   It's going to take me a minute to put feelings into words after seeing #JustMercy. I'm so full, so moved, and so proud of @BryanStevenson. If you do nothing else these next few days, see this. Take people. Tell others. And see it again. https://t.co/r1PfxSVxit

      Poor baby.. what a bummer, but he’ll be over the worst in no time, SG.. lots of Glamma hugs, healthy fluids.. a humidifier will certainly help.. and perhaps, his favorite Christmas gift/toy close-by to help get him over missing out on all the magical Christmas fun..

    Go Mariah 👏👏👏👏

    “All I Want For Christmas Is You” by Mariah Carey is projected to stay at #1 for a third consecutive week on the Billboard Hot 100, making it the first #1 of the next decade.

    This would make Carey the first female act in history to achieve a #1 in four different decades. pic.twitter.com/26qQekze9D
