    Think we should have an age limit for politicians in office?

    Or just term limits that last like 2-4 years. Enough of letting all of these corrupt politicians stay in power until the day they die. It's like we can't ever get to a point where old people aren't telling all of us what to do and how we should live our lives. Maybe term limits where you can...

    Dr. Dre was very close to dying last year

    I don't remember this, but I hear that Dr. Dre suffered an aneurysm last year, around January of last year, and had to be hospitalized. Doctors allowed his family to come in, even with covid restrictions, because they thought he was going die. But, he recovered and was able to make the Super...

    Trump's House was FBI Raided

    Well that's bigger than we first thought. I heard it was just a small bit of stuff he wrote up, had no idea he took that many classified documents. But this is Trump afterall, so I could see him trying to sneak all of these classified documents out as he knew he wasn't going to see a second...

    Black People They Don’t Want You

    This is one big reason I don't ever want to travel to countries like France or countries near it. Don't think I would ever go to France anyway, as to me it looks like a country that's stuck in the past and looks dingy and dirty anyway. Plus, I could see a lot of these businesses/restaurants...

    LL Cool J, Nicki Minaj, Jack Harlow to host MTV Video Music Awards

    Nice to see LL and Nicki Minaj getting the spotlight to host. I can't say I've heard much about Jack Harlow though. I'm aware he's a white rapper, but that's all I really know him for. I don't tend to listen to most white rappers, so I've no clue whether he's any good or not. Anyway, does anyone...

    Dodge unveils battery-powered Charger Daytona

    View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5CIwqUi-jE I'm not much of a car person, but I really like this design for the new Dodger Charger. It's going to be an all electric vehicle, and I heard it will even have fake muffler & engine sounds. Because I guess people gotta have their loud vehicles...

    Samsung's $3,500 'Odyssey Ark' 55-Inch Curved Gaming Display

    That honestly looks very practical, especially if you happen to do streaming of any sort. My current setup I have three monitors. I wouldn't mind upgrading to a curved monitor much like this, but damn too pricey for me. Maybe when they lower down in price some, I may consider it, but at the...

    What will it take for black people to collectively leave these social media apps alone?

    What we should do is just make a social media site just for us. I'm surprised there isn't one already, considering how often we're screwed over on social media platforms. I rarely comment or post on social media anymore, because what is the point? So many people argue, throw hate, and it just...

    Worried about Deep Fakes?

    I am genuinely afraid of what is capable with Deep Fakes these days. They've become a lot more sophisticated and are becoming even more realistic. Some of them you can tell, because of the uncanny valley (where you can tell the CGI doesn't belong), but there are some out there that are done so...

    Your thoughts on foldable smartphones

    Are you interested in those foldable smartphones? I think they're kinda cool and more screen is always a plus in my opinion, but I also hear they aren't as reliable as traditional smartphones. They break easier because the screens are made more of plastic, and there are parts that are prone to...

    Universal Basic Income a bad idea?

    Remember when that Andrew Yang ran for president back in 2020? One of his promises was to give all Americans a universal basic income of $1000 a month. He of course didn't get elected and his idea didn't come to light. But, with the recent inflation and possible recession, do you think it would...

    Are we in a recession?

    I heard something recently about an inflation bill being passed by the senate. No idea if that will actually help with inflation and or stopping a recession. It'll probably result in more of a recession if anything. Or, what will happen is that this bill only helps temporarily and we'll see...

    Biden signs PACT Act for Veteran support

    Why can't our government just support the troops with anything they need? At least when it comes to medical needs, financial support etc. If I was in the military and was expected to put my life on the line for my country, why too can't they then support me in the future? This is a good step...

    Reject Your Date With One Press of a Button

    Has anyone watched these videos on YouTube? They pair two people together to see if they would be a match, but each video I have watched just results in people pushing the button right away at any sign of losing interest. I don't see how this would result in meeting potential partners, but...

    ‘Obviously a race thing’ – White woman calls police on Black man standing outside his home

    It happens way too damn much. All I hear these days is nonsense like this. I don't think we're ever going to get to a point where we're not looked at like bad people. But, I think times are changing. I feel like more people are more welcoming than usual, and I think it's the work we've all...

    Transgender Regrets Transitioning

    I'm all for people wanting to feel comfortable in their own skin. But I am against it when I hear talk about kids potentially using the likes of hormone blockers and other medication to help them in their transition to being more male or female. It always makes me cringe when I hear arguments...

    Are NFTS a passing fad?

    Would you guys say that NFTS are a passing fad at this point? I feel like it is the case, considering that I don't see this becoming as popular as cryptocurrency. Yeah it's kinda blown up recently, but I just can't see NFTs working for long. Once the government gets their hands in it, I bet...

    Do you think Kim Potter truly feels guilty for what she did?

    Kim Potter is the police officer responsible for the shooting death of Daunte Wright. During her trial, she apologised for what she did and I think she mentioned it wasn't intentional. I'm willing to bet she is remorseful, but not that she killed a man, but that she didn't get away with it...

    Have you ever gone to a small concert for a big artist?

    Nice, that's awesome! I think I heard of Sun Ra before. Pretty sure my dad was into his music some. Will have to ask him about it, he might have some records of his. Seeing a classic rock group like Pink Floyd live would be cool. It's surprising a few of the band members are still alive. Yeah...
