my straight male coworker looks over at my drawings
“you drew that boy in a dress”
“yes I have”
“…that’s cute he looks really cute in that”
“yes”
“draw another in a dress”I’ve awakened something.

Stunning Abstract Mountain Paintings by Conrad Jon Godly
Swiss painter Conrad Jon Godly effortlessly manages to capture the terrain and texture of the Swiss Alps with the use of oil paint, turpentine and incredible skill. By mixing the turpentine with oil paint, Godly is able to apply thick and rugged brushstrokes, which beautifully drop from the canvas.
Although the art of painting usually makes reality seem two-dimensional, Godly has depicted the true texture, roughness and concave of the mountainous landscape in every brush stroke. Overall his skill lends itself beautifully to one’s of nature’s grandest bodies. By carefully combining the colors, blue, black and white, Godly creates what seems to be a photograph.
If a problem a marginalised community faces seems simple to you and you’re pretty sure you know exactly how to fix it, but you’re not part of that community, chances are you don’t understand the complexity of the issue. Especially if your solution is for the marginalised community to change their own behaviour.
So if you ever feel the urge to tell someone how to solve the problem of their own oppression, this is a good time for listening and a bad time for you to be talking.

Dreaming of a white Christmas.
2016 will be a selfish year. My time will be invested on me. On improving myself. I want to become a better person physically and mentally.

I wonder how many minutes I spend per day giving side eye to white people.
Standard
Hi auntie. Any top hoe tips you stand by? I’m tryna glow up in 2016
StandardDon’t burn bridges with men unless you know for SURE you want him out of your life and nothing from him ever again. But don’t ever hesitate to do so if you feel it’s necessary or if you know in your heart he’s no good for you.
Get tested annually or whenever something doesn’t seem right.
Be careful who you vent to. Some shit just doesn’t need to be shared, even with your best homegirl.
Don’t stick around for the bullshit just because his dick too bomb. I know that grade A dick can be hard to find but don’t put up with no fuckshit for it. Dick is in abundance.
If you’re single, always have options.
Take nudes just for you. Take more sexy pictures of yourself, for yourself. Like it. Love it. Save it. Or delete it after you’re done admiring your beauty.
Lady maintenance is important. Get your hair done. Get your damn nails done. Wax that pussy. Have a signature scent. Try new things. Pay attention to your details.
Drink lots of water daily. You’d be amazed at how you’ll feel after drinking 2 liters to a gallon of water a day. You will look and feel significantly better even after a week or so. Add fruit and shit to it, like grapefruit, lemon, cucumber, mint, blackberries, etc. It has added benefits, tastes good and helps you tolerate all that damn water.
Explore your curiosities. Keep your mind open. You never know until you try. You’ll fuck around and stumble on some really dope shit you’ve been missing out on.
Try not to respond to someone until you’ve given yourself time to cool. I’m still learning this. I can say some shit I wish I hadn’t because I was upset and irrational.
Treat yo self
Don’t feel obligated to do anything you do not want to do.
Don’t be messy. Stay in your lane and mind yours.
Expect nada from no man. Everrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Make no assumptions. Communicate. Communication kills assumptions.
