A second civil war: One year after Trump's violent insurrection, how worried should we be?

To no one's surprise, Donald Trump wanted to use the anniversary of the insurrection he incited on January 6 to incite more violence. To commemorate the day when he sent a violent mob to the Capitol to intimidate then-Vice President Mike Pence into refusing to certify Joe Biden's electoral win, Trump scheduled a press conference at Mar-A-Lago.

every time I read stories like this; I hear Phil Collins song playing in my head "in the air tonight" everyone can feel the tension, everyone is waiting to see what the last straw is that will spark this BS. I hope my people are as prepared as they can be.

What if you don't get along with the family?

Say you are dating someone and you are really thinking of your future together but you and his/her family do not get along. Maybe some of them downright hate you for whatever reason. How do you handle this?

I am asking cause I am paranoid about this happening to me. I mentioned seeing someone new. We had gone on a handful of dates already and are really having some chemistry. He wants me to go to his brother's surprise 40th birthday party next month and I am worried his fam will not like me and if that will set us back.

What is up with sports players all testing positive?

I keep hearing about this. More so in the NFL and NBA than other sports but it keeps happening. They set up rules that you have to be vaccinated so all the sports teams are fully vaxxed yet they keep getting sick? And there is some weird ish happening with soccer players in other countries dying of heart-related conditions. These healthy, young men just dropping dead. Wtf is going on with this?

Tensions Between FBA & Black Immigrants: Your Thoughts

I just read a good article about this issue. I first noticed the schism between FBA kids and Black immigrant kids in high school in Brooklyn. I noticed it the most with Haitian kids.

What are your thoughts on the manner in which Black immigrants come to America, exploit the work of FBAs for their gain and remain detached from the FBA history, experiences and pain? I personally am torn. On one hand, I hate to see any Black person suffer. On the other hand, I have no desire to lock arms with any Black person born abroad who feels more kinship with European descendants than us. The Haitian Border Crisis is a good example.

The article is here:

What does a B1 IPO look like?

"What makes a public company—or any business—Black-owned? The National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC) defines a minority business enterprise (MBE) as a "business [that] is at least 51% owned by or, in the case of a publicly owned business, at least 51% of the stock is owned by one or more such individuals." Simply put, the management and daily operations should be controlled by the minority owner(s)/shareholder(s). The NMSDC further clarifies that a Black-owned business is one whose owner is a "U.S. citizen of African descent," which would include both African Americans and African immigrants.", in the link below I looked at the top "black", IPOs and here's what I found:

6Zeros Will Be Hit By Whites, If...

6Zeros will be hit by trolls like an armada in the midst of a hurricane... if people were talking about something that disturbs whites mentally. The only sad part is that many people (like now) will become more and more paranoid and everyone will be suspect of being an agent, c00n and all the others things. In the end,
good people can possibly be pushed out. Most importantly, the psychological torture that whites experience from a site like this will be alleviated, and by proxy, whites will try to win. How do you actively combat paranoia while you are on this site?

What benefit could you possibly gain from dinner with Jay Z?

Semi serious question...we see the question but what can you actually gain from this? How can it benefit us? Would the business advice from an fifty minute dinner have any real potential to make you a multi millionaire? Would this get me a book deal? Will I gain a blue check on Twitter? Become the next Obama? Somebody let me know!

This Will Make You Have A Digital Orgasm

Weeeeeeeee!

I have loved AMD products and I use them in my main platform. I have also met the CEO of AMD and I have even been to her house with her wonderful husband and family. I am not surprised by AMD constantly giving Intel some real competition.
Team AMD for my next build.

What can you pass down/on?

I've noticed that a lot of the newer generations don't know how to do much, from simple tasks like changing a tire jumping a car fixing things around the house. What is it that you could teach a youngster that would come in handy throughout his life?
I can do a lot of basic things from changing a pipe (sink tub ect) to patching holes in sheetrock. I dabble in woodworking and can operate a ton of equipment (table saw routers miter saws ect) I can tune up a car (older ones) build computers, proficient with a lot of software (photoshop,3D max ,Radiant ect)
all of what I know I've taught my son and there's a ton of stuff I haven't mentioned but I'm just wondering why a lot of these kids nowadays seem to know hardly anything outside of tic tok IG and Facebook.

What can you pass to the younger generation?

Overeem TKO Brock

That cave man got himself in some trouble. Overeem got a nasty cut and you can see that the wound was deep. Brock has always been the great white hope and he has proven over and over again that he is not champion material. A decade ago he won the Heavyweight Championship so I'm not saying he is a complete turd.

Interesting note: Do you remember when Overeem was a US Marine?

Just kidding

We gotta do a better job of ignoring certain things.

The urge to drag, get outraged, or write thinkpeices on certain phenomena like the Fresh and Fit podcast, DJ Vlad, DJ Akademiks posts, or a lot of these blogs like SayCheese, The Shade Room, and the like needs to be quelled. I understand that they know which clips to use to generate certain reactions, but we as a community have to use our heads to dismiss if not ignore them completely.

Kevin Samuels is the most recent example of this, we didn't even know who he was at one time. After the model date he went on(which I believe they were both in on for views) and a couple viral videos shoot around, he's an internet household name in the community. Some love him, many hate him, but all sharing takes on him did was keep him in trends for a solid amount of time. People that don't like him that post hate thinkpeices about him are doing him more of a favor then those who choose to ignore what he posts.

I've blocked or refuse to even engage with many subjects, products or people, for the simple fact that I don't want them to trend. Collectively it's easier said than done, but if this message can spread more things might change. In the meantime do it for your personal well-being.

Several HBCUs receive bomb threats on same day

Looks like the WS are stepping up the terror tactics. I urge all of FBA to please prepare yourself, these white supremist are itching to war with us and, they are inching closer to their goal. Keep that power tool and kandy bar fully operational and handy!

At least seven historically Black colleges and universities received bomb threats Tuesday afternoon and evening, according to school officials. The threats forced campuses to lockdown or evacuate and local law enforcement was alerted.

I Don't Hate Anyone

The title is the tone of this whole post.

I feel that we have "jumped the shark" and I am all out of understanding.
A "born female" told me that she is a "Medusan". I went to trusty google to see what that was:

I can't believe WTH I am seeing. She was serious.

I'm not really understanding what people need as far as their junk needs to be stimulated or for their self expression.
Wear a wig and heels if you want, I don't care. Wear suspenders and a bow tie if you have a vagina, I don't care.
I get tired quickly with all these new names.

Help me, how do you deal with the infinite "titles" that we have today?
