    What is your love language?

    Words of affirmation for me I think. I mean I have never had a high value of myself in my own eyes so it is important whoever I am with takes time to ensure I feel valued in the relationship.

    Do you enjoy partying on the weekends, or doing something else?

    I went out a lot more in my late teens and early 20's. I never felt socially comfortable at parties though. People were too loud and too drunk for my liking. I tended to just find a small group of other people at the parties I went to and just hang out with them away from everyone else lol

    How do you manage your finances and debts?

    I grew up watching my parents struggle with this. Now I see my siblings doing the same and it kind of prevented me from acquiring huge amounts of debt out of paranoia. Like I didn't want to be in the kind of position where I have to struggle and worry all the time. I learned some stuff over the...

    The housing system is broken how do we fix it?

    What gets me about how things are right now is that in order to live in a nice area and be able to afford a decent house, you'd have to be earning a good 50k a year, not have any major debts, any kids and in some cases, you might still be scraping by because of health insurance costs, property...

    Celebs past and present you'd love to chill with

    Michael Jackson. I am well aware of the accusations and I don't think he did what people accuse him of. I think his father just abused him so severely, well he didn't know how to function or socialize properly in certain aspects of his life. I always thought he was a cool dude and would have...

    Collectibles as an investment?

    A friend of mine's older brother has been doing this for like 10 years now. He buys things like LEGO sets and limited toy items and then just stored them to resell them. He has only sold a few things but he has made a decent profit off them. I just feel like it is a risk because, at any time...

    Would you ever be into an open relationship?

    Nope. Not interested. I have a hard enough time building and maintaining trust with one person, throw in others and you end up with a mess. I know for some people it works out just fine but those are some small numbers. Most people can't handle it even if they are open to it at first.

    Do you rent or own?

    Currently, I am renting but I am hoping to buy a house next year. Likely going to get a raise at work. I have been looking around at houses on Trulia. The prices seem to be on the higher side compared to just a year ago. Likely down to COVID and people leaving the city and being able to work...

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

    A friend I had joined when he was 18. This was back in like 2009 I think. He said part of the training he had to go through was conditional training where if it was requested, he would be willing to kill his own family without second-guessing it. I can't imagine what they are doing now. How long...

    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...

    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.
