To coffee date or not coffee date? That is the question.

Image
Vote in the poll below and see what others think...   Recently there has been a lot of talk around the concept of "coffee dates", and whether they are an acceptable form of dating or not. Many people, mainly women, have expressed their opinions on the matter - with arguably the majority of them preferring not to be taken out on a coffee date. Being a woman of a certain age (ahem) who finds herself still wading around in the dating pool, I couldn't help but follow the discussions around the topic in an effort to determine my own stance. Would I accept an invitation to a coffee date? Should any woman/man? Are coffee dates acceptable? To be honest, in my years of dating as a younger woman, I had never been asked out for coffee. In the nineties and 2000's, which were my dating eras, I don't think that was even a thing. It was typical for guys to take you out to a movie or dinner or both for a first date. Teens perhaps could be seen getting a booth at a specialty ice

Taylor Casey's disappearance - Are the Sivananda Ashram Retreat and the Bahamian authorities being evasive?

Image
     Points gleaned from Brian Entin's latest report linked below. Allegedly:  There were no Missing Persons posters at the resort or the Bahamaian police station for Taylor Casey.   There was allegedly a "wall" of Missing Persons posters at the station - again none for Taylor Casey.  The mother found the  Sivananda Ashram Yoga Retreat | Sivananda yoga bahamas  personnel that she   spoke to to be "evasive".  They were given a "tour" of the facilities but allegedly "scolded" when they tried to take pictures.   The Yoga Retreat personnel allegedly cited "guest privacy" as the reason why the entire facility had not been searched.  View Brian Entin's report and interview with Taylor Casey's loved ones below: Care to leave me a tip or donation?

Missing woman in the Bahamas - Find Taylor Casey!

Image
 A 41 year old woman from the US named Taylor Casey, has gone missing in the Bahamas. She was on a solo vacation to an innocuous looking yoga resort named the Sivananda Ashram Yoga Retreat . Taylor has been a yoga enthusiast for many years and so naturally she was excited to visit the center, telling her mom and friends that she was looking forward to learning new yoga techniques to teach to others. She went alone to a hugely popular vacation destination - the Bahamas - to a resort that was very high profile, having been endorsed by Gwyneth Paltrow's lifestyle brand Goop. She called her mother regularly and sent pictures from her vacation. She was reportedly not a person to stay out of touch for very long, nor to take hasty actions that would isolate herself from those she loved. She should have been safe. But she's missing, and noone, not the resort, nor the Bahamian authorities, can say why. The information I received was mostly gleaned from the report by Brian Entin for Ne

Youthforia's Colorist Stunt

Image
  Ok #YouthForia, come to the front! So apparently YouthForia is a small cosmetics company run by a woman named Fiona Co Chan. She received  $400,000 to invest in starting her company after a successful appearance on tv's Shark Tank. Fast forward to today, the company produces cosmetics that are favoured on Tik Tok and have been featured by several influencers in their videos. The issue arose when they put out a foundation line that didn't have many colours for darker skin tones. A few black tik toker's reviewed the foundation line and complained about the lacking shade range.Now from what I can tell, there wasn't like a huge outcry or anything. It was just typical reviews by average black content creators stating factual information helpful to their mainly black followers. Well, it appears that YouthForia got triggered! Because what they did next was unprecedented in the history of  dumb things cosmetic companies have done to alienate consumers.  How in the year 2024 w

Man vs Bear? or Woman?

Image
So this hypothetical question has been making the rounds lately on social media. Basically if I get the gist of it right, the question is posed to women, and is intended to highlight the state of male/female relations in today's world. In essence, women are asked whether they would prefer to encounter a strange man or a wild bear, if they found themselves lost and otherwise alone in the woods.  Apparently the majority of women have been answering - Bear! Whether being truthful or trying to prove a point, most ladies online are arguing that they would feel safer meeting a wild bear in the woods than an unknown man. Many of the explanations I have read center around the same point - that wild bears generally want to avoid people and leave them alone, whereas a strange man encountering a vulnerable woman could be more threatening and dangerous to her.  Predictably, quite a few men have been ruffled by this general response, and have gone online to chastise, berate, advise and otherwis
