I recently read that America is number one in the world with 28% of children having no father in the home. It makes me wonder if this has ties to all these identity crises happening (making up pronouns, being sexually confused, etc) with the youth and all the failed relationships of young adults.

How do you think it impacts boys growing up without a father?

NEW YORK CITY (WABC) -- Rapper Fetty Wap was arrested Thursday at Citi Field on federal drug charges.

He will be in federal court in Central Islip to answer to the charges later Friday morning.



A law enforcement source said that FBI agents arrested the rapper, whose real name is William Junior Maxwell II, at Citi Field on the drug charges.

Six members of a drug distribution ring were charged with dealing heroin and fentanyl during the Rolling Loud music festival.

The 30-year-old rapper from Paterson, New Jersey, was allegedly part of the group. Exact charges against the rapper will be unsealed later Friday morning.

Two years ago, Fetty Wap was arrested after allegedly assaulting three employees at a hotel.

He faced three counts of battery.


Local news reports say he hit a parking attendant after getting into an argument. Police originally said Wap hit an employee but later said he "committed a battery" on three.

He was also arrested in November 2017 and charged with DUI after police say he was caught drag racing another car on a New York City highway.

Funny how they leave out the white father who was apart of this atrocity, and they only show her mugshot for this article...

... according to this young lady.

I can't agree with this because hip hop ALONE is good based, and there are so many ways to eat the premise of her argument alive. Just wanted to see what your takes are.

I don't know what it's called but someone might have been having lunch and *BOOM* headshot!

Government is considering payments of $450,000 per person affected by Trump administration’s zero-tolerance policy in 2018​

WASHINGTON—The Biden administration is in talks to offer immigrant families that were separated during the Trump administration around $450,000 a person in compensation, according to people familiar with the matter, as several agencies work to resolve lawsuits filed on behalf of parents and children who say the government subjected them to lasting psychological trauma.


If you're Black and vote Democrats...let me get around the swear filter.

FUCK YOU AND EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU.

Sorry about the outburst, so unprofessional of me.

Sex in public, has anyone here done it or known anyone who has? Honestly, I did date this one woman who tried to get me to do the deed in public, but I just couldn't push myself to do it. We didn't last too long anyway, she was cool, but wasn't right for me. But, I was reminded of her recently when I heard about these couples who got caught having sex in a walmart.

So, have you ever had sex in public? Have you dated anyone who did or wanted to?

I saw a place around here that's offering a smores date experience. You get a reserved spot around a fire pit and a bunch of ingredients to make smores and hot chocolate. I thought it would make for a fun date night, especially on a colder night! Have you been on any unique dates?

Some actor named Micah Beals vandalized the new statue that was recently unveiled in New York. No idea who this guy is, but I guess he's done some shows and other work. Probably just trying to get his name out there somehow by being an utter douchebag.

The show Survivor is known for having groups of people starting alliances. But it seems that a group of black participants in the show have created their own alliance and I guess white people are claiming it's racist. How the hell is that racist?


I'm not making this up either. Who cares if we start a group our own. I imagine they're also the minority in the show, so of course they're going to come together as a group.

What do you guys think of this? I find it oddly stupid to think it's racist. The fact that people are complaining about it being racist, is racist in itself.

What are some of the dumbest and most random things you can buy online? I've seen a fair share of oddities on Amazon especially. But what are some of the weirdest, most random items you can purchase on amazon and other sites. As well, I figure we could list finds that are just out of this world odd. Idk, lets have some fun with it. I'm sure we've all bookmarked some dumb stuff we found online.

For example, I'll begin with something I'm sure you've all seen. But it's a start to what stuff we should post in here.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced Thursday at the company’s Connect event that the company’s new name will be Meta. “We are a company that builds technology to connect,” Zuckerberg said. “Together, we can finally put people at the center of our technology. And together, we can unlock a massively bigger creator economy.”

“To reflect who we are and what we hope to build,” he added. He said the name Facebook doesn’t fully encompass everything the company does now, and is still closely linked to one product. “But over time, I hope we are seen as a metaverse company.”

Mark Zuckerberg on why Facebook is rebranding to Meta​

Zuckerberg owns the Twitter handle @meta (whose tweets are protected as of this writing) and meta.com, which now redirects to a welcome page on Facebook that outlines the changes.

As The Verge first reported on October 19th, the rebrand is part of the company’s efforts to shift gears away from being known as just a social media company to focus on Zuckerberg’s plans for building the metaverse. In July, he told The Verge that over the next several years, Facebook would “effectively transition from people seeing us as primarily being a social media company to being a metaverse company.”

Zuckerberg wrote in a blog post Thursday that the company’s corporate structure would not be changing, but how it reports financial results will. “Starting with our results for the fourth quarter of 2021, we plan to report on two operating segments: Family of Apps and Reality Labs” he explained. “We also intend to start trading under the new stock ticker we have reserved, MVRS, on December 1. Today’s announcement does not affect how we use or share data.”

What is the metaverse, and do I have to care?
Facebook has been under intense scrutiny over the past several weeks, after revelations based on damning internal documents provided to the Wall Street Journal by whistleblower Frances Haugen showed, among other things, that Facebook’s Instagram platform had become a toxic place for teenagers, especially girls. And antitrust regulators are pushing for the company to be broken up, as public trust in the social media platform is flagging.

Eight things we learned from the Facebook Papers
On Monday, multiple news outlets published further details of the internal documents disclosed to the Securities and Exchange Commission and provided to Congress in redacted form. They showed the deep concern among Facebook’s researchers that its user base was aging, and the platform was losing traction among younger generations. The documents also showed Facebook had a tiered system to prioritize which countries would receive enhanced protections around elections.

Early speculation focused on a change similar to Google’s 2015 rebrand when it announced it would become one of several companies under the umbrella of a larger holding company called Alphabet. For Facebook, the original “blue” app would join Instagram, WhatsApp, and Oculus under a parent company.

I thought since a lot of us are bound to be Christmas shopping, we could use a thread for online sales. I know for me, I do most of my shopping online these days. Just don't wanna deal with people or the hassle of getting eyeballed and lectured in stores. If you come across anything that is on a good sale or was marked down to an insanely low price, feel free to share it here.
