    Online Business Ideas For 2022?

    She runs it all online? That is interesting. I mean there will always be a desire for coffee. Millions drink it daily. That was a smart business move. I don't know enough about coffee though but I like the concept of going into a market that is well established and putting your own spin on it...

    Habits that would put you off from dating someone?

    I think we all have those turn-offs that signal something in our brains that makes us think "hell no" when someone we thought was attractive does something not up to our standards. In terms of bad habits or general habits you don't like, what are some that would put you off from dating someone...

    Are you open to new brands?

    Oh damn, I missed it LOL I was too busy working and dealing with family drama I had no idea 12 dropped. I am really hoping they get something going. Like I want a phone that is Linux powered but still has the good features of a flagship. I know the apps will be limited but that is fine. I...

    Where do you think this metaverse is going to lead?

    Did you see someone is already claiming sexual harassment in the metaverse? This stuff makes me laugh. People are going to kill it before it even becomes a thing and I will cheer its death on. I don't want some pasty lizard man in charge of anything I do online.

    Pfizer CEO Says FDA Approved Pill That Contains Microchip

    If you can't question what they are doing, it is straight propaganda. They want us lining up like farm animals. The government that says they should be trusted is the same government that ran experiments on black Americans for YEARS without their knowledge. You think they stopped just cause they...

    How do you handle not having the same taste?

    I have a particular taste and in most cases, it doesn't clash with a man's so I never really had an issue here. I am more concerned about color matching. For me, if things don't match it is an eyesore. I like the idea of just allowing each person to have their own rooms. Make a compromise if you...

    white holidays

    That is the thing, debt. We are born into debt and most of us die in debt passing it on to our kids. They make it a system to use and abuse people through finances and it doesn't hit anyone harder in the US than a black American. I don't know how you fix this though. More people need to wake up...

    Twitter permanently suspends Marjorie Taylor Greene’s personal account

    I think most everyday people either don't know it exists to the extent it does or they openly dispute it themselves cause they know it is wrong. It is always those fringe nutjob groups we have to worry about the most and social media has made it easier for them to gather and do harm. As I said...

    white holidays

    It is all corporatism laced with "good feelings". If I celebrate any holiday, I make it about family and we do it our own way. I don't know how people fall for it year after year and go into debt because these old white farts want people spending their hard-earned money just because they...

    Twitter permanently suspends Marjorie Taylor Greene’s personal account

    It forms echo chambers which allows more of them to come together and repeat their ideas and get more people listening to them. If they get banned off Twitter, they go to another platform, one that is more often than not going to be riddled with even more racists (ones more likely to actually...

    Are you open to new brands?

    I feel like I am going to have to wait another 2 or maybe 3 years before a solid Linux-powered phone is an option. That is fine, I will wait but I would like to get a new phone. I am currently on the fence with it though. I don't need a new-new one. I am looking at getting maybe an s10+ since it...

    Where do you think this metaverse is going to lead?

    Are you talking about NFTs or the metaverse in general? I still can't get behind NFTs but I can understand their value in some circumstances. I don't see much value at all in the metaverse, especially not from the people in charge of it.

    Any artist in need of a producer

    What are you using to make your beats? I actually wanted to attempt to get into this myself. Not for any other reason than to just make music. I was looking into software options that don't require too expensive of a setup.

    How hard do you think it is to learn the violin as an adult?

    Yeah, it is heavily reliant on finger placement and getting a feel for the cords. There is a good chance I will start playing and give up after a few weeks but I wanted to at least give it a try. I used to play the piano decently.

    You ever known someone who played Strip Poker?

    Maybe I am wrong but is this like a made-up game or something? The only time I have ever seen it has been in TV shows and movies. I have never known anyone to have actually played it IRL and not it is bothering me. LOL Like does this game even exist in the real world? 90% of the time as well it...

    Know anyone who married just for the benefits that come with it?

    We had someone at the clinic recently who talked about this with me. She said that her friend married her so she could have good health insurance since she needed a lot of medical treatment. He didn't plan on getting married anyway so he was fine with helping her out. It is a shame people need...

    Rabies

    Poor thing! I got bit by a squirrel when I was a kid. I think I was 5 or 6. Something was wrong with it and I wanted to help it. I had to get a session of painful rabies shots in my behind after that. LOL You have to get treated right away or it will kill you or the infected animal. The...

    Twitter permanently suspends Marjorie Taylor Greene’s personal account

    I don't agree with this. I don't like that they can censor people just because they don't agree with them. Racists need to be on the platform so we can see who they are and where they are at. We need to be able to call them out on their BS. If places like Twitter continue to censor people, ban...

    "We, Chinese People, Deserve Protection From The Contamination Of Blackness"

    There are a lot of hate crimes targeted at Chinese/Asian people in NYC and other major cities in the US. They are often beaten within an inch of their life or killed. Almost always older folks, even women and it is being done by some thugs who happen to be black. I think this paints a picture in...

    When I Hear Flip Flops

    If I tried that with the dog we had growing up, my face would have got torn off! LOL I am shocked the dog handled that so well. In my experience, dogs don't like costumes or masks.
