  1. Never too late but the people POTUS OJ is enriching are very glad they put him in place. He's doing exactly what he was elected to do.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  2. The point is that there is no lack of knowledge as it relates to physics. From structural engineering to mitigating disaster, there's no shortage of people who know how to build solid structures. New York City is filled with buildings. Same goes for other places all over the planet showing visual proof of engineering genius. Elastomeric bearings are being added to buildings in earthquake prone cities. Physics is child's play to a lot of folks. Right. The engineers knew better between shaving the footings on the south building to failing to reinforce the foundation at signs of water damage. Although lawsuits totalled more than $1 billion dollars...follow the money to understand initiall motivation. It wasnt bad engineering more than poor decision-making. Beyond physics...follow the money. Again, the experts who really know what happened are not at liberty to discuss such things. No different from US assassinations & other events.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  3. Aways great to hear that African countries are doing for themselves instead of being used by & depending on colonizers & imperialists & opportunists.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  4. No surprise...POTUS OJ has extended the cease-fire in Iran. POTUS Oj is giving the fractured Iranian leadership time to come up with a reasonable proposal.๐Ÿ™„ IOW, these people are kicking a can down the street. Follow the money.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  5. Time flies. Prince was truly a musical genius. Thankfully, he left us with a treasure trove of music both composed & inspired by him.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  6. It is well-known that J. Edgar Hoover's FBI surveilled & undermined Black progress in every imaginable way. Of course, roses grew up through concrete.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  7. The planet will be fine. Humans will be extinct long before the Earth becomes devoid of sunlight & too cold for habitation. This system has benefitted the USA for a century & counting. Despite our knowledge of construction & engineering, there has been no shortage of disasters. Back in 2021, the Champlain Tower South condo collapsed. The subsequent investigation revealed structural flaws & issues with regard to how it was built & the elements that contributed to it. Every generation believes the future is doomed to fail. I remember those days when my long gone elders talked about the last & evil days & how the world was going to h8ll in a handbasket. That was over a half-century ago... Yet, the beat continues as it only takes a small percentage of the population to innovate &/or maintain the status quo.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  8. The question is something that is so essential to human existence yet very people feel a need to know eveything about it. Maybe they enjoyed living more than being unalived. They are doing whatever it takes to survive & take care of their families & enjoy this ride called life.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  9. Human survival is dependent on oxygen too. Yet, the average person does not think too much about &/or knows scientifically what it takes for them to survive. Being out of touch with reality is subjective. It is dependent on that which is important to a person or a group of people. For example, rich people have no idea of what other people are talking about when it comes to their reality of the cost of groceries, gas, healthcare, etc.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  10. Less than 0.00001% of the population cares about it. That's hilarious. One day, AI aka SIS will put a whole lot of people out work.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  11. Absolutely. Only a small percentage of the population has ever been smart enough to do great things. Creativity & innovation aren't tied to literacy rates. Same goes for basic human behavior. Last week, a few astronauts returned from a trip around the moon supposedly.๐Ÿ˜‰ NASA still uses a lot of the same engineering of 50 years ago to build the spacecraft. Heat shields prime example. Computer & AI is derivative technology built up over the past 50 years & counting.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  12. Legally, POTUS OJ cannot run again.๐Ÿคญ is being reported that POTUS OJ Is losing the base because he 1) reneged on campaign promises & 2) hasn't made their lives better & 3) grifting from the White House.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  13. The alternatives to optimism are indifference, despair, depression & suicide.๐Ÿคฃ Very few people give that much of a d8mn about the current state of foolishness to go over to the other side.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  14. https://www.usnews.com/news/u-s-news-decision-points/articles/2026-04-13/lawmakers-behaving-badly-house-considers-historic-expulsion-spree Rep. Eric Swallwell (D-CA) & Rep. Tony Gonzalez (R-TX) have resigned from Congress amid s8xual allegations. Swallwell, who was a serious Democratic contender running for Governor, of California, has been accused of raping several women. Of couse, he denies it. Rep. Gonzalez has admitted to having an affair with a staffer who committed suicide by immolation (setting herself on fire). Two (2) Congress-folks facing expulsion: Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) who has been accused of stealing millions of dollars. Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) has been accused of threatening to release explicit photos of a former girlfriend. A judge has granted her a protective order against him. Both political parties are equally represented by these people. Guess politicians are trying to shake the boring persona. Some have gone too far.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  15. POTUS OJ posted another picture in doubling down his mockery of Christianity.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  16. Gotcha. No worries. I'm perfectly fine as long as my login works here.๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  17. @aka Contrarian ...everything you wrote about POTUS OJ is true. The reality is that millions of Americans are perfectly fine with POTUS OJ & his BS. Unfortunately, POTUS OJ is the spawn of h8ll that will be broadcast around the world on America's 250th birthday. Ta-Da.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  18. Our login credentials work fine for the AALBC forum. I've noticed the other part of AALBC wanted me to sign-up (my regular login didn't work).๐Ÿ˜Ž
  19. This week, as a distraction to the dust-up in Iran & stalled negotiations, POTUS OJ decided to disagree with Pope Leo XIV & depict himself as Jesus. Of course, neither Catholics nor Evangelical Christians condemned the actions to any significant degree. I love the phrase as it relates to people in general..."moral relativism & situational ethics". ๐Ÿ˜ On a daily basis, the actions of POTUS OJ reinforce what people think, believe &/or are willing to accept.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  20. The new look is fantastic. @Troy ...thanks again for everything you do & the sweat equity you pour into the site.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  21. Right. All they have to do is stop buying his music & attending his concerts. Kanye's So-Fi show this past weekend grossed over $30 million dollars. I'd imagine a lotta white folks were there. Some Jews too.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  22. White folks want Kanye to grovel around for his alleged antisemitic remarks. It totally unnerves white folks that Ye is still making money. In the meantime, that does not stop the same white folks from smiling, laughing & shaking hands with known terrorists who want to wipe Israel off the map. The funny part is that MAGA ship is sinking. It will be totally underwater whenever POTUS OJ leaves office. Unfortunately, some of these dumbazz n8gglets will drink the Kool-Aid & allow a battery to be placed in their backs. I don't believe it takes that much for some Black folks to bet against themselves. I watch too much news. One of the funny things another funny thing to see is [pick a group of people] siding with those who are either oppressing &/or blowing up their countrymen. Right now, Westernized Persians will get on TV & talk about how bad Iran is & how great America is for blowing up their former home country. It reminds me of n8gglets like Tim Scott & Byron Donalds who would downplay slavery & racism while kissing POTUS OJ's azz.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  23. Comedy was built on people insulting & pranking each other.๐Ÿ˜ Obviously, that is your call to make but know that from a comedian's perspective, you're very good at clapping back.๐Ÿคฃ I respect your desire to do something different from having the last word but if there is any *fun* in it...keep going. Life is short.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  24. Companies don't have to set traps for people to lose their jobs. A company can get rid of employees a number of ways. The easiest way is to claim the company is not making rnough money & has to let people go. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
