@Troy Ah it's an interesting chart because Saturn is conjunct your natal Sun within a few degrees.

There's another element. Domination. Male slaves dominated female slaves. Victims seem to continue the pattern if victimisation. Not always but it happens.

TV and the internet have a low signal to noise ratio. Which requires sorting wheat and chaff. Hanging out got me a cheap apartment in Manhattan, an invite to a Movie premiere and places to stay overseas, interesting stories and people. Although I did win a thousand on TV in the 80's.

I read books. And i used to read the New York Press free weekly. Which is how i found a few writers. Like David Foster Wallace and Amanda Filipaci. Which lead to anthology. So if i like the writer I read their entire canon : David Foster Wallace, Jonathan Franzen, Kurt Vonnegut, Ishmael Reed , Roger Zelaney. Then there are subjects that pique my interest : Mathematicians, Jungian psychology, astrology, tarot numerology, social dynamics. , erotica. , sci fi and Mythology. And Biographies/Autobiographies Miles Davis , Prince, Isaac Newton. , Albert Einstein. There's one writer i found from TV. Jamake Highwater. He was an American Indian writer that wrote about American Indian mysticism in the 90s. I found out that he was a fraud. He was a Jewish and he got lots if grants ti lecture about indian affairs. Now its more dinner guest once or twice a month. Facebook and Aalbc. There have been shows i have checked out. Mostly HBO and Show time. However after a few episodes it seems too predictable.

Since 1997 i had a TV for about 2 years. I don't consume much media.

Either ot changes by 2024 or it's a wrap.

What do you think post eclipse.

Pioneer sometimes you sound like an overseer with an inferiority and superiority racial compex. Het but maybe 1000 people will view it. So maybe you're a leader.

Troy I don't consume that much mass media. So how is it effecting me.

Because not all lives matter. The group is evidence of this. How often do we talk about breathing being important. Rarely unless you're a smoking swimming singer.

@Mel Hopkins Our society is sexually predatory. We have prepubescent girls modeling. How many fairy tales have a girl as a prize. Child prostitution is Hansel and Gretel. Absentee parents equals children being consumed.

Mel everyone has a personal mythology that both that is both created and creates the pov. Without being aware conversation is possible but communication is difficult. @Mel Hopkins Keeping it Reel

I think about my thinking.

Welcome, Mark.

We differIn simpler terms, existentialism is a philosophy concerned with finding self and the meaning of life through free will, choice, and personal responsibility. The belief is that people are searching to find out who and what they are throughout life as they make choices based on their experiences, beliefs, and outlook.

I tried to make certain that I felt alive. I never felt I knew enough to be WTF. I heard a minister say there are three things on our tombstone. When you're born, a dash, and when you die. You have no control over when you are born or when you die. The only thing you can effect is that little dash in the middle.

My partner and I were wondering how this would play out if the shooter were Black.

Yes those are his supporters. He and the Vice President had a heartfelt tweet.

His gesture is nuanced.

Scarlet A? And the ABC. Mel your use of language is both evocative and provocative.

Cynique Troy can be very opionated and does sometime make pronouncements or edicts. Troy is fighting a Goliath that is almost impenetrable. I understand expending huge amounts and not being compensated properly. I don't feel itbis as all consuming though. Sometimes though Troy i believe your principles blind you and in your honest desire ti improve the world. You make statements that aren't quite square with the facts. I am referring predominantly ti our discussion on Climate Change. Mel you are quite goid with your facts. Although your percentages re Black women seem to large. And whike yiu did concede yhe point re Black women voting. It apoarently has fallen short in Troy's opinion. There's an interesting dynamic among the three of you. Which is easier ti see not being in the conversation. Cynique you see Troy as far more narrow minded then he is. He can be strongly opinionated and sometimes his argument lacks logic or reason. Troy are you missing Pioneer in this argument, cause it seems as though you're channeling him.

Hey Mel Not certain what you mean.

The system isn't broken. Is police shooting the new lynching? Black people were suppose to die. Why do citizens need to fight for civil rights. Because Black Americans are not seen as human. Animal cruelty elicits more concern than police execution sanctioned by the judicial branch and a percentage of citizenry. We have a south African schooling us about race. And he is heart broken. Wow. I think Black Americans can't be seen as humans or even as equals. Racism in America doesn't appear to be a conversation black and white America can have rationally. White people need to talk to each other.

Mel has a point with the standards. Feminist had this issue regarding pornography/erotica. Pat Califia was Lesbian Leather Dyke who wrote a book of intense sexual stories. I remember one was about a Lesbian being dominated sexually. Somrtimes with or without consent. Some feminist went after he and Suzie Sexbright. Saying it was unacceptable. They said feminism us about a woman deciding for Themselves. And there's no feeedom if the matriarchy instead if the patriarchy is deciding. Personally I am uncomfortable in projecting mt standards an opinions on others. Although I am not immune to doing so. Although some of the disagreementay be more personal or filtered through the personality than rational. Perhaps it is more frustration than emotion.

Nique show it like Pinterest Pique Their interest. Laying down the bars Didn't know you could rap. Shorty needs to cut the crap. Mudfoot can't reach the stars.
