But what I don't love? Bringing secular things to church. This may come off harsh - after all, if the… Continue reading Don’t Bring Peppa Pig To Mass
The Glorification of Toxic Femininity
So, in response to the Gillette ad I've seen a lot of people (mainly men) saying things like "Imagine if women had this happen to them! The feminists would be outraged!" along with "Theres no such thing as "toxic" masculinity" etc. While I already addressed the one about toxic masculinity in a earlier post I… Continue reading The Glorification of Toxic Femininity
Toxic is Just Another Word For Sinful
Hey, just a heads up that this post implies some transgender ideology. That is in no way the intent and in fact the opposite intent is intended - That our sex has very little to do with our personality.

The Funniness of Grief
Grief is a funny little thing, for those of you that don't know it's been pretty prominent in my life lately. My dad died in October 2018 and my grandmother died 6 weeks after.

The Spoon Theory & Food
If you have chronic illness of some sort you’ve probably heard of the spoon theory before. It’s a basic theory that Christine Miserandino made up with to explain to her friends how much energy she has. An example of how spoons could be divided up is below: This is a very handy method, but… Continue reading The Spoon Theory & Food
On What Defines A Right
I got into a debate with someone in a Facebook group just now about what defines a "right." Their logic was - clean water is not a right because it requires the services of another person. So I asked what they defined as a right, and they dodged the question for a bit, before finally… Continue reading On What Defines A Right
