For any folks who don't know of me already that may stop by, I am neurodivergent af (autism + ADHD), so my manner of speaking and responding may be different than what you are used to. Just know that I have a big big heart and a big big potty mouth. Rarely if ever do I mean any harm. Thanks.

🩸 our 5 little rules:

1) imagine others complexly
2) if we feel bad do some combo of eat food, take a little walk, take a nap, take a shower
3) no self deprecation
4) always be willing to admit we're wrong
5) never compromise on our boundaries or self respect

Noticed my bananas were real ripe, so I made banana bread. Then I noticed my milk was about to expire, so I made homemade ice cream. Then I needed room in the fridge so I made agua fresca to use up some cucimbers. And then I realized I needed to make chile verde before the peppers went bad. Whew!

Sure, allow your children to access products made by an industry that fights to keep asbestos in its talc. 🙄

THE beauty industry is incredibly predatory, there are no real regulations to ensure product safety, and KIDS DON'T NEED A FUCKING SKINCARE REGIMEN FFS
