Right. It's subjective. A committee would have to be established to hammer out a criteria for ugly to which the people agree. That's never going to happen.

Some folks show up in the coffeeshop for a few posts and get back on the bus. The usual suspects are still here to keep the spot alive and kicking. We need to spray some insect repellent or set traps for the racists though.

@Pioneer1, according to NF Jr., Black men aren't qualified to be husbands or fathers. The reality is Black men cannot afford to be jealous if our sistas decide to date someone else. Unfortunately, the ratio is not even when it comes to Black men and women being of equal status. There are many intelligent and successful sistas who will have a hard time finding a brotha of equal or higher status. Dont get it twisted...while a sista will take a brotha below her pay grade, there will be issues. Men are not designed to be the tail. While there are always exceptions, in every other culture, the roles of men and women are clearly defined based on their traditions. They have a code. Until Black men are better prepared to take care of Black women, it makes no sense for them got jealous and start huffin' and puffin' and yellin' and cussin' because they can't afford them. If the Black man fails to get his weight up and stay on code, Black women will find themselves in someone else's arms. There's little or nothing a Black man can do about it especially if he's broke, er, underfunded and/or dumb, er, unintelligent.

We don't have to call her obese but her doctor will. Your eyesight is hella good if you can see her bone structure. Her skeleton will look a lot different and bare little or no resemblance to her human outfit. The frame of a human being can carry a lot of weight. Most overweight folks are fat. Athletic built folks are muscular.

Until the ladies respond, let me offer this...brothas need to stop it with the Begin: That sh8t looks like hair dyed with black shoe polish.

I still find it ridiculous that this former POTUS gets so much attention. The media isn't covering Carter, Clinton, Bush and Obama nearly as much. As @richardmurray alluded, the real question is what do the American people expect to happen to the clown. I guess the only benefit to putting the clown bars would be to keep him from becoming POTUS again. There's no guarantee in that either. Those goofy azz supporters might get the clown re-elected anyway.

@Cynique, as you know, I wholeheartedly believe in humor and laughter is the best medicine. Human beings absolutely should indulge in their guilty pleasures to break up the mundane and monotonous aspects of life. Moderation is the key to a healthy balance in all things. Too much junk food whether it is physical or mental is not good.

They were trying to get him on tax evasion before he became POTUS. Other infractions he's committed: 1) Admitted to grabbing women's body parts 2) Impeached twice 3) Sided with Russia 4) Election meddling 5) Incited an insurrection 6) Kept classified documents Of course, not everything is punishable in a court of law but it is punishable in the court of public opinion. Yet, the clown still has a ton of supporters all over the country. My point is...the man clearly understands the power of white privilege. When the dust settles and smoke clears, the former POTUS will walk away scot-free. OTOH, NY DA Alvin Bragg might be working at the Car Wash.

For once @richardmurray and I are in agreement. These charges for which the former POTUS is being indicted are the equivalent of a witch hunt. The former POTUS has more dirt on him than paying hush money to a porn star over 7 years ago. NY is wasting a ton of taxpayers money. The former POTUS will not be going to prison for this BS.

Neither grounded nor bedazzled but entertained. My pleasure. Feel free to share the lotto numbers you're going to play when those planets line up with the moon.

Well sista @Cynique, as it was explained to me eons ago, folks come into your life for a reason and/or a season(s). Maybe the mirage, er, oasis that bedazzled with knowledge and wisdom has fulfilled its virtual purpose in your life. Now, you're left with the same ole peanut gallery. Ta da...

Facts. The funniest part is they don't consider the brotha a hero for fatally shooting that white female in the Capitol. In fact, she's a martyr for the Jan 6th movement. Meanwhile, in the voice of NF Jr., the law enforcement folks who took down the mass shooter in Nashville a few days ago will get a ticker tape parade next week. hero. It's all a game. The former POTUS aka Orange One is playing it up.

Ice-T is from California but he honored Eric Adams Hip-Hop Mayor of NYC. Black folks with money are mostly Democrats so it makes sense that in NYC Eric Adams would get their endorsement.

@Chevdove, I'm willing to bet the American-Asian children born to black fathers had it better than the Black Asians left behind after the war. Considering her identity claims, VP Kamala Harris isn't doing too badly for herself.

@Pioneer1, as you know in our democratic system the POTUS has limited power over the legislative and judicial branches of government. in fact, the checks and balances kept the former POTUS from being a dictator and going after his real or imaginary enemies. IMO, most politicians are playing the same dirty game. That's why these investigations don't seem to go anywhere. A great example is the Jan 6th committee that wasted a whole lot of time and money to tell us the same thing we saw on video. They're still studying Jan 6th two (2) years later. Some believe former POTUS instigated it. No charges yet.

@Pioneer1, see the last sentence of my previous post in this thread. The former clown-in-chief and his ilk do not believe the rules apply to them. The main reason most of them are reluctant to charge or indict him with anything is because many are just as dirty. They don't want their closet doors flung open.

Throughout history, the byproduct of military conflicts and occupations has been mixed bred people. While many of those folks have been treated poorly in their home country, some are allowed to live a normal and productive life especially if they can pass in one way or another.

Comedian Katt Williams is example of someone who has done very well for himself relying mainly on an AfroAmerican audience. Katt Williams is to comedy what Frankie Beverly & Maze is to Black music. They can always make their money in in chocolate cities. Katt will probably never have the net worth of his peer comedians. But, Katt's conscience should always be clear as long he doesn't become a hoe for Holly-Weird,

D8mn bro...that's a h8ll of long time for whites to be running sh8t all over the planet and for Chinese to be 2nd in command.

According to body/mass index she would be considered obese. Don't get it twisted, *I* have no use for the western definition of obesity. Black folks need a different scale. In my mind, Black folks aren't obese until they can't do normal physical activities like walking up a few steps and being out of breath but still hungry.

Bro, not to intrude on the convo but from a medical perspective your preferred fat sista is considered obese regardless of how she's carrying it. Back to the regularly scheduled program.

Whenever I see a midget they remind me of the circus.

The 1st article warning that there could be potential protests, death and destruction is not a threat. Now, the picture of him holding a baseball bat next to a pic of NY DA Bragg could be seen as a threat. That's why the post was deleted. It's a crime to threaten a public official. Otherwise, you already know why the former POTUS has been getting away with everything he does. The clown knows the tiger is toothless i.e. the rules (laws) don't apply to him.

IMO, colorism has been ongoing for as long as human beings have been reproducing across color lines. H8ll, pale white folks throw shade at their darker, greasy looking white cousins too.

Fam, it's easy for a racist coward or cyber-bully to show and start typing noise and nonsense. We know they wouldn't be as bold and let it happen out in them streetz unless they wanted that azz beat. i definitely understand @Chevdove clapping the drunken fool up to a point. But, as brotha and sista, @Pioneer1 and @Chevdove, y'all need to hug and shake hands.
