taylor swift is actually for the girls who were known but never popular, fit in with many friend groups but never in the group chats, talked to at school but never invited to the parties, for the girls who have friends but still feel lonely because they were never their best friends favorites

why do i relate to this so hard

Quick poll: reblog if you’ll still read fanfics and enjoy the shit out of gifs once the show is over.

This happened to me, too. A woman had used WIC for the majority of her stuff (which I say from personal experience is such a long and embarrassing process) and to buy the remainder of her groceries, which included diapers and wipes, she used a card, and it got declined. I bought the other $30 of her groceries because hey, I’ve been there, and now I’m not. She was extremely emotional and began to cry and even hugged me. My mom called me on the drive home and could tell I had been crying myself, asked what was wrong, and when I told her what happened, she berated me for being “duped.” I couldn’t believe she could be so disappointed in one of her children for doing something- nice? Is that the hill you want to die on? Getting mad about people needing groceries?

Do good recklessly.

I think “Do good recklessly” would be fantastic word art to hang on one’s wall. Artistic people, go!

So this has happened to me but from the other side. Several years ago when my oldest was around three or so, I had my debit card decline at Walmart. It wasn’t a scam or a mistake, I was genuinely broke. Out of money. I checked my bank and discovered I had something like 7 dollars left to my name and a hungry kid and nothing to eat at home. So I sat there trying to come up with the best way to stretch that tiny amount of money to feed my kid. Not even to feed me. I can live on popcorn or something if I have to but my kid was three and he had to eat. So there I am trying really hard not to cry while I slowly take things out of my basket to get it down to under 7 bucks, when a lady tapped me on the shoulder. I looked up and she smiled at me and started putting the things back in my cart. I opened my mouth to tell her that I didn’t have the money for them but she stopped me right away and said “Don’t worry about it. It’s gonna be fine.” Then she handed the cashier her credit card and said “Ring up all of it.” My kid got to eat because of her. I got to eat because of her. I had laundry soap and deodorant because of her. She could’ve just ignored me silently struggling in that line. She could’ve decided I was a scam and gone home feeling good about avoiding being duped. But instead she chose to help me and she saved us. So maybe the person struggling in front of you is trying to put one over on you or maybe they are just sad and broke and trying to figure out what to do. You get to decide which you want to believe and what you want to do. But I’ll tell y’all, no one has ever been more beautiful to me than that lady in that line who saved me and my baby. Be like her. Be beautiful.

Do good recklessly

Can we make Do good recklessly The slogan on 2019

Do Good Recklessly

Do we wanna do a selfie night next Friday (a week from today) where we all put on what would’ve been our loverfest costumes so our cute outfits don’t all go to waste

k I’m dumb and forgot to put a tag so let’s just do #loverfestnight !! I’ll reblog everybody’s!

It actually doesn’t matter that she hadn’t dated anyone after 2012 for 3-4 years because the world had labeled her a slut. It doesn’t matter that she dated a regular amount of people as a normal early 20 year old woman did. It doesn’t matter that she’s been in a relationship with the same person for 5 years. It doesn’t matter. And those things shouldn’t matter. Even IF she didn’t date for 3-4 years, even IF she dated more than average people, even IF she hasn’t been in a relationship with the same person for half a decade it doesn’t matter. She still shouldn’t be slut shamed. People make jokes and turn a blind eye because oh it’s Taylor Swift but like... regardless if you like her or not, she is one of the biggest artists of the decade. She won artist of the decade. If Netflix, one of the biggest streaming services of the world, can allow these types of jokes in their shows about the woman of the decade, a global superstar, a woman who has broken many records throughout her career.. who’s to say that they won’t do it to a younger, more vulnerable artist? Who’s to say this mindset won’t ruin that young woman’s career like it almost did taylors?

friendly reminder to user @taylorswift that we love her and we will ALWAYS stand by her side.

anyway @taylorswift i love you forever and i’m sending the biggest hug
