I'm waiting for both brothas @Pioneer1 & @frankster to answer that question if they're willing to do so.🤣😎

@Troy....thanks for being the traffic cop around here & keeping the place from over-running with sensitive 🤡 especially those with that kicked dog hollering mentality.😁😎

I've always taken that quote to mean setting one's mind to put in the work necessary to accomplish anything an individual wants to do. Talking & dreaming doesn't bring an abundance of anything. Gotta put in work to make it happen. There's a point at which one has enough. Eat enough food & one is full. Being greedy & overeating makes a person sick. Lust can lead to degenerate behavior. IMO, greed & lust are negative extremes of human desire when a person is willing to bring hurt, harm or danger to others in their pursuit of weslth, material possessions &/or human affection. Also IMO, a wise & content person knows when they have everything they need to live comfortably in peace, joy & happiness.😎

The heads of kings roll when they are overthrown either by a stronger adversary or their corruption &/or brutality runs so deep that people get fed up & revolt. A waste of time & money especially when asking powerful & wealthy people to investigate themselves. That's why they never get to the bottom of high-profile assassinations & 9/11 atracks & other crimes.😎

The hellfire missile did not explode or damage the object either. Just bounced off. That's a miss.😁😎

That hellfire missile missed on purpose too. The military inspires & learns a lot from Hollywood movies.😎

The perpetrators of the COVID-19 crime are those in the highest levels of power & government. Good luck prosecuting wealthy businessmen & heads of state. An employee like Dr. Fauci would be a fall guy at the very least. He is a mere pawn in the game. Follow the money. Both political parties are complicit in the crime. Neither will investigate itself. Sen. Rand Paul is just stirring up one of several distractions to keep 1) Congress from doing any real work & 2) American citizens going down rabbit holes. dazed & confused. The UFOs & Epstein files & COVID-19 & other conspiracies & wars, etc., are alternative forms of entertainment to keep American citizens from focusing on how they are being lied to & fleeced as greedy people enrich themselves at their expense.😎

It is ridiculous that they are bringing up & trying to relitigate the COVID-19 pandemic. A distraction from what's going on now. IMO, there's nothing that can undo everything that happened 6 years ago during the pandemic. The dead cannot be brought back. The people suffering long-haul COVID-19 cannot be healed. The vaccinated people have to wait & see how it plays out in the long run. Despite being home-schooled for a year or so, the kids who were in 6th grade in 2020 have graduated high school this past spring. The pandemic is in the rearview mirror of most people. I notice the GOP isn't going after those Epstein files with the same energy. 🤣 Nor is Congress keeping POTUS OJ from blowing up fishing boats & starting unnecessary wars & grifting billions of dollars for himself, family & friends. Makes sense that Congress would rather distract & deflect from what's really going on while enriching themselves too.😎

There's a US military explanation for every UFO/UAP people have ever seen. Top Secret military programs. The US military has to test the latest technology at some point. Late at night up in the sky &/or in the middle of nowhere makes sense. 😎

It's relatively easy to do when one controls power. The question becomes why is Andrew Gillum putting himself in compromising positions literally.🤣 That was a hit job by white power. J. Edgar Hoover put a whole task force on trying to catch Dr. MLK Jr. slipping. They really couldn't do it. The media is an arm of racism white supremacy. At some point, Black folks have to stop believing they can get away with the same degenerate sh8t white folks do. It never ends well for our people.😎

Imagine it being someone's job to catch spirits & stuff them in bottles for people to drink.🤣😎

I don't believe the young man deserved to lose his life in this situation. I don't believe sending the woman to prison for life will solve anything either. Again, I don't think death is an appropriate response to a consensual situation. Young people get sent off to fight & die in senseless wars. Death was not warranted but that young man had zero bizness hanging out with a 13-year old. There's no shortage of females of legal age in Memphis. I don't think anyone would argue against the woman making a terrible decision. She will never own a gun again. She's only 13-years-old. I know he didn't go over there to help her play with dolls.🤣😎

To let folks pour a bunch of foolishness into it....no thanks.🤣 I'm perfectly fine not believing in spirits & Santa Claus & Big Foot & UFOs, etc.😁 Still, there's no shortage of entertainment around.😎

Agreed. I can certainly roll with it.👍🏿😎

I am still rooting for Burkinabe leader Ibrahim Traore to win in gaining true sovereignty for his country Burkina Faso. I have been proud of this young Black man since he burst onto the scene several years ago. Other Black so called leaders should be taking note of what he's trying to do for his country & supporting him & moving in a similar direction for their own countries. Unfortunately, greed & corruption has compromised far too many leaders who would rather enrich themselves; friends & family instead of looking out for the greater good of their entire country. I hope that leader Ibrahim Traore has surrounded himself with loyal soldiers. The West is not going to allow him to lead in peace.😎

The charge should be reduced to manslaughter where she only has to do no more than 10 years. Unfortunately, we live in a punk azz society where it's wrong to blame victims &/or hold them accountable especially young people.😁 This will definitely test their new stand your ground law. While he was still in the property, being shot in the back of his head does give off exexcution more than self-defense. Being able to pick & choose who gets to own a firearm is a slippery slope in a country with very strong feelings about 2nd amendment rights. Poor decisions were made across the board. The daughter should not have invited the young man into a lion's den. The 20-year old young man should not have wanted to bang a 13-year old girl. Even if the young man didn't know how old she was through online communication, he should have realized it upon showing up & turned around & left immediately. It has been mentioned that the young man may have been mentally slow. Yet, he had enough sense to communicate online. The mom was so frustrated with herself as a parent & her inability to keep her daughter in check that she lost it. Now, she has to pay for a decision made in anger.😎

Correct. Prime age folks will drop out of the workforce voluntarily & involuntarily. Right. If the unemployed are pursuing other things that could be beneficial to society, that would be great. Sitting around socializing, relaxing & leisure is unproductive. There's so much that can be built, fixed & maintained. Sure. Creative people enhance culture. They provide a benefit to society. They're not sitting around playing video ganes all day. As I mentioned in the socialism theead, it doesn't make sense for a handful of people to be multimillionaire or billionaire or trillionaire. Nobody in the richest nation on the planet should be poor. Everyone should have acces to housing, food & healthcare. IMO, men are not supposed to live a life of leisure. Not as long as there are things that need to be done & problems to solve. Right. Some folks need to be motivated into being productive. That's the benefit of benevolent dictatorship.😎

Of course I don't believe in possession. Same goes for people "speaking in tongues". It's all foolishness.🤣 Surely, no one is surprised that I'm a non-believer in such things. Especially not brotha @frankster.😁😎

The article just highlights a situation I've seen for decades. It's only going to get worse in a few more years.😎

https://people.com/mom-charged-with-murder-after-allegedly-shooting-man-found-under-kids-bed-12022160 A 38-year old Memphis mom shot & killed a 20-year old man who she found hiding under her 13-year-old daughter's bed. Around 1 a.m., the Ring camera on her alerted mom that someone was entering her house. She left work to investigate the situation. Upon returning home, the mom found a young man hiding under the daughter's bed. In her own words, she "did what she had to do". There is some belief the daughter met the young man online & invited him over to the house. It is unfortunate that young man lost his life over some snatchbox. Also, it is unfortunate that mom may be facing life in prison. There are no winners regardless of how this situation plays out. However, the daughter has even more freedom now. Hope this is a cautionary tale for dudes to stop kicking it with childen. Never know when a parent or some other adult will have the drop on that pedophilic azz.😎

No surprise. Just like Nolan Wells, some Black folks have reached a level of comfortability being the only one of a few around white folks. Since I was born & raised in a Chocolate City, I would never put myself in that type of situation. I tell white associates the same thing. We're cool but there's no way I would never be the only Black person among them.🤣😎

Of course, I do not think it is real. I understand it to be another spin on one of the recurring themes in Hollywood movies.😎

The fact that NILF/NEET folks between 21-54 years old have always existed to some degree whether being trust fund or living off other people; it's easy to believe those #s will increase with AI taking jobs. If a UBI comes to fruition, I also believe it will definitely lead to more NILF/NEET folks because they will have just enough money to continue living off other people. Again, there's no shortage of able-bodied people between the age of 21-54 who do not work for one reason or several.😎

Tax liability can be reduced by employing more people. US Department of Labor. They are stll being exploited. I know the definitions. I question who gets to make the laws. Wealth can be spread &/or sheltered before it gets taxed. There's no reason to have a class of have-nots. Easier said than done for a whole lotta folks across generations. Very few people actually do hard work. Most working folks don't become rich or wealthy. People who inherit money didn't earn it either. Right. They do get to keep & enjoy most of that money after taxes. A woman is not a man's possession like money & material things. Right. The system would have to be fair & balanced....produce justice. Humans have the ability to think, rationalize & reason & solve problems constructively. 😎

This movie is an interesting take on possession: Possession is another phenomena that will continue to fascinate humans & generate money in the form of books, TV & film.😎
