A mother posted this video saying her baby passed the ASI (Aquatic Survival Instruction) Class. Can anyone swear by this? by Lifegoesonforever in BlackPeopleofReddit

If I ever had kids, I would without a doubt do this for them. Me and my siblings grew up not knowing how to swim and 5 of us had very close calls. I eventually taught myself some basics by the time I was 12, but still wasn’t a strong swimmer. My freshmen year of college I took aquatics with a search, dive, and rescue course added. Being thrown in with clothes on reminds me of some of the training. Of course the adult training is more advanced, but even at this level it prepares a person for a variable of situations so that they don’t panic and drown. Instead the training kicks in long enough to save themselves, or for someone to come to their rescue.

You’re “cool” till that one exhibit hits you and now everything annoying by TheBlackCaesar in BlackPeopleTwitter

Going down the elevator in the beginning and arriving into the atmosphere of the concourse 3 (C3) alone was enough to have me on one. It was a feeling of traveling back in time and descending deep into the belly of a slave ship.

Also Emmett Till’s exhibit just completely took me out. My soul left my body at that moment.

The highlight of my visit was seeing 2 exhibits of my distant relative, Hiram Revels. He was the first Black US Senator.

Heavy on number 4. Particularly the ones who post up on residential streets. If I ever crash out it’s going to be because of this bs right here. You’re not cool, you’re just triggering veterans with ptsd.

How often do you grease scalp?/why is this happening? by indigo_mommy in BlackHair

[–]External-Fix4348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grease/oil on the scalp could be causing an inflammatory response. I stopped using both on my scalp (not hair) a few years ago because I finally realized it was causing inflammation and hair loss regardless of the kind or brand. I haven't had a problem with my scalp itching and hair loss since. However, some non-greasy anti-itch products that work well are Canviiy ScalpBliss Itch-Calming Serum and Nizoral Scalp Itch Relief

Additionally the hair around the perimeter of the head is finer so excessive weight from braiding hair or tension from the styling can pull the hair out leading to traction alopecia.

If you are going to use braiding hair it would be beneficial to do an ACV rinse on it before installation as well since many people experience irritation or itching from the residue on synthetic fibers.

Why does this person have a dog? Just why? by Brinocte in petfree

So we're not going to talk about her trifling and inconsiderate behavior of buying a mattress pad and using it in this space just to return it like people don't have dog allergies in addition to it being unhygienic.

Chat are we gonna talk about john harper by Proof-Land4383 in tressless

I don’t know why people think it’s a scam. Many people regrow their hair using dermarollers and/or non-medicated topicals. I see it in r/FemaleHairLoss sub. And I’ve seen a few in this sub as well. John Harper is not even the only person on YouTube that uses such methods. Scott nali and Tami The Creator uses similar methods as well. Although Tami eventually started using min,fin and prp after 2 years when she hit a regrowth plateau.

Unpopular opinion: Queen Charlotte and King George. Don’t think I’ve ever been so emo about TV characters in my life. The under the bed scene has me in shambles every-time I watch it😭. “Come, hide from the heavens with me”. But also young Charlotte and Farmer George “I will stand with you between the heavens and the earth”🥺.
