    Do you think the bad aspects of different cultures in the west are being praised too much?

    It is like that comic I see floating around. Have the pitchfork people fight the torch people and they will stay distracted away from the real problem and the real threat. These fat cats are drinking all the milk and probably taking bets on what we will do next. I am honestly shocked they didn't...

    I got the second shot of Pfizer today my arm hurts like hell

    Last I heard she is okay. She had a fever for a few days but the swelling and pain went away since then. I feel like the vaccines weren't screened enough. Like most of them takes a minimum of like 4 years to properly test and this one was done in less than a year. I just hope if there are any...

    Do you think the bad aspects of different cultures in the west are being praised too much?

    I think they are. When I was still on Twitter, I saw a whole mess of different things. I mean we see it in TV, movies, and music even. Like people are being told to be selfish, worry about themselves, and all that. Like yes, you take care of yourself but not to a point where you become a scumbag...

    Streamers are dealing with bots posting racist/offensive things on Twitch

    Yup. You get called all sorts on multiplayer games. I remember the CoD days. My younger sister played it as well and they were sexist as hell to her. At the time she was only 15 too. Some people just don't know how to not be dumbasses. I don't take it to heart or let it affect me. When you do...

    Tattoos & Body Piercings - They too mainstream now?

    Most people I know have one or both. Some have many tats or many piercings while some only have a few. I even know an older woman in her 70's who has 3 of them. I feel like they have officially become mainstream and in that sense, they shouldn't be viewed as something "trashy" or "negative" when...

    13 Year Old Becomes Youngest Student on Georgia Teach Campus

    We need more of this. Black boys need to be lifted up and appreciated for things like this more. I am sick of seeing them feeling like they have to be stuck in the hood and slinging drugs around to matter. If you are good at a sport, you ride that and get out of the ghetto. If you come from a...

    Spike Lee does not believe the official 9/11 report: ‘I got questions’

    I never believed it. I always said it was an inside job. I don't care what people call me because of it. I have not trusted the government since I was 10 years old and old enough to know what it was. They are snakes. I don't care what side or labels they use, they are almost always snakes. If...

    Do you have a creative outlet?

    I was reading about this the other day. How having a creative outlet could help you better cope with stress and all that. It got me to thinking about what I do. It has been a while but I used to draw a lot. I actually wanted to get into illustration and do comics years ago but I never did it. I...

    Public transportation sucks!

    Man they need to fix this mess. I always heard it was bad but I had no idea. Like they tax us left and right and can't even supply clean public transportation? Where the heck are our tax dollars going then? lol

    I got the second shot of Pfizer today my arm hurts like hell

    My cousin got the first shot and had a bad reaction to it. Her arm was swollen to twice the size and was throbbing in pain. Her mother is a nurse and told her to just skip the second one. She already had Covid so to her, she should be protected enough. I think people with allergies and certain...

    Public transportation sucks!

    It has been a while since I had to take the bus but my car recently had some issues and I had to get to work. The state of the buses in my area are a joke. They look all worn out and people on them, I don't know man they just act as they have never been around people in public before. This one...

    Cannabis legal where you live?

    Yeah, I am in Michigan. I think it is only a matter of time before it is legal everywhere. I mean I don't smoke the stuff but if alcohol is legal, why can't weed be? It is far less damaging and kills next to no one. Plus, it gives people an alternative to addictive pain killers.

    Have you ever dated someone who turned out to be crazy?

    A lot of people put on a front where they appear to be everything you want in a partner. Like they actually do it without even realizing it. I witnessed it a few times firsthand. The issue with this though is that you end up committed to a person who is nothing like they were when you first met...

    You think the mental health crisis will ever be addressed?

    I see so many struggles with families, it is insane. From depression to anxiety, even cases of bipolar and schizophrenia are on the rise. Then you have medical mental decline in dementia and Alzymer's. That is projected to go up 50% by 2050. Those are some scary high numbers! Seems like no one...

    Do you think we'll be made to wear masks forever?

    It is spreading but no one is dying from it which is what should be the most important thing. Like I hate when people make it about politics. We should be focused on health and if the death numbers are going down, it is good for everyone.

    Ideal companion as far as pets go?

    Most people I know are dog people. I like dogs but only certain breeds and I am fussy with them. Like I tend to only like my own. I have a German Shepherd. A friend of mine breeds them so he sold me a pup a few years ago for half price. He is a good dog. I have actually been partial to cats...

    Any good podcast recommendations?

    Not really into these at the moment. The only one I will occasionally tune into is Timcast but that is mostly political and cultural issues. I know not everyone wants to listen to that stuff. They have some pretty solid guests though which is the main reason I will tune in now and then.

    Why are a lot of concerts for rap prominently white crowds?

    Damn, I had no idea. So in a way, the rock genre and other genres were built off the back of the black creative mind. That is nuts! I really should be more aware of this though cause, when you think back in music history, when it evolved from classical music and branched out, was when different...

    How many of y’all only use credit cards?

    When I was younger, I ended up with some debt because I lost my job. My credit score got fisted because of it so since then, I haven't used credit. I got my score up by having a monthly cable bill, car bill, and phone bill. It took a lot longer than had I just went back to cards but I feel more...

    What kind of phone do you have?

    There are so many out there these days when it comes to smartphones. I have been back and forth over the years but I was someone who never wanted anything outside of Samsung for a while. I always got the Galaxy and got a new one every few years. I recently switched and went with an import brand...
