This is why i lose my mind when people talk about politics like it’s a game. This is the direct result of the politics our politicians are “playing”.

Binda is such a sad and pathetic woman, she's nobody but her husband's slave, and the girls should realize that her husbands cheating has made her the most bitter and insecure woman ever. There's no amount of bleach or blonde extensions that can cure her black heart. #DesiBling

I really love my hobbies. I can speak Spanish conversationally now because I taught myself. I can sew. I can make herbal salves and tinctures and skincare. I am ALL in on yoga. Even going to retreats. I love to travel. I love to journal. I love to read. I’m even writing a book!

You’re not supposed to half-listen to this album.
You’re supposed to attend it.
Start to finish. No distractions. No skipping.
Because what @raye has done here isn’t just a collection of songs. It’s a full arc. A woman in real time. Still in it. Still figuring it out. Not waiting to be healed before she speaks.
I went track by track and broke down what’s actually happening underneath it all. The shifts. The defence mechanisms. The moments people laugh past that are actually doing something deeper.
It’s not just music. It’s structure. It’s survival.
And more than anything, it’s honest in a way most people aren’t brave enough to be while they’re still in the middle of it.
If you’ve only had this on in the background, you’ve missed the point.
