  1. I have also come to really that people live in their own worlds, and sometimes they are cognizant that there are other worlds.

    I hung with everyone and they were cool with me 'cause I was cool with them. I had one person tell me that I had inspired him and they think about me everyday. I also had two people that I had words with also come back and thank me when I was leaving.

     

    I am dreaming my world into existence, but that is easier because I am Black Pshychic from the Bronx who lives in Oz.

  2. @Mel Hopkins and @Pioneer1 Some wealthy women need to cut you a check and throw some loving your way. And do this in a public way. That's the inference I get from the above statement.

    @Mel Hopkins I believe everyone has a talent. Which is why I could see Trump as President, because he is a savvy marketer. I have read about 15,000 people and I have yet to come across junk. Perhaps you don't see it everywhere, because their diamond is under to much dirt. Your post is about being effective and not wasting time. So you will meet people that are a waste of your time because your focus and intensity is lost on them. Ev

    The anti-protestors did follow your suggestion and descended upon West Virginia to fight back and this just fueled the flames and resulted in death and injury!


    You win some, you lose some......but atleast that crowd of protestors CONFRONTED the racists instead of runnning away as the NAACP advises.

     

    Win some or lose some. Sounds like a game. A women was killed. I happened to watch the footage. He ran people over while they were running away.

  4. I remember once an ex of my partner asked her for money while we were dating. I felt really uncomfortable because it was obvious I was working in an office. While he was underemployed. That same partner also put me up for a few days when I needed it. so I have been in situations where I had more money than my partner and the reverse.

     

    I also had a situation where I was visitng my partner. She went to work and I was unemployed. So I cooked dinner and maintained the house. That seems fair. However if one person is making the money and maintaining the home.  Their partner is useless. I can't comment about the sex and cheerleading issue. I don't know how common or uncommon my experience is since I don't know the statistical breakdown of the nature of people's relationship.

     

    Perhaps women want a man that matches the environment they are in or the one they want to aspire to be a member .

     

    We may be using strength , normal and good in very different ways. And sometimes that prevents us from hearing each other.

    or not. Interesting convo from the sidelines.

  5. Troy can you give me an example of each. Since it uncharacteristic of me to verbally attack someone. I don't seem to have that problem with Mel or Cynique, why do you suppose that is?

    You were attempting to make a point using statistics. And you were making assumptions and using large numbers to make a point. And you were wrong. Perhaps I should care less when a fictional statement is made using statistics, or an illogical pronouncement is made. Truth and logic is important, I have been quiet on this topic because there is too much emotion. Which doesn't facilitate hearing opposing views.

     

    I can assure I won't be aggressively or passively debating. I am going to be more mathematical and approach tangentally.

    Btw congratulations on increasing the size of allowable attachements.

    Hey Pioneer what city do you live. I may have read someone in your town.

    Passing Olive Branches all the way around. Because Mistletoe is deadly.

    SMH and LOL The  "Mansplaining" Mel referred to is  so right! Men either recycle what you say and feed it back to you as if it's  their idea, or they misinterpret what you say  because they hear what they want to hear.   So many times, i have to correct and remind a guy that what he says  is something i already said!  On my job, men would  unconsciously co-opt my ideas.  With Pioneer, he is constantly thanking me for making his argument, an argument he hasn't even articulated and, in fact,  has to have Troy translate what he is trying to say.  Men also  put words into your mouth and respond to something you haven't even said. Also Pioneer obviously thinks that the adjective "strong" only applies to physicality and that the idea of men having strong intellects is something he can't fathom.  To me, not realizing this is  being a linear thinker, rather than a critical one.  

     

    i was struck by Troy saying once that he didn't bother to proof read his posts on this board because he figured we'd get what he was talking about.(he' has since greatly improved. )   Del just assumes you know where he's coming from and rarely puts his comments in context.  But - we are who we are.  I am hyper critical and like to have the last word.  Except with Mel.  She always makes her point.  She is a  personable, castrating woman.  :D

     

    The male and female brains are wired differently. Therein lies the ongoing conflict.  Mars and Venus orbiting each other.  

     

    That s because no amount of exposition is going to reach some people. I used to be very cryptic. Then I tried to explain fully. I worked with a lack woman accountant and our White Male Supervisior, would ignore her and take her ideas as his own. I verified to her that she was not in fact losing her mind. Actually I don't assume that Pioneer knows where I am coming from or we have such a different mental approach. That it is near impossible to explain things. With Troy I get, unless he starts using statistics then it goes to the dogs. I don't think I have been mansplaing, since I find it asier to communicate ideas to you and Mel. Since the conversations are less combative or ego driven.

    @Pioneer1   Not sure what you mean about support a black man or black men?  What does that even mean?   Talk is cheap..and even misguided when talking about going up against a very entrenched system such institutionalized racism ... If the president of the NAACP issues a travel warning for a state he lives in, then I'm going to support him in his observation that this spot ain't safe and  there's nothing he can do to keep me safe should I choose to ignore the warning.  All I got for him is "Thanks for the heads up". At least he gave a warning.  

    Black men couldn't even keep us safe when it came to some of us being brought over by slave ships and enslaved...

    Maybe I missed it, but I don't remember the story of "African men saying leave the African women and take us only"  I don't even think there were "his and her" slave ships.

     I think everyone was chained up together in the belly cargo-hold side by side top to bottom..

    So please with that "our women" don't support us crap.     Now you want black women to run to Missouri with you too?  

    Sarah and n'em  didn't bring black men into this world.

    Black women made that choice.  

    But now it's not enough that black male babies come from our behinds? That we house black babies  in our bodies for 10 months, have them suckle our breast for 24 more months and coddle black male babies at the expense of our black girl babies?  Now we need to continue supporting black grown azz men  in their shenanigans too?  

    Just stop.

    smarter on this form of intelligence.


    Audience:

    Notice he didn't just say smarter.
    Lest anyone get the wrong impression about Pioneer's overall intelligence....he made it clear by saying smarter only on THIS form of intelligence.....lol.

     

    Hmm I hadn't noticed that, I had to o back and see that it wasn't me. Well this one is all you. Pioneer either I have overestimated a college degree over being self taught.I am very impressed Pioneer.

    OK I'm clearly missing something.  Is this the original koan below?

     

    Thoughts do exists just follow the peebles.

     

    I still don't get it.  How do the apples or Principal some in?  Pioneer must be smarter on this form of intelligence.

    Troy it's not a form of intelligence, it's a mathematical reference . You know that stuff that engineers study. Hee hee hee.  Okay just look up the etymology  of pebble.  Then I will explain the rest.

    The key words are pebble apple and weight. Cmon Troy it is almost too easy.

     

    Here's another clue, this book is listed as one of the most influential science and mathematics book ever written.

     That with the other clues should narrow it down

     

    OK, it's one of the books by Isaac Newton.

    When you put the two riddles together it makes it easier.

     

    Exactly Pioneer. Congratulations. Now what does the peeble mean?

    Glad you finally realized that you're not qualified to set yourself up as a role model for me.


    I think you're mistaken.

    Not trying to sound sexist but....
    Lol, why would I even ATTEMPT to be a role model for someone who can only urinate
    (properly) sitting down?
     

    How can there be unity, without respect.Your statements show that you want to replace one type of domination with another.
