I hate when people are like “the world’s a cruel place, just get used to it.” That’s a terrible mentality! Never accept cruelty and brutality and unhappiness as the norm. The world is a cruel place, so get out there and make it a little less so.

Men, don’t let this society try to shame you out of doing things to take care of yourself…they’ll have you out here thinking that daily bathing is feminine. Condition your hair, moisturize your skin, smell good, drink that “girly” drink, manicure if you want to, do a spa day, do you. This goes beyond physical hygiene, too. There’s nothing masculine about ignoring pain. Go to the doctor regularly, get your mental health checked, stop going to sleep with headaches. Whatever you need to do to take care of yourself. Stop living other people’s lives because at the end of day, when you’re on your deathbed, none of these folks are gonna trade their lives for yours.
if you see someone being interrupted in a conversation, acknowledge them, don’t let them be pushed to the side. if you see someone lagging behind, walk beside them. if someone is being ignored, take the step to include them. always remind people of their worth. it hurts when it feels like you’re being forgotten. that small gesture can mean a lot.
can we stop acting like it’s okay to make fun of people’s physical appearances after they’ve said something ignorant?? especially with women. as soon as someone slips, ya’ll are there tellin’ her how ugly she is like you’ve been waiting for a reason to do it all along. what’s your problem??? stop
