Ins
Touching grass (literally)
Books
A balanced and intentional use of social media
Critical thinking and media literacy (urgent)
Empathy, justice, and self-preservation all rolled into a loving package
Doing all the things you loved as a teen before social media changed you
Looking like a goblin but also like a hot grandma at the same time
Mum jokes
Women forming silly little clubs like men do, and doing silly little activities together but in their own way (community, community, community)
