6 Signs That You Are The Mama Bear Of Your Friend Group
Wikia

Every friend group has a "mom" of the friend group. Here are some sure fire signs that you, or another member of your squad is the mama bear.

1. Has at least minimal first aid supplies on hand at all times

I.E. band-aids, ibuprofen, benadryl, tissues, sunscreen, and if she has experience, you may even have a small hospital in that small MK clutch.

2. Has given out unsolicited advice on multiple occasions

This is more than one of those chats that you have when you are hungover at noon on a Sunday, this is a chat that you can have at 2pm at Starbucks on a Wednesday. This normally entails a chat about how to make sure that you are getting the most out of your life, and following your dreams rather than telling you to go out with the cute Barista at your favorite coffee shop.

3. Takes care of you when you are sick

Friends that bring you soup and or gatorade when you are sick are the best, and especially when they chill out and watch the ridiculously cheesy rom-coms, and not worried about the germs that are soon to be infesting them as well.

4. You always DD

You will always have a ride home, because mama bear takes care of her cubs

5. Keeps a schedule of events

Mom always has to keep everyone's schedules in order so that no one misses anything, and they can plan activities around everyone else's schedules. A quick trip to the mall involves looking at 5 different calendars all at the same time, and planning an exact start and end time to make it work for everyone so no one is left out

6. Breaking up fights

This is a big one, girls tend to bicker, and get upset and mom always has to make sure that at the end of the day they hug it out and no one leaves upset.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
