Is the lesson in guy fawkes that all populaces under each government, majorities or minorites, have one percents, a group of wealthy, who need to be courted by each government to prevent any populace from having potent strikes against striking agains.

@aka Contrarian....your home team, Da Bears had an excellent season. Especially compared to the past few years. 1st year Head Coach Ben Johnson deserves a lot of credit for helping QB Caleb Williams and the offense play better. HC Johnson assembled a very good coaching staff too. Defensive Coordinator Dennis Allen earned his money in his 1st year with Da Bears. I thought HC Johnson should have gone for a 2 point conversion after QB Williams threw that miraculous TD to tie the game. If the conversion was successful, Da Bears would have been in the NFC championship game. From a strategic perspective, I understand …

I am happy AALBC is still in existence. I need to test the calendar export and see what is actually exported as some of my calendar post are quite large. And I was wrong active membership didn't double by 2026. I have to do better.

America’s 100 Bestselling Black Authors of 2025

Straight out of a movie, the US has captured Venezuelan president Nicholas Maduro and his wife after launching airstrikes on the country. The Maduros have been flown out of Venezuela. It is being reported that Maduro will stand trial here in the US on drug trafficking charges. I believe end game is the Maduros will be exiled to a friendly country of choice. They will be allowed to live a rich and peaceful life elsewhere. A puppet president will be installed to run Venezuela according to US interests. Textbook regime change.😎

Taylor Fritz steps in to back Coco Gauff after backlash over her comments Coco Gauff’s recent comments about US fan support have sparked plenty of discussion in the tennis world. Speaking before the start of the United Cup, the 21-year-old spoke with reporters about what she sees as a lack of American backing at overseas events Asked if she expected much American presence at the Sydney event, Gauff said: “I’ll be honest, no. “I feel like we’re definitely, in the tennis department, the worst when it comes to that. So I’ve always said I wish our country in other places would show up throughout the world as we see maybe smaller countries supp…

Did William the Conqueror make England and thus Britian and thus the USA and the anglophone? Was William the Conqueror's lasting legacy in each country in the modern anglophone, dysfunctional media hiding the most sinful violent actions?

Are you enjoying the time of the Trump presidency , second term?

Protests in Iran have claimed over 500 lives so far. Some Iranians have supposedly had enough with their theocratic government. POTUS OJ says the US is considering actions in the form of military strikes and negotiations that can be taken to liberate those Iranians. Regime change does not automatically guarantee the stability of a country. Otherwise, the US can offer plane tickets and immigration status to displaced Iranians. Right now, the bully bluster coming from POTUS OJ is more along the lines of violence against Iran.😎

The petty 🤡 POTUS OJ canceled those holidays. Everyone can guess which day he added to fee-free day. Flag Day. This administration hit the ground running with their BS. They still have 2.8 years to destroy a steel ball with a rubber hammer.😎

https://www.cnn.com/2026/01/15/business/qatar-venezuela-oil-sale-account To avoid western creditors putting liens on the proceeds from Venezuelan oil sales, $500 million dollars has been placed in a Qatari bank. It is anybody's guess how much of the billions of dollars that will be collected from the sale of their oil will end up in Venezuelan banks. Of course, in the same way that POTUS OJ's son-in-law ended up with a billion dollars after his 1st term, it would stand to reason that a whole lotta folks will become very rich before the 🤡 leaves office. Rest assured that Black folks will not become wealthy as a result of the …

“There is no such thing as a race.” —Dr. John Henrik Clarke, Author, Historian, Educator @Pioneer1 and anyone else who might reject the so-called "white man's science" and continue hold on to the concept of race. Perhaps you will consider the words of Dr. Clarke.

President Trump Gives Ethiopians 60 Days to Leave-- & Haitians Too So, what about the Somalis? Well, I think that this is interesting to say the least! My research tells me that the Somalis are from a unique region in the Horn of Africa from the Ethiopians and at times, they had conflicts, however I also think that 'within context', both the Somalis and the Ethiopians are considered the same, especially when it comes to what is going on now.

Whatever happened to the Tiktok ban? In hindsight the ban didn't kill tiktok but merely stymied its growth in the usa. Tiktok was poised to knock meta/facebook/instagram or youtube out of the water and a media campaign led to governmental or private industry rules on workers which stymied the websites growth in the usa, although, tiktok's growth in the holistic human community is unrivaled. Tiktok is the world's biggest social media service.

I've been kinda scarce lately, because on a whim last week, I asked Chat GPT (Open AI), Claude (Anthropic), and Gemini (Google Deep Mind) to redesign my homepage. As part of the prompt, I gave it my code for the page. I fully expected Chat GPT to win as I have been using it to help me code my site for the past year at least. Chat GPT's results were worse that what I currently had in place, Claude's output was completely useless, and Gemini results were breath taking -- seriously! I was like, I can work with this! I basically, dropped everything and dedicated the past week to plowing through my site and redesigning the front end and cleaning up the back end. There …

Blktouch is a black owned website .https://blktouch.com/ Will the streaming subscriber revenue from sites like onlyfans grow in 2026? do you think the security physically or financially makes this an optimum time for adult work through the internet?

It's becoming increasingly obvious that many influencers in these so-called "New Black Media" and "FBA" movements that have been springing up all over social media for the past several years are actually Republican shills masquerading as Black content creators of independent thought. As much as they speak about tangibles for our vote, Reparations, and celebration of our lineage....there are several things they all seem to have in common: 1. They almost never criticize President Trump or the Republican party 2. They constantly criticize the Democrat Party and Democratic politicians both White and Black 3. They are very much anti Black immigrant. It …

In my view, his choice was honest or true, even if it cost him and Deep Space Nine having even one film, afterwards.

I knew she was smart and articulate or she wouldn't have gotten elected to Congress, but I didn't realize Rep. Omar was this attractive. Petite, professional, and conducts herself like a lady. Her and Jasmine Crockett need to get together and make SOMETHING happen....lol. I wouldn't mind seeing more of them in the future.

Last First Kiss by Julian Winters Published: January 27, 2026 Imprint: St. Martin’s Griffin View Book Details → The publisher just emailed me promotional info about this book today, but I was already aware of it and had added it to the site some time ago and forgot about it. When I saw the email at looked at the book's cover I could not help but think of @Pioneer1 and what he would think about this one. I could not help but laugh to myself. Of course, I'm part of the conspiracy to feminize the Black man 🙂

BLACK HISTORY? Little Tin Horn Soldier Meaning– Miseducation Revisited [Part 1 of 3] I recently enjoyed watching one of my favorite episodes of the late Angela Lansbury’s series, Murder She Wrote, Season 5, starring the late Richard Roundtree and this very subject was mentioned. In this episode, the crew of the airplane called ‘the Dixie Damsel’ was asked to come back to the base because the once lost airplane was found in the Alaskan snow, but also there was a dead body of one of the flight crew that was in the plane. So one high ranking military man, General Habermeyer, a White man, was angrily referred to as ‘a little tin horn soldier’. And late…

Rappers That Died Way Too Young Pt. 2 This really got me emotional. I don't know most these young men, except for Nipsey Hussle. The way they showed them when they were little fellas, then when they were older... Then they stopped smiling when they turned their heads... This hurts to see such beautiful people die so young.

https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5650998-graham-obama-biden-australia-hannukah-shooting/ POTUS Obama left the White House a decade ago. He's 3 administrations removed. Yet, Republicans still want to blame POTUS Obama for whatever is going wrong in the world today. POTUS OJ attacks ObamaCare aka Affordable Care Act every chance he gets. Otherwise, he's blaming POTUS PJB for leaving a mess for him to clean-up The queen Senator from South Carolina, Lindsey Graham claims it is the fault of both POTUS Obama and POTUS PJB that the shooting happened at Bondi Beach in Australia.

@Pioneer1How stupid can YOU get? I used the pronoun "you" because I'm directly addressing YOU, while fanning away the brain farts you try to pass off as valid ideas. Like now, in desperation, YOU continue to grasp at straws, unable to stop dreaming that I - care for you. ugh. Soooo, let me make myself perfectly clear, once and for all. I do not like YOU. To know you, is to despise you, which I do. Deflating and disagreeing with all the puke you are so full of, gratifies me, while totally confirming your personality disorders. I'm sure you will reject all this and continue to harbor the idea that, - with cool guys like Troy and ProfD and Delano…

@ProfD you have often listed "luck" as a key factor in success along with smarts, charisma, and hard work. Given your theological views, I'm curious as to what YOUR definition of luck is? Not the dictionary definition or the "official" definition, but I'm interested in YOUR PERSONAL perspective of what "luck" is. Do you think it's pure chance; or is there some sort of external intelligence of force that generates or guides it? Obviously anybody can chime in on this....lol. I tagged ProfD since he's the one who has mentioned this on multiple occasions. But I'm happy to hear (read) other explanations and perspectives.

San Francisco mayor quietly signs reparations fund that could lead to $5M payments per person San Francisco mayor quietly signs reparations fund that could lead to $5M payments per person They know good and dog gone well this plan won't lead to anybody getting Reparations. Just like that crap they're doing over in Maryland. .... just a trick or gimmick. CITIES AND STATES DO NOT PAY REPARATIONS Especially cities and states where slavery didn't officially exist...like Portland Oregon or San Francisco California. Reparations are only paid by National/Federal Governments. They KNOW this is going nowhere. The mayor…

The commentary quoted below is circulating around META. It expresses a popular point of view, but its message doesn't uplift me. It disturbs me. America is what it is, and the Trump trend shows no sign of abating. ******** "I’ve been watching an absolutely heroic amount of pearl-clutching lately from people who insist that J.D. Vance would somehow be “worse” than Trump once Trump’s inevitable political and biological expiration arrives. Let’s get something straight: it has never been about Trump, not for one second. Trump is just the mascot. The real story is the people who finally saw themselves in him and felt va…

https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/us-preparing-seize-more-tankers-off-venezuelas-coast-after-first-ship-taken-2025-12-11/ First, the US was blowing up boats under the guise of narco-terrorism. This week, the US has escalated into seizing oil tankers. Clearly, the US is in the process of forcing a regime change in Venezuela. The goal is to force President Nicolas Maduro into stepping down. POTUS OJ wasn't a warmonger during his 1st term. I'm guessing he feels weakened since Russian President Vlady Putin won't stop pummeling Ukraine. POTUS OJ has found a punching bag In Venezuela. There is no real outrage or push-back a…

Happen to catch these very clear videos of an interview allegedly done by NWA in London England, back in the day. (1990) I say "allegedly" because the videos are so remarkably clear that they look recent, as if it could be AI. Despite the callousness and often vulgar language, their responses are pretty quick and often witty. They show a level of maturity and none of them are fighting with eachother over who speaks or who gets to answer which question. There seems to be a "vibe" among them.

Let's call it for what it is..... Nigeria got pimp slapped. Nigeria claiming to "ok" this strike or even "ask" for it is just an effort to save face because in reality there wasn't much they could have done to stop it anyway. It's like that DJ Pooh in Friday trying to save face with Deebo by not asking for his bike back.......... He didn't ask for it back because he was AFRAID to. He knew Deebo would only give it back IF he wanted to and WHEN he wanted to and there wasn't shit he could do about it. He knew Deebo could easily beat his ass...lol. His ignorant ass father either didn't know or didn't understand this and tried to FORCE the boy to "stand …

I'm not dealing with the movie itself, but it's advertisement because far more people will see THAT than will take time to even watch the movie. It has the Black woman portraying a witch and the White girl (who's actually brunette in real life) with her hair dyed blonde and wearing a tiara representing goodness. It's a damn shame so many people don't even see the obvious racist undertones of how this movies is being advertised...as the one before it....and the psychological damage it's doing to Black children. Some of you are sitting up smiling right now wondering what the big deal is. FOOL How many times do we have to go in FUCKING CIR…

Son murdered mom after telling family members he was going to inherit her house whether she was 'dead or alive': cops While there, Nunez-Romano allegedly told officers that his mother was shot through a window. A gun was later found inside a kitchen drawer, as well as spent shell casings near Nunez-Romano's wallet, according to prosecutors. Romano was found on the second floor of her house, where Nunez-Romano also lived. She had gunshot wounds to her hip and neck. During the investigation, family and witnesses described Nunez-Romano as someone who had a history of acting "aggressive" and "unstable." A cousin alleged that his obses…

For those who have rolled into 2026, let's hope that it is a year filled with Love, Joy, Peace, Prosperity, Health and Happiness.🎉 In the meantime, I will continue calling balls & strikes i.e. offering my opinions/perspectives on whatever comes up around here. I enjoy the easy chair I've taken up.🤣 As always, many thanks to brotha @Troy for providing & maintaining this platform. Much appreciated.😎

https://apnews.com/article/nicki-minaj-charlie-kirk-erika-kirk-trump-b6f5b45521368447e174f040ae7eab8c Looks like rapper Nicki Minaj is a conservative supporter. She was a surprise guest at AmericaFest, a Turning Point USA event. Minaj had high praise for POTUS OJ and VPOTUS too. Apparently, the current administration makes her feel safer. Nicki Minaj is of Trinidadian descent. I'm not totally surprised with how she rolls politically. Especially after she's made several millions of dollars.😎

I too noticed the AfroAmerican community started gaining weight right around the early 80s.

Her sister Serena got herself one..... Now Venus had to run out and get HERSELF a White man to lay around and kiss on too. And THIS dude looks just like the shaggy headed muthaf--- Serena is slobbering all over. Where do they FIND these characters from? Do they produce them in some laboratory in Greece or Turkey; designed just for rich Black women who like to walk around showing off their White lovers????

One of our rather more outspoken....lol...contributors, said in another discussion: "The only people masculinizing black women are triflin' black men who have forced them to play the "father" role for the children they make and desert." While that may SEEM to be a valid point on it's surface, I can't help but notice something when I meet women from other cultures............. I've seen women from the Middle East and Afghanistan who grew up seeing all of the men of their village slaughtered, sometimes in front of them. Very traumatic. Yet these women still have kept their femininity. There are MILLIONS of women in the M…

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 pe…

The argument about penis size as it relates to the sex act, seems to be ongoing; "the bigger the better" being the consensus. But, I suspect there are no figures to support that claim, just as there is no concrete evidence that large penises are an inborn trait of black males, thereby making them better sex partners. And the point made in the girl-talk discussions I've been privy to for over 50 years has always been, it's not what you have, but what you do with what you have. Technique and good staying power favorably compete with a large member which can cause pain and injury. Interestingly enough, "width" got just as good marks as "length", making short…

Miss Ivory Coast, Olivia Yase, Has Just Relinquished Her Title as 4th Runner Up Miss Universe! I am so proud of her! It seem too, that more and more people are voicing their anger on how they believe that she was cheated out of the crown! Even though most of the contestants were gorgeous and awesome, it seems obvious that this girl won that crown! This one Brazilian man voiced his anger too, about Olivia being cheated out of the crown, and I am sure he too knows that Miss Brazilian was also a total beauty. There were so many other girls that I thought did so much better than the winner, for instance, Miss Puerto Rico was gorgeous. In the Intern…

I've been noticing that the SAME people who dye their hair blonde are usually the SAME people who celebrate Christmas, Easter, Thanks Giving, and any other day White people established for their "subjects" to celebrate. And both types usually use the same excuses for doing so. There was a time in America....roughly between 1965-1995....where Black folks were coming out of celebrating those pagan holidays and we were doing our own thing. That also was the same time period where Black women were more likely to embrace their natural hair texture and color! I don't think those examples are coincidences. And just like after around 1995 more AfroAm…

Recently British/Nigerian actress Cynthia Erivo has been featured on the cover of several magazines. Among them are GQ...a MEN'S magazine where she was featured among the "men of the year". Another is Harper's Bazaar where she's featured in photos with her muscles and tattoos on prominent display. For those of you who think this is some innocent or harmless work of art. Remember that Neely Fuller Jr. has been warning us for DECADES of the plans by the Racists to not just feminize Black men but also MASCULINIZE Black women!
