I should put that on a tee shirt. See I appreciate that as long as I have been familiar with Erick I has not read his work, and that quote is cool. Well, what do you mean by broke? Is owning a home and being self-sufficient, but unable to afford to buy expensive jewelry or lavish vacation qualify as broke? Someone like me. The dictionary definition can apply to anyone, as it does does not speak to the degree of intelligence a "moron" has some degree of intelligence. Would want to enter a relationship with someone impaired cognitive ability -- someone without the ability to craft and recite a lovely poem -- you know, someone like me😉 Correct on both accounts. Speaking of height at 5'7", I know women prize taller men over shorter ones all things being equal. While I don't really have a problem in the ladies department I know without the wealth of say Prince or Kevin Hart, it I was as short as they were, I would probably struggle... If I were 6'2", oh my 😁 That used to be true for me, but not any more! Yes but was he wealthy with above average intelligence? Man you should be writing for Tyler Perry I not a fan of these AI videos. The arguments are compelling but I can't trust the assumptions. It is if these videos are designed to support and substantiate what the viewer believes even if the presumptions and conclusions are untrue. I bet you could find another AI video just as compelling arguing something opposite. "Generation X" is a narrow 15-year period which I would discourage anyone from using as a lens to describe behavior. I KNOW people like simple explanations but why individuals behave in a particular way is usually a combination complex variables and being born between 1965 and 1980 is probably the least important. I'm a baby boomer (1962) but know plenty of guys born in 1965 and later. Virtually all of these cats got married. I'd have to think really hard to come up with some who it did. The few that come to mind are older than I am.

Michael's Magic
Yes because they were enamored with his celebrity. If wasn't Michael Jackson he would just another weirdo you'd hide you children from -- assuming he was not already in jail.

All-White Jury Selected in Karmelo Anthony Trial
@ProfD he stabbed the kid to death. They were on the same team. I don't know what happened, but there is little in my book that would justify snuffing out someone's life. Now if the white kid was a shot-putter and the Black kids could not take him without a weapon, OK, but still murder is too high a price -- what did the white boy actually do to the Brother? The same reason Charley Mason does sociopaths are prime entertainment for some people. My point exactly.

Who is We? and the International Parity
@richardmurray did you do any research on TicTok and China, or are gonna ignore that? Conflating all of these people (Frederick Douglass, Clarence Thomas, Michelle Obama, Clarence Williams, STanley Couch , You , Michael Jordan are all in the spirit of James Forten) you are painting with a very broad brush. That shortcut ignores is easy and avoids nuance which leads to false conclusions. Your rejection of the we ignored the fact that the "we" is responsible for all human progress. If is built into us, sure in can also lead to conflict but ethnicities and civilization would be impossible without it.

And the beat goes on...
So was it my imagination remembering him in drag? Just a garden variety cis-gendered gay dude huh? Going back to the original. @aka Contrarian It seems rather than entertaining the sisters (it is a Black platform) it seems the article was designed to rile them up by rubbing in their faces how intentional Miss Ann has been about beating their time. How are we served by that? If people need diversions from the BS of the day, folks can try reading a book 😉

Government Plans to Release UFO/UAP Files
At @ProfD, that is an interesting reaction? Why do you think they bothered to released that video? So you think the US has force field technology now? It is possible, but sheesh why keep that a secret? You know the Trump administration would do more civilization ending if our aircraft had force fields. 😉

Back to the Future: DOW Corporations and other large corporations move their Back offices to LATAM
My youngests were born in 92 and nd 93 and we lived in BK until 2001 or so. My car was stolen in 1992 that was the only problem we had, but I was in Park Slope so that might have been the difference. I remember thinking how much better Brooklyn was than when we were in High School. From my experience, Brooklyn (the entire city) was much worse in the 1970s. I know in the 90s they started locking brothers up left and right.

Government Plans to Release UFO/UAP Files
@ProfD I might have missed it; did you ever express an opinion on the UAP that was hit with a Tomahawk missile only for it to bounce off/ Clearly something was there. Clearly it was displayed technology far superior to what is known based on how it manuvered. The only thing we don't know is where it came from. It could be a number of things, but given What I saw "Alien" is not off the table. What do you think?

And the beat goes on...
I guess I could look it up, but I don't want to shift through the trash. Hi Magic's some gay and/or trans? I seem to remember seeing him dressed like a woman. If he is trans should he be allowed to play in the WNBA with the cisgender women?

Who is We? and the International Parity
"a Lie" Whoa, hold on there buddy! Those are strong words. The reality is that TikTok does not exist in China. I don't know who are are talking to in China, but if they ask for money -- run. ByteDance runs a completely different app in China with much stricter regulations designed to educate Chinese under 18. Under 14 you can ony use it for 40 minutes a day. No we get the "trash" with the infinite scroll of stupid videos keeping kids locked in for hours a day. What is eating at you man? Putting me in the same category as Clarence Thomas... that is almost as bad as calling me a liar. First where do YOU choose to live? That by definition is your home. It is disingenuous to rail against other across centuries not less about what they call home. this country is my home and I will fight to make it better. You can disagree but until you are living somewhere other than the "good ole USA" your admonishment falls flat.

Back to the Future: DOW Corporations and other large corporations move their Back offices to LATAM
I didn't know about this I lived more than a decade of my adult life in BK. Maybe you had to be in "the life" for it to be a problem? I actually emailed @Pioneer1 to now avail. I hope he is OK.

Where the heck is Pioneer?
Are you working toward a PhD @Mel Hopkins?

The irony of Truth
I’m not so sure about that bruh. BTE, my 10% figure is probably in the right ballpark. If 90% of the people use something and 10% use something completely different. The 10% are fringe, marginalized, outside the main stream, “different.” And as such, they exert no influence and others wonder what’s wrong with them. So no, Google search is not a monopoly but for all practical purposes they are. Meta does not have a monopoly on social media among Black people middle-age and older but effectively it does. And because this companies have monopolies they have a great deal of power, which day exert to our detriment. Again, the people on these platforms, using them every day posting pictures of their grandkids liking some rant against Thomas Sowel or sharing some cute puppy meme could care less about what I’m saying. But that doesn’t invalidate what I’m saying.

Shattering an Icon
@ProfD it sounds like you are equating conservatism with racism. Just because most racists are “conservative” does not mean conservatives racist. Shoot, the Klan are Christians.
