A lot of pharmacies (esp chain pharmacies like CVS, and Walmart) carry them too.

All KF94 and KN95 Masks from Project N95
Find high-quality KN95 masks and KF94 masks from suppliers that Project N95 has vetted. Note that all links go to third-part sites that Project N95 does not control.

Just a quick message for my fat babies out there:

Tomorrow, protect your peace. Don’t let nobody play in your fucking face. Honor your hunger. Food is not a reward you have to earn.

To everyone else: mind your own damn plate.

Every time I hear DJ! KHALED! I am morally obligated to mutter "Doesn't go down on his wife" no matter where I am or who's around me.

As you can imagine, my teenagers are thrilled every time this happens.

You’re not going to like me if you:

-Only like books written by Cis Het White authors

-Thinks reading isn’t political

-Thinks audiobooks isn’t reading

-Worry about how many books ppl can consume in one month

-A raging conservative

So think carefully before you hit that follow button 😌
