Still gross to blow and stuff that handkerchief in a pocket.🤣 Surely, that's why Kleenex was invented.😎

Nikola Tesla's Wardenclyffe Tower never materialized. It was sold for scrap in 1917. Similarly, in 2018, Texas based Viziv Industries took at shot with Zenneck surface wave which was supposed to transmit electromagnetic waves through the air. The company filed for bankruptcy in 2021. So, if someone with even less funding to support the infrastructure required to produce a radio wave based energy source can come up with it, he will be come a very wealthy man.😎

As figured, economists are saying the 24 hour blackout on 28th Feb didn't register. A real shake-up would have to be a coordinated effort and sustained over a period of time. American consumers aren't going to get with such a program. H8ll, these are the same people who are willing to pay $10 dollars for a carton of eggs.🤣😎

There's definitely an element of that among Black folks. Grasping at any type of success and/or living vicariously through others seems to be an opiate. Of course, the opposite end of the spectrum is h8ters. Black folks who refuse to happy with for the accomplishments and achievements of others. Black countries with brilliant minds and positive leadership should be thriving on all levels.😎

Every generation from the Silent to Baby Boomers to GenX seems to have some type of concern for the next coming up behind them. Before there was computers, internet and social media, many people built and/or maintained relationships through writing letters. Especially those who were in the military or school or courting long distance. Humans are social creatures. They will eventually emerge from behind their technology to hook up and procreate. Otherwise, humanity as we know it disappear. Those of us over 50 years old have more immediate concerns. We're closer to the finish line.🤣 We managed not to blow up the world. I believe the *kids* will be all right in the long run.😎

Regardless of the times we live in, the onus remains on us individually to adapt and sift through and filter out the noise. Technology makes it different but the game remains the same.😎

Sure. Something guided towards reading material whether it was a recommendation or author familiarity or an interesting cover, etc. Ad blockers can reduce if it's an annoyance. 😎

Reverend William Barber preached a good message. My inner comedian couldn't help but chuckle as Rev. Barber used that handkerchief several times to wipe his nose. He'd fold it into his hand. Preach a bit. Use it again. Just seems nasty.🤣 Handkerchiefs look great in a suit pocket. All bets off once it's used and especially if it gets stuffed back in a pocket.😁😎

https://apnews.com/article/investor-visas-trump-immigration-eb5-gold-cards-cdb943dd1633bc234bb715fa20914e05 Most of those reading this thread are probably already citizens. It didn't cost much. POTUS OJ is proposing a $5 million Gold Card as a path to citizenship. This Card would replace the EB-5 visa. No surprise that a supposed billionaire would be willing to sell citizenship to rich fols. The most glaring issue I see is that rich people can freely travel back and forth to the US. They already have homes here too. Surely, there are plenty people who can afford the Gold Card Visa. I just don't see a point in them buying it.😎

There's never been a shortage of useless and/or erroneous information from printed material to digital. Whether it's libraries or the information superhighway, the onus remains on the individual having to seek out the *right* information to gain more useful knowledge.😎

I haven't watched the videos either. From an engineering perspective, it raises questions but I try not to rain on a parade.😁😎

It will take a miracle but the solution to their problems is for victims (poverty) to turn from their self-destructive behavior to wage war against the victimizers (greedy oppressors). It's helpful to know 1) how Black folks got the money and resources to build and 2) why white folks were so easily able to destroy it.😎

This reads like the equivalent of a kid sticking fingers in ears and closings eyes and pouting. The reality is that a twice impeached, convicted felon has become POTUS again. The effort should be placed on finding and grooming strong candidates to replace Republicans in the mid-terms. That will make the clown-in-chief a lame duck. Replace him with a stronger candidate in 2028. I might tune in to Roland's SOTU counter to see if they're merely grieving or putting forth constructive solutions. 😎

I certainly hope Mr. Chikumbutso is afforded the opportunity to prosper from his invention. Also, the man needs to be protected from the henchmen of capitalists who would steal it. 😎

Agreed. The boycott would have to last for 6 months or longer in order to be effective. @Troy, I believe the boycott was mentioned in a DEI thread.😎

The scientists are probably being told not to reveal too much publicly in order to keep people from panicking and causing confusion.😎

Yep. The term Race soldier was coined by the recently departed Neely Fuller Jr. Race soldiers are the law enforcement branch of white supremacy who far too often have gotten away with killing or injuring umarmed Black folks.😎

https://apnews.com/article/angie-stone-car-crash-singer-41a7094f6d3aaa224902497f17e0204d R&B/Soul singer Angie Stone died in a car accident early Saturday morning. Long before her R&B run, Angie Stone was Angie B was in the rap group Sequence that had a minor hit with "Funk You Up". Angie Stone was in an R&B group called Vertical Hold. There she met and had a baby by Michael Archer the dude we know professionally as D'Angelo. Our beautiful chocolate sista could flat out sang. Thanks for the music. RIP Ms. Angie Stone.😎

While it's true that Vlady is feeding Russian soldiers into a woodchipper, he's still controlling certain portions of Ukraine and they will not be joining NATO. POTUS OJ seems determined to help Russia get out of the conflict with everything it wants. Shortly after any cease-fire deal, I'd imagine POTUS OJ will remove sanctions that will help Vlady rebuild the Russian economy too.😎

https://apnews.com/article/zelenskyy-security-guarantees-trump-meeting-washington-eebdf97b663c2cdc9e51fa346b09591d Ukrainian President Zelensky was supposed to show up at the White House Oval Office to sign a minerals deal, shake hands and smile for the cameras. Go home to a cease-fire. Instead, President Zelensky was ambushed by POTUS OJ and his VP. They clearly feel differently about him than the previous administration. Zelensky stood his ground and vowed to keep fighting. Needless to type, President Zelensky was booted out of the Oval Office. No deal. No post-meeting news conference. Ukraine will have to continue being pummeled by Russia. The winner today was President Vlady Putin.😎

Yep. There are both men and women who understand the *value* in paying folks to please them and leave with no strings attached. No drama. No stress. Strictly bizness.😎

The information superhighway is available to everyone. Even the poorest folks have access to computers. They can seek out help. The inability to solve problems constructively will always leave people in a vulnerable position. Destructive behaviors only make it worse. Neither. White supremacy runs the world. A few issues there...1) Black folks didn't have enough resources to buy equipment and materials to build and 2) post-slavery white folks weren't going to hire and pay Black folks to work for them and 3) white folks weren't going to consume whatever Black folks produced. Post-Slavery Black folks were in a situation of not having...no job, money, housing, transportation, etc. It's hard to build from a net negative position.😎

Men have been paying for s8x directly or indirectly since the beginning of time. Some men are lucky enough to get the full range of services for free. Athletes and entertainers have no shortage of folks throwing themselves at them wherever they go. Of course, it's a land mine out there.🤣😎

The cancelation of Joy's show is a direct response to the reelection of POTUS OJ. There's a shake-up in Left-leaning media. Joy Reid is a casualty of it. Black folks couldn't save her show. Only white folks could have done it had they elected a different POTUS. If Stephen A. Smith doesn't continue bringing in viewership to his white paymasters at ESPN, he'll get dumped too. Smith already has a podcast and cache with the likes of Chris Cuomo and Bill O'Reilly. He has a safe space within white media for now.😎

Sharing opinions on current events and topics seems to be an entertainment form of journalism. All of the aforementioned folks have enough followers to start a podcast if they haven't already. Joining forces might make it even stronger. Someone like Joy Reid should be able to do something independent of white-owned media with decades of on air experience. Getting fired from white media can be a blessing. Especially when some of these folks are already millionaires. 😎
