Not at all. For us heterosexual dudes, a woman's accent whether it's foreign or domestic is one of several traits we find attractive. Some dudes like those husky voice women who sound like they smoke Black & Milds. Other dudes might prefer to hear a light, sweet voice hunming like a bird in his ear. No doubt thhose foreign accents can be catchy too as long as the body matches up well.

Yeah, but if you are asserting something that she says is untrue why don’t you just share the link or admit that you was telling stories or being hyperbolic? Assuming you don’t wanna say you were just lying. Agreed birds have to fly… eventually and drug addicts need to be in rehab. Much of this work is mechanized. I’m not sure how many jobs is gonna produce. It’s not like the old days when guys donned hardhats and went into to tunnels with pickaxes

As surmised, POTUS OJ didn't deliver anything new or revelatory in his speech. More of the same hot air. POTUS OJ did mention that our military service members will be receiving a warrior dividend, a special check in the amount of $1,776. The American people aren't getting a dime. They will have even less when that big beautiful (ugly) bill goes into effect next year.

That was a......strategic.....response to my statement, lol.

The US population has grown by 195 million people between 1950-2025. About 70 million of those people are immigrants. Right now, the US population is 340 million people. It is projected to be 380 million in 15 years or so. Millions more people still means men and women are carrying out their biological duties.

IMO, a woman's accent is just another trait like eye and hair color, height, weight, body shape, etc.

It depends WHERE the population is growing and among who. In the West.....the NATIVE population is either stagnant or declining. The only reason the population in general is growing in the West is because of IMMIGRATION and the children of immigrants. When it comes to most immigrant cultures....be they Asian, African, or Latin American....the male/female dynamic is remained pretty much the same; so whatever the men were doing to get women 100 or even 200 years ago, they're doing today. Their approach is the same and their results are the same. But in the West....the male/female dynamic has changed drastically over the past 75 years or so.

The world population is not shrinking. It is increasing which means men aren't afraid to approach women. Energy and rare earth minerals are just two things that are extremely important to the future. That means very lucrative in terms of getting paid to do the work. Men who look for jobs can afford to feed themselves and/or their families from one month to the next. However, men who invent things and/or seize opportunities build wealth that takes care of generations of people. Two very different mindsets. Our people should be more focused on the latter.

In 2 weeks, over 20 million Americans will lose the benefits that allow them to have affordable health insurance if it expires. Many folks living in red states will be affected if the subsidies disappear beginning 2026. Sometimes, things have to break in order for people to feel the pain and/or full ramifications of losing it. I'm slightly curious to see how those MAGA folks who benefit from ObamaCare will feel about their leader when they can no longer get a tooth pulled or take their kids to see a pediatrician. The funniest or saddest part depending on your worldview is that wealthy people make the decisions that keep people poor.

So in other words..... He couldn't have waited to put all of that in the State of the Union speech coming up in a month or 2? But he needed to come on primetime to address the nation and say what he's pretty much ALREADY been saying every time he talks to reporters....lol.

Gotcha. Technology will facilitate bringing them back to the big screen. Still, using actors who are alive would allow them to make money too.

The POTUS address will be a nothing burger. POTUS OJ will tell the American people he knows about their affordability issues. Then, POTUS OJ will proceed to lay blame on POTUS Papa Joe Biden's administration. POTUS OJ blows more hot air than an air fryer.

Easy...... Because as far as I'm concerned they're not dead. They live on in Spirit. Imagination is EXTREMELY powerful and it's one of the greatest Gifts given to humanity. You can watch Richard Pryor or Redd Foxx or Esther Rolle on film or video and IMAGINE that they are still acting in their prime. AI will only amplify this already inherent Gift. On top of that...... The younger actors of today don't carry the same MEMORIES of the ones we grew up with. When you see Shirley Hemphill...you can hear her voice and even see her in your mind saying something similar to what I posted...lol. The same with Richard Pryor. I bet you couldn't imagine....say....Nate Parker's voice....if I offered you $100 to do so, lol.

I know it's not a movie that will ever come to fruition but I don't get casting dead people to play in it. CGI and AI will blow the budget. It would be cheaper to use living people who either look like or can be made to resemble them.

My response to Troy was that social media could be considered like a religion. Just like religion, I didn't cast aspersion on those who choose to use social media. As an old man, I have no concern over how people choose to use their time as long as they are not bringing hurt, harm or danger to others. Life is short. In the absence of purpose, people should sink their time accordingly in living to the fullest.

@Pioneer1I don't really care if you continue to smear the board with your feces. Have at it. You're the only one who can't distinguish fiction from fact. Let's hear it for the Mayor of Pioneerville! The biggest fool in town!

Save it. We all know what you really wanted to do.....lol.

also starring....... You know and love her as the sassy Shirley from What's Happening! "Whoa whoa whoa...hold on turkey tail. You call this a TIP? A jive ass penny??? I ain't got no fuse at home to fix, sucka!" SHIRLEY HEMPHILL as Big Bertha Dolemita's second in command

@TroyThanks for the feedback. I really just wanted an opportunity to give a slap on the wrist to anybody who chided people for wasting time on social media while at the same time they were wasting their time, watching that blaxploitation crap pioneer churns out, degrading black women. (The same hypocrite, wallowing in righteous indignation, peeing on himself, over his deluded belief that the evil GQ Magazine is conspiring to masculinize black women.) Watta sleeze bag. Viewer alert: Stupid pictures and goofy comments from the class clown on the way.

She reminds me of Shirley from What's Happening....lol.

Aight mayne........................ I heard that Trump is going to address the nation live tonight with some sort of "special" announcement. Maybe he's declaring Martial Law. Maybe he's declaring that aliens have landed and will take over. Maybe he's announcing open war with some country. Maybe even a $10,000 stimulus check for every U.S. citizen! Whatever it is, the shit better be important! Don't get people all hyped up for some big ass NOTHING burger that could have waited to be aired on NBC Nightly News or something you could have tweeted. Or some "we inherited a mess but now we're fixing it" shit, that could have waited until your State of the Union address in a couple months. Most people are so jaded with "breaking news" and "special address to the nation" that turn out to be the same ole mundane shit. It's like crying wolf now. I remember back in the day when a president addressed the entire nation....it was for something SHOCKING. Like Bush announcing he was going to war with Iraq Or Nixon announcing that he was resigning Now you have breaking news for routine snow storms in the middle of winter...... Man, yall interrupted Simone Biles dancing in a sexy outfit on Dancing With The Stars for THIS shit???? WTF???? So.....let's see what the man is up on tonight.

Troy Funny you mention women with accents. I've been attracted to women with foreign accents since I was a kid. I think men are psychologically (and perhaps biologically) programed to find foreign accents attractive for a number of reasons. Not only are they "different" or "exotic" but if they come from another nation that usually means they are further away from the gene pool and less likely to produce defects that come from inbreeding.

Troy This is easy to resolve just do a search for the post and share it. It doesn't need to be resolved because on MY end it's not a problem...lol. It's not that important to me. I know what I read and understood it clearly. Yeah, I don’t know if guys asking girls out less or if this is just some social media hype, but I did notice a couple of things that I think hurt the culture: Young males (men and boys) approach females FAR less today than when we were children. They rarely even flirt anymore. I think it's been "beat" out of them by so many messages in the media, online, and at work that tell them approaching women in assertive manner is considered "harassment". Even if it's on the street....."street harassment". Ofcourse some men ignore this, but the majority take it seriously. Especially if you've been or you've seen someone punished at work or by law enforcement for being assertive or aggressive. I don’t begrudge any person in their 20s living at home, especially in places like New York; the “rent is too damn high.” Seriously, if parents have the space why force a kid to move out when they can be saving money. Living at home in your 20s is one thing. Living at home with your parents in your 40s and 50s is another...lol. Especially if you have a history or drugs and alcohol abuse. There's a fine line between "helping out" your elderly parents and basically living off of them. I would imagine for men it is really hard today; you graduate from college saddled with debt, back in your childhood bedroom, can’t afford to take a girl out to a nice restaurant… the culture has not changed so much that this can’t wreck havoc with your self-esteem. What's even worse is....these are the type of conditions most MACHO men in the past used to revolt against. Back in the "old days" of history, most men wouldn't tolerate such conditions and would get together and DEMAND good decent paying jobs. Either from private employers or from the government itself. They had wives to support and children to feed, so they had far more responsibilities to simply accept "we're not hiring" or minimum wage. They'd organize, form unions, and DEMAND higher pay. Today most men aren't married and many of them aren't taking care of the children they produce anyway, so there's no real pressure on them to be the bread winner or even work...let alone demand a decent wage. AI replacing all entry level professional jobs will only make things worse— unless we take action to avert the pending disaster. Goes back to what I was saying about men no longer having the responsibilities they used to have to motivate them. When a man's back is against the wall and he's getting pressure from his wife, children, and possibly even his elderly parents who are all relying on HIM to make enough money to support them -that FORCES him into action. The powers that be were AFRAID to let conditions get too bad for the men in society...in those days...because they KNEW what would happen. Today, most men don't want to work or the responsibility of raising a family anyway....so low income is just the excuse they need.

That's ok She's used to it....lol.

@aka Contrarian I completely missed your desire to have someone comment on your observations, at least it wasn’t clear to me until your last post. The difference between this forum and social media platforms like TikTok are profound. Sure in some cases, the content might be just as trivial, silly, incorrect, deep sublime, witty as anything that you’ll find on social media one main difference you consistently ignore, however, is that a tremendous amount of time, energy and money goes into deliberately hacking into the brain of the users of the systems and they have been very effective. There are no Scientist here trying to keep you engaged on this platform 24/7 We don’t even have ads here anymore. You ignore all the evidence which speaks to the adverse impact of this on our society. But it’s fine not everyone is going to get it or if they get it accept it. It is much like pioneer refusal to accept, there’s no scientific basis for race or getting Harry realize not all ministers are money grubbing womanizers.
