omg!! PERFECT timing Fran.. I have recently REALLY been trying to be more positive and deliberately trying not to complain as much.. you really do get stuck in that. Also, fond yourself bonding more with people in misery NOT good!!

@marissa-gaskin: Right. I agree as well that there are people who do nothing but criticize, yet they're not working on creating. It's even worse because clearly these people have ideas. It's just they're not nurturing and putting those ideas out there.

@isiah-izzy-g-gentry: touche. i always think those who are highly critical haven't put forth any expression(s) of their own - but you are absolutely right. A critic could very well be a fellow creator, someone who "knows what they're talmbout". Thank you.

Y'all are being very dismissive.

Comment by GirlScout

Why is it that y'all can understand structures of oppression when it comes to race, gender and class but when we try to have a conversation about the inclusion of bigger black bodies presented in different kinds of work, y'all can't understand at all. Y'all act like people are trying to be "Politically Correct" all of a sudden? The Friend Zone was very disappointing this week. Y'all are VERY comfortable in your current and newfound, (Looking at you Assante) thin privilege and it's very evident in your dismissive language and tones. If you don't understand conversations about inclusion, don't fucking have them.

Hey all! The wellness segment was pretty cool. A few years ago, I read 'The Complaint Free World' and it was the same idea. Came with a plastic band for you to switch from wrist to wrist. I did the task for a couple of weeks. Anyhow, I think you should read it. it reminds me of 'The Four Agreeements'.

@bee-161: Queen Latifah was on Another Round and said the same thing. Are we really that surprised though?

Health & Wellness: I consider myself a pretty positive person. However, the one place I struggle with is this whole, " been single forever, when will I fall in love, blah blah thing." Once I start thinking about it, I begin to obsess over it and find myself pretty down and out. SO! In order to help alleviate that, I will be using the rubber band challenge, to improve positive thinking into that aspect of my life. Thanks Fran!
