Coffee & Shrubs

@KevOnStage This is the reason why I put together every piece of furniture in my home my self.

Men who are with hyper independent women this is a safe space to share your difficulties.

@heavensbvnny My weighted blanket was a total game changer. Literally use it every night, no matter how hot. It's like a hug.

One of the strangest pieces of information I read in psychiatry is that people who cannot sleep without a blanket, even in the summer, this is called (self-soothing), and this is one of the ways in which the body needs security, and the blanket is not just a piece of cloth, but it is an alternative embrace and a means of protection and security

@jodecicry Planning to do this with a few of my pieces!

Had a piece of glass cut to protect the top of my media console like our grandmas used to do

Yo, this elementary school threw a straight-up MINI MICHAEL JACKSON concert and the kids ATE IT DOWN 😂🔥

This is so cute. I recommend 🥰🥰🥰

@dfwmenah @QuickestTempa It sucks that you can't be sure whether dope pics like this are AI or not.

girl shows a striking resemblance to her mom in her early ’90s photos 😍

@bellewerx @shesbonky Yup. Give them kids Pepto.

@shesbonky My first guess would be heartburn. 😭

nobody prepares you for the part of parenting where you have to diagnose what it means when your kid complains that their "heart feels minty"

@MissSassbox She is so charismatic and seems like she could charm just about any decent man she wants. I'm perplexed as to why she ended up with her ex.

that was such an elegant way of saying he could talk her through it

@lolimcold This is insane. I can't believe anyone would do that and think a person would stick around and continue to date them. Like WTF?!

hey so this is him gauging your pain tolerance and how you will react!!!! this will escalate!!!!!! stay safe and block his bitch ass

With everything we are hearing right now about ticks this seems like good information to share. “Here’s what I’ve learned after more ticks than I care to count. First, whatever your uncle told you, forget it. No matches. No nail polish. No Vaseline. No soap on a cotton ball. All of those do the same terrible thing, they stress the tick out, and a stressed tick empties its gut back into the bite before letting go. Which, if you think about what that actually means for a second, is literally how Lyme and the rest get transmitted so you’re not speeding up its exit. You’re making it throw up into you. Fine-tipped tweezers. Grip right where the mouthparts enter the skin, not the body, the head. Pull straight up, steady, no twisting, no jerking. It’ll feel like it’s resisting because it is, the mouthparts are barbed. Just keep the pressure on and it lets go in a few seconds. If a piece breaks off in the skin, leave it alone. Your body pushes splinters out. Digging around with a needle does more damage then the fragment ever would. Clean it with alcohol or soap. Wash your hands. Now here’s the part most people skip: don’t flush the tick. Tape it to an index card. Clear packing tape right over the body, write the date and where on your body it was, and stick the card in a drawer. If you come down with anything weird in the next 30 days, rash, fever, joint pain, that flu-that-isn’t-flu feeling, that tick goes with you to the doctor. Some labs will test the tick itself, which is faster and often more reliable than waiting for antibodies to show up in your own blood. A dated tick taped to a card is one of the most useful things you can hand a doctor who’s trying to figure out what’s wrong with you. The other thing worth saying out loud: if the tick was engorged when you pulled it, and you can’t swear it was off your body within 24 hours, call your doctor that same day. Don’t wait for a rash. Fewer than three out of four Lyme cases even produce the classic bullseye. A single preventive dose of doxycycline within 72 hours of a deer tick bite cuts the Lyme odds way down, and most docs in tick country will write that prescription without giving you a hard time, especially if you walk in with the tick taped to a card and a clear timeline.”

@KeyKeytoMarz The oven is the only correct way to cook bacon.

People who cook their bacon like this pisses me off!!!

Out here texting the text man for texts. 😔

@itsme_urstruly What's wild is seeing bald eagles flying around. They were #2 on the endangered species list (behind pandas) when I was a kid. NEVER saw one in the wild. NOW, my kids knew how to identify them in the sky before I did and I'm still amazed everytime I see one flying over.

when i was in elementary school i really thought opening TIME CAPSULES would be a much bigger part of my adult life

@itsme_urstruly Ahhh, you must be a Gen X'er.

Discover jewelry that tells your story. The hOle Bangle, crafted in Miami, blends bold design with lasting quality.

@YaBoyRoshi OMG it died of embarrassment!

IM CRYING! 😂😂

@thecimonalisa Yup. Would cause discoloration on my big toe. Thought it was fungus, Dr said it wasn't. Happened every summer and would take a year to fully grow out. Literally took me 20 years to put 2&2 together. I use toe press ons now.

i'm no podiatrist, but my podiatrist said gel pedicures are damaging nails.

@ANTHONYBLOGAN @BougieAva @KevOnStage Yup! I have the same one!

@BougieAva @KevOnStage Nope, not at all. Toner lasts forever too.

Help me settle a debate. Do you have a printer in your home RIGHT NOW and what generation are you?

@KevOnStage Yes. Young gen x. Went ahead and splurged for a laser right after covid hit. Great investment, we literally use it almost daily.

I started logging calls and sending demand letters for TCPA violations (I have been on the DNC list for 14 years). First time I did this, the company paid me $1500 and this year another company's legal counsel "called my bluff" so I filed suit, settling weeks later for $7500. Many are hard to track down, using virtual mailboxes and registered agents, etc - but there are ways to find them. These dirtbags must pay.
