As one Twitter user pointed out, men who don't believe in Valentine's Day do believe in avoiding the silent treatment:

It really isn't right Black History Month is usually only 28 days. Which is why we like this proposal. Red, black and green instead of red, white and blue? We dig it.
Hear me out y’all: let’s do the 2019 Black History Month do-over in July:
1) The weather will be lovely
2) We’ll have time to prepare
3) We can make the 4th of July count for more than PTO and barbecues for the first time in our livesRT if you’re down and I’m dead serious

This Twitter user wondered what happened to all of the scammers he once saw on the platform. We know exactly where they are. They're off selling Skintea.
