An early good morning. I went to sleep halfway in that long book of an article about Cornel West. Being a slow reader, it is taking me longer than usual to finish.

......

As a young immigrant cat on the eastside, the new NWA movie coming out looks interesting.

It's my fault for looking at Facebook. But spread the word, people.

If you see something upsetting to you (death of a young person, 15 years old, drive by in NJ), don't ask where are the people who should be protesting in the street. It's some weird logic that both doesn't do your anger/grief/whatever justice and delegitimizes others who actually protest.

Protest is needed. Your lazy response is not. If you want a certain response, go out and do it yourself. Don't blame others for not having your response. It's some weird logic to try and blame others for not having your response.

There is no protest committee. No board that decided on what issues to protest. People protest the death of black people by police because we expect better. This is why we don't need to have this 'talk' about black on black crime.

If he was just upset with him, then that'd be fine, his problem is that he feels personally slighted and his whole anti-Obama campaign has just sounded like the ramblings of a bitter old man.

This. He can criticize Obama without acting like a Republican candidate.

It does look that way but you hear no sound of glass. Maybe he tried to get behind the wall once he realized the shockwave was still coming.

With the dust and the edit, it looked like it.

Back to the 'what the hell is wrong with Chip Kelly' part of the cycle. Being a Philly sports fan is rough these past few years. I think we are past rooting for horses and will take a state high school championship right now.

And I moved to Atlanta. So I can't even squicken to a good team.

Dat moment in life you mature and realize you need to budget and can't do every single thing you want to do.

Welcome to the rest of your life..


Welcome to adulthood.


Ha! Yeah, I am 40+ and always had jobs that paid so ridiculously well that I could haphazardly spend and manage to save without really budgeting. Now after my divorce and getting a job that doesn't pay nearly what I used to make thanks to a lay off, my income has been drastically cut. The bills don't seem to care though.

I am making it, but the money I had for fun has dropped considerably. No more trips to the sports bar just to hang out with buddies. No more spur of the moment trips. Every dollar has to be budgeted now. Now if I had been doing that all along...can't turn back the clock now.
 
I'm only 25 and I'm already learning that hard lesson. Student loans, man. If I didn't have a decent job, I'd be in serious trouble.


Today has been rough. That Rekia Boyd verdict and the arrests that followed are just infuriating me. I can barely concentrate at work.
 
Shit, that's been me since I've been out the womb. Never had enough money to do much of anything. Right now, just have no money period. I'm tired of being broke, but at least I'm not in the hood anymore. Fuck rats, roaches, 12, toxic waste, and burglaries.

Just read that Bobbi Kristina Brown has opened her eyes, but that the quality of her life won't be known for years to come.


Honestly if anything like this were to happen I'd rather the plug be pulled on me.

I read that earlier today, them two families...i get they grieving but really tho, its a little concerning the way that shit is being handled smh.
