    Bipartisan police reform negotiations over without deal

    Neither party is actually trying to reform the police. This is something that definitely won't happen in either the House of Representatives or in the Senate. Even if something gets passed in the House it won't ever make it through Senate where to get past the filibuster it would need over 60...

    Cops Threaten To SHOOT Rapper For Sitting In Car

    Absolutely insane that this can be caught on video/audio and the police responsible aren't fired immediately.

    Interracial agenda

    Not every interracial couple comes from a place of hatred. Some it just happened to land that way for them. If you look at some of my other posts on this thread, I mentioned that I have happened to live in areas that had a smaller black population. My first duty station when I was in the...

    Thrifting, anyone do it?

    The thrift stores here are actually pretty good. You find a lot of name brand stuff. Everything from clothing, furniture, and electronics. I bought a really nice computer bag a while back. Retails for around $100 and I got it for $10. It's not a primary shopping spot but I definitely do like...

    Inflation!

    It hits different when food goes to waste now. We seriously over did it for Christmas and we couldn't finish everything. When I had to toss all that food I almost wanted to cry!

    Inflation!

    I notice it the most when ordering out. It's noticeable when making grocery too. In that sense you just have to cook a bit more creatively and use foods that fill you up. Unfortunately that require eating more carbs which can be an unhealthy thing. I guess it is what it is though.

    How do I lower Blood Pressure?

    Current AHA recommendations are 130 or less systolic and 80 or less diastolic. Some physicians still go on the older standard which is less than 140 systolic and less than 90 diastolic. If you are in the 120s and 130s then you are generally okay. Diastolic if you are in the mid 80s then...

    Sinzae Reed, 13, murdered by anti black Kreig Butler, 36, of Columbus Ohio

    It's not at question whether or not this white supremacist terrorist killed the child. If the black child had a gun or there was any evidence of that trust and believe that police would be shouting that at the top of their lungs. So their rationale for not charging is that they are waiting on...

    ANY OTHER NURSES ON THE PLATFORM?

    I can't be the only one. Definitely the flyest one though! Are there any other nurses on the platform?

    How do I lower Blood Pressure?

    Also avoid excess caffeine intake. Energy drinks, too much soda. Limit sodas to one 12oz can per day. Even if diet or zero too many sodas are bad for your blood pressure!

    How do I lower Blood Pressure?

    As a nurse you have to look at factors that you can change. 1. Diet - avoid high sodium foods. Generally this is processed foods. Microwave meals, Ramen noodles, chips, beef jerky, pork skins, can foods, fast food sunflower seeds, salted peanuts. Keep you sodium intake low 2. Exercise - Cardio...

    2024 No Vote?

    This won't ever happen. As a whole black people will continue to vote blue no matter who. Nothing will change that. Not Professor Black Truth talking slick. Not Jason Black talking loud and angry. All that will do is upset you and have you constantly on edge. What can be done is to take steps...

    Competitive???

    It always annoys me just a bit when a company posts a job announcement that says competitive wages or competitive salary but then don't post what the salary is. From my experience when this occurs the wages usually aren't that competitive. Why not post at least a range? Then the perspective...

    Akon Explains Why Africans Are More Talented Than Black Americans

    The fact that we as black people even give a damn this much what he has to say speaks volumes more about black people than it does about Akon! This shouldn't even be a story. It shouldn't even make headlines. We should care so little that it doesn't even get talked about! That's not the case...

    DEALING WITH KARENS

    I don't even speak to them. I say nothing. Only two things will make me say a word to a Karen. They are endangering me. They are endangering my family. In which case I tell them to stop what ever is causing the danger and let them know the consequences of the don't. After that I don't say...

    The Code...

    Even if we definitively define what the code is, what makes you think people will follow it? I'm not trying to keep calamity from our doorsteps anymore. I'm just trying to keep it from mine. I gave up on the black community. Truth is there is no hope for us! Look out for self and that's all...

    DEALING WITH KARENS

    I just sit there and look at them like they are stupid without saying anything. If they try to approach me they I'll still sit there and not say anything. What I do is clench my fists. So not saying anything at all. If the Karen/Brad is about that business then they'll make a move. If not...

    DEALING WITH KARENS

    Unless they attempt to put hands on me I don't worry about em. I do believe in getting them fired. I once was in a Family Dollar and one of the workers started following me around. I left and didn't buy anything. I went back to the store every day for a week. I never bought anything. I...

    DEALING WITH KARENS

    You can find an attorney. First they aren't all racist. Second they aren't turning down money more than likely. I'm not talking getting an attorney probono. I mean pay and shell out cash to get justice. Arguing with the Karen will never work in your favor. If you're to broke and destitute to...

    The Code...

    There is no code. Black people do what feels good to them at the moment. They look out for self over group/community. Black people value entertainment and self/individual opinion over what's best for the group. I'm not excluded from that. The difference is I at least am honest about it. I no...
