DEAR EVERYONE
NEVER EVER TOUCH A WRITER/ARTIST/ANYONE’S PERSONAL NOTEBOOK. DO NOT GRAB IT
DO NOT GRAB IT AND TAKE IT
DO NOT TAKE IT
DO NOT TAKE IT
DO NOT LOOK THROUGH IT WITHOUT THEIR EXPLICIT AND CONSISTENT PERMISSION
THERE IS A REASON IT IS THEIR PERSONAL NOTEBOOK AND NOT THEIR PUBLIC EVERYONE GRAB IT NOTEBOOK
I DON’T CARE IF YOU ARE JUST PICKING IT UP TO SEE SOMETHING I AM SHOWING TO YOU
DO NOT TOUCH IT
THANK YOU!
The fact that this is actually getting notes is so beautiful, man.
celebrate your personal victories because no one else understands what it took to accomplish them
listen. we all know 2017 is going to be a horrific dystopian shitshow on a global level. but i hope on a PERSONAL level, you’re able to attain the stability, peace & support you need to survive it. happy new year. ✌
the LAST person you should ever compare yourself to is a celebrity. they have the ability to spend thousands of dollars a month on the most perfect organic food, diet plans, workout plans, and have access to the most high end personal trainers. little old you is doing just fine! make your goals realistic and don’t get bummed out if you aren’t progressing as fast as someone else.

im genuinely hoping 2016 is good for all of you. those who are suffering with personal stuff or just want a fresh start, or anything else, i hope you survived 2015 with a good feeling about 2016. make it your best year yet.
it’s okay to admit to the repercussions of your assault
you have every right to not feel comfortable after something like that
and it’s okay to be honest with people in your life, but it’s also none of their business and if you don’t/can’t share what happened, they need to respect you and your personal boundaries
do not date or be with people who want to fix you. surround yourself with people who want to work with you.
if i say to you “i cannot have sex in missionary” that is all you need to know. i will give more information when i feel it is appropriate. you must trust that i know my own mind, body, and soul.
what happened to you is not okay, and you most likely will have some sort of emotional and mental aftermath. that does not make you less of a person or weak in anyway. you are already very strong for making it this far in life. we need to work on ourselves and find what balance works for us.
I received a message from someone that mentioned previously having a blog that contained personal photos and anecdotes until she acquired stalkers that caused her to delete. The unfortunate reality is that the message wasn’t the first or second or third I’ve received with a similar story. For some reason this one put me over the edge…
The Women of Tumblr ARE NOT YOURS. Regardless of how many pictures of my body are posted, I am NOT yours. The simple act of a post that illustrates a preference does not imply any sort of consent. Uncovering a name, a city, or a job is not an invitation to enter, nor should you EVER attempt to rob a woman of her anonymity.
We are forced to glance over our shoulders as we blog. Relegated to some odd Internet equivalent of protecting our drink from being spiked. We worry about too much information while also seeking authenticity. We must be both the gatekeeper and the protected treasure.
We are your neighbors, your coworkers, the doctor at your hospital, your child’s kindergarten teacher. We come to this space to kick our feet up, let our hair down, and simply celebrate what we are. Beautiful, talented, amazing women. We each bring our own stories, our own hopes, our own strife.
We flock to this open and welcoming environment. Positive. Uplifting. Engaging. Human beings crave connection and the desire to be understood. We have that in this community.
Get over the fact that I am not here for your pleasure. I am here for mine.
