New Month, New You: Self-Care Tips You Can Use!

The term self-care has really kicked in a lot over the past five years due to a variety of reasons. People realizing they don't have to be online as much as they need to. People realizing they probably don't need all those items they own. People realizing they need to be outdoors more. But what is self-care? It is the practice of taking care of oneself to preserve

Weird, But Cool Father’s Day Gifts from Amazon!

Father's Day is around the corner. And while traditionally, the Father's Day gifts have been along the lines of a necktie, coffee mug, golf-related items, and maybe a massage chair, things have been considerably better over the years. If you know a father who doesn't want the stereotypical items like a tie, a mug, and some other wackalicious things, and wouldn't mind having something a bit kooky, check out

Sean Combs Should be Hit by a Train

Tupac was right. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41qC3w3UUkU I've debated if I wanted to say something about Puffy, as I've always known him as and still called him that. I've heard rumors for years, decades even, that he was abusive to every woman he'd ever been associated with (including that rather famous one that Mariah Carey does not know). The newly uncovered video only confirmed what many people have known for years - Puffy is

I Wasted My Life Reading Before We Were Innocent

I normally don't subscribe to book clubs nor do I listen to any celebrity that has a book club. It's not that I don't trust them (well, no, that's actually a part of it), but I also know what I'm into may not be what everyone else is feeling. I like to read books on my own leisure and not be pressured to read it in a certain amount

If You Are A Mama, Stand UP!!!

To all of the mothers out there - whether this is your first Mother's Day or your umpteenth; whether you are welcoming a new child into the world or mourning one you lost; whether this isn't the Mother's Day you'd envisioned, I want to celebrate you! Being a mother is tougher than anyone can imagine and we often wear a lot of hats - chauffeur, tutor, coach, cook, maid,

Drake Needs to Apologize to SA Victims Now

via GIPHY Dear Drake, The odds of you reading this are slim. But this isn't for you; it's for your fans who listen to your music. Specifically, your fans who are sexual assault victims. I'm not going to go back and forth on my feelings on the beef or if I'm a Kendrick fan; neither is relevant here. I want to talk to you about what you said on The

5 Authentic Palestinian/Gaza Charities to Support

Before I begin this post, let me start off by saying I support the children in Gaza. I also believe that if you support Palestine and the Gaza Strip, it doesn't mean you're anti-semitic nor are you anti-Israel. This post is mainly to support those who need it the most in the Gaza Strip. I have my rather controversial views on the recent college campus protests happening here in

This is What 14 Years of Marriage Looks Like!

Today is our 14th wedding anniversary. Crazy, huh? Our wedding was crazy simple - we went down to the Beverly Hills Courthouse with some friends. Other couples were there and I remember it was a rather overcast day, but it became sunnier as they day grew. Our name was called and we got married by a Justice of the Peace. And we were married in five minutes. Sometimes, I

Our Cat, Sushi, Turned 13! Yippee!

This past week, our oldest girl, Sushi, turned 13. Can you believe it?! So crazy. I officially have a senior citizen in my home. It's been such a joy to have Sushi in our house. We call her Ms. Sassafras, Old Bat, Old Girl, and plenty of other nicknames depending on her mood (because you know, that's how cats are!). Still, if it wasn't for Sushi, we probably wouldn't
