Just lost a friend I've known since HS to heart issues too and another friend since HS to health issues within a week. That shit is so hard to see. My homie was in the hospital for months fighting. Hope your niece is able to pull through.

I’m so sorry about your friend. It’s tough seeing people your age or younger pass. You start to dwell on your own mortality. At least I have. And I just went to go see my niece she’s doing ok but she’s going to have to stay in the hospital like 2 more weeks at least while she recovers and they teach her how to use the device they implanted in her.

Yeah it does make you realize your own mortality. 40 used to seem so far away and now hearing somebody in their 40s pass away is like "damn they wasn't old at all." Definitely wishing the best for your niece

I appreciate you. I went to go see her yesterday and she’s doing ok in pain but she’s ok. They pulled out a couple of tubes and she was able to walk to the elevators and back
 
Got my first full paycheck today.

Lil less than I had calculated, but whatever it's still a lot of money. Paid a grip of bills before I left the crib and for the first time in a long ass time my mortgage and associated shit are being paid early, even broke off the credit cards with some loot.

So... I had to take a peek at my check stub to see why it was so much less than I had anticipated:

Man nothing like the feeling of being down then coming up. That first check hit like a sip of water in the desert.
 
Thanks y'all. This year been on some bullshit, a bruh was really in a fucked up, dark ass place where shit just seemed like there wasn't going to be an end to the fuckery. But it's definitely taken a turn for the better and I'm hoping I can get back to being "me" again.

I think, given the history that we as Black people have, there are specific things that we are now privy to that we weren’t really before, that I think opens the door to the truth of what this society and our place in it. It’s safe to say that we are the number one troll target in the world. When you take into account all of the bad things that can happen to you in this world and then factoring the overwhelming evidence of people hating us, what is the point of getting up out of bed in the morning?


You can face all the overall problems that all people faces in terms of health and situations, but to be privy to how much our women who should and are supposed to be our refuge in a lot of aspects, knowingly talk down about us is hard. Yet whatever support groups we can have, it’s immediately shot down if it’s not like women and how they think. Real gripes are often just marginalized as nothing. Commonalities are often ignored. You know, as black men we get a lot of flack if we come out with songs that talk about women a certain way, our music is because we are just made to be misogynistic, but their music isn’t seen to be hateful. Women often times reduce our discussions and talking points to not being important or irrelevant because they don’t have the answers for a lot of our problems. So in the end? I understand why people end up going down this road. They essentially want Black men to choose to be steppingstones for other people.
