Social media has a way of taking one sentence and turning it into a full-blown gender war.

Lately, it seems every other video ends with a man saying, "A woman should bring me peace."

Almost immediately, the comments fill with women saying, "Nah... be his karma."

I have a question.

And if anybody knows the answer, I'd genuinely love to hear it.

At what point did women become the unpaid project managers of everybody else's lives?

Seriously.

Because I don't remember filling out an application.

I don't remember interviewing for the position.

And I definitely don't remember accepting the promotion.

For the longest time, I thought those two things were basically the same.

If people needed me, surely that meant they valued me.

Makes sense, right?

They called when something went wrong.

Asked for advice.

Expected me to figure things out.

Clearly I was important.

Or... maybe I was just useful.

When Did Your Dreams Become Optional? I was thinking about this recently, and honestly, it made me a little uncomfortable.

At what point did my goals become the thing I get to if there's time left over?

Every once in a while, the internet finds a topic that gets people surprisingly fired up.

This week, it's a trademark.

More specifically, a creator attempting to trademark the phrase "Hot Girls Read."

There’s something a lot of women start realizing once they finally slow down long enough to look at their life honestly.

The version of you that everybody seemed to love?

She was tired.

There’s a strange kind of guilt that shows up when women start focusing on themselves.

Not because we’re doing something wrong.

But because somewhere along the way, a lot of us were taught that being needed is more important than being fulfilled.

There’s a phase a lot of people go through when they first start charging for what they do.

Or honestly… even when they’ve been doing it for a while.

You look at your prices and think,
maybe this is too high.
maybe people won’t pay this.
maybe I should make it more affordable.

So you adjust.

So for the past few days, social media has been doing what it does best.

The breakup between Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson has been everywhere.

And listen… breakups happen. People date, people separate. That part isn’t shocking.

What is interesting… is the reaction.
