That's according to Claudia Duran, a Miami-based matchmaker with Elite Connections. Duran said the meaning of text messages can easily be misconstrued and hurtful when someone doesn't text back right away. Claudia Duran calls it "death by text." "Two people like each other, and they're a little scared, and they're a little hesitant," she said. "And so they text everything." Duran is a Miami-based matchmaker with  Elite Connections . She works with Miami's affluent singles and people who are clearly invested in finding a relationship: A basic six-month membership costs $15,000, and a global membership (meaning you can meet people worldwide) costs at least $75,000.

#MichelleVisage #RuPaul #RuPaulsDragRace #LGBTQ #LGBTQyouth  #LGBTQ+ Against all odds,  RuPaul’s Drag Race  has become a massive pop-cultural force. After 10 seasons (plus  three  all-star seasons), it’s surprisingly bigger than ever, racking up its highest ratings yet this year. Musical contestants like  Adore Delano ,  Blair St. Clair , and  Trixie Mattel  have landed albums on the  Billboard  charts;  Drag Race  catchphrases like “not today, Satan!” and “hieeeee” have become part of the mainstream vernacular;  RuPaul’s Dragcon  conventions draw thousands of fans on both coasts; RuPaul Charles has won two consecutive  Emmys  for Best Reality Host; and now the show has a very good chance of sashaying away with this year’s big Emmy prize, for Best Reality Competition. Longtime  Drag Race  judge Michelle Visage tells Yahoo Entertainment that the slowly building success of the series surprises her. “It’s just the queerest show on television. Yes, even queerer than  Queer Eye . Y

While sitting alone in her bedroom there was too much time to think, she said, so sometimes she would fixate on her seclusion or start critiquing her appearance. “I remember just being on TikTok for hours during my day,” added Kianna, 17, who asked to be referred to by only her first name when speaking about her mental health. “That’s when my self-esteem started declining.” At the time, in early 2021, her 10th grade classes were virtual, and she had begun texting with her friends instead of talking to them. Her anxiety bred headaches, poor sleep and the odd feeling of living outside of her body. Then, she started seeing videos on TikTok about depersonalization disorder, a type of dissociative condition that can make peop

#Yelling #Children #Parents #Communication #Triple5LightTherapy.com #BlackTherapist #Psychotherapy #LGBTAffirmingTherapy When kids misbehave, yelling feels like a natural response, particularly if parents are stressed out and their tolerance for nonsense has worn thin. The messiness and monotony of parenting requires extreme patience, and yelling is a whole lot easier and more instinctive than pausing to react calmly. Many parents find themselves shouting at their children without really knowing why. But, despite the fact that yelling at your kids feels like a release, a form of discipline, and maybe the only way to get their attention, it’s important to understand the psychological effects that yelling at kids can have. As provocative as some behaviors may seem, little kids simply don’t have the emotional sophistication to fully understand adult frustration. And the psychological effects of yelling at toddlers repeatedly can be long-term, with the potential to change the way th

     #Daylightsavingtime #FallBack #Sleep, #DST Daylight saving time ends on Sunday,  at 2 a.m. —  the official hour to set all of our clocks back  to standard time. But most of us will probably "fall back" before we go to bed Saturday night. That's unless you reside in the states of Arizona (except the Navajo Nation) or Hawaii. Or the U.S. territories of American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands do not observe daylight saving time. On the bright side, we gain an extra hour of sleep. But many 9-to-5 office workers face a dark side too: Not seeing much daylight on weekdays until next spring.  Here are seven things to know about  daylight saving time : 1.) It's not plural. First things first. It's daylight saving time not saving's or savings time. It's singular. 2.) When is it exactly? Since 2007, daylight saving time begins on the second Sunday of March and ends on the first Sunday of November. Previously, it had started on th
