I appreciate a good, creative Steemit challenge. It's nice to take a break from creating original content, which if you want to make a good job can be challenging and exhausting. I've been nominated a few times, by my man at the b&w photography one and by my dear @tamacvet, which I promise I'll get to soon. I was nominated for this one by another of my favorite Steemit ladies
@ameliabartlett and here you can read her lovely french take on it. The whole challenge was created by
@snowpea, find her original and updated post here. I mean, she's with the #alliance, you know it has to be a good challenge.
So let's go!
Things I absolutely love!
MY HUSBAND
I mean, what's there not to love. He is hot, smart and funny. And speaks German.CHILDREN
My kids, your kids, ''bad'' kids, good kids. Kids in general. I would have millions of them if I was financially able. Kids are funny, honest and brilliant. If you need a break from your kids, bring them over.GERMAN
The most beautiful language in the world. It's soft, rich, and sounds incredibly lovely. And my mans ability to speak it is one of the reasons I fell head over heels for my husband.USED CLOTHES
I'm a sucker for hand-me-downs and 2ndhand clothes. I believe every piece of the clothing worn has a story. I'm all like ''Ask me where I got this dress!'' I believe every piece of clothing handed down to me is a statement of love and care from a friend. I detest fast fashion industry and buy only if I have no other choice. I even started building my Instagram account around the notion of adopting clothes instead of buying new and even though I'm no fashion blogger, I really enjoy it.COFFEE
Coffee is the elixir of life. The holy drink of gods. The medicine. Sunshine in a cup. Hug in a mug. Life itself. Coffee is everything!
Things I'd gladly shove
CONSPIRACY THEORIES
Oh words can not explain how much I detest those. It's all fun and games and amusement until real people start to believe them. I just can't wrap my mind around how can anyone believe those. I'm all for asking questions and challenging authorities but some things folks believe are beyond me. I'm just gonna say two words: Flat-earthers.BABY FORMULA COMPANIES
The lengths these companies are ready to go to create a demand for their product that does not exist in reality is astonishing. I've written about this before and I am not going to go there again but if you are interested in the topic, start with watching Formula for Disaster. ANd that's just the tip of the iceberg.RABBIT BREEDERS
I mean, come on. Do you really have to breed bunnies? Do you know how much of those little furry demons are thrown out every month by owners disappointed that they didn't get a pet-pet but a stubborn, determent chewer of things. I really dislike them.ALCOHOL
My dad was an alcoholic and it is a terrible experience for everyone involved: The addict, the family, the society. I hate it how socially accepted it is to drink and how we tend to glorify day drinking, under stress drinking or drinking in general. I hate beer commercials. And I am fully aware that a, it's a biased hate, and b, it's kind of hypocritical to bash alcohol considering how I would die without coffee and am addicted and not at all ashamed of it.MOM GUILT
Fuck mom guilt. You do you. We are not the same and we all love our kids regardless of the way we raise them. Feed them, clothe them, keep them warm. Give them kisses, snuggles and hugs. Laugh together. When he comes home to you in 15 years drunk, spewing conspiracy theories about rabbit breeders you will not remember for how long you breastfed. I think it is important to distinguish putting so much emphasis on individual responsibility for most mothers and the cracked and broken system we raise our kids in. That sucks and should be dismantled and criticised. Leave the mothers alone.
Join the fun, the rules are simple!
