My sister has become a vegan, and I don't understand it. I gotta have my meat and dairy products. I also can't see myself eating nothing but fruits/veggies, and other plant based foods. I respect whoever wants to be vegan or a vegetarian, but it's just not for me. I don't think I could ever cut out meat. It's just something I don't ever want to give up.

Anyway, who here is a vegan or vegetarian?

We have been on the bandwagon for crypto for about 6 years, but these last 2 years have been mining everything from ETH (Our main stay), Bitcoin, Litecoin, Helium Coins and now NFT's. I am NO pro at this and find asking questions in the crypto mining world to be fair.
At the current time we are waiting for a AIO ASIC BTC miner able to run a full node.

She straight aired them all out. I hate retail jobs like that, the old battle axes that been a supervisor or team lead for 10 years be power tripping hardcore.

It's like "Bernice, you a Shift Lead at Walmart let's take it down a notch".

I like to think I'm a spontaneous planner lol I like to plan and have a set outline for whatever I'm doing but I can adapt if I need to. I used to plan too much but I've learned it's better for me to do whatever planning I can and then not stress about it.

If not, then why not?
If you do wear a mask, how long do you plan to continue wearing it?

Since a few threads got on the topic of survival if ish hits the fan, I thought this could make for a fun discussion. I am fascinated with how the mind works and how humans are capable of doing some pretty insane things when their survival (or their family’s survival) is on the line. What can I say? I like some far-out topics lol

One thing I always looked into was prepping. I am no tin hat nut by any means but I have to respect people who are prepared and have a plan if things get heavy. I have looked into options for water filtration, watched videos on how to grow food, hunt, skin, and everything. I am still a long way away from knowing most of this stuff, but I see nothing wrong with people having this kind of knowledge. If it came down to it, people who know how to clean water, get access to food, know how to arm themselves and run an ongoing supply will be the ones who survive.

So let’s discuss what things we can do to prepare without getting to a point of paranoia.

That don’t look pretty on anyone lol

We talk a lot about the brothers on this site; but we have some really dope women on here, too!
@Red Velvet @sourgrapes @De'Londa Brice @Nicole0646_718 @lexodyssey @Tati 304 and all of the other ladies of 6Zeros, I appreciate you all!

This is something I did a lot growing up. I would go with my mom and grandma and I had a lot of fun. My mom would give me $10 to buy whatever I wanted but I only had that $10 so I had to decide if I really wanted something or if I wanted to wait for the next sale. She also said I could save it for the next time we went if I wanted so I could have more spending money for next time which I did do a few times. We’d go to like 5 to 10 different sales in a day and did this most Saturdays in the summer.

I have not gone to any as an adult. There are some popping up in my area and I am considering going. I just don’t want people being all funny because of COVID. lol

Do you guys ever crash parties and other events? As in go to them uninvited. I have crashed many parties in my day, even a wedding. I never crashed any major events or anything, just mostly local house parties, some college parties and so on. Did you guys and ladies ever do any party crashing?

I just attended a wedding yesterday for my niece and it was a fun one. My mother-in-law was fed up about pictures taking too long, and the grooms parents were arguing with my side of the family. It was a ride haha!

What are your feelings on attending weddings? I love going to weddings for the food mostly, but seeing and hangin with the fam is always an added bonus for me. But, I find when we all meet up, arguing ensues, so I only attend weddings for really close fam, because I can't deal with the drama anymore.

I thought this would be interesting. Maybe we can even check back at the end of the year and see how we did?

My goals for the year were to read more books, create a better work/life balance, and maintain a better workout schedule. So far, I've read more books and I feel like I'm just now getting a better balance with work. I still could use some work on a more consistent workout schedule though but I'm getting better lol

It's interesting how the Democrats talk all this about protecting immigrants and they are bringing in Afghans but when the immigrants are Black they're sending them back.

I have both but I prefer the bonnet. It keeps my hair from getting too frizzy while I sleep and I also like that it keeps my hair off my face. I have the pillowcase too in case I just don't feel like putting my hair in the bonnet that night. What do you use?

Do you care about your online privacy?

This is a topic I can say I never thought I would care about up until a few years ago. I became rather paranoid with things when all these reports were coming out about how the government and the big tech corporations were spying on us and using our information for capital gain. I got away from Windows and run Linux only these days. I also block places like Facebook, Insta, and Twitter on my computer and laptop. I can still access them if I need to from a secondary browser that I run a VPN through. Needless to say, I take it very seriously these days.

How about you - is this something you concern yourself with?

Anybody draw or do anything creative? Feel free to share your work or discuss/link stuff you like or find interesting.

If you are not familiar, here it is in a nutshell:

The Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male was an ethically abusive study conducted between 1932 and 1972 by the United States Public Health Service and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on a group of nearly 400 African Americans with syphilis.

There have been several “studies” (experiments) run on people throughout modern history using risky drugs, vaccination, and fake treatments. This is one prime example why a lot of people, especially black people, are not trusting this vaccination push. The fact that the CDC, who is the main one pushing the vaccines, ran this up until the ‘70s is horrifying.

I am not saying don’t get the vaccine. I am also not saying to get the vaccine. I think it is up to us as individuals to decide what is best for us. I work in a clinic and had to get it. I do not trust the CDC for many reasons and this is one of them.

I just learned about duck flower, and am planning to try it. Apparently, removes a ton of toxins (mucus, parasites, impurities, etc.) from the body quickly, but it is ROUGH!
I've watched a few YouTube reviews, and everybody said that you will throw up & have diarrhea for 6-8 hours, but feel great afterwards.

If you've ever been in one of these then you know they pull so hard. I'm pretty sure this will be a short lived record though as the Tesla Roadster is going to dust the Model S due to less weight and lower height.

I’ve attached a video for the TL;DR crowd but basically Zillow:

• Analyzes who is attempting to buy what and where
• How much they can afford
• It takes this data in amalgam and uses it to know where to purchase houses
• It buys all the houses in an area for cash and then the last house they buy they’ll buy it for more so that it increases the value of al the previous houses it bought
• They know people can afford the price difference because they know who is searching there and how much they can afford
