If/when people are going to use AI, they should do some similar to any other reference material. Otherwise, it's interesting how humans are so willing to embrace AI. AI is the same technology that will eventually put a whole lot of humans out of business. In so many ways, I'm glad that I won't be alive in a future where people no longer have to 1) think and/or create for themselves and 2) interact with each other. Through an over-reliance on technology, I can envision a future where humans will function like robots.

https://www.newsweek.com/congress-insider-trading-isnt-scandalits-business-model-opinion-2060038 Part of the reason POTUS OJ is being allowed to get away with making his *deals* is because many politicians from both parties are equally crooked. Democrats cannot call out certain foolishness from the current administration because they don't want to pulled on the carpet. For example, Rep. Nancy Pelosi is worth 100s of millions of dollars. That's inconsistent with being a public servant. Both sides, red and blue, enrich themselves at the public's expense. Reminds me of the pimps in the pulpit who profit from the parishioners. Congress has been asked to introduce legislation to eliminate insider trading. Let's see how quickly they push it through.

It's relatively easy for *they* and *them* to make claims without evidence or proof. It's even easier to get a whole lot of people to believe the BS. Religion has been doing a masterful job of it for centuries. Same goes for other conspiracy theories. If a piece of technology has always existed, it would have already been discovered and more importantly, made public. Space flight is still in a child-like state. We can launch satellites and get off the ground traveling to space station but it takes a great deal of effort. It definitely has not reached perfection. It would be awesome to see the elites putting on their flying suits and leaving this planet to hang out on other planets or amomg the stars.

I understand your point. It goes back to what you consider a competent and reputable news source. It depends on the news source and how they rank the importance.

77 million people voted for the clown. That tells me they're with his BS. Right now, that mythical figure seems to be issuing executive orders and threatening tariffs and getting hostages released and making deals with world leaders including dictators. There's still 3 years and 6 months left befoee the next election or a universal intervention beforehand.

The freak-offs weren't raided but folks have known about them for decades. Understood. The timing of these victimized people coming out of the woodwork is suspicious. Just like Cosby, *vicitms* are holding on to their truma for decades before they come forward. Nobody ran to the police station immediately after eating their Jell-O pudding pop or soaked in baby oil to get a fresh rape kit. Although there's no statute of limitations for accusing folks, none of these allegations passes the smell test of legitimacy. There's no evidence beyond hearsay. I still believe these charges coincide with rich Black men p8ssing off wealthy white men. America's dad, Cosby's sh8t didn't go sideways until he made a play to buy NBC and gave a speech telling Black males to pull their pants up. White men didn't want a Black man owning a major network which would have allowed for programming their women and children. White men don't want a Black man upsetting the school to prison pipeline (STPP) either. Diddy sued one of the entities with whom he was doing business. His problems started shortly thereafter. That has been the word on the curb for decades too. Yet, it didn't stop dudes from trying to get on Diddy's program in order to make it in the entertainment industry. True. For a long time now, California has been a playground for people who like to get their freak-off/on every which way possible. The entertainment industry is an open air market for the modern day equivalent of Sodom and Gomorrah. Diddy's trial won't pull the covers back in exposing Hollyweird. That's also why I don't believe they will let him go down. Especially if he starts dropping dimes.

Those men do have any problems attracting and maintaining women. That's the easiest part. Their biggest *problem* is being powerless under the system of racism white supremacy. No amount of money and/or fame places a Black man *above* the system. When the system of racism white supremacy is done with its tools...it breaks them. Until Black men realize they cannot *afford* to get away with the same sh8t white men do....they will keep catching cases. The late Hugh Hefner was known for throwing the most lavish *freak-offs* in California. Never was his mansion or the infamous grotto ever raided.

Copied from another thread... In the latest news, POTUS OJ may be getting as a gift a plane worth $400 million dollars from Qatar. The plane is an American-made Boeing but the conflicts of interest still abound. Follow the *deals* (money) that enrich him, family and friends. This *gift* would be a violation of all type of ethics yet neither fellow politicians nor American citizens seem to be outraged about it.

Agreed. I believe Russia could've annihilated Ukraine a long time ago without using nukes. Wars and conflicts are good for business.

It would be cool to *know* where we are in the present 25k year cycle. Archaeologists have not dug up and/or revealed any advanced technology from the past. No vehicles, TVs, computers or appliances.

Right. Every now and then, war is for a worthy cause...pursuing life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Russia is slapping Ukraine around like a trick who tried to side with another pimp. Russia under Putin doesn't want NATO in his backyard. He's also trying to resurrect ths band (USSR).

That is why I believe the political parties are two sides of the same coin. They have one common objective which is maintaining the system.

Now, I have to ask the question and hopefully it won't raise the lack of intelligence flag. If our ancestors were so advanced in mathematics, medicine, science and philosophy, etc., it begs the questions of when, where and how did many of our people digress into living in compromised shelters on undeveloped land and being exploited by foreigners in Africa. I refuse to believe white folks sprinkled some kind of fairy dust on our people to zap their intelligence as bestowed upon them by the Supreme Being.

The Democratic establishment might support him running for higher office as a result of his willingness to stunt for another group of people. That's exactly why FBA/AfroAmericans aren't paying attention to this type of sh8t. It makes no sense to put on the cape for people who can't stand us anyway.

The media immediately reports *news* that it deems important enough to cover right away. Spain losing power doesn't warrant immediate coverage to the white media. The LA wildfires were covered 24/7 until the last ember was extinguished. Lot of property and money went up in smoke.

It is a kind gesture and recognition for the manufactured holidays. Father's Day being the after-thought holiday. Technically, every human being has a *father*/donor or they would not exist. For one reason or several, every child does not have the benefit of a *daddy* i.e. a man who raises and teaches them. It makes sense for people to celebrate the maternal and paternal figures who had the most impact on their lives even if it's the same person rolled up in one. There are grandparents, other relatives and friends who take on parental responsibilities for children they didn't bear.

Right. Reads like they are killing each other and dying for *nothing*.

In the latest news, POTUS OJ may be getting a plane worth $400 million dollars from Qatar. That would be a violation of all type of ethics yet fellow politicians nor American citizens seem to be outraged about it.

I'm not one to tell another person what to do with their coins but do not bet on Diddy getting stretched out. I believe the trial will end up with a hung jury or acquittal. The whole exercise is intended to knock Diddy down a few pegs because he p8ssed off the *wrong* folks. A man worth almost $500 million dollars has no reason to run a s8x trafficking ring. It doesn't make sense.

Sista @Mel Hopkins, hope you also had a wonderful Mother's Day all things considered.

https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/09/us/new-jersey-mayor-arrested-at-ice-detention-center Newark mayor Ras Baraka got himself arrested while demanding access to a local detention center being used to house illegal immigrants. In this case of n8gglet sh8t, this dude choose to go to jail not for advocating reparations but instead, he chose to carry water for the Democratic party. Those same bootlicks and shills stomping for non-Black folks will be unceremoniously ignored by their political party when the dust settles. Even if these Black mayors like Adams & Baraka aspire to higher office, they still have to prove they can tow the party line.

https://apnews.com/live/sean-diddy-combs-sex-trafficking-trial-5-12-2025 The Diddy trial is happening. A jury has been seated. It will be interesting to see if prosecutors can make a s8x trafficking case stick and put Diddy away for years. I don't believe Diddy will be found guilty. His freaky bizness will be put out in the street though. He might have a harder time picking up dates once he's acquitted.

Like every other manufactured holiday, it's a Hallmark money grab. Plenty other businesses get paid including florists, restaurants, department stores, etc. Nope. Most people recognize their mother throughout the year. That being written, it's cool to set aside a special day to recognize mothers. Let them kick back, relax and be showered with love, gifts and food. That statement does sum up a lot. It could end most conversations too. However, we wouldn't have much left to discuss once that trump card is played....it is what is. The flip side, it ain't what it ain't. @aka Contrarian, looks like you had a happy Mother's Day. I certainly hope so.

It really depends on the news source and/or outlet. There's no shortage of them nowadays. One has to watch several news channels and read multiple publications to get the *real truth*. I h8te when folks tell me about something they heard on the Gram, FB or TikTok as if that sh8t is real news.

@Pioneer1, per the definition cited above, "groups that humans are often divided into..." is the reason many people refer to race as a social construct. Early social scientists assigned race on the following basic skin colors...white, black, red, yellow and brown. Other than Black or white, most folks don't refer to themselves by their skin color i.e. race.
