Welcome! Please Introduce Yourself.
Delano replied to Mel Hopkins's topic in #readingblack's Strategies
@Mel Hopkins it was probably in my 30's. Troy its a list without the bullet points. There are a few ways I find books. I read about Dorothy Parker because of the Prince track. I read the autobiography of Malcolm X because of the Spike Lee movie. Found a few through The New York Press newspaper. A couple of book clubs. Recommendations from people or celebrities. Anthologies. I would also puvk authors because i felt i should have read them . I was interested in the following topics or genre. Mythology Jungian Psychology Numbers Astrology The Occult. Sone books happened to be in a section when i was looking for something else. A few people gave me books. Sometimes it ess a friend or someone i didn't know well. Lastly by accident. -

Freedom of thought is a choice that you have to make. Most people aren't aware they have that option. In one of my marketing classes I heard the following: Comsumers will often buy the same brand their parents bought. Its clear that Mel and Cynique are writers. Althoug we each have our own worldview , that doesn't make it the world's view. Nor does that mean our view or the world's view is correct.

I like discussing topics and ideas. Since it is the opportunity to learn. Discussing a topic with someone more knowledgeable means learning more. Everyone has a particular style of communicating. Which may be related to their personality or rather their personsa. Why are people posting, what do they expect abd what are they trying to do. Also there is objectivity flexibility experience combative. Cynique you're the top dog. The pecking order if regulars is: Cynique Mel Troy Pioneer. Although Troy can change is position more quickly. And appears less wedded to ideas than anyone else I mentioned. Mel is really informed. There are three groups of people I find very interesting Writers Rappers and Comics. Thank you. The real vs the abstract. Time vs belief. It's one of my favorite quotes. Thank you @Cynique. The real vs the abstract. Time vs belief. It's one of my favorite quotes. Thank you.

We are sentenced by our convictions.

your question is more psychological

I think and i decided not to have emotional reactions to disagreement.

Its publicity which even when it's bad its good.

Astrology. Its not the impeachment which has no teeth. Nor the sex scandals. All Robert Mueller needs to show is payments from the Russian government. His team is so good Trump's lawyers are suggesting that he answer the questions in writing not in person. They are worried he will perjure himself. I could be wrong ... again. We will see.

Mid March Donald Trump is under more pressure re Robert Mueller's investigation.

Like most things i found it looking for something else. So yeah your fight isnt pointless. George Soros agrees with you.

He was shot by a member of a rival gang. the gang at the office . Origin and Etymology of gang Middle English, "going, journey, road, path, privy, group of items forming a set," going back to Old English, "going, walking, journey, course, path, privy," going back to Germanic *ganga- (whence Old Saxon gang "walk, course," Old High German "walk, journey, passage," Old Norse gangr "going, course," Gothic gagg "way"), noun derivative from the base of *gangan- "to go" — more at 1gang NOTE: The meaning "set of articles" apparently first appeared in Middle English, the now predominant meaning "group of persons" in early Modern English (hypothesized instances of this sense in Middle and Old English are dubious). A direct descendant of Old English gang in Modern English would be gong (with the effects of vowel lengthening before the cluster -ŋg- and subsequent rounding of the long vowel in monosyllables), but this survived into Modern English only in the sense "privy"—the now general form gang for other senses was borrowed into standard English from northern dialects and Scots, where rounding never occurred. Use of both the noun and verb gang in its historical senses, denoting motion or passage, is now largely limited to traditional Scots. gang Synonyms Synonyms army, band, brigade, company, crew, outfit, party, platoon, squad, team Related Words battalion, corps, troop; force, host, posse, stable, troupe; administration, department, help, personnel, staff Near Antonyms loner; individualist 3 gang verb Definition of gang transitive verb 1a : to assemble or operate simultaneously as a group b : to arrange in or produce as a gang 2: to attack in a gang Hoodlums ganged him and took his money. intransitive verb : to move or act as a gang Origin and Etymology of gang derivative of 2gang GANG Defined for English Language Learners gang noun Definition of gang for English Language Learners : a group of criminals : a group of young people who do illegal things together and who often fight against other gangs : a group of people who are friends and who do things together GANG Defined for Kids gang noun \ ˈgaŋ \ Definition of gang for Students 1: a group of people working or going about together 2: a group of people acting together to do something illegal a gang of thieves 3: a group of friends I invited the gang over.

I can't imagine what type of promotion makes being eith a man appealing to me. Having women problems. We have the solution. Date men. Date another woman and the toilet seat stays down.
