure this out, the United States is an…

You want better outcomes for men & boys? It starts with treating moms better. Our fates are interconnected. #boys #men #motherhood #breastfeeding #braindevelopment

So many people are looking to place blame on this case. My take is the blood is on all of our hands. We act as if the material realities of women’s minds and bodies don’t exists. So paid family leave is absent, along with education for both partners about what brain changes may look and feel like…

If you are with a partner only ever provides support or care with a completely articulated list, this is probably not the person to have a baby with.

#stitch with @Ari Kytsya The blue and white pages is the only place women can show their full bodies on the internet, let’s use it to show women what useful stuff

People who are at home with their life choices don’t throw shade at anyone else’s journey. Only uncomfortable people do that.

#stitch with @Moms First the lack of family infrastructure in the US is downright cruel to mothers. Women stretch themselves as far as they can to bridge all of the gaps and it’s pain coming sideways which looks like judgment.

Just realized this change would never be possible if I hadn’t also realized my own worthiness of experiencing a good a beautiful life, and not simply enduring life.

You gotta pay for what you are looking for buddy.

I also can’t stop thinking about how this puts the labor on her in the moment. It would be kinda funny to send back a voicemail back, “tell me about a time the sex wasn’t good. How did you know it wasn’t good? What do you do when a sexual encounter is bad. Have you ever stopped a sexual encounter…

Recent events inspired a conversation with Josh. This truth comes at no surprise I’m often baffled at how as a straight woman I could have choosen “better” when there are so few men truly equipped and ready to co-create life with a full partner. The game was rigged

There enough O’s to go around. Why would anyone want it any other way?

Having fewer babies will mean taking better care of the ones we have.

Replying to @champagne step one, get curious about yourself. What gives you energy? What brings you down? Are you geting enough to eat? Enough to drink? 2. Act on the findings from step one- meet your needs. 3. Realize bringing your best self to those around you is best for everybody. And learn…

While yesterday was not Ivy acceptabce day, today is cleaning out drafts day. This draft felt right even on the wrong day.

Replying to @Jen Vargas, RN we assume women are “better” at being the default parent because they give birth. But the truth is many women don’t have these skill sets “naturally”, they work hard at it. It was easy to let him take over because he’s naturally better at it. Thanks to @J Fisher for…

Default parents are goated. You make the world go round. Non-default parents enjoy the luxury of a more playful and relaxed relationship because of all you do.
