  1. I figured you weren't rocking the 'rows out in them streetz.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  2. That look cracks me up.๐Ÿคฃ Understood. Cornrows underneath the hat seems to be the next best thing to a cut. Simple is the way to good.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  3. As i mentioned in another thread in response to @frankster...the greed and corruption in these countries influence their *business* decisions. It's par for the course considering how Black folks flee their native countries looking for opportunities in white countries. Sure. They never show females as detainees. Doubt they will be sending them to African countries. Whose fault would it be if the natives accept it? There's already a huge middle eastern presence in African countries. The Spanish won't look outta place.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  4. Africans have been sending money back home for decades. Their home countries don't seem to be improving. Sure...a few more family members are living better. Greed and corruption and foreigners are still running the show. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  5. Lottery winners of a million dollars or more usually aren't going to admit it publicly. Have you ever considered or cut your hair short to rock underneath your hats? I'm still waiting for a family member or friend who has gone over to the other side to confirm that it exists so that I can get my sh8t together. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  6. Anything is possible. I've got quite a few Africans in my extended family. They build houses and send money back home but otherwise don't appear to be *fixing* a d8mn thing. They're living high on the hog over here.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  7. Just like people, countries can be bought too. Follow the money. They are not accepting immigrants for FREE.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  8. Whatever the reason(s) for failure they are not back *home* trying to fix it.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  9. Gotta wonder whose money is behind organizing both protests and burglary rings. I remember when folks in Atlanta were being given bricks to smash windows during George Floyd protests. Most recently, the Israel-Gaza conflict protesters on college campuses were being funded by outsiders. It's similar to how illegal guns and drugs show up in certain cities. There's dark money behind both sides of every issue. The burglary rings could have been created to reinforce the narrative that the national guard help is needed. Funny thing is the national guard doesn't have any police powers. Their presence in Chi-town would only last until they leave.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  10. https://www.npr.org/2025/09/06/nx-s1-5532148/national-guard-chicago-baltimore-new-orleans Chicagoans are protesting POTUS OJ's threatened occupation of Chi-town by national guard. ICE agents are showing up too. They have gotten the immigrant community shook to the point of canceling events. Ridiculous.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  11. Da Bears should be able to get past the Vikings with QB JJ McCarthy getting his 1st NFL start.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  12. I'll have to read back through posts where I've objectified women. Not my thing. IMO, referencing a woman's body odor doesn't objectify her. It's descriptive.๐Ÿ˜ Guilty as charged. Figured it was less crass than a few other names I could have used.๐Ÿคฃ Again, I cannot recall us having a dialog about how much we love to poke snatchbox. Cheerleader isn't my style. I do recall the offense you took to my suggestion that young men should use older woman as a playground and bring a tub of vaseline or K-Y.๐Ÿคฃ Otherwise, while there may be some semblance of locker room banter between us it is usually low brow. We're not objectifying women or being chauvinistic. Definitely not homophobic. Believe everyone has a right to live their best life as long as they're not bringing hurt, harm or danger tonothers. Like snatchbox, I probably started use of the term alphabet soup community around here too. Not as a homophobic slur though. @aka Contrarian, while I can appreciate your brand of feminism, just know that it's not going to derail my commentary or sense of humor as it relates to women.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  13. That's funny. As a platinum member of the hetero community, while my appreciation of women is unmatched and my affinity for snatch box is undisputed, I have never detailed my escapades and adventures in tickling tulips on this forum or anywhere else.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  14. Not sure what you mean but I was referring to the initial reports several years ago of sealing vaccine paperwork for 75 years. If the paperwork has been released sufficiently, all questions should be answered. Nothing to debate. Yet, some folks are still in doubt of what it was all about for good reason. in general, I'm skeptical of most everything sold to the public especially when politicians have anything to do with it. Sure. There is information available. Still have to do your own research and often times, believe half of what is seen and none of what is heard...or take it with a grain of salt. There's no shortage of sleight of hand tricks being played when it comes to everything.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  15. No other culture embraces and pushes it to the degree that America does. They would be killed in the public square. When POTUS Obama tried to encourage Kenyans to embrace the alphabet soup community, they told him to mind his own gotd8mn bizness.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  16. I'm not suggesting there people are becoming or turned into being effeminate or masculine. The acceptance of effeminate in men and masculine in women behavior and images has been normalized especially when it comes to black folks. I have seen most of the Madea movies except for the most recent. Black men are not usually portrayed as *strong* characters and leaders in those movies. But, as mentioned, the Madea movies are intended to be low humor. While the Madea movies may not be designed to make social statements and/or reflect stereotypical images...they do.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  17. Credentials be d8mned...anybody can be a journalist or a critic nowadays. Same goes for many other endeavors in today's clown world. Qualifications are becoming more loose. Just hang a shingle or start a blog or podcast or a YouTube channel (influencer) or post thoughts on the internet or social media. There's no shortage of *followers* being led by people and institutions with little or no credibility. Most polls and lists can be used as toilet paper.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  18. The decision to seal the vaccine contents for 75 years raised my eyebrow. Most of the people who received the jab during the pandemic will be dead and gone in 75 years. The youngest person to have received the vaccination during the pandemic will be well over 80 years old if/when the file is unsealed. Of course, the current administration could possibly have the file unsealed within the next 3.5 years if there is a case to made. At the rate they are coming against the Center for Disease Control (CDC), the Department of Health and Human services (HHS) under its current leadership might spill the tea even sooner. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  19. IMO, you have reached the zenith of life. We should all be so fortunate to get there. Relative good health is a bonus in the zenith of life. There is no shortage of posts that we express how much we enjoy your input here. I certainly look forward to and get a kick out of your ramblings. Keep posting as long as time allows..๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ˜Ž
  20. The feminization of Black men and masculinization of Black women is another form of divide and conquer under the system of racism white supremacy.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  21. The Africans will tell me about the corrupt leadership and nepotism and other shady dealings that keep their countries from being more successful.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  22. It's absolutely supposed to be that way for every child. Childen deserve to be provided for and protected until they become adults. In my optimism, I believe the normalcy that allows children to survive and thrive will return in a few years.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  23. Agreed. POTUS OJ is an anomaly. Kinda like a Black POTUS. I don't think America will elect another ๐Ÿคก to be POTUS. The next few will be *normal*.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  24. Over several administrations they haven't solved the problems. Usually those areas are well protected. Right. The majority of victims in these cities are Black and Brown folks. White folks are not the majority of folks being murdered in any of these cities. But, the white folks are supposedly concerned and scared to be tourists in these places . They are high and mighty and have answers about what needs to be done to clean up. The whire folks who live in these cities aren't hanging out in the areas where folks are being killed. Exactly. Putting a bullseye on the ineffectiveness of Democrats in handling these *problems*. POTUS OJ is trying to make good on his campaign promises one of which is getting non-white people back in line.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  25. https://www.npr.org/2025/09/03/nx-s1-5527093/florida-working-to-end-vaccine-mandates Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo appears to be in lockstep with the current administration. Florida was one of or the 1st states to end lockdowns during the pandemic. The virus didn't wipe out the state. Ending vaccine mandates for schoolchildren will be interesting. Mainly because childen spread diseases very quickly. Florida could very well become the home of both retirees and anti-vaxxers. Let's see how many states follow their lead in ending vaccine mandates.๐Ÿ˜Ž
