It’s Not Pie & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #291
Equal Rights For Others Does Not Mean Fewer Rights For You. It’s Not Pie.
I saw this tee shirt in a Facebook ad and I had to have it. The message is one that is near and dear to my heart and the delivery of the message really just cracks me up. In particular, the Not Pie part.
Really, it’s not pie, folks. There are enough rights available to be shared with everyone and no one needs to get a smaller slice of the pie. Because it’s not even pie! If you want some pie, we can have a giant community baking party with endless pies. That might be fun. But in reality, it’s just not pie. It’s human beings all wanting to live their truths as genuinely and authentically as possible. So can we please just stop fighting about the pie?
I bought this tee shirt from Tee Public, designed by Kenneth Hibson, for just $22 and I have worn it at least 6 times already in the 6 weeks since my order arrived. I also bought one for my best goddess girlfriend as a birthday gift because she feels as passionately about this pie as I do.
My favorite thing to wear with my Not Pie tee shirt is my tie dye joggers from Rainbow Zen. It is such a colorful, comfortable, happy outfit that makes me smile every time I wear it. It also makes me want pie. But it really makes me want to share the pie with everyone.
For sizing reference, I ordered an XL and a 2XL in the “female fit” for me and my goddess girlfriend. I am wearing the 2XL and honestly I may be more comfortable in the 3XL. So if you decide you need a Not Pie tee shirt as well, which I think you might, I recommend ordering at least one size up, maybe even two sizes up if you prefer a looser fit.
I styled the rest of my outfit with my black sparkly rope sandals from Nomadic State of Mind and coordinating colorful necklace and earrings from Torrid clearance.
And just to make sure my message is loud and clear, let me repeat it again…
Equal Rights For Others Does Not Mean Fewer Rights For You. It’s Not Pie.
I am keeping it short and sweet (like pie) today. It is time for me to go wake the children. Today is my favorite day of the year…it is the first day of school! It is the day I reclaim the quiet of my house and get myself back to a more productive routine. I hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday! And please remember…it’s not pie!

Thanks so much, Mica! I feel super happy when I wear outfits like this one! I just bought these pants in two different colorways and stashed them away for my Christmas present. I am trying to get ahead of this Christmas game for once!

I noticed it was the first day of term today – saw the kids waiting at the bus stop. Happy days for all the moms. Love the sentiment of your tee. I get so annoyed when people on Twitter are forever yelling about people being “woke” when really it’s just about being kind and inclusive!
shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
Thanks, Gail! It is a very happy day, indeed! But I have been so busy today running errands and prepping for my next room makeover. I am already ready for the weekend! Haha. I agree with you completely that we all just need to be kinder to each other! I hope you have a fabulous week, my friend.

Thanks so much, Rena! I agree with you that it is a very clever way to put it. It totally cracks me up! The first day of school was a success. But today, on the second day, nobody wanted to go to school!

Oh, yes, my friend, I need that shirt!!!! I am forever amazed at how the rights of the few are feared so much by the many! I don’t understand it, and I never will.
I love your outfit…the pants are perfect!!

Thanks, Marsha! I don’t understand it either and I doubt I ever will. I just bought myself two more pairs of these pants in different colorways and I stashed them away for myself for Christmas!

You should get these shirts for both of you and ask her to go twinning with you! Maybe if she wore the message, it would seep into her subconscious and start to change her views. Ha. If it only worked that way, right?!

Love this t shirt, I need one of these to wear instead of constantly explaining this to others. Thanks for linking with #pocolo
shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
Thanks, Suzanne! Unfortunately, the people who need this explained to them are probably the least likely to pay attention to the messages on other people’s shirts! Haha. But that won’t stop me from wearing this shirt!

Aw, thanks so much, my friend! I love this tee and these pants! I have been wearing the pants at least once a week because they are so fun and comfortable. I even bought two more pairs in different colorways that I have stashed away for my Christmas gifts! I am definitely enjoying the quiet of my house. Now I need to get motivated to do all the house things!
