The beauty of this beach....

Aanshi Raghava @Aansh13 (11406) • New Delhi, India 21 Dec

I love me some…

Amber @AmbiePam (94009) • United States 20 Dec

Candles! What is something inconsequential that just perks you up? I got a little spoiled because this past year I got some candles to review, and they were amazing. I know @NJChicaa has talked about her love of Yankee Candles. I...

President Musk

kay lar @jaylar (724) • Kingston, Jamaica 20 Dec

There is no doubt that Musk will be President. He is a professional manipulator, exploiter, racist who exceeds Trump in all his flaws. He maltreats anyone who works for his company, produces low quality and dangerous products,...

What do you prefer your December weather to be like?

snowy @snowy22315 (182317) • United States 11 Dec

Pitstop I usually like the cooler weather in December in India as it follows a long and hot season. I'm now in Australia and it's a weird summer. Really hot on some days and cool and rainy on other days.
