Experts will tell you to stay calm and swim parallel to the shore until you can break free. But look at the pictures. Do you see how far you have to swim to break free from more than dozens of rip currents?

Don't be dumb. The flags are up for a reason.

#RipCurrents

When the red flags are waving with the warning of rip currents, it does not mean only one rip current. It means numerous ones that you may not be able to easily spot from shore. The pictures below illustrate how rip currents can be along side each other and why it is impossible to swim around them.

When entering water, many people may choose to go where there is a break in the oncoming waves. But that's the deadly spot. The rip current will drag you out faster than you can scream help.

May you release a little of the fear that painfully constricts your heart today.

Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and slowly exhale as you imagine the worry, the angst, and stress evaporate into nothingness.

Feel the sun warm your skin. Hear the birds chirping with joy. Notice the delightful colors of the world.

Allow the beauty of the day and the wonder of being alive create protective shields so that awful band of fear can no longer hold power over you and your life.

You can do this.

Decisions.. decisions.

@UmbaSaffire Yes!!! Without a doubt! 🤭

@UmbaSaffire I’m thinking it adjusts to describe within our own limits. I average about 5.5 hours so maybe that’s why they think it’s fair. Either way, It’s lying! 😂

I think Fitbit lies to me when it scores my 3 hours, 34 minutes of sleep as fair. There is nothing fair about insomnia and the resulting heavy empty head feeling.

@JLong Sorry.. I cannot stop giggling at this.

The missing sub..
So, this is the heartless side of me... to me this is just dumb rich white people shit and I really have no sympathetic feelings about it.

This is what drowning REALLY looks like..

This speech is 🔥 🔥 🔥

This is how every school board president should be handling the issues of book bans based on homophobia and transphobia.

"School Board President Jackie Goldberg calls out and destroys homophobic protesters. She showcases the book titled "The Great Big Book of Families" and gives a heartfelt, powerful speech about the importance of love and showing respect to lgbtq+ individuals. "

Tattoo #5.. in honor of Vato. 💟

Every morning when we open our eyes we get another opportunity to make our world a better place.
Location.
Application.
Emotion.
Direction.
Maybe one, maybe all.

This is your story.. what will the next chapter say?

@Smersh That’s good to know, thank you!

I'm not saying it is a bad thing or a good thing..

There are times the overdrafts are mistakes. Other times they might be a necessity for some.

I understand the bank is there to make money, but it bugs me that in many cases, it most hurts the ones who can least afford the punishment.

Instead, the bank now offers an overdraft line of credit at 18% interest. There is a set $ amount, but you can move money over to cover overdrafts.

Obviously, the goal is to pay it off immediately. But there may be cases when someone can't do that.

I can't help but wonder how much more money the banks will make off this interest than they did off the overdraft fees themselves.

Of course it is a way to get around Pres. Biden's administration.

Junk Fees

I'm not sure how all the banks are handling this but here is what our bank is doing..

In years prior if you overdrafted, at the end of the night a $35 fee (per item) was charged to your bank account. If you overdrafted through the day at a POS, there was an assumption it would be covered before end of day, and the sale was let through.

Now, all POS are declined if the account balance is $0, regardless pending deposits.
