Find you a best friend that is there for you, loves you, PROVES they love you, listens to you, understands you, wants to keep getting to know you, wants to see you grow and become the best version of yourself, and never lets you wonder if you matter to them.
Find you a best friend that will listen to you, TRULY listen to you, when you're down, never make you feel silly about what is bothering you, tries to help you find solutions, and never makes you feel like listening to you is a burden or a chore.
Find you a best friend that makes you a better person. One that challenges you, and pushes you to become better because they care. Find you a best friend that sees your worth, knows your worth, and doesn't let you forget your worth when you have.
When you do find such a best friend, you better make sure you love them, care for them, listen to them, TRULY listen to them, remember the little things they tell you, because those are often the biggest things, never stop getting to know them,
encourage them, always let them know how much they mean to you, give them space when they need it, let them know that you believe in them, love them a little bit more when things aren't going their way, and celebrate for their wins as hard as you celebrate yours. I am happy to
be able to say that I have a best friend that is exactly like that. When you have such a real, honest, true friendship with someone, there's no better feeling in the world. 🥰🤍

Friends, if you read one post of mine today, please let this be the one. This is me. As you can see, I am in a wheelchair. I have a physical disability called spina bifida, which occurs at birth when the spine and spinal cord don't form properly. Many definitions of spina bifida Image
call it a "birth defect," but I don't like that term. I am not defective. I am a person with a disability. People with disabilities are not defective. We are capable, contributing members of our society living every day trying to find our place in the world that is often
stigmatizing and ableist. We are often talked down to, bullied, mocked, and not taken seriously. Some of us are made to feel that we're invalid because of our disabilities, whether they are physical and visible like mine, or invisible.

A question for men who insist on derailing women's posts about sexual assault, rape, harassment, abuse, and the like: Do you laugh at rape jokes? Do you MAKE rape jokes? Do you call it out when you hear or read a rape joke, particularly when it's your guy buddy that makes it?
Or do you let it slide because a woman's discomfort is more acceptable to you than potentially causing a divide in your friendship with your good buddy? Are you willing to risk your relationship with that guy to help make women feel seen, heard, and safe?
If you do laugh at rape jokes, if you do make rape jokes, if you don't call them out when you hear or read them, if you put your friendship with your guy buddies that tell rape jokes ahead of the safety and well being (physical, emotional, and mental) of women, then you ARE one

Reminders for a Monday morning: #BlackLivesMatter. Donald Trump incited an insurrection. Climate change is real. Matt Gaetz is a pedophile that deserves to be locked up. Bill Cosby is a rapist. Rape jokes are never funny. If you make rape jokes you're an asshole. If you laugh at
rape jokes you are an asshole. If you hear or read a rape joke and you don't call it out then you're an asshole and a part of the problem. Same thing with sexism and misogyny. White supremacy is a cancer and a threat to us all. Climate change is real.
Critical Race Theory needs to be taught in every education system everywhere. If you see an injustice you must call it out. Believe women. Every single time. Listen to women. Respect women. Elevate women and amplify their voices. Don't talk over women. If a woman says
