On June 11th, Michael Hickson, a quadriplegic black man with COVID-19 was killed by a hospital in Austin Texas.
Doctors decided he had "no quality of life" an was not worth spending the resources to save.
The conversation between his doctor and his wife was caught on audio 1/?
[description of image: a photo of Hickson, lying in a hospital bed and smiling for the camera /description]
Doctor: So as of right now, his quality of life -- he doesn't have much of one.
Melissa: What do you mean? Because he's paralyzed with a brain injury he doesn’t have quality of life?
Doctor: Correct.
--
Hickson was refused food or treatment for 6 days
In the YouTube video, the doctor can be heard saying "he will have lines and tubes coming out of his body... That's not quality-of-life"
I have tubes coming out of my body. I happen to like my life. Without those tubes I'd be dead
Our definition of quality is vastly different
So, when you see me repeatedly yelling about masks, paying attention to disabled people, and you don't understand why I tweet with passion, remember this.
I'm fighting to change culture that doesn't see disabled life as quality. many of us are afraid and rightly so.
LaBlaq @LoveAndShalom
Please, please, please don't sweep this under the rug. Your disabled friends are in danger.
We must unite and fight this!
His wife was not notified of his death until the next morning after his remains had already been transported to a funeral home without [Mrs. Hickson’s] permission.
“No one has offered condolences. There has never been an apology or acknowledgment of his death. It’s like they just don’t care,”
#disabled not disposable
How to Shop On a Budget
This is going to be an all-inclusive post on how to shop for food, clothes/shoes, toiletries/house supplies, and makeup on a budget. Here we go!
Food
1. Shop after you’ve eaten a fulfilling meal. If you shop on an empty stomach, you’re going to buy more food than you’ll need and it’ll probably be food that isn’t good for you.
2. If you’re shopping for a week or two, have a menu already for those weeks of the foods you’re going to eat. Know the ingredients you’ll need for these foods.
3. From the menu you’ve created, make a grocery list before entering the store. Stick to this list like it’s a lifeline and you’re stranded on an island. If you don’t get sidetracked, you probably won’t be tempted to buy foods you don’t need.
4. Try to limit yourself to only going to the grocer’s once or twice a week. If you go more often, the more money you’re going to end up spending.
5. Shop in a store that you know well. If you’re shopping in a store where you’re unfamiliar with the layout, you’ll get sidetracked from your list and be more tempted to buy food that you won’t need.
6. You should probably be cleaning out your fridge and pantry every couple of weeks or so. This allows you to see what you’ve got and use it up before if expires and before you buy anything else.
7. On the same note, keep your fridge and pantry fairly organized. If you’ve got a mess, it’s going to be hard for you to keep track of what you do and don’t have and you’re going to have a hard time making an accurate shopping list. Don’t waste money by buying something you didn’t know you already had because your fridge is a wreck.
8. If your grocery store offers coupons, use them! Even if they’re only saving you pennies, the pennies will add up. Take the money you save at the end of every month and put it towards other expenses such as bills, pamper yourself with it, or deposit it into a savings account.
9. Don’t use coupons to buy something if you’re not going to use it. However, if you plan your meals for the week around coupons, you can definitely save big $$, be the judge of when to use coupons or not. Similarly, if things are buy one get one half off and their easy to store and non-perishables like granola bars and you always eat granola bars for snacks, buy as many as you can afford or as many as you need. Be the judge of when to use coupons and/or bulk sales.
10. Use the calculator app on your phone to keep track of how much money you’re spending. This will help you to stick to your budget/grocery list and keep you from overspending. Don’t forget to allow for taxes!
11. Cook meals that you can get three or four servings out of like spaghetti and soup. Freeze these leftovers and reheat them when you’re ready for your next meal. It’s an amazing money saver. Leftovers are my life.
12. Foods that are fairly cheap and versatile:
eggs – scrambled, hard-boiled, fried, they go with anything
potatoes – buy a sack of them instead of the instant packs, they’ll last forever and you can make mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, fried potatoes, sliced potatoes, diced potatoes in soups, the list is forever
Apples — these last forever on the counter, you can eat them with yogurt, oatmeal, smoothies, peanut butter, or alone
Pasta noodles – you can do anything with pasta noodles and the carbs are filling
Any type of canned beans – green beans, black eyed peas, pinto beans, brown beans, they’re all delicious, buy what you like and they can be eaten alone as a side, in soups, or topped on other foods, again protein is filling and definitely cheaper than meat
Canned vegetables in general – wash them in cold water before cooking to get rid of all the extra salts and other ingredients they add to canned goods that aren’t good for you
Rice – I’m not a fan of rice but it is cheap and you can literally do anything with it
13. Use store savings cards. Even if you don’t care about the points (I don’t), the cards will usually get you discounts on some items and allow you to get items on sale that people without cards wouldn’t.
14. If you eat/can afford meat, buy meat when it goes on sale and freeze it until you’re going to use it.
15. If you’re dead set on buying produce, get it while it’s in season and refrain from buying something when it’s not in season. Instead, use the produce that is. Produce and when they’re in season:
Apples: late summer through fall
Apricots: late spring through early summer
Artichokes: spring and again in early fall
Asparagus: spring
Avocados: summer
Basil: summer
Beets: year-round
Blackberries: summer
Blueberries: summer
Boysenberries: early summer
Broccoli: fall and winter
Brussels Sprouts: late fall and winter
Butternut Squash: fall and winter
Cabbage: fall and winter
Cantaloupes: winter and early spring
Carrots: year-round
Cauliflower: fall and winter
Celery: fall and winter
Cherries: late spring and summer
Chickpeas: summer
Corn: summer
Cranberries: fall
Cucumbers: summer
Eggplant: summer and early fall
Figs: summer and fall
Garlic: summer and fall
Grapefruit: winter and spring
Grapes: late summer and early fall
Green Beans: summer and early fall
Horseradish: fall and winter
Kale: fall and winter
Kiwis: winter through spring
Leeks: fall through spring
Lemons: winter and spring
Lettuce: year-round
Limes: late summer and fall
Mandarins: winter
Mangoes: summer
Melons: summer and early fall
Mushrooms: spring through fall
Nectarines: summer
Potatoes: spring through summer
Okra: late summer and early fall
Onions: spring through fall
Oranges: winter and spring
Peaches: Summer
Pears: fall
Plums: summer
Pomegranates: fall
Pumpkins: fall
Rutabagas: fall and winter
Peas: winter
Strawberries: spring and summer
Sweet potatoes: fall and winter
Tomatoes: summer
Turnips: fall through spring
Watermelons: summer
Zucchini: summer
16. Pay attention when you’re at the register. Things may get rung up too many times or may not register that they’re on sale. My mom swears by this.
17. if at all possible, shop with cash. If you don’t have more cash than what your budget is, then you can’t go over.
Clothes and Shoes
1. Buy clothes when they’re out of season. You need winter clothes? Go online in the summer and stock up on what you’ll need.
2. Check around several different websites and stores when buying clothes. Oftentimes I can find the same item I need somewhere for cheaper than somewhere else.
3. If a store you like has an app and you’re sure of your size, get the app. I have the Charlotte Russe app and they’re always having app-exclusive sales on shoes and other clothing.
4. Buy items that are versatile and you can make many outfits with. My must have versatile items (you don’t have to have them all, these are just some options):
Jeans: light-wash, dark-wash, black, boyfriend, and distressed
Basic business attire: solid colored slacks, solid colored pencil skirt(s)
Dresses: black bodycon, gray or white bodycon, and t-shirt
Jackets: bomber and jean
Solid colored items: shirts, body suits, camisoles, sweaters, halter tops, leggings
Cardigans
Good winter coat (invest on a good one, it’ll save money in the long run)
Shorts: light-wash and dark-wash
Overalls
Skirts: skater, leather, blue jean
Simple pair of white/black/grey heels
Solid colored pair of flats
Solid colored pair of sandals
A pair of comfy shoes like Nike’s, Converse, Vans, etc.
5. Don’t buy all the latest trends. If you buy them the year afterwards, no one is going to care. You should only be buying what pleases you anyways so if you’re buying it just because it’s the latest fashion, you’re wasting money.
6. Don’t be afraid to buy your clothes from thrift stores, consignment shops, or yard sales. I find great pieces from these places all the time. It can be very hit or miss but it’s always worth the look.
7. Declutter your closet and the beginning of every season. If you’ve got something you wore only once or twice or something that still has tags on it at the bottom of your closet, get rid of it. Sell it or donate it.
8. Take care of your clothes and shoes to keep them looking good and lasting longer.
9. Know when to buy quality. If you’re messy and always getting stains on your shirts, you don’t have to buy the best quality shirts out there. Get something cheap and comfy if you’re going to have to throw it out later.
10. Shop sales racks first. I got a shirt from Old Navy once for a dollar on the sales racks. The sales racks are my (and your) best friend.
11. Places I shop:
Rue 21
Charlotte Russe
Goodwill
Plato’s Closet
Walmart (seriously they’re stepping up their quality, I bought some slacks and pencil skirt from here a while ago and they’re still good, I don’t recommend their shoes though)
TJMaxx
Old Navy
Local thrift stores and yard sales
12. Places others have recommended to shop but I haven’t tried yet:
Amazon
Zara
Mango
H&M
ASOS
Target
Toiletries and House Supplies
1. Things to buy from a dollar store/dollar tree:
Cards for occasions, party supplies, and gift wrap and bags
Seasonal decorations
Reading glasses (not prescription glasses)
Hair accessories and necessities
Pregnancy tests
Dishware, cookware, and decorative vases or bowls
Storage containers for food and other storage bins
Candy and sodas
Dishrags and towels
Medicine
Pet treats and supplies
Makeup (not everything)
Cleaning supplies
Baby supplies
Paper products
Personal items such as pads or tampons
Sandwich bags
Band-aids and other first-aid items
Mailing labels
School supplies
Not everything on this list may be available at your dollar store or may even be a better deal than your local Walmart or other retail store so check around.
2. Again, use coupons and store cards to your advantage!
3. Shop for school supplies when there’s no-tax weekend. It’ll save you so much $$
4. Same as with clothes and shoes, check around many stores to find the best prices on goods and then make a shopping list once a week and hit up all the stores for the specific goods they have the best deals on.
5. Make a specific shopping list for what you need and stick to it.
6. Keep all of your personal products and your cleaning cabinet organizes so you know what you do and don’t have and can avoid buying duplicates in case you’re tight on money.
Makeup
1. I watched a ton of YouTube videos for drug store hauls and dupes.
2. Ask your friends and family if they have any recommendations for drug store steals and deals.
3. Try to avoid high end makeup if you can. You can usually find a drugstore dupe of almost if not the same quality and for way cheaper.
4. If you want to splurge on yourself and buy high end makeup, don’t buy it when it first comes out. Sometimes the items will go on sale online a while after they come out and all the hype has gone down.
5. Not only for makeup but for clothes and shoes as well, shop on cyber Monday or Black Friday to get ultimate money savings

This post has taken me forever with all of the research, I hope everyone can get a use out of this. Enjoy!
Glo-Up Challenge Week one!
So i’m starting a real-deal glow-up challenge. The first week lists everything we’re trying to change right now. We need to keep a journal or a note on our phone and record everything to create awareness of our personal issues.Maybe we are good with controlling what we eat but we never put lotion on our bodies, or we’re good at doing everything except our assignments. How many people know exactly how many calories they consume a day? How many people know how much money they spend? etc. Week one of the challenge introduces good habits but also gives us the chance for introspection and adjustment.
Everyday:
Wake up earlier.
Drink water as soon as you wake up.
Carry a water bottle with you and refill it.
Pack a lunch. Make it healthy. (Sandwich, soup, salad with protein, leftovers, grilled chicken, eggs etc)
Drink water before you eat every meal.
Either make multiple snacks for throughout the day or 3 meals and one or two small snacks to keep you going. I like to set specific times I can eat, eg. breakfast at 8 and snack 2 or 3 hours later. Don’t allow yourself to feel starving!
Put your phone away while eating and try to stretch the meal out for longer.
Start your exercise off with 50 squats, 25 crunches and ten push ups. Increase this the next day. Other options include Yoga, Dance, Skipping and taking a walk.
Take 5 minutes to appreciate the outdoors if you can.
Do one thing that you have been putting off. Assignments, cleaning your room etc. Get it done.
Shower. Put lotion on your whole body after.
Put your phone away before bed. If you need to do something before you sleep, read or listen to music.
Progress:
-Write down all your objectives in a journal.
-Put reminders on your phone about everything from your morning alarm to the assignment that you had meant to do that day.
-Count calories and record them. Figure out what your go-to dish can be for every meal.
-Evaluate each day at the end. What did you do wrong? What can you do to fix it? -Craved sweet food? Google good chocolate bar alternatives and write them down. Know you have a healthy choice to make when you just need to eat something sweet.
-Gauge how you feel. Do you feel better or worse?
-Have a goal. It’s so hard to be serious about anything when you have no tangible goal.
Extras:
-Learn one new thing.
-Read a book.
-Try a new hairstyle.
-Shoot your shot and make a new friend.
-Wear something you love but you never wear.
-Start a journal.
-Try to take a photo of something beautiful you see everyday.
-Smile
-Leave your wallet at home.
-Only use debit to swipe. If you can’t afford it, leave it in the store.
-Notice what you feel the need to buy. Are they needs or wants?
-Immediately remove yourself from negative situations, whether it’s a friend or the internet.
-Do a good deed.
-Watch less tv.
-Pick at least 2 items in your closet that you can give to charity.

Thank you to the girl that posted this! I have such a hard time saving money. Withdrawal what you want to save in cash and put it in a little jar like this. It prevents you from spending it frivolously but is still there in an emergency!
