    Negro league

    Well yeah, there are a lot of white liberals who virtue signal and use black sports players, actors, etc. for "emotional gain" kind of like going to church on Sunday and expecting a pat on the back. Why not try and capitalize off it? I mean so long as what is made is black run and owned, f em...

    Love Lost

    This stuff is hard for me to watch. Not because I can't sympathize, but because I sympathize too much. It hurts to see people hurting over loss. Hell, I will cry if I see an animal mourning his or her loss. I saw a friend's cat go through this. Her other cat died suddenly and the poor thing...

    The Hidden Metric on Black People’s Performance Reviews

    They have a feminine air to them, I have seen it. Very few feel strong to me. And you are spot on with the HR positions. They won't let me hold the desk at work probably cause I am not the right mold for them.

    Fresh and Fit Talk About Not Wanting to Date Shaniquas

    I heard about them, never looking into them in great detail but they are clearly being influenced by a white fanbase who doesn't want them to be with black women, for whatever reason. They act like all black women are the same and they use those clear white influenced stereotypes to put them in...

    The Hidden Metric on Black People’s Performance Reviews

    You would think that they would want someone in a higher position that is able to set aside office relationships to get the job done... But no, they want people they know they can control. You ever notice how a lot of higher-up positions are legit held by white men who you know would cheat on...

    Otter Handling His Business

    LOL I bet he didn't know he was on camera! I always thought these guys were cute. They are like aquatic foxes mixed with cats or something. Anything that remotely resembles a cat in look or play always gets my heart. So cute!

    The Hidden Metric on Black People’s Performance Reviews

    I still find it funny how white people are complaining about being traced, tracked, and databased today when black people in America have been on these kinds of books for decades. I make a point to never talk politics or religion at work cause I know there are people who will use anything I...

    Viral images show people of color as anti-Asian perpetrators. That misses the big picture.

    Going to check this out later when I get home from work. Thanks for the heads up on this. I do prefer to watch couples when it comes to stuff like this and honestly, it can be a struggle to find farming content for and by black individuals online. I could be looking in the wrong places. I only...

    Would you ever consider micro-farming?

    It is hard to manage time for stuff like this so it does help to have a partner who is invested where you aren't so you can have the best of both worlds. It is a shame more younger people aren't getting into agriculture and working with their hands though.

    Negro league

    I was way too young to know about this. I will have to look into it more. What I said was in reference to how these black men (and women) are idolized and valued by not only members of the black community, but even by white people. Maybe this black league came too soon?

    Do You Eat And Make Mexican Food?

    There are a lot of people in America who think Taco Bell is Mexican food. I even met a younger Mexcian girl who believe this. I told her that her family would be ashamed of her LOL

    Viral images show people of color as anti-Asian perpetrators. That misses the big picture.

    I struggle with either analyzing too much or not enough, I am aware of my faults. And you are 100% correct. They serve no real value anymore outside of maybe checking sports scores or the weather.

    What little things in life bring you joy?

    I am trying to be more positive this year as a whole not only in my life but within my worldview. So I am making an effort to be more thankful, grateful, and just focusing on the little things in life that bring me pleasure, joy, and peace. I think we can all use a few moments a day to reflect...

    Negro league

    I often wonder about sports in general in America. Most of them, their top athletes are black men and women. I know back in the day, most teams were whiter than the first snow of the season but looking around now, we can clearly see who has more value in sports. I am thankful for what MLK did...

    Do You Eat And Make Mexican Food?

    I mean, I eat at Chipotle but that is about as far as I go with it. It is funny to think about how people do tacos differently in different areas, depending on who is making them as well. I always thought adding cheese and lettuce was just the "Americanized" version. Just like Chinese joints do...

    Viral images show people of color as anti-Asian perpetrators. That misses the big picture.

    What can I say, I fell for the manipulation. I can admit I was wrong here. I apologize for that. It is no secret hate crimes against black people in America are the highest year after year. The focus misled me, clearly. This is why I hate the media. They lie. My judgment gets clouded cause I...

    Do you think white women are glamorizing black men?

    You notice how a lot of commercials and ads are promoting mixed couples where the man is black and the woman is white? I have to assume this is on purpose to further the divide between black women and black men. Thankfully more people are waking up to it. Successful mixed-race couples are rare...

    Would you ever consider micro-farming?

    That is a good thing to consider. Crops take a LONG time to produce and they don't last. I think back to Genesis with this how Adam's curse from God dealt with crops and harvest. Food was never meant to be this difficult to come by. But yeah, learning how to can, fermentate, and freeze your...

    Would you ever consider micro-farming?

    You ever see those setups that use aquariums for indoor farming of herbs and other small veg? I was watching videos on that last year and I couldn't believe something like that could work but it does. The fish provided a balanced and nutrient-rich soil that fed the plants beautifully without the...

    Would Tom Brady have had success if he started on another team?

    I don't think so. From what I remember when I used to watch the NFL, he was only as gifted as the men around him. A lot of his credit, his skill, etc. comes from having a great team and a leveled coach. I think this is the case for most QBs though. They all have skill but they seldom get to...
