Quick reminder about these roundups; these are articles I find interesting, they don’t always represent my own feelings on a subject. Lately I’ve been getting some nasty e-mails the posts I’ve been including. So I just want to take a moment to clarify why I share what I share.

I include a variety of articles in these roundups. Some of them because they’re great resources on a particular subject, some because they gave me all the feels, some because they’re newsworthy, and some because I find them interesting. Some have opinions and/or perspectives that vary from my own.

I don’t share things I find outright hateful or deceitful, but I am willing to share thought provoking posts that make me see things from a different point of view. If that makes you mad then so be it. You can’t please everyone.
