That is some nasty stuff that will destroy your liver. I’ve never had the stones to go that route or try the biologics. I just use steroid cream on visible areas of my scalp and cover the rest of my body. Not much else to be done. I’ve considered suicide many times.

Starbucks is reversing its position that had prohibited employees from wearing paraphernalia, such as T-shirts or pins, supporting the "Black Lives Matter" movement.

Although the company publicly supports "Black Lives Matter" on its social media channels and in a press release, an internal memo to employees obtained by BuzzFeed News earlier this week explains that Starbucks wouldn't let baristas do the same. But on Friday, Starbucks reversed its stance, saying they can wear a "Black Lives Matter" T-shirt or pin until new branded shirts are delivered to 200,000 employees that includes the phrase.

"This movement is a catalyst for change, and right now, it's telling us a lot of things need to be addressed so we can make space to heal," Starbucks said in a publicly shared letter to employees announcing the new T-shirt design.

UPDATE: The sheriff's office says the altercation inside the Walmart began after a man approached another person at the customer service counter. The aggressor allegedly told the man, "Hey I've got something for ya," walked away and then returned with a pair of scissors, holding them as if he were about to stab the other man. A sheriff's office spokesperson says the other individual drew his gun in self-defense and pointed it at the suspect. The suspect then dropped the scissors as he turned to run away. Officials say when he went to pick them back up, one witness allegedly shouted "gun!" prompting "total chaos" inside the store. Investigators are examining video from the scene and hope to release a description of the suspect soon. He could face aggravated assault charges, an EBRSO spokesperson said. The sheriff's office says it's confident the man with the gun acted lawfully and will not be charged.
