    Ladies, how do you feel about fake lashes?

    I wore them a lot as a teen. I would get those long doll-looking ones too. I felt so full of myself anytime I popped them on lol I have since stopped wearing them as the glue and constant weight on my naturals were damaging them. Since I stopped, mind you it took several years, my natural...

    You think we will see more shortages?

    This is true and something I have had worries about. They already are trying to make the generation growing up now a generation of renters, not land owners. It is a scary thought. They control the food supply this much, they will control everything. This is something that I have thought of. I...

    You think we will see more shortages?

    Yes, in cities this is the case but white suburbs have them. I have seen them. Once you get further out though (away from the city), it is just huge farmlands run by a family or small group with no community access.

    Have you ever heard about the rat utopia experiment?

    A group of rats were given an endless supply of food, water, and everything else they needed. They didn’t have to fight for anything. They had their lives made easy. After a few generations of having all their needs met (counteracting their instincts of survival), they started fighting and...

    Black culture in the US - What needs to change?

    I think it is important we hold onto our culture and uplift the good aspects of it but I feel like we will not go anywhere if we continue to uplift the bad aspects of it and let white-washed Jewish men in Hollywood dictate what is and is not our culture for us. They promote the worst things...

    You think we will see more shortages?

    I wonder how hard it would be to organize a local public gardening space where people can come together and learn how to grow and harvest. I think this is something that would benefit a lot of people. I always hear of this being a thing in white neighborhoods. It would make sense for anyone...

    You think we will see more shortages?

    https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2021/09/07/labor-day-2021-when-worker-shortage-end/5674223001/ So I am seeing stories like this one pop up. Seems like we are in for a good few years of this mess which don't surprise me. I mean the 2008 crash took years to fix and I don't think it ever...

    Confirmed: Stop Asian Hate was a Farce

    I remember reading something a while back about Star Wars. Apparently, Christ was the inspiration for Vader. Makes you really think now doesn't it? I can see this though. Going to pick up this book soon.

    Are scalpers still taking up all the new gen video game consoles?

    I think it has died down a bit. They still try though because the shortages are still somewhat of an issue when it comes to parts and labor. I think most people I know who wanted an Xbox or PS5 got them at this point but Switch still seems to be hit or miss.

    COVID-19 Megathread

    Damn sheeple man. This is why people in large groups mess things up for everyone else.

    Confirmed: Stop Asian Hate was a Farce

    Fall of Rome 2.0 it seems. The US legit funded the labs in China which led to the leak. If they are funding this kind of crap, imagine what else they are doing. The US is heading into a very dark totalitarian future at this point and a lot of people will wake up to it one day too late.

    You think we will see more shortages?

    A lot of talks about this vaccine mandating messing with truckers. A lot of them are not down with the government telling them what they can and can't do and I don't blame them. I am worried we will see more shortages though, especially if they go on strike. I have already witnessed several in...

    What are your biggest pet peeves?

    Preach. I hate this. I have hated it since I was in school. I remember this girl that used to sit near me during lunch did this and it drove me nuts. That and sucking fingers while you're eating. I hate the smacking down, it can drive me up a wall.

    COVID-19 Megathread

    I don't know how anyone can tolerate this BS man. The dude is a puppet and the establishment and rich elites have their hands so far up the man's backside, is it any wonder he had to let us know he could still wipe himself? No joke... The dude legit told a report he wiped. WTF

    Confirmed: Stop Asian Hate was a Farce

    So much of what we are fed is a farce and nothing but hyperbolic lies meant to keep us fighting each other. It is all by design. I remember a while back that a lot of BLM shirts and what have you were being made in Chinese sweatshops as products of slave labor. It is ironic and sickening. They...

    Mandated Vaccination - How will this affect black Americans?

    I see good old Joe has put in an order to mandate vaccination through companies. If a company has more than 100 employees, they will either have to do weekly testing (which is not cheap) or force vaccinate their employees. I am wondering how this will affect black communities and black...

    What y’all feeling about married couples and joint accounts?

    This really depends on who you marry. I don't mind a joint account. I think if you are in a marriage, regardless of who makes what, that money becomes one income that both people can use. I think it is fair to say you can use the money you make to get what you want within reason but if you need...

    Wigs, Weave, Natural - What is your preference?

    That is what disappoints me. There should be more affordable options for black women. The cheaper stuff always looks cheap!

    Should everyone start wearing their own body cams?

    To live in a world where we feel it is necessary to wear cameras to protect ourselves is a problem. I get where you are coming from though. I think at the very least, having personal cameras on your home and in your own property is a good idea. When you are out in a public space where things...

    Does anyone here have their own YouTube? Is it worth creating content there?

    This is why you build contacts everywhere you go. If you have something someone else wants, needs, or enjoys... You make damn sure they know where to find you. I think it is fantastic that anyone can be a business owner online these days but you have to make sure you protect yourself.
