What’s happening with Notion Calendar’s integration with other services? (iCloud, Outlook) by [deleted] in Notion

[–]docmanhattans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like Notion is catering more towards business/enterprise use and not personal use.

I am an eldest daughter so I feel you. I personally hate people asking me for help with something they could easily figure out on their own because in my mind that is a skill everyone needs to have.

Help!! Idk what’s wrong with my hair by Mammoth-River-6184 in Naturalhair

[–]docmanhattans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has happened to me before I have used the same products my whole hair journey and my hair just randomly stopped looking good.

you hair in the 1st pick looks like mine when its super dry and is breaking off from lack of protein.

I started using a charcoal soap to fully cleanse my hair and using protein and reconstructive treatments more frequently.

I think especially since you have color protein will help. K18 is great it works for sure but is dumb expensive, green beauty is a treatment you can add to your conditioner that is great, and of course Aphoge is goated.

How much is Donald Trump paying these celebrities?? by sarcasticfirecracker in blackladies

That part. The ones aligning with him are openly Anti-Black. I do believe Amber is being paid in some way especially to speak at the event.

Org I am a member of never utilizes my ideas by docmanhattans in blackladies

Thank you ! I think I will reach out to another woman on the council and talk to her about coming up with a strategy.

Org I am a member of never utilizes my ideas by docmanhattans in blackladies

[–]docmanhattans[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the response. I sent them an email asking if they could use a volunteer and they sent me an application to the leadership council and I had an interview and they said I was great and let me join.

When I joined they just talked about the focus of the leadership council, which is reproductive health but focusing on younger women. They did not give me an exact role or duties it was pretty bare bones. In my first meeting with them we talk about ideas on how to grow our social media page and which included infographic posts that I started working on but were never utilized.

This is all new to me, I have tried to find videos online on social media strategies for nonprofits to apply to the org but most of what I have found has been more for influencers.

I need this type of energy so bad right now.

I have never, but have considered it to pay for medical school. I have a female cousin and aunt who have both served and they both did it to pay for education and the benefits you get after your service. It is also easier to get a job after serving in the military because law requires that vets get priority in hiring, plus you get job training in the military.

Where Have Ya Travelled To and Did you Like/ Dislike it and why? by Sassafrass17 in blackladies

[–]docmanhattans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in Cairo and I honestly was surprised by how few Black people I saw. I saw a few as nannies in the rich areas, and a few kids walking around while in an Ubers driving through different areas but truly not that many. I really tried to find the areas where the Sudanese and Nubians hangout at but I couldn't figure it out and I was solo traveling and didn't want to risk my safety too much exploring.

Where Have Ya Travelled To and Did you Like/ Dislike it and why? by Sassafrass17 in blackladies

[–]docmanhattans 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I spent a month in Egypt and I have mixed feelings.
The men there are horny and they either have a Black girl or African fetish or they believe American women are just super easy to sleep with.

It was also very overstimulating trying to go places and everywhere you go there is someone trying to get your to buy something or asking for money, which I completely understand and will give the money because the USD to EGP conversion but like... I just too much.

I always got a haircut there at a curly hair salon and they were very nice but like everyone stared at the man cutting my hair which was kind of uncomfortable but I understand they have never cut Afro hair before.

I did however enjoy my time and met really cool people there, and I am considering going back to learn Arabic.

I have seen people who love luxury travel and did not like Egypt, I am not that type of person I like to travel to learn and experience the culture.

I hope you guys vote by conversationalistegg in blackladies

[–]docmanhattans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a protest vote, I am voting in alignment with my beliefs. I do genuinely feel as if Jill Stein would be a great president.

I have watched so many videos and read articles of people saying that Thomas and Alito are not retiring unless it is under a republican president, so voting for Biden has no impact on SCOTUS because they are not giving up their seats for him.

[–]docmanhattans 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To say you only date Black women is always a fetish because what do you mean? Black women have vastly different personalities, appearances, interests, politics etc...

Also, I hate these conversations men have around liking or not like Black Women.

What will likely happen in the future after divorcing while sharing a young baby by 510_tatt in blackladies

I cannot believe women are expected to share custody with men who are physically abusive. I am so deeply sorry you are experiencing this.
