Come on, guys. We are Generation Treat Yo-Self. This I know, for Parks and Recreation—and an article in The Guardian—told me so. Dear my fellow co-blogger, Savvy: I realize this blog post is a bit of an objection to your post “Take Care of Yourself.” You wrote about the importance of self-care and I don’t mean to argue against you. Actually, if I may spoil … Continue reading Why I Don’t Care About Self-Care
I am not the kind of person who offers up politics as a conversation starter. Firstly, I rarely feel informed enough to argue a point in politics. Secondly, I tend to see that both sides have valid points but this tends to annoy people. Thirdly, I am a peace-keeper and politics have a way of disturbing the peace. Politics-talk seems to be more concerned with … Continue reading Should We Talk Politics?
Listen up, fellow extroverts! Guest blogger Taylor Berglund has the secret to being by yourself…and it’s not what you expect. Here’s what he has to say: When Rachel first asked me to write on “being alone,” I thought it was a poorly-concealed jab at my relationship status. After all, being alone comes naturally to me. I’m an introvert, so my problem is the opposite—if I … Continue reading How To Be By Yourself
So! A few weeks ago, I introduced a new app that Savvy and I are designing called EDGE, the Dating App for Interesting Christians. Basically, it was in response to a handful of my friends (admittedly, mostly guys) who expressed how they want to meet a Christian girl – but a really cool, interesting Christian girl. Honestly, I understand this COMPLETELY. When I was single, … Continue reading Manic Pixie Churchgirl
“I would never cheat but, you know, I also realize that as a human being, a hormonal human being, I am capable of it – not saying that I would do it. I wouldn’t. It’s just that people act like they would never when really, everybody is capable of cheating. We can’t be cocky about it, it’s just such an equal possibility for everybody.” After … Continue reading Cheating on You
We asked guest blogger, Ashley, to write about one thing: MEN. Here’s what she has to say: I don’t think I’ve ever sat down to specifically write about men. I typically write about topics when I don’t think there is gender involved (so about men, the power dominant social group generally deems itself invisible[1]) or I set out to specifically highlight women or women’s contributions. … Continue reading Well, Actually… the Patriarchy Hurts Men Too
We asked guest blogger, Vinny, to divulge his thoughts. Here’s what he has to say: What do I think of women? Rachel, you are going to get me assassinated. Well here goes. First, I want to start off by saying that any views I have of women or womankind in general are exactly that. General. This general view is limited and solely based on women … Continue reading What I Think of Women
Are you tired of the same old Christian bachelors and bachelorettes at church every day? Do you wish you could meet someone who shares your faith but is also edgy, cool, and interesting? Look no further than EDGE the dating app for interesting Christians. Savvy and I have designed a system that will help you find your Adam or Eve who is also super, super … Continue reading The Dating App for Interesting Christians
I have a rant coming on. With the upcoming elections and everything that is happening in this world, I keep hearing people talk about how bad the world is. I can’t give an exact example but you guys know what I’m talking about. Just, stuff. Christians in particular have a Biblical basis in arguing that the world is bad. 1 John 2:16 says, “all that is in the … Continue reading the World is Good
“He said anxiety is for weak people,” my brother tells me, quoting a friend of his. I feel a burning in my cheeks and not because I experienced my own panic-like episode a few weeks ago (read about it here). I feel defensive for all my friends who suffer from anxiety, some who’ve gone through horribly traumatic events, others simply a product of the century. … Continue reading Anxiety vs Weakness
