For those with a high IQ, the world can often feel like an endless parade of irritating activities masquerading as fun. While many people enjoy these common pastimes, deeper thinkers often find them overstimulating or simply pointless. Here’s a cheeky glimpse into the world of high IQ individuals and the things they’d rather avoid. 1….
Okay, let’s get real for a sec: Gen Z isn’t canceling marriage—they’re just rewriting what it means to love someone, and honestly, it’s about time. Watching my friends swap stories over brunch or TikTok about “rules” they’re just not buying into is a whole mood. This generation isn’t anti-commitment; they’re just allergic to cringey, outdated…
Words meant to help can sometimes sting—especially when they come from the people who raised us. Boomer parents, with all their stories and good intentions, seem to have a signature script, don’t they? Sometimes those classic lines, said out of habit or love, land with a thud for adult kids like me. It’s wild how…
Let’s be real for a second: it’s not about grand gestures — it’s about doing the right little things (and skipping the wrong ones). There’s something magic about someone remembering the tiny details or just making you feel genuinely seen on an ordinary Tuesday. Some actions make a woman feel cared for, valued, and safe,…
Some of the deepest love is quiet, constant, and never fully understood until years later. Parenting is full of invisible effort—the kind that doesn’t earn applause, doesn’t go viral, and often isn’t even noticed by the children it’s done for.

I’m not talking about the highlight reel stuff—first touchdowns, muddy grins, or the way they hug you like they’re never letting go. I mean the under-the-skin stuff. The kind you only whisper about when nobody else…
It’s never too late for repair — but healing takes humility, time, and truth. When your relationship with your adult child is strained or downright broken, the pain cuts deep. It can feel like a chunk of your very heart is missing. Sometimes, the miles between you are all in the mind; sometimes, you haven’t…
Love alone won’t protect you from burnout — preparation will. Caring for aging parents is like trying to juggle water: everything slips through your fingers just when you think you’ve got it handled. There’s fierce love, yes, but also a wild mash-up of guilt, worry, exhaustion, and the secret heartbreak of watching your parent fade….
You ever buy yourself something at thirty that makes your inner eight-year-old want to do cartwheels? There’s a particular ache that comes from being told “no” for so long, you kind of forget you wanted something at all. But then adulthood hits, and suddenly—money or not—you start tracking down every weird, forbidden, off-limits thing you…
Because surviving childhood adversity changes you — in ways both visible and hidden. A difficult childhood — marked by emotional neglect, instability, abuse, or a lack of safety — doesn’t just vanish when you become an adult.
