Millennial Love: Sliding Into DM's, Does It Work?


On Media Outlook News: From dating apps to celebrity relationships, ghosting to benching; Media Outlook News digs deep into the murky waters with this story.
Social media has created a whole new way to chat someone up: sliding into DMs (direct messages). But is there a correct etiquette for this? Is there a way to do it without being creepy? We share our thoughts on the matter this week on Millennial Love.
We're also discussing 'the ick' - the inexplicable feeling of disgust you sometimes develop out of nowhere towards someone you're dating, even though you were totally into them before. Where does it come from? Do men get 'the ick' too? We try to get to the bottom of all these mysteries.
It's available via iTunes and Acast, and we'd love it if you could download, listen, rate and subscribe....

In the docs he filed, he says Joseline's real name is Shenellica Juneann Bettencourt and she's actually 39, 10 years older than she claims to be.

None of the info he provided seemed to help in granting that restraining order against her, though.

Why Dr. Umar & General Seti’s Beef is a Problem

Dr. Umar Johnson has become a major figure in the “conscious community” and has given many knowledgeable viewpoints on the issues that Blacks face. His views on systematic oppression, the Black church, and investing in and uplifting the young Black male have personally made me voluntarily watch his videos and interviews. But a few days ago, I was let down by this Black man who has consistently done and said questionable things for quite some time now. This man, who I viewed as a breath of fresh air for our community, revealed the main problem with our community in his latest scandal. What is being mocked and referred to as a “Conscious Beef” between Dr. Umar and General Seti, another well-known influencer, reveals just how contradictory and problematic these types of leaders are. The increase of individuals that are becoming “Conscious Pimps,” i.e. those who make a profit from the desires of Black people is a huge issue. Over the last few years, conscious pimp...
