.Never Home Typa Life.

So, what if, instead of thinking about solving your whole life, you just think about adding additional good things. One at a time. Just let your pile of good things grow.

When the honeymoon stage ends what happens

You’re more honest with each other. Bodily functions are something to laugh about. Sweatpants and tee shirts are a regular thing. They know what you look like without all the makeup. Being “laid up and watching Netflix” is the only thing you’re looking forward to after work. You don’t go on fancy dates as often but you trade that for quality time. You find yourself being more vulnerable and you open up more. They become your best friend. You will able to talk about anything. You won’t be worried about impressing their parents, you’re just gonna love them anyway regardless of how their parents may feel. You will have inside jokes that no one else will get. Sex is not as often but, twice as passionate. Little fights will happen, but you’ll learn not to sweat the small stuff. You’ll learn what compromise really is about. You’ll dream about the future together. Grow together. Be on each other’s team. See their ugly crying face, and be the one to wipe the tears away & do something stupid to make them life. things are amazing after the honeymoon stage. However, it’s a time about giving up your walls and open up some doors you have locked a long time ago.

went on this tour of my city today, this white lady was spilling bulllshit about how amazing gentrification was and how they (the people doing the gentrification) were doing amazing things for the people, so of course I had to be the one to say “what about the people getting pushed out of their homes that are too poor to just ‘move somewhere else’” 

Gentrification is pretty much when people with opportunity take the opportunity from others. I hear people saying ‘don’t you want your part of the city to be nice?’ OF COURSE we do… heck, we’d love a fancy cupcake shop at the end of our street, who doesn’t like cupcakes? let alone fancy ones! but putting these in parts of cities that need TLC isn’t going to help. Putting a starbucks in the centre of these streets takes away from the working class cafes for instance, the way putting a leading supermarket takes away from the corner shops that cater to the community.
