8 Signs You're Too Festive To Handle
Odyssey

First of all, I've never seen a more accurate depiction of myself than the following:

I'm the type of person that's feeling holly and jolly as soon as my Halloween festivities are over. This year, I was already done going to all your typical costume parties by the 23rd. After that, I began dying for November to come, so that it would finally be somewhat acceptable to start jamming out to Mariah Carey and decorating everything I own in sparkly reds and greens.

November is finally here, and believe me, I've been jingling my friggin' bells since 11:59 P.M. on Halloween. I'll never know why, but I'm always at my happiest when it starts to get cold outside and every store you go to is decked out in Christmas decorations. I guess they call it "the most wonderful time of the year" for a reason, right? (I'm sorry, I hate my puns just as much as you do.)

If you think you're a hoe hoe hoe for the holiday season, you can probably relate to these 8 festive feelings.

1. Your Christmas playlist is loaded up and ready to be heard by anyone who enters your car or house.

And it's fully completed with this gem.

2. You've made, like, three cups of hot cocoa per day for the past week.

Complete with whipped cream, marshmallows, and maybe some extra flurries of hot cocoa powder or holiday-colored sprinkles.

3. All of your favorite blankets, fuzzy socks, and big sweaters are making a reappearance.

This is the most acceptable time of the year to look like a grandparent, why miss that opportunity?!

4. You're beginning to eat peppermint-flavored everything.

Gotta follow the four main food groups: "Candy, candy canes, candy corn, and syrup."

5. You're legitimately offended by people who think November is "too early" for, what I call, Pre-Christmas.

You're just too late, ya big ole Grinch.

6. You probably want to have a gingerbread house-building gathering at some point in the near future.

These might be the most competitive of all Christmas festivities, but they're so fun and definitely worth it.

7. You're pregaming for the "25 Days Of Christmas" with movies that subtly incorporate Christmas into them.

Let's face it -- any movie with Christmas in it is a Christmas movie. "Mean Girls"? Christmas movie. "Edward Scissorhands"? You guessed it. Christmas movie.

8. You're already almost done Christmas shopping.

You have to go full-blown Santa on your loved ones. Nobody who you care about will end the Christmas season empty-handed!

1. Nails done hair done everything did / Oh you fancy huh

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.
