1. I have accepted everything you have done in your life with no judgment

Because I have my own skeletons in the closet that I would hope you could accept too and not judging is what our friendship is based on.

2. I will forgive you no matter what happens

If we are friends, chances are there is limited you could do to me to make me not want to forgive you. I am confident that nothing you do will ever make me too mad.

3. I will never walk away mad at you

Because you never know when it will be the last time you see someone and you are too important to me

4. If we fight, I will accept my role

I know I'm not perfect and I understand that at times I can be at fault too. So if we ever fight I take responsibility for my actions

5. I will constantly get on your nerves

I'm super annoying but you have to deal with it because you love me.

6. I will remind you how much you mean to me

Everyone deserves to know their worth, so I will continuously remind you that you are my friend no matter what and you are important.

7. I will love you at your worst and at your best

because I know you would do the same for me

8. I will support every decision you make

Regardless of how I feel about what you're doing, if you think it's the right choice, I will be your biggest supporter and fan and I will also be there to pick up the pieces if it doesn't go the way you wanted it to.

9. Our friendship is defined by laughter

Because I honestly believe that laughter is the best medicine and humor can truly heal any wound.

10. If you hurt, I hurt

You bet I'd be there for you if you ever needed me to beat someone up because you can never be in the wrong.

Thank you for also giving me your friendship in return. You mean so much to me.

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.

Queen B sums it up for us.

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.
