    The Metaverse Is Worse Than You Think

    They are keeping tabs on everyone be it for their own agenda or for the purposes of educating the AI systems. I tell people all the time they are working for the billionaires of the world just by using Facebook, Twitter, etc. only they aren't seeing a dime and they laugh at me. As individuals...

    Black boy, crochet prodigy

    You can tell this boy is going to go places. Heck, he can probably start his own business selling his items online. I would buy some! I wish I had half his skill when it came to this. I learned how to sew by learning stitches in medical school LOL That's just bad.

    The Metaverse Is Worse Than You Think

    In terms of work, it would not surprise me if they have low-level earners whose sole purpose is to just educate the AI by doing pointless and repetitive tasks. Think of those reCAPTCHA things Google uses. That is being used to train AI and most people don't even realize it.

    Who has the best flow in terms of speed?

    I know there are a lot of names out there and there is a good chance I have overlooked many of them. I know there is a lot of talent in the underground but you usually only know about those artists if they are local to your area. In terms of rapping, when it comes to speed... Who has the best...

    Return what's ours (stolen artifacts)

    I saw a meme a while ago mocking some of the big museums of the world. Something along the lines of calling them crime scenes. I get wanting to preserve history but I feel like, at this point, we should have our own spaces so our history doesn't get construed with lies. It is bad enough we don't...

    COVID-19 Megathread

    Yeah, I heard this. I think seafood might keep longer but not 100% certain. My mom told me if you are going to store meats for an extended period of time, it is best to store them cooked already. Like she makes big batches of chicken soup, meat sauces, etc. and those keep for about a year.

    When do you think this nonsense will end?

    That is something good to reflect on. I am sure a lot of people would have made the moves but most likely would not have changed and they are just looking at the virus and everything that happened as a result as an excuse to not hold themselves accountable for their choices. I know for me, I...

    Does Africa Owe Black Americans Reparations?

    Wow, I never knew that! Why aren't we learning about this in school? I swear they don't want us to feel empowered in our own heritage or something. Thanks for pointing this out. I am going to read into it more.

    Do You Have a TV in the Bedroom

    You don't need a TV for that though. I have a Bluetooth speaker set in my bedroom and if I want to put on some music, I do so through my phone. I get the convenience of a TV though, especially with kids.

    Flik Trying To Look Sexy

    I mean if you are sexually aroused by balloons and plastic, sure. There are people out there with some wild and weird fetishes so I am sure someone out there thinks this is the ideal female form.

    COVID-19 Megathread

    Some older dude was talking about an engineered foot shortage at the clinic the other day and I had no idea what he was talking about but it all coming together. They are doing this on purpose. They can take steps to make improvements but they are doing everything in their power to ensure a lot...

    Do You Have a TV in the Bedroom

    This is something I am pretty strict on. I don't like having one in the bedroom and I don't want one in there. My bedroom is a place of sleep, calm, and general rest from the damages and issues of the world. I don't want that mess in there in any form. I know a lot of couples though that have a...

    Flik Trying To Look Sexy

    She looks like a cartoon character and not in a good way. Like who the hell put it in her damn mind this was a good investment and idea? She looks like someone stuffed balloons in her chest, butt, and lips and called it a day. How is this a turn-on for any dude out there?

    When do you think this nonsense will end?

    Between people still living in fear over the virus damn near 2 years later, issues with stock and shortages, inflation hitting every aspect of our lives... When is this nonsense going to end? I am over here trying to plan for my future and I am afraid to take any step forward when it comes to...

    COVID-19 Megathread

    I notice when I was doing some shopping yesterday, meat prices are almost double what they were just 2 years ago. The shelves are looking more and more empty too. My mom actually got herself a used freezer and started storing meats last year. I probably should have done the same. Of everything...

    Does Africa Owe Black Americans Reparations?

    I feel like putting it all on Africa does take away from the fact that it was wrong to begin with. Back then, it was legal and the people in this country could have chosen not to participate but they did so they are just as much to blame as the people who were doing the selling. Africa made a...

    Buying new, used, or leasing?

    The older I get the more I question the logic of driving around junk cars. Like I know if you need a car and don't have the cash for something better, that is the option you have to go with but you risk a lot driving one around. I have always been a bit paranoid of older used cars myself. I was...

    Would you marry an ex-stripper, escort, prostitute, etc.?

    Yeah, women can be very indecisive, I know from experience. Like if I am interested in someone and they aren't showing me any signs of being interested back, I am not going to wait around. Maybe I am old school with this but I think men need to be the ones to approach women, not the other way...

    How long do you think the chip shortage will last?

    You are probably right. I mean think of all the money they save by hiring outside the country. Almost all big corps do this at this point. They want cheap labor so they can hoard more money. They do little with it as well which doesn't benefit our economy.
