Schools are charged with providing a safe, nurturing and equitable environment for students and teachers. Supporting educators who are trying to create that environment by helping fund their racial equity projects is a good place to start.
In the midst of grief, we find ourselves doing odd things. Though our efforts will never result in bringing a lost loved one back, we'll do anything to feel as though they are even a fraction closer to us. Even if that means leaving a voicemail we know will never be heard. Doing an innocent spring cleaning on her phone, one woman discovered she had hundreds of voicemails left by a stranger, all the same person.
Unbeknown to her, she had been receiving these messages since July In the video, which now has more than 3 million views, the caption reads: "All the voicemails consist of 'I miss you' and 'I hope you're okay' and long pauses and what sounds to be soft crying?
Seconds later, we discover that the messages came from an older woman who lost her husband, and that since , she had been calling his number which is not his number anymore to let him know she still misses him.
The phone revealed she had consistently rang multiple times a day. One of the voicemail clips plays, and we hear "It's just me, you've been on my mind. I'll catch you later, bye. The TikTok user, unsure of what to do, asked for advice in the comments section, writing "should I answer her calls or maybe just let her keep leaving voicemails—this might be her way of coping.
As many shared their own experiences, it became clear that this coping strategy is quite common. Feeling like a loved one is still just a phone call away somehow makes the pain a bit more bearable. One person commented: "I'm still paying my dad's phone bill 1. He's been gone 2. One of the things we lose when a loved one dies is the chance for real conversation. So many things get left unsaid. We can look at old photographs, sure, but never again will we be able to ask "How was your day?
These are the moments that seem to die as well. So it's no wonder we cling onto something as simple as a phone number, if it means that we get to really share how important someone was. And still is. The TikTok user decided to follow the advice, and let the woman hold onto the small piece of comfort by allowing her to keep calling.
It's a small act of kindness that clearly means the world to someone else. Imagine how different the world would be if cis-gendered men had the ability to give birth? Would the state of Texas attempt to ban abortions after six weeks or would they be available on-demand? Would we live in a country without mandatory paid maternity leave? How much more affordable would childcare be? Would there be a tax on period products?
How would we treat people experiencing period pain? A few brave men decided to see what life was like for people who have periods in a funny but enlightening video that's gone viral on TikTok. In a video posted by Benz Trap House that has over 1. Period simulators are essentially the same as labor simulators.
They're called transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation TENS machines that are designed to relieve pain. But when turned up a notch can create intense, debilitating discomfort. The group took a semi-scientific approach to the experiment with a woman acting as a control subject.
At the beginning of the video, she attaches the simulator to an area near her ovaries and turns it up to ten, the highest setting. In the clip, the group looks impressed as she endures the extreme setting without showing any discomfort. The boys tried a period simulator fyp foryou foryoupage funny periodcramps periodsimulator viral. When the first guy attempted to wear the period simulator he was shocked by the discomfort.
At one point in the video, the period simulator is attached to a woman and a man at the same time. When the device is turned on, the guy is in extreme pain while the woman stands still, claiming the feelings created by the machine are "not even as bad as a cramp.
We bottle our water exclusively in high-grade PET bottles, as that is the optimal packaging that protects the quality of our water against oxygen migration and carbon dioxide which can affect taste , ensures product safety no breakage , and minimizes environmental impact lightweight, lower emission during transport and less waste.
The FDA does not require an expiration date. You can use our Store Locator to find a local store near you. Due to the logistical aspects of getting the water from Fiji to the United States, half of the wholesale cost of Fiji Water is just to cover the cost of transporting it.
Interestingly, Fiji Water advertises their pledge to sustainability on the company web site : "As part of its longstanding dedication to environmental sustainability, Fiji Water launched a comprehensive plan to transform its use of plastic while promoting a circular economy.
With the less than favorable view of water bottles and their negative impact on the environment, Fiji has spent millions on marketing itself as a green company via Mother Jones. Fiji is the most imported water in the United States and has a bit of status behind its name via Money Inc. Previously, the minibar held Evian, and at that time, Diet Coke was the best selling minibar item via Fast Company.
This means that Fiji Water is in high demand, and for those who remember their Economics , high demand is generally associated with higher costs. The water bottles for Fiji Water have a different look from every other brand of bottled water.
Other bottled water comes in a round bottle — even other upmarket brands — but Fiji Water bottles are square, which adds to production costs. Bottlers can only claim spring water if their product is verified to be from a spring.
Fiji Water has all kinds of minerals that give it its smooth , soft taste such as calcium, magnesium and silica. Aquafina Pure Water , the primary unflavored product produced under the Aquafina brand, is derived from local municipal tap water sources and goes through a purification process that incorporates reverse osmosis, ultraviolet, and ozone sterilization. In America, Fiji is still the most imported bottled water. That certainly accounts for one reason why it's expensive —the demand for water bottled from the mountain of Fiji is just great.
Aside from packaging, there's also the fact that the water in Fiji water bottles are literally hard to come by. I read a study done on the autopsied brains of Alzheimer's patients and one of the things that they had in common was high levels of aluminum in their brains.
One of the best things to remove aluminium from the body is silica. It's only famous because the company that produces it pays a lot to advertise it. And it's only expensive because they decided to price it that way. Technically speaking it's just tap water that happens to come from a particular aquifer in Norway.
The same water source the locals use for everything. Bottled water from major brands like Aquafina , Nestle, and Dasani has been found to contain tiny plastic particles that you're drinking. Bottled water has twice the amount of microplastic in it that tap water does, according to a new report.
