How many of you do meal planning/meal prep? What tips can you share with those of us just now dragging our greedy butts to the table?
The problem for me is there are very few foods I want to eat repeatedly during a week. Also, I crave different stuff at different times. Finally, my schedule is super busy, so that's a factor too.
Thank you for all these responses! You guys have really inspired me! I think I'm going to start out by cooking a bunch of boneless skinless chicken thighs (I prefer dark meat, sorry) and chopping them up. I can pull that out and dump it in a skillet with seasonings to make
different stuff like tacos, bowls, stir fry, curry etc.
Currently mapping out my food plan in Trello.

Nah, we gotta discuss how Shirley had the audacity to pick up her rotary dial phone, take all that time to dial Barbara's number and confront Barbara about a no good ass man who was probably lying to both of them anyway
Shirley told Barbara that she found her name and number by going through her "old man's pockets."

Already, we know Shirley is insecure as fuck, likely because the nigga has previously given her reason to be. That's problem number one.
Why she playing on Barbara phone instead of confronting that man? If she was going through his pockets, then we know that this wasn't the first time the gentleman in question has had Shirley out here looking like a gotdamn fool.

So, my Instacart shopper kept marking stuff as "not in stock." Turns out, everything was there, he just didn't know where to look in the store.

Has this happened to anyone else?
I wasn't a bitch about it, and I always tip 30 percent in advance, but come on?

When he eventually found the stuff (he's at my neighborhood store so I told him where to look), I thanked him profusely just cause I don't want to be the irritating customer but also?
I don't want to have the laziest Instacart shopper ever. Like what is the threshold/requirement for them to find items in the store?

Zelle is trending because some people are classist and elitist. Don't try to shame people for not having bank accounts.
According to the FDIC, as of 2017, almost 54% of black households, 44.5% of American Indian/Alaskan house- holds, and 43.3% of Hispanic households are either unbanked or underbanked.
Unbanked meaning no one in the household has a bank account. Underbanked meaning although there may be a person with a bank account, they go outside the bank for things like check cashing, payday loans, money orders etc.

Lauryn Hill's daughter got on iG and spoke about her relationship with her mother, the absence of her father, growing up watching her mother cry over her father, the way her mama used to beat her with a belt -- basically everything.
Here's the video. It's two hours long. She talks a lot about her trauma. She also talks about changes her mother has made and how she is proud of the changes her mom has made

She really goes into how her daddy ain't shit and wasn't in her life. Which, this post on her IG also alludes to

Prejudice, racism and bigotry are all different things, and I need you all to learn, study and memorize the definitions before you go around throwing those words around all willy nilly as if they are interchangeable. Allow me to assist.
Racism is the only of those three words were there is a power dynamic involved. Here in the United States, white people have historically had that power and continue to do so today. They use that power to create and to uphold systems of inequity and inequality.
(Also, inequity and inequality don't mean the same thing and are not interchangeable either. learn those definitions too. )

All right, let's break this bullshit down. Cause this is some extreme bullshit.
1) NO ONE in the weed game is driving 4 hours to get a couple pounds of weed. Like NO ONE. There's weed in Louisiana. TRUST. It wouldn't be worth the gas or the effort to do this.
2) His child's mother lived with him, I assume. Any of my sisters who (like an auntie you might know) have dated any type of drug dealer know that if your man gets arrested, shot, killed whatever and there is going to be any type of investigation, you take all the drugs out of
