Let’s quit everything fun. Just for fun. I noticed my clothes shopping was getting a bit weird and super out-of-proportion with what I actually needed… a little binge-y. So I decided to detox from clothing-shopping for the month. Why? Because shoes (or any other clothing item) are not the boss of me. There are two weeks left in Oct….care to join me and refrain from shopping for the rest of the month? In brainstorming titles for my upcoming podcast episode about this very challenge, I ended up with a bunch of alternate titles and a bit of a silly narrative. Enjoy… *Filling my cart with avoidance *Mind your own beeswax and shopping cart *Keep your eyes on your own shopping cart *Shopping for anything *Those shoes are not the boss of me *Don’t make me return you *Buying to return and to buy again *This is seriously not healthy *Just leave me alone with my shopping cart *Don’t drink? You can stuff your feelings with shopping *Shopping in your own closet is a real-thing Also… If you feel so inspired, google the Bergen Shopping Addiction Scale And if you decide to try the two-week no-shopping challenge, write me an email, or send me a voice memo to my email at getquirkywithit@gmail.com and let me know how it’s going. What’s easy? What’s hard? What kinds of feelings are coming up for you? <3 https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo-97Jvh7br/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=a4wxujbv91ie

Sometimes all a girl needs is some friend time, a hilarious movie or a night out to the comedy club. Nothing like a good belly laugh to shake off stress or lift the spirits. ⠀ ⠀ #onmymind #wellnessjourney #gratitudeeveryday #womeninbusiness #keepitsimple #uplevel #creativeminds #creativehappylife #lifeisart⠀ #makersgonnamake #livecolorfully #Caffeinateandconquer #healthyhappylife #liveinspired #raiseyourvibrations #youbelong #normalisoverrated⠀ #girlbossgang #ladybosslife #wellnesslifestyle #groundedlife #everydangday #outsidethebox #authenticstuff #stuffandthings #lookyloo #allthethings #podcastersofinstagram #podcastinglife https://www.instagram.com/p/BoerX5SBtZR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1p6ur3qa3k9wg

10 black queer lady musicians

This is not everyone but it is a small collection of some of my favorites!

Be Steadwell - Self described “Queer pop” musician. Her style mixes soul with acapella and folk, and her lyrics are usually explicitly gay. Her latest album “Queer love songs” should be on all our pride playlists.

Domo Wilson - 23 year old lesbian rapper/independent artist and youtuber. She released her debut album “hear me now” this year and it’s very emotional and heartfelt. I’d also reccomend checking out her videos!

IAMDDB - I swear this woman is some kind of gay even if I don’t know what. She says everything she does is “for her ladies” Her music has been described as “Trap-Jazz” and her song “Shade” is a current favorite.

Janelle Monae - Bi/Pan concept album mastermind. Her music is very hard to describe, but maybe alt-pop heavily influenced by hiphop? Also she can rap! Just listen to “Django Jane.” She released an album this year titled “Dirty Computer” and a gay accompanying short film of the same name.

Kehlani - Queer contemporary r&b/neo soul artist. Listen to “Honey.” She also did an amazing song with Hayley Kiyoko, as well as some very gay lyrics on other peoples tracks. Her verses in “Playinwitme”, “Body Count” and “Icy GRL” are some examples.

Kelela - Queer Ethiopian-American Alternative r&b/Electronic musician. She’s very inspiring, has a lot of interesting takes on the music industry, and makes awesome music.

Kodie Shane - One of my all time favorite artists, Kodie Shane is like a queer hiphop goddess delivering more and more gay energy upon us every year since she started. Listen to everything she’s ever made. Start with “Sing to her”, it’s her latest single.

Syd/The Internet - Syd is a lesbian r&b artist who also fronts the r&b group The Internet. She regularly uses feminine language in her songs and her mvs are the greatest things ever. Also, look at that cute lil smile!

Tiara Thomas - Tiara is a pop/hiphop/r&b artist. She’ll never label her sexuality because she doesn’t want it to become bigger than her music. Some gay songs are “Retro 1’s” and “I’m still at the bar.”

Tiffany Gouche - Lesbian r&b/soul singer. Her EP “Pillowtalk” is good as hell and she recently released three new singles “Queen Tings”, “Dive” and “Down.”

The Gender Neutral Words You Need to Know for Back to School …We can avoid erasing women and nonbinary people from everyday conversations by using gender neutral descriptions. Some examples include: Folks, folx or everybody instead of guys or ladies/gentleman Humankind instead of mankind People instead of man/men Members of Congress instead of congressmen Councilperson instead of councilman/councilwoman First-year student instead of freshman Machine made, synthetic or artificial instead of man-made Parent or pibling instead of mother/father Child instead of son/daughter Kiddo instead of boy/girl Sibling instead of sister/brother Nibling instead of niece/nephew Partner, significant other or spouse instead of girlfriend/boyfriend or wife/husband Flight attendant instead of steward/stewardess Salesperson or sales representative instead of salesman/saleswoman Server instead of waiter/waitress Firefighter instead of fireman “Some people may argue that such concerns are unimportant, but if you consider that language is the primary filter through which we perceive the world, it’s obvious that it affects how we relate to and make judgements about one another,” Dowd tells Teen Vogue. “Until now, history has been written and told by men, to the detriment of others. Part of any attempt to create a society in which all people – regardless of gender, sexuality or race – have equal opportunities and freedoms is to use language that no longer excludes certain groups or creates unconscious bias.”  Full article by Teen Vogue
