The NJ Pine Barrens is known for its beautiful natural landscape, wildlife, and their very own urban legend, The Jersey

The Jersey Devil

Every state claims they have weird happenings that that go bump in the night or local lore that scare children and make grown men run from the woods. Recently people have been accepting invites to Area 51 for what was at first a joke turned party. Regrettably, there is not really a party but it enticed millions of people anyway to see what would be going on . People love to flock to the weird and macabre.

The Garden State is no different.

Growing up with our very own satanic creature lurking about has created fantastic stories, all which is more deliciously frightening than the next. Whether the devil may be a cursed child of a New Jersey mother, or merely a figment of our imagination, it is another legend that continues to spread today. There are still sightings in the Pine Barrens, in the woods all hours of the day and night. A few years ago a Pinelands resident said she and her son saw a horrific creature on the roof of her house one winter's night. Whether you believe it or not one thing is for sure; this state has more secrets lurking about then it has Starbucks on every corner.

If youre looking for a slower-paced weekend getaway, turn off exit 63 on the NJ Parkway to find yourself in Barnegat Lig

Seriously people??

Abortion Illegal in 2019...Is This FOR REAL?

Abortion is being made illegal in Alabama and other states and you should be pissed.

Having a baby is a huge decision and life choice. Not having a baby is just as enormous. There are many reasons why a woman would decide on having an abortion, but none of them should involve the government telling her if she is allowed to do so. Making something extremely illegal will encourage people to go out and get it done in other ways, which can be dangerous and life threatening. We have seen this in the opiate epidemic where even the CDC admitted they went a little too far making up the numbers surrounding it. People are buying illegal drugs because they can't get their own legally.

Having an abortion is not as easy as simply popping a pill. Most doctors won't take you until you are 6 to 10 weeks pregnant. By then a baby has already started to develop a heartbeat, organs, and buds that will become arms and legs. It's a difficult choice to end a life. Abortions are no easy decision for anybody and should never be considered such. No matter what your political or religious views are they should not impact somebody else's decisions. You don't know why a woman decides to have an abortion. Maybe she is a rape victim or her child will grow up with Tay-Sachs. The child will die a few years after they are born. Would you want to watch your child grow up to the age of 5 only to know that perhaps soon after they will pass away? Nobody has the right to tell you what to do with your body. You may not support abortion but you should support someone's choices. THEIR choice, not yours. Decisions such as these are throwing women back into a time we're staying home was the norm and us trying to vote was laughable.

If states are allowed to continue with bans such as this, what other rights could be at risk to be taken away? If you believe they are doing it because they want you to be safe think again. They themselves think it's morally wrong but they are not the ones who have to carry the child or financially take care of the child. Telling a woman to close her legs or keeping an aspirin between them as birth control is not an answer. This is not even a feminist issue this is a human being issue. Men should be just as furious. Fathers should be just as angry that people are telling their daughter she can't have an abortion if it could save her life or somebody viciously raped her.

It is time to stop this clock from going backward even further. It's time to stand up for human rights everywhere.

#SuicideDue2Pain Is An Actual Hashtag. And It Should Make You Furious AS FUCK

Yes, we all know that drugs is a huge problem in this country. Millions of people die from overdoses because of drug abuse and that is a major concern. I have lost many people in my life because drug related overdoses and someone I love dearly was brought back by ER doctors twice, so I understand how horrible drugs can be. But for those of us who deal with chronic pain everyday we are the ones who are suffering. I don't agree with doctors just handing out prescription after prescription. But that is one of just many problems. Those who need narcotics and other opioids for legit medial reasons are being denied because of other people's mistakes. Not to mention they punish the addict more severe than the dealer. Shouldn't the "pusher" be punished in a different way? Shouldn't the addicts get better treatment?? Instead they don't and I am treated like an addict when I maybe ask for meds once a year if that. I tremble and shake with pain every single day because I am no longer allowed to be given pain medication that can help my chronic pain.

People are killing themselves from pain. If you have chronic pain or a chronic illness you may have, at least once, had that thought flash into your mind.

This is an absolute disgrace. There are pain sufferers who are willing to take drug tests, they are willing to go to pain management doctors, we are willing to do anything it takes so that we can get proper care to appease everyone else. But who is helping us? The doctor who outright said NO I can't help you so he sends you to a pain management dr who also says NO. By the way that is their job...to help manage pain in a safe way. So instead people are killing themselves because they can't function. Or maybe they themselves are now getting drugs illegally because that's the option now.

Politicans are taking OUR choices away because of of something they don't understand.

Someone needs to figure it out before the NEXT EPIDEMIC is suicide from lack of medical care. This healthcare system is BEYOND a joke. If i have to hear one more time to do yoga for severe pain, I am going to flip out.

I was excited. I could have a baby. I could be a mom. I could even have little to no pain for nine whole months. WRONG. I was beyond miserab

Finding out you could have kids after being told you may never have them can bring on a joy you never may have imaged. But with it brings other things, such as feelings of guilt, anger, love, and wondering if all this plus kids can even fit in your soul. They do. Here is my Journey to show it can be done.

So recently I’ve noticed a trend which I know has been around for a long time but in recent days and weeks, I’ve seen it more. Shaming people for being themselves. Most recently I have witnessed woman shaming among other types but this was super recent.

So the story: A picture or status would pop up on a mutual friends social media and some of us comment on it and we will be banter and argue and sometimes it does get heated. But in the past we have all said our opposite opinions made for good discussions and we respected each other. We all need a good discussion based on our views. And it’s great to share our differences and a little heat in the conversation is always welcome but when it starts to catch on fire it’s time to put it away . Anyway, I’ve noticed not just with me but other women are being called “sluts” or even “cunts” and more recently “liberal/feminist cunt or slut”. We are told to be quiet because we are women. And the worst part is not just being called such names but after the conversation has ended a day or two later this person will come back and keep name-calling. And if we continue spouting our opinions we are then called a “feminist ____” immediately followed with some more derogatory words. Why should I have slanderous words flown at me because I have an opinion just like somebody else does?

Slut. Bitch. Whore. These are the words that stick to us and stick inside us, in our guts and dig at our confidence. My opinion is worth just as much as yours and vice versa. When people say horrendous things and spout them as facts you then know there is nothing you can say that will get through to them even just being pleasant to each other. Even showing statistical data suddenly “the government is going into the internet and changing all the information to suit their needs”. I was shamed a few weeks ago when some women came to our house to discuss their views on their religion. When told we do not practice that religion they then said everyone makes mistakes. You can share your views and we can discuss the differences and what we believe in, but don’t tell me I made a “mistake” because I believe or don’t in something. Women vs women in the name calling department is awful. We should be able to have our own differences but unite based on the fact that we share many things together and embrace our differences. But when you hear such disrespectful talk coming out of a man’s mouth, that goes even beyond machismo and mansplaning…it is frightening. Sure they are only words and that is true, but our history shows that entire nations can be moved by what comes out of even one person’s mouth. Verbal threats can drive-through a woman just as badly as a fist through a wall. It’s more than just feminism or a so-called liberal point of view, it’s speaking with such disgust and hatred that it just drips out of your mouth with toxic distain. Of course you have freedom of speech to back you up and if that’s how you really feel about the people around you whether women, men, or whomever you speak of then it is of course your right. But then don’t become aghast when people fight against it or have equally strong opinions that you say “do not count”. If you choose to accost people with your words then be ready to have those same people defend themselves.

I am OVER the slut shaming. The woman shaming. The “I have a vagina” shaming. Religion shaming. In a recent social media conversation displayed, someone said that women invite rape if you drink too much or dress a certain way and it is your fault if you are a victim. Now we are victim shaming women because let’s see… my dress hem might be a little too high?? My lipstick is too red? If you decided to go to a party and drank a little too much and you are assaulted then well…it is your fault because how dare you try to have fun at a party and trust that your life isn’t torn apart by someone who wants to hurt you! I get stay at home mom shaming and when I worked I got shamed into that too. I am told I am lazy for having a chronic disease I can’t help because there are days I can’t do anything more than get up and get dressed. I have witnessed awful comments about people’s sexuality in a negative way if they support someone or something another person does not approve of. There is too much SHAMING and it is EVERYWHERE.

If you must call me a liberal snowflake feminist whore, then go right ahead. I will not let your words show me who I am Or my tribe of women, men, LGTBQ, or ANYONE who is shamed for being who they are. You can have your opinion of me. But you can’t DEFINE me

I see #goals differently than other people. When I work I measure my words in spoons. As someone with #chronicillness I actually do not use the spoon method with how good I feel or if I am in pain. I use it with goals during the day. For those who don't know I actually love collecting little spoons and these are just a few of mine, each representing 100 words completed. No matter what you do to measure time or your goals during the day make sure you keep #persevering
