I’m So Vain, I Bet You Think My Selfie Is For Attention
When are we going to stop shaming people for liking themselves? Since middle school, I’ve struggled with my self-image to a debilitating degree. That was when I remember noticing that school felt less like education and more like a cut-throat beauty pageant…

Re-Writing My Future: Thoughts From A Recently Diagnosed Musician By Amanda Roswick
Initially, I responded to my EDS and Pots Diagnoses with relief. Many blood tests had come back normal, so I felt validated when something was actually wrong. Today, though, I hit a huge wall of realization that, although it doesn’t mean my life will be cut short, it will impact my quality of life and the music…

Attention lovers of Poetry!!
Skeleton Trees is one of the most powerful collections of poetry I’ve ever read. TJ articulates the vulnerability of longing and the constant heartbreak that comes with emotional abuse. Her authenticity shines through the rawness of her emotions. I’m especially grateful to the author because during one of my darkest times, her words inspired me to write about my own traumatic experiences. As cliché as it may sound, I remember I read it all in one sitting because I just couldn’t put it down. Do yourself a favor and check it out on Amazon!

“Because men’s sexual attention is always supposed to be flattering. Regardless of whether or not those feelings are reciprocated.”
Even when this behavior is meant to be seen as creepy or wrong, the people behind the camera still take the opportunity to sexualize the female characters. This is an issue with many depictions of rape and sexual assault as well. Even if the male character is the villain or portrayed as evil, the violence is depicted in a way that still allows for the titillation of the viewer.

Awareness and Accountability
Human
I am doing the best I can. When I fake a smile. When I fool you with false confidence. When I feign self-belief just to manifest it into the eventual truth — someday. I am doing the best I can. When I contradict myself. When I calculate and manipulate. When I’m cynical of every detail…

I live in a speck of a town on the edge of a state so vast I often forget we are minuscule. I’m not quite the big fish I expected I’d be as I gawk between walls of stone masterpiece trickling with wide- not small- rivers- not ponds- or gaze at the living room window…

Gaslighting is the act of manipulation using psychological efforts to make a person question their own sanity and reality.
