“Send the motherfxxking funds, because the bill’s due now ⏰... and then we can DISCUSS a relationship..” - said every SBG ever.

Nobody wants to hear about what you were gonna do, or what your plans are, homie. Drop that direct deposit and then we’ll talk. Well, you’ll talk and I’ll listen.

Maybe. 🙃

Be still when you have nothing to say; when genuine passion moves you, say what you’ve got to say, and say it hot.

Lonely people tend, rather, to be lonely because they decline to bear the psychic costs of being around other humans. They are allergic to people. People affect them too strongly.

A story “Mad Men” overlooked: Caroline R. Jones, who spearheaded advertising that changed how Americans thought about some of the world’s most popular brands.

Jones built a trailblazing career as an advertising executive, starting as a copywriter in the early 1960s and eventually founding multiple firms. Her clients included American Express, the National Urban League and Kentucky Fried Chicken (her agency developed the slogan “We Do Chicken Right!”).

Throughout her career, Jones struggled against the assumption that her ads should only address African American consumers. Many times her targeted ad campaigns were so successful that companies used them for national work—but, in one case, replaced African American figures with white models.

Jones died in 2001, but her story lives on through items of hers at our National Museum of American History. More about her life on their blog.

It’s strange that while Fall is the beginning of cold weather that it’s a season of such warmth. Warm colors, warm clothes, warm drinks, warm scents, warm feelings. Life gets better when our world surrounds us with warm things. There’s something about the way the trees shed their leaves to warm the Earth that makes things seem more bearable.

Because women in positions of power are seen as less legitimate than men in comparable positions, a study led by Yale's Andrea Vial warns, their mind-set can come to resemble that of "illegitimate authorities." A "self-reinforcing cycle" develops: In the face of disrespect, a woman's leadership style can become overly tentative or aggressive.  People in turn attack her, and she responds with more self-defeating defensiveness. (From the 10/16 "The Atlantic,")

What if you needed all that has happened in your past -all your hopes and losses, your joy, fears and scars- to become the person you are now? More specifically, to be compatible with that one special person who has needed their past just like you needed yours?
