Source: Paul Bergen / Getty Back in the 90’s, Black folks started realizing that we’re more powerful together than we are apart. In 1994, young D’Angelo penned a song for the soundtrack to Panther and featured some of the biggest male voices in rhythm & blues at the time, including Tevin Campbell, El DeBarge, Gerald Levert, Tony Toni Toné, Boyz II Men, Al B. Sure!, Lenny Kravitz, R. Kelly, Aaron Hall, Brian McKnight, Silk, Keith Sweat and more. The supergroup went by the name “Black Men United” and created a song that still speaks volume to the state of Black people in America together. So loves, stand with them in boycotting divisiveness and for coming together for a cause. I love us, for real.

For 24 hours, “non-Premium subscribers will gain access to thousands more videos – some in 4k, if that’s what you’re into,” Mashable reports. When Pornhub gifted porn aficionados with this promotion last year, there was a 308% viewer increase on Valentine’s Day alone, Pornhub Insights states. For those who don’t know what you’re in for if you visit the site with premium access, here’s a little insight. PI adds, “Pornhub Premium is much more than an ad-free version of Pornhub, there are over 100,000 full-length videos from top studios streaming at high definition up to 4K. A Premium membership also includes exclusive content you can’t find on Pornhub Free. So there’s plenty of new content for people to experience.” There you have it— maybe you don’t have to be alone this Valentine’s Day after all.

Mom in Kittery Maine finds a LIZARD in her LETTUCE. She bought it at Shaw’s in Portsmouth and has heard back from the FDA that they are investigating how it happened. pic.twitter.com/d8OrdlC9o4 — Danielle Waugh NBC 10 Boston (@DWaughNBCBoston) February 6, 2018 Michelle Carr was shocked out of her mind when she found a dead lizard in her salad—minus the tail. She’d prepared the meal herself, but it turns out the lettuce was store-bought. Carr, a resident from Kittery, Maine told WMUR , “It was disgusting. It was a shock. I immediately started to retch.” “I put my fork into my salad after a couple of bites and realized that my fork was not in an avocado slice,” she continued. “It was a lizard.” And what’s worse? Carr has a newborn baby at home, whom she says she’s breastfeeding and unfortunately, “There’s no way to know whether or not I actually ingested the tail or not.” The FDA is currently investigating the incident and the lettuce supplier is trying to figure out how this could have happened. Of course, Twitter chimed in. “Minus the tail” NOPE NOPE NOPE https://t.co/gWlaPatw5n — Karanhm (@karanhm134) February 7, 2018 I'm going to move some things around to make room for my new fear. https://t.co/9rvEZQq215 — David Faber's Hair (@DavidFabersHair) February 7, 2018 We repeat… gross.
