do you ever listen to a lorde song and feel like it’s TOO personal like ella yelich-o'connor must have literally broken into your home, opened your diary, read all your texts, and left without a trace because otherwise how the fuck would she have known to write that

Millie Bobby Brown says ya’ll need to stop coming between her and Drake.

[black-rose0205]

Her response proves the point about this being an inappropriate “friendship”.

[dicapito]

Her response also proves her parents care more about the money than their own kid.

[xmagnet-o]

I was just thinking that too.

[dicapito]

I just don’t get why they’re sitting back and allowing this. For fame? I mean damn….at least try and be a parent.

[xmagnet-o]

Sadly, many parents love money more than their children.

I just hope someone steps in to protect her.

What’s really fucked up is we know if he wasn’t rich they would’ve called the police on him a long time ago.

and unfortunately a lot of teens don’t recognize how young they are. like despite feeling n acting mature they can’t change the fact that they aren’t n don’t fully understand the potential ramifications of relationships like this. it just feels like infantilization to them which is frustrating to kids who don’t see themselves as kids. and its not until they’re older do they begin to realize why these situations are so concerning n after that it ends up being too late n just a whirlwind of trauma following right after

“For a lot of people, their teenage years would be where they were most emotionally accessible, and for me it was the opposite. I realized I was feeling all the feelings, and they felt so singular and so young. When I was 16, it felt important to be unfazed by things. Now I’m deeply fazed.

and in some way Kansas City, I have you to thank for that. In a lot of ways, this is our song. No one else, it’s just ours.

Queer Black Mom to Be in Need

Yo, my life exploded and this time it is not my fault. 😢

I got pregnant (I planned it with the father who, almost instentaneously afterwards, became abusive) and moved back to Philadelphia after 12 years of living in Kentucky to be closer to family and reduce some stress. Well so much for that.

Here’s my little nugget:

I’m still pregnant, baby and I are fine. This baby is wanted and very much already loved.

However! My two cousins who I was living with are suddenly no longer able to live with me for reasons that are not my business to put on the internet.

I’m still in my family’s home (owned by family) but I am still presently without a steady, viable income. I’ve been very diligently looking for work since I moved back in April and all I’ve found so far are short term temp positions.

I’m currently studying to teach English (I plan to sign up for one of those imperialist work-at-home programs where you teach kids in China online or something similar) but my program is 150 hours, so I won’t be certified for a hot minute.

Anyway, I’m responsible for bills (gas, electric, water). I have to get around to interviews, state required volunteer work for TANF benefits and of course mental health & prenatal apppintments. My home is very old and the walls need to be treated for lead to make a safe environment for my little James Henry.

For now food stamps have my groceries covered! I’m on medicaid so my copays are free!

Additionally, come October, I’m going to have baby needs to pay for. I plan to breastfeed and pump, so at least I won’t have to pay for formula. When winter happens I’ll have to pay for oil heat to keep the house warm if my cousins still haven’t returned by then.

I need help.

If anyone wants to be an angel and gift my baby with a diaper service so he can wear cloth diapers (and professionals can clean them and take them away!) That would knock out one of my hugest future anxieties about being able to maintain for my baby’s needs.

Gift certificates to Philly Diaper Service would be an amazing help.

I have a baby registry up on amazon (and I’ve scheduled this post for after the strike/prime day is over) and that’s a way to help with baby needs. I would deeply appreciate getting stuff that isn’t fun, like infant detergent, wipes and cloth diapers because I’m getting some baby clothes from friends with boys.

Pam’s Amazon Wish List for James Henry 🍼

And if you’re a more practical person, please consider gifting an amazon gift card or ca$h money to my PayPal. If my unemployment/my cousins being MIA lasts into September, I’ll build a gofundme or a youcaring to prep for baby and winter, but for now on short term emergency stuff, paypal is cool.

Reblogs are deeply appreciated.
