    Did you ever read the Bible cover to cover?

    I assumed it would take longer than a year. I am doing the daily reading as per the recommendations in the back, the whole "read the bible in one year" thing. As I read, if I feel I need assistance in understanding anything, I will research it. I feel like it will be good for me and my spiritual...

    Good Workout Tracks

    Looking for some solid workout tracks to add to a playlist. I want to start getting back into exercise. I mostly just do walks and go for jogs when the weather permits so really any sort of music works for this but I want some high energy mixed in. I am considering joining a local gym with a...

    Do you think your past experiences help you decide on what you want?

    In terms of finding the ideal partner, do you think your past experiences with previous relationships help to discover what you want in a partner or do you view it more as wasted time? I was talking to someone who recently got married and she said she regretted her past and not finding her man...

    Did you ever read the Bible cover to cover?

    Curious to see if anyone here has. I have not but I am working on it now. Got myself a new KJV bible and I am reading it almost daily. I want to actually read the entire thing instead to cherry-picking and reading the same few chapters and verses over and over again. I just have to stick with...

    Americans Continue To Quit

    They need to make it worthwhile for people to work again or they will just continue to walk away. Prior to 2020 I was content with my job but now I am looking for better options for myself. What is sad though is all those illegals coming up from Mexico are going to snap up these jobs and even...

    Otter Handling His Business

    Yeah they can be loud. They love to talk. A few years ago I was hooked on fennec foxes and wanted one... Until I heard how loud they can get then I said no thanks, I will stick with cats! lol

    Would you ever consider micro-farming?

    I have seen plenty of people who never went to school who know how to do this stuff, I think you have to have the natural talent for it. Who knows, it might run in your family. You should give something like this a try and see if it works out. Can't hurt to take up a hobby that benefits you in...

    Negro league

    Well yeah, there are a lot of white liberals who virtue signal and use black sports players, actors, etc. for "emotional gain" kind of like going to church on Sunday and expecting a pat on the back. Why not try and capitalize off it? I mean so long as what is made is black run and owned, f em...

    Love Lost

    This stuff is hard for me to watch. Not because I can't sympathize, but because I sympathize too much. It hurts to see people hurting over loss. Hell, I will cry if I see an animal mourning his or her loss. I saw a friend's cat go through this. Her other cat died suddenly and the poor thing...

    The Hidden Metric on Black People’s Performance Reviews

    They have a feminine air to them, I have seen it. Very few feel strong to me. And you are spot on with the HR positions. They won't let me hold the desk at work probably cause I am not the right mold for them.

    Fresh and Fit Talk About Not Wanting to Date Shaniquas

    I heard about them, never looking into them in great detail but they are clearly being influenced by a white fanbase who doesn't want them to be with black women, for whatever reason. They act like all black women are the same and they use those clear white influenced stereotypes to put them in...

    The Hidden Metric on Black People’s Performance Reviews

    You would think that they would want someone in a higher position that is able to set aside office relationships to get the job done... But no, they want people they know they can control. You ever notice how a lot of higher-up positions are legit held by white men who you know would cheat on...

    Otter Handling His Business

    LOL I bet he didn't know he was on camera! I always thought these guys were cute. They are like aquatic foxes mixed with cats or something. Anything that remotely resembles a cat in look or play always gets my heart. So cute!

    The Hidden Metric on Black People’s Performance Reviews

    I still find it funny how white people are complaining about being traced, tracked, and databased today when black people in America have been on these kinds of books for decades. I make a point to never talk politics or religion at work cause I know there are people who will use anything I...

    Viral images show people of color as anti-Asian perpetrators. That misses the big picture.

    Going to check this out later when I get home from work. Thanks for the heads up on this. I do prefer to watch couples when it comes to stuff like this and honestly, it can be a struggle to find farming content for and by black individuals online. I could be looking in the wrong places. I only...

    Would you ever consider micro-farming?

    It is hard to manage time for stuff like this so it does help to have a partner who is invested where you aren't so you can have the best of both worlds. It is a shame more younger people aren't getting into agriculture and working with their hands though.

    Negro league

    I was way too young to know about this. I will have to look into it more. What I said was in reference to how these black men (and women) are idolized and valued by not only members of the black community, but even by white people. Maybe this black league came too soon?

    Do You Eat And Make Mexican Food?

    There are a lot of people in America who think Taco Bell is Mexican food. I even met a younger Mexcian girl who believe this. I told her that her family would be ashamed of her LOL

    Viral images show people of color as anti-Asian perpetrators. That misses the big picture.

    I struggle with either analyzing too much or not enough, I am aware of my faults. And you are 100% correct. They serve no real value anymore outside of maybe checking sports scores or the weather.

    What little things in life bring you joy?

    I am trying to be more positive this year as a whole not only in my life but within my worldview. So I am making an effort to be more thankful, grateful, and just focusing on the little things in life that bring me pleasure, joy, and peace. I think we can all use a few moments a day to reflect...
