  1. For anyone who didn't know, Lupita Nyongo has no problem with the woman king or the movie from natalie portman that she dropped out of. She just wants medium to smaller film projects to be a part of,independent films saying different things. That makes sense, she didn't want to be part of the Legend of the Dorie Malaj aka The Woman King. MEaning what? Lupita knows this movie is made cause of the very popular dorie malaj of black panther. Viola Davis didn't produce this movie all by herself. And like Natalie portman's movie, whatever it is, it is probably a similar theme thing, like maybe a female superhero story. https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2120&type=status @Troy to answer your question. The Woman King will win academy awards. The fight choreography/viola davis lead female/maybe the film of the year itself, but the year is long. Everything everywhere all at once has a shot at film of the year too. Brad pitt's train film and maverick have chances too. To black people looking for wakanda in real life, I think you miss the larger question. How many black people in the usa like it? It seems in my mind an obvious question to ask , and one that is historically providing mostly a negative answer from black folk. I realize many black people have come to terms with the usa or more positively , but I find said black people have a hard time comprehending many black people are not happy in the usa and , because all the historical railroads out of the usa were never as comprehensive or as fruitful as they needed to be, black people in the usa have many members who are looking for a land to escape the usa the way the white religious outcast or fiscal poor fantasized about the usa to escape abuse in the united kingdom. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, for black people in the usa, all of earth has been occupied:) so, no lands to easily take from another human people's who are biologically untouched by a virus we carry or ignorant to weapons we may wield.

    Celebrity DJ’s Wife Faked Orgasms for 10 Years of Marriage because of ‘Not Knowing Her Own Body’

    (Photo by Paras Griffin/Getty Images for BET)
    Popular daily radio and vlog show, The Breakfast Club co-host DJ Envy and his wife Gia Casey have been in the news lately, and not for their job. Gia has admitted she had faked orgasms for 10 years of her marriage. It was something she said she did repeatedly and consistently. The couple sat down with The Shade Room to have an intimate chat and discuss their new book Real Life, Real Love: Life Lessons on Joy, Pain & the Magic That Holds Us Together.

    Casey started the conversation about her struggle to reach a climax with her husband because it is a part of the book, which is available now. The radio personality, as Casey shared, was her first and only because they met in high school.

    “Most young girls and even many, many, many women, I’m sure so many women can relate, don’t know how to achieve an orgasm,” she said. “A lot of women have no idea what it feels like to have an orgasm through sexual intercourse.”

    “We would be intimate and he would be putting his best foot forward…he lives to make me happy. So I would see him trying and really going to work,” she continued. “You want to reward that man for that work and the only reward that you have to offer is an orgasm. But even if I didn’t feel it, I would still be performative.”

    In retrospect, Casey says she realized he couldn’t help her reach orgasm because she didn’t know what she needed to get there.

    “He was doing everything a man could do to please a woman. The problem was, I didn’t know my own body,” she admitted.

    This is more of a common problem for women than you think.

    According to the published Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy, a whopping 81.6% of women don’t orgasm from intercourse alone (without additional clit stimulation). And nearly 15% of women have never orgasmed ever!
    Not reaching an orgasm makes a great number of women feel inadequate, as if her sexual equipment is broken, leading her down a path of exploration to seek and find the BIG O.  After trying many positions, reading self-help books and buying dozens of toys, some women remain unaware of exactly what an orgasm is and why it is so difficult to reach one.  So the question is, why is it so difficult for women to reach orgasm when men seem to be able to reach sexual bliss so easily?

    The answer actually consists of a few parts:

    1. Women need more than entry to orgasm.
    Inserting part A into slot B is the typical sexual situation that the average couple believes will enable both partners to reach a climax, but in actuality women need more than vaginal penetration in order to reach an orgasm.  About 70% of women need clitoral stimulation along with penetrative sex in order to reach an orgasm.  The clitoris is made up of 8000 nerve endings making it the most sensitive body part on a woman, so it needs love and attention as does the rest of the body during sex!

    During penetration, the clitoris is stimulated from the inside because of its legs that extend deep into the vagina, but for most women that internal stimulation isn’t enough.  DIRECT contact is where it’s at!  Sex positions that position the pelvises close together, oral sex during foreplay or using a clitoral vibrator during sex are great ways to ensure clitorial stimulation is achieved during intercourse.

    2. Women’s sexual energy starts in the brain.
    Sexual energy is a vital source of energy that gives life to every living being on the Earth.  When it comes to men and women, sexual energy originates in different parts of the body.  In men, sexual energy originates in the pelvis, which explains why men are ready for sex in 20 seconds as opposed to the 10 minutes it typically takes a woman’s body to be ready for intercourse.  Women’s sexual energy originates in the head, so in order for the genitals to be in a state of welcoming and wanting, the energy has to travel down the spine into the pelvis, and that is some distance to travel!
    This fact is one that many women are unaware of, and furthermore, many women have no idea how to move the energy from the brain into the pelvis.  Through meditation, concentrated breathing and focusing the mind on the pelvis, sexual energy can move from the brain into the genitals where it belongs during sex.  This technique has to be learned and it takes some time to master, but once a woman knows how to transfer that energy where it needs to be, orgasm during sex can be achieved with ease every time.

    3. Women live in their heads
    “What should I make for dinner tomorrow?” “I wonder what the kids are doing right now.” “OMG! I s he looking at my stretch marks?” “Ew, his breath smells like Doritos!”  These thoughts and more are things that can roll through the minds of women during sex.  Women tend to live in their heads and think about everything but sex during sexual experiences, which causes disconnect between the brain (where sexual energy originates for women) and the genitals that need to connect with the sexual energy.  When the mind is everywhere else besides the moment of sexual pleasure, the body will not respond to the typical triggers that should send it into an orgasmic frenzy.
    In order to bring the body closer to a climax, the mind needs to be cleared and freed of anything that isn’t sex within that moment. Meditation, a pre-performance massage, stretching or even a hot bath or shower are all great ways to mellow out before the fun begins.  Leave all of the thoughts about work, children and body issues at the door.  Leave the mind open to register touch, smells, sounds and every other sensation associated with the sexual rendezvous taking place in the moment. Live in the moment!

    Every woman has the parts necessary to orgasm and can learn how to achieve the greatest climax of her life; it just takes dedicated and focused intention and a little practice to get there.

    MY THOUGHTS

    I said the following a trillion times and I will say it a trillion and one, If you define virginity by first orgasm, most women are virgins into their 30s. ... I want to state other, most women in the usa are virgins based on the stated elemental into their 30s but outside the usa into their late 40s.

    What is telling? Somehow this isn't common knowledge.

     

    When a woman orgasm what happens?  The vaginal walls pulse rapidly. This is to coax the penis to ejaculate. Saying the vagina will aid in pushing the sperm to the egg. 

     

    Why are vaginas tight? Lack of use. Girls, meaning any female who never was head of household, have no experience fornicating, thus tightness. Usually , women , meaning any female who lived or lives as head of household, has tightness if she has not fornicated in a long time, side another or with a tool.  Tightness of vagina has nothing to do with vixen qualities. Think of the vagina like your leg. Have you ever sat down to o long and your leg started to cramp. Well that is something like a vagina unused for months. If someone told you to start running as fast as you can after sitting down without moving for hours it will hurt right? that is what happens when a vagina has a penis rummaging in it. The better thing for your leg is a massage to prepare to run. The vagina needs the same patient care when unused.

     

    In the article the woman in question states a simple truth. No matter how much a man is gentle or caring, a woman may not orgasm. It isn't about being loved it is about knowing oneself. This knowing requires experimentation with one self.An eventually side the partner. Being great in bed as a couple demands the two learn what will make them great in bed. It can not be assumed or forced. 

     

    In terms of pleasure, everyone is unique in what gives them pleasure and how two people find pleasure is also unique, but in either case it takes time, trial and error to know.

     

  3. @ProfD yes, I am not suggesting you are blowing smoke or making fires. I said dangerous as in the danger of misinterpretation. which happens to everyone online, no matter what anyone say. I just feel Lupita's point is ...nothing is inherently wrong with whatever anyone chooses to do, that everyone wants to make a proud body of work or be successful.
  4. @Chevdoveexactly, the role wasn't right for where she wants her career to go, she wants to do smaller films, independent films. And she is right, as I know, from personal experience, the entertainment world has become very hard for new things. The entertainment world makes it very hard for writers/artists/musicians who are not doing the big budget work. I respect lupita for wanting to be part of those projects. and offering the chance for unknowns to get high profile opportunities next to viola davis or natalie portman. @ProfDyour word choice is dangerous. Lupita wasn't suggesting what she is doing is better or worse than anybody else, she said she is using the ability to choose what she wants to do. She didn't suggest it will yield betterment, she wants it to but she didn't say her choices must. and to any, can we get an apology for Viola Davis... people used the false claim that lupita nyongo had some negative personal issue to viola davis connecting to some inherent black on black crime in the woman king, all false, all lies, and spread so much ahhh
  5. Lupita Nyongo also said no to Natalie Portman so Nyongo wants to guide her career a certain way. No black on black hate.

    Lupita Nyong'o On Why She Decided Not To Star In 'The Woman King'
    Bre Williams
    October 19, 2022

    Lupita Nyong’o is talking about why she decided to not star in The Woman King.

    The actress was set to star alongside Davis in the upcoming historical film The Woman King. But back in 2020, the actress walked away from the film in which she was to play an Agojie warrior.

    In a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Nyong’o opened up about why she decided against starring in Gina Prince-Bythewood’s film.

    Nyong'o didn't feel like the role was right for her.
    According to IndieWire, Nyong’o was set to play an Agojie warrior in The Woman King starring Viola Davis, who also produces. The Agojie tribe inspired the fictional Dora Milaje female army in Black Panther.

    After she was cast in the film, the actress made a short documentary about the Agojie tribe called “Warrior Women With Lupita Nyong’o.”
    Per The Hollywood Reporter, the Academy Award winner “grapples uncomfortably with the tribe’s legacy of violence.” After the documentary, Nyong’o decision to exit The Woman King though she hasn’t specifically revealed why.

    “It was very amicable, the departure from it,” Nyong’o said. “But I felt it wasn’t the role for me to play.”

    Thuso Mbedu took over the role Nyong’o was slated to play.
    After her departure, Lupita Nyong’o’s role was given to Thuso Mbedu.

    In addition to The Woman King, Nyong’o also exited the upcoming Apple TV+ series Lady in the Lake, which stars Natalie Portman. Moses Ingram replaced her in that series.

    “I’m desperate for small projects,” Nyong’o told THR. “They’re harder to get off the ground, they’re harder to stay on track. Bigger movies elbow them out of the way. The pandemic and the fiscal stress on the industry has made it even harder for those movies to get made.”

    Nyong'o is currently balancing large projects with smaller independent roles.
    “I think to be culturally prosperous, to be artistically prosperous as a people, is to have options. I personally love a good Marvel movie, but it doesn’t take me away from really wanting the little character-driven film,” the Us actress shared. “I believe in the fight for those things to be kept alive because the one thing we always want, the ultimate privilege, is choice.”

    She concluded, “It becomes a philosophical question about what is art and what is its purpose. I believe that art plays a role in moving the people that experience it, and a lot of people are moved by Marvel. Is you being moved by this thing less important than me being moved by Picasso?”

  9. @Chevdove yes, I saw this story in the local paper with details. I have been busy creating so I didn't share it, but I knew. The entire story exposes the reality of public officials . in a city like los angeles that is publicly deemed a place of multicultural unity, it shows the truth, absent the camera and the internet media, all the peoples in the usa can't stand each other, shame people in the usa are too cowardly to admit it

    Beloved (1998) reviewed by Movies That Move We
     

    Video Link

    MY THOUGHTS WHILE I VIEWED

    3:44 ahh it came out a bad week. Ants/Rush Hour/Bride of Chucky/Practical Magic all were hits. Ants is animated. Rush Hour is funny and with jackie chan a global hit and rush hour was his finest usa based film. Chucky for the horror addicts, chucky is a superstar. PRactical magic had nicole kidman and sandra bullock in a women's empowerment film about new england witches... beloved

    12:35 good point, I want to add, the multitude of stories is the problem. I argue the problem is, the truth is complex right. Some people were violent, some suffered, some had good fortune. it is a blend of stories. Blend of stories make the end of the civil war /13th amendment/end of slavery complicated

    15:16 yes, this is a poltergeist. But i concur, the message is, what is more frightening is the human activity, the enslavement of  whites onto blacks. 
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Garner
    I think it is an important story change from morrison that is carried in the film is that the real life garner was mulatto. she had a white parent. and all her children were from her owner.
    I find it also interesting that most of the people they fled, with, the historical garner made it to canada. they didn't stay in the usa but most made it. supposedly seventeen in total with nine making it to canada. And i find it historically compelling that the Garner's  owner/former owner/owner in moving the garner's  around kentucky to escape  an extradition order for murder from ohio  which was going to lead to a pardon, he had to leave kentucky and on a boat to take the garner's to new orleans the baby child was thrown into the water by margaret and died. And then in the end, margaret lived, telling her husband never to marry and bring forth life into the world of slavery. I argue, margaret never let her black enslaved husband bed her or at least bed her in good time for pregnancy. I think margaret hated the idea of being pregnant. Only know have I did any research concerning the true story, thank you Nike,  I have more thoughts for a story I am composing myself now. 

    20:30 great point, i agree, from the beginning I saw this film as the poltergeist while present, while dangerous is not as dangerous as the white slave owners, not really. The poltergeist is easier to handle and is handled easier than white folks.

    21:53 yes, we don't talk about the truth in the black community. because black parents can not guarantee black chidren will react positively to whites or the usa with knowing it. I have always felt most black parents in the usa, are frightened of the truth because all black parents know, 100% of black children will not reach positive conclusions to whites or the usa with the truth. And I think black parents in majority just don't want that risk so they lie. 

    22:44 how can the movie be better in your view Nike?

    24:09 I can tell you I know black people were not dancing about based on knowing about my mother's father's mother's life. I do not go into my personal.

    24:38 yes, trauma 

    25:02 i think the black community in the usa made an effort to kill the life of that past in the black community in the usa, even while white people keep it alive with their actions. and i think, those black people succeeded in killing it. The modern black community in the usa, to be blunt, does not reflect a community that used its most historically relevant or elemental era in the usa, that being when enslaved to whites, as a root element of a heritage to empowerment. The Black community in the usa , is a community that reflect a discarding of its most historically relevant or elemental era in the usa. Which has been beneficial. The USA today would not be the country it is if the Black community or the Indigenous community didn't at some point do what both did and that was, start at day one when at day 99.  Black people talk about fighting in world war II and owning homes in the antebellum south. Enslavement was Black folk in the usa  300 year old epoch in the usa, that predated the usa itself.  Our forebears who wanted that reboot, got what they wanted. at the price of it was the gullah language or culture like other unique cultures in the black community in the usa that predate the end of slavery, high john the conqueror and a horde of fiction fantasy that black people had created during slavery/the black free towns no one recalls today. Black people like henry louis gates jr and others like to emphasize the time after slavery cause , like frederick douglass, they want the black community in the usa to be statian, of the usa. The problem with black enslavement to whites being alive is the question of the usa itself. it has to live as well and when you question the country you live in, again the resulting answer may not be positive or convenient or majority. And I think many black people in the past have always feared and some today still fear that possibility in the black community in the usa.  thus why said black people adore modern black immigrants who have more in common with whites when it comes to their initial relationship to the usa than DOSers. 

    QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
    What did you think of this film the first time you saw it? 
    I didn't like the whites, which says little to nothing. but, I enjoyed the end. Maybe cause I was raised in a home with two loving parents. I enjoyed the resolution at the end, between d and sethe.

    Did you know at the time, about Margaret Garner? 
    No, I did not. I never thought to research this until now. I think the true story is very compelling, about many issues of mulattoes, of black children in the usa,of the end of slavery or as I like to call one of the mutations of slavery. cause the truth is, slavery simply changed, it did not die. But I always remind people, new orleans was the las vegas of the usa in the 1800s and all the top female prostitutes of new orleans claimed black ancestry. why? white men had created a media myth, like modern day Black women behinds or white women breast. that mulatto women was the sexual best. And I even see the lustful logic. You have a white woman/a light black woman/a luscious black woman all in one white man's house. he is married to one, the white one. her role is to make heirs, she owns nothing. he uses one for general labor and mating for more produce<meaning aside black men>, the luscious black woman. but who is the best of both worlds. it is the light black woman, the mulatto. She is publicly owned by the white man. he has no worry of legal problems with anything he does to her, like the luscious black woman but she may in appearance look no different or more similar to a white woman. So, it is to a white man in a position of total power, the best of both worlds. Most mulattoes look like a thandie newton or halle berry where it is clear, they are a mix, but some look like Christina Cox <she was in chronicles of riddick> or rebecca hall <the director of passing>who in my view can attempt to pass in the old environment in the usa way better than ruth negga or tessa thompson. And I use myself as the proof. I never doubted ruth negga or tessa thompson or halle berry have black ancestry but christina cox or rebecca hall i did not know. and this is powerful. Remember twelve years a slave. paul giamatti's character pointed to the mulatto daughter of the luscious black woman, whose tears and constant crying in light of margaret garner is well balanced, and said, i paraphrase, that little girl is worth all of the rest.. to cumberbatch. In latin america, they are called Alvino's meaning. this is someone with known black ancestry but who does not look black. That is priceless to a white man with money back in slave times.
    Thanks again Nike, In cheap retrospect, I Would had went another way than Morrison story wise, plot wise. But morrison being a woman, i think she wanted to redeem the black mother more than anything. I think beloved, as a poltergeist, was betrayed a little bit. I daresay, beloved is more a wraith than a poltergeist. A poltergiest for me acts wildly as a spirit but doesn't necessarily have agenda. a wraith has agenda. the woman in black is a wraith. I think beloved is a wraith. She wants her mother to give take her own life through a slow pain of neglect. that is purpose. Beloved goes away as a poltergiest not a wraith. 

    Did you feel differently about the meaning of the film between your first watch and the last time you viewed the movie?
    Meaning, no , the meaning didn't change. I only add the comparison to the real event know. I remember relatives not liking that she didn't kill herself. The funny thing in the historical record it seems she was literally stopped by the whites coming to take her back to slavery. but I like how in the historical record she tried to kill herself with the youngest, but simply failed. 

     Do you think of this as a horror movie? 
    Yes, but I want to say, this film is a visual representation of what I will call Black Statian Slave Ghost Stories. Growing up as a kid, I was told and then later read many of these kinds of stories, usually shorter in length but the same idea. Being enslaved while dealing with a negative spirit is uncommon theme or shall i say a specific theme to the Black DOS community in the USA. this isn't for willing immigrants or whites or native americans mostly, this is a very specific genre culturally. You have a character dealing with a scenario where they are born disempowered with problems stemming from a past before they were born they can not control while now a negative spirit. I think in these stories the problem is, the horror of the ghost is less important than the horror between humans and that goes against the horror movie genre as a whole in the usa. yes, the ghost is bothering me, but I had my foot cut off and my testicles branded last month. I can't afford any more from this white man so spirit, pick a number. 

    yeah, good one:)

    MY COMMENT

    Dune was a serial in a magazine, turned into a book. but star wars was based on John Carter of Mars over Dune. The multiversity of characters in star wars reflects John carter more than Dune.

  15. many black artists drawing black people exist in deviantart. @Pioneer1 if you want me to link a few to you i will.
  16. @Pioneer1 I argue , all of the Black people you say are working , need to stop feeling bitter or used or abused by Black people they feel are not working and focus more on communicating with each other and doing more in their smaller group. I give the example below to troy. @Troy White jews are white but they work well in themselves. The key is not that white jews act or desire individualism. Individualism has fatal flaws for any individual. But, they comprehend that a subgroup can be effective in a group. White jews work for their group in the white community. And they are disliked by other white groups, even today as the news clearly shows. Yes, some people, not necessarily most, in the usa are trying to make a culture of individuals who are unbound by communal chains absent the one communal chain no human can eliminate and that is humanity itself. But some people, not necessarily most, in the usa want the usa to remain a place where one group is above all others. Who will win that war? I do not know. @ProfD As I stated in this very website. In NYC, white jews have private schools that have completely neglected white jewish children and yet, when outed by media for this educational failing. which many black people in this community deemed the sin of sins. All the members of the system defend the white jewish community. What is the point? the point isn't about power or money or education but truth...It is the black community in the usa's unwillingness to accept the truth. We are a people in the usa who come from those who never wanted to be in the usa. We as a group or individually have no obligation to support any position in the usa or the usa itself. We can but we are not obliged. And in that freedom we have always had varying groups in the usa that can not work together functionally cause what they want is counterpose. But while we don't have the power or money, we can be honest. It does not take power or money or education to be truthful to oneself. To many black individuals or groups in the usa spent and spend too much time telling other black individuals or groups how they need to be like them, or telling them all is right if not for this or all is wrong if not for that. Find black people you are similar too and make what you are working on together better. Here is the article https://aalbc.com/tc/profile/6477-richardmurray/?status=2064&type=status To any who read this I always ask black people online or offline to join this website. But I never call them names if they don't. They are not ignorant if they don't. They are not lazy if they don't. They are not uneducated. They have the right to not believe in something. Second only to the NAtive American, Black people in the USA should know better any other that results are a better proof than any speech or regaling. And if I want better results in this website then I have to work to make it better, regardless of Troy who owns the website or any other member in it. And in making the website better, people will come. I can fail or nothing can change, but that isn't the people's fault. The key is to keep improving what the group you are a part of in the village is trying to do, and the village will be best when all groups thrive, which will happen one day.
  17. hhaha nothing:) @Pioneer1 I only did it cause others shared to me, to be blunt, my offline connections all shared various posts to me, that is how that titty tuesday search thing started:) but since you asked, I will share an entry from my black models/photographers series https://richardmurrayhumblr.tumblr.com/post/695510103117496320/model-ms-erin-mist-photographer-bymrjp-jp
  18. @Chevdove what i forgot to think about to the purposes is the negative internet industrial complex. Meaning, the reality is, negativity makes money. it is the simple truth. Rush limbaugh i never cared for but he did comprehend a simple truth in modern media. Which I can prove through reactions to various posts in various places online. positive post never get the reaction negative posts do, it is the simple truth. People can argue the computers heuristics are weighted towards the negative but I am not certain. If I make a blog: Women Are Bitches #youknowWAB many people connected to me will probably disconnect but the reality is, regardless of what I truly think, if I keep up that messaging, men will reply, your right rich and women will reply, f- u Rich! and thus the storm is made between two mobs that can only grow as long as I maintain the theme and don't betray it. Those are the rules to the NIIC , 1)never betray the negativity - look at limbaugh or schrumpft, never do they give up on it. And that includes sensationalism. if on my blog women are bitches, if i say , on the hundredth day anniversary I will expose the three biggest bitches in the world. whomever I name doens't matter, the sensationalism matters. if someone asks me, what about my mother. i have to call my mother a foul name. why? because that is staying loyal to the negativity. 2)do it as much as you can, daily, hourly, secondly, look at Schrumpft on twitter. I never followed him on twitter but I knew people offline who did, or was acquaintance to people online who did but the thing is, both sets of people said they hated/disliked him. but the question then is, why follow? And the answer is simple. they love to argue, to be part of a mob.and they know that like the reformation the counter reformation is always right behind so people like schrumpf or others who peddle in negativity, always create two groups, that are very vocal online.The group that supports them and the group that opposes them. And this connects to the woman king. Negativity concerning the woman king film is attracting users online likes bees to pollen. And I even argue that viola davis may have aided and abetted this, by replying the way she did. In the same way I think jk rowling did with her continued replies with the lgbtq+ community. I do think people like to play the opposite of limbaugh's and schrumpfts and not start the mob but give it breadcrumbs. People will analyze every posts viola davis makes and dissect it concerning the woman king. The fact that viola davis is in Black Adam while Lupita Nyongo is in Black Panther and both were supposed to be in The Woman King and Lupita Nyongo or Viola Davis are small time media manipulators ... it leads to a complex web. And the general audience is the sucker falling for all these traps.

    Thoughts as I read after the ellipsis. Anything I suggest is just that, a suggestion. And you say, Fuck off if you read my thoughts. I totally agree:) I enjoyed the chapter, thanks for sharing. 


    ....
    Look at Luke Cage's language, so modern. "It's cool cap" good

    Good question by Jake the reporter, he would ask that. I don't know about the timing. 
    The sentence before. I don't know if you need it. I know you want to display the length of eating time. maybe a different tact. Something like, everybody ate until the gumbo was done. Since Cage mentioned it was hot twice, the manners of the federation folk will settle into that. Maybe you can say, Jake noticed Cage was sitting back , whiping his mouth , satisfied with the gumbo and Jake couldn't resist the question burning in his mind for his readers about the stars.

    Why did you have Cage say "WOW" after Jake's question? you don't have to tell me anything. You can say fuck off. but, I wonder. Cause would Cage be wow-ed by such a question? In my mind, at this point, I am not certain.

    I don't think Cage would say "It's ok cap, it's a good question". I think he would be more simpler in phrase.  Just "It's ok cap"

    Question: Who said "I get it" after Cage explained to Jake how he dealt with the past. In my head I think it is sisqo but you don't state who. No problem, just change it.

    Like how you used Cage to reemphasize the father son of jake sisqo and benjamin sisqo.

    I like the modulation to the next phase. but instead of the word "soon", perhaps, The bedtime arrived. The word soon gives off the impression of speed, but you started with the evening went on, which gives off slowness.

    Kasidy and Benjamin is excellent. 

    Holodeck time!! RETRACTION NO I made a mistake as a reader. I assumed it had to be the holodeck, when you said three weeks time. Shame on me. Well done. 

    Nice intro to it. RETRACTION Still nice intro and Earth in deep space nine time has that wierd in the past feel to it. Like picards farm, it is odd to modernity. People have all this technology but live in a very comfortable way. They don't aspire to live beyond how they want to live. oh star trek.

    I can hear Brock Peters lovely voice:) Note. This is when I realized this wasn't the holodeck, but that was my mistake, not yours.

    haha! wise decision.. yes:)

    I think Jake would say "We all get it" Benjamin/Joseph comprehend too. Jake would emit that collective comprehension I think

    ohh, the ending, you, well done:) 

    The chapter goal was for Luke Cage to feel at home to feel he has loving ones, family, in this time. Goal achieved. 

    Well done.

    Did the error from am*zon start when they were not willing to simply spend money on a fantasy world not made before in film or television? I think a greater lesson to all firms exist. Stop trying to use fictional words that have a ready made fanbase. yes, if you get it correct, the growth can be fast and revenue return can be excellent throughout. But, the potential pitfalls are mighty.

     

    One, you have handicapped the directors/thespians/set designers side others in the project with the weight of prior interpretations of the fictional world. The woman playing galadriel in rings of power has to deal with being what the fanbase expects to be kate blanchett's galadriel younger.  The director didn't have the same detail with costume or sets but fans are expecting the scale model lands and crafted armor and pieces that peter jackson set up for lord of the rings. The highest quality the fans are used to in the past becomes the standard in the present. That is a handicap. Since am*zon couldn't get the complete rights they also add another handicap in their limitation to using certain elements of the story. 

    Using an unused fantasy world deletes all the handicaps I mentioned.

     

    AMENDMENT: I Argue now, the Tolkien estate , saw this calamity happening and took the money knowing am*zon would fail like this.

     

    Two. fantasy worlds tend to be expensive. The average film is financially a loser, historically. Thus, any venture into a fantasy world will usually be a loser financially. By using a world already represented, the ability to recover from a failed season is harder. Cause the non fans are not along and the fans have left and the weight of the prior interpretations is still on the production.

     

    AMENDMENT: I wonder the accounting assessments to these shows. I want to know how the accountants make the worst case scenario for these better than the worst case for an unvisualized fantasy world?

In the film US, the tether abigail answers the question to individual reply by exchanging places. but the originally untethered abigail, replied to her individual revenge with a collective reply, leading all the tethers. and oddly enough, in the end, both abigails got what they wanted, in the end, the collective reply of the originally untethered abigal with hands across america happened with her side her household all killed while the tethered got her replacement life with only her male son, the "mulatto" knowing the truth about her. and her whole household lives. The power of nature here is underrated. I even argue an element of "The man who fell to earth" is used very well in this film's premise. In a man who fell to earth, the government keeps the "alien" man in a base but over time the base is forgotten. How isn't fully explained but whatever happened, the people in government who knew about this or kept it organized died or forgot or moved on, so the installation ran on autopilot, and became decrepit. like the tether's world, its sitting there. Whomever in government was supposed to manage them, stopped or moved on or died or something, where they still get electricity, but their existence is uncared for. And I like that theme of whatever the government was planning couldn't survive nature. But to your first question, to whether people have more or less, whether we want freedom or revenge, we can respond as part of a group or individually. But nature does have influence over things, At the end the tricked abigail was still naive when she was originally tricked and the tethered abigal is still dangerous when she originally forced a switch. Their varying sense of individualism or community didn't change. The tricked abigal, felt the tethered abigail in the first place, she was always communal. the tethered abigail was always an individual, never once interested in helping another tethered escape. So no matter how you respond to another, you will always be yourself eventually.

    Well, I will answer, what will I do if I come into contact with one of my infinite other sides? There is a version of me that is more positive than me. and thus, I am the more negative to that version. to answer the question. I don't know. Good question. the engineer in me wants to ask, how did we even meet in the first place. Nature has rules. how are we meeting is my first question, not necessarily how we will get along. But I will say this. The key to coexisting side another interpretation of you, is to be anti christian. I will explain. If you look at zoarasters-ancient kemet-aztec mythology-taoism, most spiritual belief systems accept that nature is not good or bad but all things. But the christian belief system is starkly variant. the christian tradition says god is good, thus that which is not good is not of the essence of life. If you see a version of you doing negative things that you wouldn't do, if you have in your mind the idea that to do negative things is against nature, then you will imply that the other you is unnatural and thus communication problems, coexistence problems.

  22. haha @Pioneer1 I didn't even think of that. I need more acquaintances to keep me on point to such things:) @Pioneer1 did you enjoy his craft videos?
  23. @Chevdove @Troy After reading your latest comments I realize the problem in this situation isn't this film or viola davis or lupita nyongo or the dahomey female warriors or this film. It is the modern black community in the USA. Why I say that? The Global black community outside the usa loves this film. This film isn't a documentary. It is fantasy. And as I said before, this is a pan black production. black people from Africa side Black DOSers are together in this film. Black female empowerment. Now most black people in the USA love this film or at the least have no problem. But what about the black people who do? What is their real problem? Is the problem that Lupita Nyongo left a film? IS the problem that in a fantasy action film, not a documentary, the tone of the film is upbeat? I think some black people have issues with other Black people and this film's production shows a unity of Black people that some black people don't want. Now, before you shooeh my position. I go back to Frederick Douglass. I go back to MLKjs side Malcolm. The black populace through leaders, ala FRederick Douglass, or black people around activitists, ala some black people around Malcolm side MLK , simply dislike certain activities of Black people and look to criminalize them. FRederick Douglass to me, publicly criminalized , Black ways that didn't suit what he felt should be all black people's position. And for him, Black people in the USA should do nothing that segregate/separate from the usa in anyway. and this film, financed by a DOSer in Africa is a form of segregation/separation from the USA. And at the end of the day, the Southern Black LEadership Conference of the NAtion of Islam were more about the supremacy of their religious group than the betterment of black people regardless of religion. my point, the black community in the usa will always have individuals or groups that want black betterment as long as it parallels their views. And if it doesn't they critique. Look at Clarence THomas. Clarence Thomas does support black people, who fit his philosophy. He knocks who does not. The black community in the usa does not have the ability to disallow or mute black individuals or groups who are willing to work against black people trying to improve the village in ways they don't concur to.

Where carbon based lifeforms, like humans, deteriorate. Carbon based lifeforms give off carbon dioxide. Can you tell what is going on? https://www.deviantart.com/hddeviant/art/Promptpot2022Day16-933290543
