Gosh another coronavirus public service announcement?! Well here’s the deal. Information is power and we realize that we should not assume that everyone knows about it just because we know!

The level of misinformation out there gives us a great cause for concern. People are spewing out theories and stating them as though they are facts. There’s nothing we haven’t heard, especially on these Internet and social media streets. From people saying it’s not real, to people saying it’s a “disease for the rich,”  to people saying “its caused by 5G” or that “ginger, lemon, and hot water can cure coronavirus.” Oh. And can we talk about the fact that some people are still adamantly going to places of worship in crowds? And having house parties? Come on now. Ignorance is a huge factor to blame for this disease being spread like wildfire.

So at every chance we get, it is important that we do our part to keep educating people about coronavirus and how to avoid getting infected.

We love this video put together by the staff of Euphorique PR & SPS Media to help raise more awareness about the pandemic.

Watch and share – especially with those people in your life who still don’t get it.

Stay safe queens!

A Song of Hope https://queenmoremi.com/2020/03/a-song-of-hope/ Tue, 31 Mar 2020 06:25:31 +0000 http://queenmoremi.com/?p=5044 Over the past few weeks, I’ve been feeling like I’ve got the weight of the world on my shoulders with all that’s currently going on in the world. Seeing so…]]> Over the past few weeks, I’ve been feeling like I’ve got the weight of the world on my shoulders with all that’s currently going on in the world. Seeing so many people dying, seeing people feel sad and hopeless due to losses experienced during this season… it’s all so disheartening.

Naturally, I’m an empath. So this situation really hit me hard. I was anxious and didn’t know how to properly express myself to let go of the anxiety I was feeling. Then my husband came up with this brilliant idea of making a song that would help people heal. So in very impromptu fashion, he wrote the song, I sang it, and he shot it – all in just a couple of hours in one day.

The song is called ‘hope’ and I truly hope it blesses someone out there.

I haven’t done music in about 7 years. But I just had to get back on the saddle to spread some good vibes in the midst of all this confusion in the world.

Stay safe guys.

There’s a Dating App for Quarantine Season! Would You Try It? https://queenmoremi.com/2020/03/theres-a-dating-app-for-quarantine-season-would-you-try-it/ Tue, 31 Mar 2020 06:05:08 +0000 http://queenmoremi.com/?p=5034 For many people, this quarantines season has really put a damper on romantic relationships, especially for those who were looking to get into new relationships. I mean how can you…]]> For many people, this quarantines season has really put a damper on romantic relationships, especially for those who were looking to get into new relationships. I mean how can you go on dates with the whole social distancing situation? Well there’s always online dating right? Exactly.

Well, Daniel Ahmadizadeh and Christopher Smeder understand this perfectly well, so they designed ‘Quarantine Together,’ a dating app for exactly this era we’re living in.

One of the unique things about the app is that when two users get introduced, they know nothing about each other except their names. According to Daniel, this erases the superficial impulse to use physical appearance as a yardstick to determine whether or not you want to talk to someone.

According to CNN, the app is text-based. Everyday at 6 p.m., the app asks its registered users whether they washed their hands. If they say yes, they are introduced to another user by text. After 15 minutes, the matched users will be offered a link to video chat.

Daniel says ‘Quarantine Together’ is  different from other online dating apps because,“In quarantine, other apps are not repositioning what people do…. ‘Quarantine Together’ is specific to how people are living in this time.”

Speaking further about the uniqueness of the app and why its relevant in these current times we live in, he says:

“With this app, there are no rejections…it’s less about your photo or your bio, it’s more about actually being able to talk to another person…and right now is not the time to get rejected. Right now is the time to be empathetic.”

Would you try this app?
