What The Fuck, Though?
This lack of kitchen dancing and other stupidity is giving me the blues.
I’m not going to address this other bullshit, this poor sport, giant orange baby. Y’all know what’s happening, y’all got the news.
Around here, it’s been quiet. Unnervingly so. I have found myself doing way too much internalizing, not enough Bitchfacing.
I aim to correct that shit immediately.
I did want to tell y’all about something that made me happy this week, and encourage y’all to do the same.
Y’all know I hang out on some of the assistance threads on Reddit, and my groups on some other platforms often have young ladies seeking advice on whatever nonsense they have happening in their day to day lives. Last month, there was a young lady with a 10-year-old son, essentially begging her former mother-in-law to see the child for Christmas, as her own parents are deceased and it’s the only Grandmother he has.
Well, I got pissed seeing these screenshots, and I said “girl, stop it. Do not beg anyone to love your child. There are many women who would die for the chance to have babies and grandbabies. Hell, I would make a super hot nana”.
So, a bunch of chics chimed in asking me to adopt them, and it got me thinking…. all these kids want is a card, a phone call, just someone to acknowledge them and what their little lives consist of. Well, I decided I would Nana the 10 year old.
Brayden is his name, and he wants to be an engineer.
Between $20 and Amazon delivery I made the boy and his mama so damned happy. It took me a whole ten minutes to work it out.
Now I know not all of y’all want to just hang out in the assistance threads and wait for people to need help. No worries, my lurking ass keeps a list.
If you want someone to help this year, I can give you the name of a mom and child who would love a card, or a small gift, or even just an email. It doesn’t have to cost anything but your time. I will tell you that the difference it made to Brayden and his mom, it meant something to me, especially in the midst of the bullshit I had in my otherwise so called life.
It gave me something to be happy about too.
The only way that we’re going to make this the kind of world that we want to live in is to be the type of people that we want to live among. Be that person. Not the shitty Grandma, but the Hot Nana. Be someone that does something today. I promise you, it will make your problems feel small.
