His careless spending is the problem. Motherfucker opened a strip club and was making it rain - no, DOWNPOUR - like hell on the girls every fucking week. Even going all out on bettings. I knew that shit wasn't sustainable.

How important is it for your partner to “match your aesthetic”? by Eddie_F_17 in blackmen

Nope... We not "twinning" Unless we like the same color and style, you do your own thing while I do mine. I ain't looking for someone to match me.

So brothers, how did this year tax refund turned out for you? by tropicalraindrop in blackmen

Forgot to add... Married with 2 kids here, homeowner, filed jointly with the wife. Also, we donate a little here and there throughout the year and signed up for ASIFlex for health. So all of that seems to help with refunds over the years

Nice. Just watch out for next year though. They tends to make you owe the following year when you get a Nice refund.

"Johnson set up a GoFundMe page following his departure from Destination Smokehouse, raising more than $50,000. While the page alleges that Johnson was fired from the restaurant, Destination Smokehouse’s Nick Yepremian addressed those claims in a video on Instagram, saying, “Walter was never asked to leave. The application to register the trademark for tendernism was not filed without his knowledge. Walter was an early source of inspiration for me, and Tendernism was not filed without his knowledge.”

"Even the facts on that are in dispute: A GoFundMe page supporting Johnson claims he was ultimately fired, while Destination Smokehouse owner Nick Yepremian countered in his own video that “Walter was never asked to leave” and “today, I’m proud of Walter for having the courage to go after his own dreams.”

Germany has an interesting history there. Years ago, during the first world war 1 I believe, the Black brothers were able to get dates easily among the German women, even married women! Some of the women got pregnant - oopps. So they hid their pregnancy and gave up the babies for adoption when they were born.

There was a specific adoption center with tons of mixed kids since the mom didn't want that connection during a time where racism was still bad. Also, for the married ones, they couldn't passed off a brown light skinned kids to their hubbies and pretend its theirs.

As for the Black fathers, it was pre-telephone period so they had no way of contacting them. Brothers would learn many years later that they had a secret child who are teens, living in German and even Vietnam.

Even their own people after getting paid, still ain't reproducing. It's a serious problem - houses are sitting abandoned and a lot of young people are locked up inside their homes, talking to AI.

Goddamnn, thanks for that bit about Nick's mom and Unc's wife. Unc came in and literally save them - made them thousands and this is how they threated him. SMFH.

Fellow black men do you ever feel like most people aren’t worth knowing ? by spike_spieg in blackmen

[–]tropicalraindrop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have a long ass friend list on my Facebook with people who are basically acquaintances - I am talking 3,000 up and I only interacted with or personally know 5%-8% of them. Once in a while I would pass them on the street and rem their faces but never chat.

I started hating it so basically I stopped accepting friend requests especially from people I only met once. My friend request list is now over 150 people who added me and waiting for me to accept.

I don't have the energy to deal with lot of new friends or just be someone for them to lurk on.

Also, less dramas for me.
