I created an app where you can shop Black Owned Businesses on one app. It has a Mutual Aid section and so far it helped raise $150,000+ people struggling in the community.

Allow me to state, that I cannot think of any American alive today who has done more good for good's sake, than Dolly Parton.

I would put Jimmy Carter up there with her, and that's the only other American, dead or alive, I can think of at that level right now (at least from the modern era.)

There's an easy instant pot recipe on YouTube if you want it. I made birria for the first time like 3 weeks ago and I CANNOT COOK and I didn't mess them up so its a fool proof recipe.

Its so true. My husband's friend of 30+ yrs got a divorce & didn't tell him. He found out from the ex wife when he sent her a happy mom's day text. It had been over 6 months at that point. To me, that man ain't ya friend. But my husband didn't see anything wrong. The whole friend group is like that.

I wish this wasn't a thing. Every time I see a woman on a stage she's wearing drawls or a body suit. It's time to start a new trend
It's rarely flattering.

Just sing the damn song. 🙄
