Children are like dogs, they need to be socialized and put into situations in order to learn how to behave in them. Yes, children require adaptability for their parents, but they also require adaptability within their society. The children of today are the leaders of tomorrow, and while they should be expected to behave in developmentally appropriate ways, treating them with scorn is an exercise in foolishness, and often deeply rooted in misogyny.
the demonisation of babies and children in public is a feminist issue when mothers are the primary caretakers of their children and constantly making them feel unwelcome existing in public is not okay. ur demands for children and babies to be kept at home all the time is not only detrimental to those babies and children but what. do u just want mothers to be kept chained inside their houses?
I'm at a BBQ/baseball watch party and I gotta piss but this frat bro is taking a shit in the bathroom.

I'd add one more to make this the perfect list: separate volunteering from one to evolve your mindset.
One to Give Back:
Finding a cause or local group in your area (not online) refuels your larger activism, offers networking opportunities with like-minded and morally aligned individuals, and fosters community engagement and your emotional investment in your community.
Examples: your local women's shelter, student government, your local animal shelter or rescue, soup kitchens, your local YWCA, your local Junior League, volunteering at the old folks home, joining the breakfast/meal team at your religious institution, getting involved with a community garden, or park cleanups.

Anyways, quick update, dumped my situationship that was on and off for all of 2024 in December, met a man in the beginning of the month, not just a man, but a horseman too. I've been pretty offline in general, not just here but... everywhere, because my time is pretty much consumed with work, dates, and work-dates/barn chores with said horseman, and class work. I've also been getting more involved in my Parish and Church lately as well, and the Horseman has been integrating really well into my church life as well. I'm still line dancing when and where I can, but we're also learning Texas Two-Step and Western Swing dance as well. He's a farrier, and it's honestly a LOT of fun being with someone who is in an adjacent field and can understand and relate to the problems that come with working both with animals and their owners. Since I'm primarily in rehabilitation medicine as well, having someone who understands soundness/lameness issues and how neuro vs musculoskeletal vs conformation vs injury lameness varies is also really nice. Plus he's kind and I'm on a bit of a learning curve on how to accept really being cherished and loved the way I should be rather than begging for scraps. Anyways, I'll try and get back to regular blog posting, and as penance, here's a photo of my man while he was shoeing his gelding last weekend.
Context dependent: for exercise, it's short, for hauling groceries back home, it's long.
Do you consider a 20 minute walk a far walk?
hi! please could you recommend cheap fragrance free moisturisers, suncream and cleansers (both oil and water based), as well as body wash, shampoo and conditioner? :) thank you ♡
Hi Nonnie! Of course!
For Drugstore fragrance-free products in the $5-$15 per product range, I really like CereVe for facial skincare, they have a foaming oil cleanser. They're too mass-market for my tastes. However, they are dermatologist-recommended and affordable. I also believe some of their packaging is recyclable, but check with your recycling provider to see what plastics they accept and don't accept.
They also have fragrance-free sunscreens with and without tint if you're looking for something with more of a BB Cream effect, and an AM and PM moisturizer pair, with the AM moisturizer having SPF 30 built-in.
As far as body wash & shampoo, I'm honestly not sure about fragrance-free products, I'm sure there are plenty out there. However, I switched to an all-in-one castile soap from Dr Bronners for my body, face, and hair (which is unscented), and I really just use natural oils to condition my hair. I also home-make a lot of my skincare & hair care, and I'll be posting skincare & beauty recipes soon to help you ladies start crafting your skincare from food-grade ingredients.
