The criminalization of black America

There are more African American adults under correctional control today — in prison or jail, on probation or parole — than were enslaved in 1850, a decade before the Civil War began.
As of 2004, more African American men were disenfranchised (due to felon disenfranchisement laws) than in 1870, the year the Fifteenth...

A lot of venues, your sales person is your wedding coordinator, but I know they exist. It’s just extra money. I think theres a woman in Newport who does wedding coordination under Weddings with Love or something bc its her last name.

but what could be cute with the seeded card is attaching it to a small planter with flowers as the favor, and then you have a favor people won’t forget to bring home, and even an extra centerpiece embellishment if you make it clear on the table.
the only problem with flowers/a planter is they cost more...

Hi— just saw this… What could be cute is that you can combine the card and the favor possibly into one thing, with a plantable seating card attached to it. I don’t know what you had in mind for a favor though
That was what I was hoping to do. My idea was to have plantable escort cards, you know with...

hellolmc replied to your post: Wait so I accidentally started looking at “reception cards”
Some people do. Most of the weddings I have helped plan, folks have directed guests to a wedding website, the lists then dump into excel which is super easy to use for seating and food stuff.
THAT is a good thing to keep in mind. i will be looking into that. I just looked up all the things a...

and they all say “the pleasure of your company is requested at the reception blah blah blah” and does this mean that it’s like the golden ticket in a wedding invitation? like this is how people passive aggressively say “I want you to see me get married and I want your gift but I don’t want to feed you”?
Is this still a thing people do?
Is this a thing I can...

weshouldjustgotobrooklyn answered your question: How many people would actually plant a seeded plantable place card received at a wedding?
OH MY GOD!! That is so cool
it’s a really cool idea, and I’m all for doing it except that plantable seeded paper is more expensive than plain old paper. So instead of spending like 50 cents (or even less) per place card for the reception for...

researching menstrual cups is hard work
i almost wish it was like when I had braces where they took a mould of my entire mouth and fitted things to it. I wish there were some way to take a mould of my vag and send it to some fancy place where they could take specific measurements and find me the perfect menstrual cup.
They’re all so expensive it’s not like I can just buy a few, try them on, and send back the ones I...

Hate the gym? You burn about 200 calories during 30 minutes of active sex. An hour of sex would be equivalent to running up to 5 miles (8 kilometers).

If you live in Alaska, California, Hawaii, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Vermont, or Washington, pharmacists can prescribe and dispense EC even if you are under 17.

Hey tumblr
How do we feel about sandalwood fans with customized tags as wedding favors? It’s going to be hot out, so they’re functional, and I can afford the number I need for my wedding, and they look SO damn pretty, and I think they go along with the “old money” feeling I want my wedding to embody. For anyone who hasn’t heard, I plan on having a “rich old money...
