An Open Letter To My Best Friend
Alexis Shears

Dear Soulmate of a Best Friend,

I want to thank you for always being there for me no matter what the circumstances are. No matter what time of day or whatever you are doing, you drop everything for me and I cannot begin to thank you enough.From day one, I knew we were going to be best friends.You have the biggest heart anyone could ever have and yes I'll admit, sometimes you do annoy me, but I can never stay mad at you for more than a couple minutes. You are the Christina Yang to my Meredith Grey.

" If I murdered someone, She's the person I'd call to help me drag the corpse across the living room floor. She's my person. " - Meredith Grey

This quote is the definition of our friendship. I would do anything for you, no matter if it is wrong or right. You are my person You are my soul mate. I am truly beginning to believe that your best friend is your soul mate and guys are just people to have fun with. Because you never leave me, no matter what. And lets be honest here, you and I both know we come first in any relationship. Having a soul mate isn't always about love. You can find a soulmate in a friendship too, and that is what we did.

All those countless nights just laying in bed with me cuddling because one of us has had a bad day, I will never take for granted. The best thing about those times is we do not have to even talk. we just know that each other is there and that is the most comforting thing anyone can ever do. To all the endless junk food that you and I have eaten to all the Netflix we have watched together and to pouring our hearts out to one another,I will never forget. I will also never take for granted all those Target trips that you take with me because you know that is my happy place. I cannot begin to tell you how many stupid videos and pictures we have taken together take up so much space on my phone but I will never delete them.

You know my weaknesses and my strengths, and yet you do not judge me for any stupid mistakes that I have made in the past or that I have just made hours before calling you to vent. When something happens in my life, good or bad, you are the first person I call. You are my therapist but thankfully enough you don't charge outrageous amounts of money.

You and I don't have to talk every day or even for awhile, especially when life gets busy. When we eventually do it's like nothing ever happened, never skipping a beat. When we finish each other sentences and laugh until both of our stomachs hurt, that is what living in the moment is with you. Heck, we just give each other a look and we know exactly what we are thinking.

When I am being absolutely ridiculous you can just look at me and tell me to " Shut up,you are over reacting " and I will know you are right. You are the only one able to do that. You get inside my head and I thank you for that. You are the only one I truly let my wall down for. You and I have this friendship where we aggressively believe in each other, we defend each other, and we talk each other up. In life,this is very rare, this special connection that you and I have, It's pure magic.

I may not be able to solve all your problems, but I promise that you will not have to face them alone. You are my ride or die literally. We can survive anything together, even when the odds are not supposed to go in our favor, we somehow still come out on top. I love you more each day and I wish you could see yourself the way I see you. I wish you could love yourself the way I love you. Nevertheless, I wish your life is everything you want in life because I truly believe you deserve the world. I will stand by you through all the heartbreaks, all the laughs, tears, good times and bad. I will stand by you forever. My heart will always have a place for you in it, right where you belong.

Love,

Your ride or die

xoxo

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.
