Hello,

I'd like y'alls input on whether or not you truly care about your natural products being vegan. That means not having any animal (by)products, such as beeswax, lanolin, etc.

The natural products that I buy from other brands are vegan, which I don't mind, however, I do use beeswax in my moisturizers for stability & am considering using lanolin for my chapstick/lip balm products since i read that it does wonders for sealing, moisturizing & protecting (sensitive) skin.

do you care about having vegan natural products or are you more at the point where you don't care if it's vegan, so long as the product is quality & works for your needs/lifestyle?

Peace y'all,

My friends who are married invited me to go backpacking w them & (I assume) their couple friends. I am a single woman w afro hair who has yet to go backpacking. Their trip is 3 days, 05-07 June & they let me know that they'll provide me w all the equipment needed.

I've only ever been camping & whenever I go hiking, it is a one day excursion. As someone who has yet to backpack, is there any words of guidance y'all have for me? I'm mostly concerned about having enuff food & snacks for a 3 day wilderness excursion.

Will do more research about what backpacking entails; however, I am not by any means, yet, ready for this trip on any level.

I've been applying for jobs via craigslist & I've run into this ploy where people pretend to be a legit business or employer, then have sent me on a quest to buy things for the so called position. Thankfully, the purchases aren't crazy, nor hard to return.

Now, it seems that scammers know they cant hardly scam for cash anymore, so they'd rather have people go out & buy things or just believe their story.

I'm not mad at it, morseo observant of this is where they'e devolved to. All I've bought so far is a phat ass printer (which was needed generally) & blank check papers from amazon (easily returnable).

For those fellow unemployed seeking opportunities, may you be ever steadfast & discerning in your search
