I guess it depends on what happened but I feel like I typically do hold grudges. I've never been great at being someone who forgives and forgets lol But I know that can help if it's something that continues to effect you. If you don't hold a grudge, what are some things you do that to help get over something?

Wish they worked together more I'm their career...a Verbal Intercourse PT. 2 is necessary

Cannabis has been legalized in some states, either it be for medicinal use, or recreational for some lucky ones. But there are still many states where it's still illegal to smoke cannabis or ingest it in any way. So far Colorado, Michigan and other states are making tons of cash from the dispensaries that have sprung up since. I'm all for legalization. I feel cannabis is one of the safest drugs you can take. I prefer it over drinking honestly.

Anyway, has your state legalized cannabis? If not, what's the laws for it where you live?

It’s about time they clamp down on this. His whole game is based on getting refs to blow the whistle.

I remember when I first heard about this, I thought "yeah this can't be for real!" but with everything that has happened in the last year alone, it really makes you think. I feel like they are trying to push this through and most people have no idea it is even happening because they disguise it using race issues, gender issues, climate issues, and money issues. This kind of stuff always starts in Cali too.

What are your thoughts on this? How would you like to own nothing and be happy?

I don't know if you all heard but they are having a lot of issues right now. There are flight attendants and pilots either going on strike or flat out quitting over the vaccine mandates. I applaud them for it but I feel like this is only going to result in what the rich people want. They don't want everyday people to be able to afford the luxury of flights. It is almost as if they knew the budget airlines would tank first. What are your thoughts on all this?

… but not for the racial remarks. He messed around and said something about gay folks.

Listen to reality. Policing is unhealthy for the police and the community. Like soldiers in the Armed Forces, they kill other people and then kill themselves. Does everybody have to die before we say to ourselves, "maybe we doing this wrong?"

Police exist as injustice enforcers because we are not doing the work, contemplating what true justice for all means and how to achieve it. You most certainly do not derive justice from injustice, which is what America's justice system claims to do.

I understand we need steppingstones. That's fine but let's not delude ourselves into believing if we get the same treatment as whites, the system would be just. The current method simply cannot produce justice for all (which is the only way justice can exist). It's impossible.

We might think we want it, but Police reform is not even close to what we actually want.

I got this from the shade room so take it with a grain of salt.

“I wanted to follow up on ‘The Closer’ – Dave Chappelle’s latest special – as several of you have reached out following QBR asking what to say to your teams. It never feels good when people are hurting, especially our colleagues, so I wanted to give you some additional context. You should also be aware that some talent may join third parties in asking us to remove the show in the coming days, which we are not going to do.

Chappelle is one of the most popular stand-up comedians today, and we have a long standing deal with him. His last special, ‘Sticks & Stones,’ also controversial, is our most watched, stickiest, and most award winning stand-up special to date. As with our other talent, we work hard to support their creative freedom – even though this means there will always be content on Netflix some people believe is harmful, like ‘Cuties,’ ‘365 Days,’ ‘13 Reasons Why,’ or ‘My Unorthodox Life.’

Several of you have also asked where we draw the line on hate. We don’t allow titles on Netflix that are designed to incite hate or violence, and we don’t believe ‘The Closer’ crosses that line. I recognize, however, that distinguishing between commentary and harm is hard, especially with stand-up comedy which exists to push boundaries. Some people find the art of stand-up to be mean-spirited but our members enjoy it, and it’s an important part of our content offering.

In terms of our commitment to inclusion, we’re working hard to ensure more people see their lives reflected on screen and that under-represented communities are not defined by the single story. So we’re proud of titles like ‘Sex Education,’ ‘Young Royals,’ ‘Control Z’ and ‘Disclosure.’ Externally, particularly in stand-up comedy, artistic freedom is obviously a very different standard of speech than we allow internally as the goals are different: entertaining people versus maintaining a respectful, productive workplace.

Today’s conversation on Entertain the World was timely. These are hard and uncomfortable issues. We all bring different values and perspectives so thank you for being part of the conversation as it’s important we’re clear about our operating principles.”

Back in the day it was called "little beruit", when gang culture reached us in 79 - 80, it was our neighbors from Cali who introduced us to it, they moved here to basically make money off dope, we didn't have dope houses or "spots" until they came. My fathers side of my family are all LA born, so growing up I knew what the deal was, but portland (my city) had no clue what was about to hit.
I witnessed what was going on in 87, I was part of it and to see homicides in 2021 over taking the death toll of 87... Says a lot, especially when we don't have gang's around like we used to. honestly, when they gentrified my area, crime got worse, and it's not slowing down... I miss my city. #PDX

I go to antique shops to find old African masks or interesting things, and I came across this old school world class wrecking crew album, I'm into vinyl, they have a certain sound to them especially the older jazz albums.. But I thought this was a good find.

California becomes first state to require gender-neutral toy aisles at large retail stores

Last game I pre-ordered was actually the Alan Wake Remastered that just came out. But before that, the last game I actually pre-ordered from a store was GTA V for the Xbox 360. Yes, all the way back then. I was not really into pre-ordering. It kinda feels pointless, when they clearly make enough games on release. I could go to Gamestop on the day of release and still get it.

Do you pre-order? Or do you only pre-order certain games to get special editions or special gifts?

The best album, in my opinion, that was relreleased this past Friday is Don Tollivers Life of a Don. Don hails from Houston Texas and is similar to Travis Scott, but has a more rigid sounding style. This album went way beyond my expectations. Favorite songs are Swanging on Westheimer, Bogus, and Way Bigger.
