Fool Me Once...
Once Upon a COVID Dreary Does anyone remember that old boogie-man story about C19? What a whopper! You see kids, back in the year 2019 there were these private-public partnership think tanks (like Event 201, for example) where they war-gamed the entire plandemic with table-top exercises and white papers. Then, a few short months later, they rolled it all out according to their pre-written script.

I got into the then comic strip, “the boondocks” created by Aaron McGruder in my sophomore year of high school. I had all of the comic strip collections treasury. My grandmother would even cut out the strip for me that she saw in the newspaper and put it in an album every time she saw it. Thank you, grandma, Irene! The boondocks centers around three black kids – Huey, Riley, and friend Cesar and what it means to be black in America as seen through their eyes. Huey, is the main character, named after civil rights activist Huey P Newton.

Nicholas BishopPublished 5 months ago in The SwampIs It Racist to Not Like Porn With a Different Ethnicity in Lead
Introduction To start off with, let’s all just agree to be honest about one thing. Nearly everyone watches porn, regardless of age, race, sexuality, or gender… we all enjoy watching porn, at least on occasion. I’m aware the entire population does not watch porn, but let’s at least agree that the vast majority of us do. There is no shame in it at all. As long as you keep it under control and it doesn’t interfere with your actual life and relationships, you should be fine. It’s fantasy and it is useful, even if it is only watched for the short or not-so-short time that you need to get certain things done. There, now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, let’s dive deeper into the topic we are here to discuss.

Introduction This is not a rant against good private enterprise, but it is NOT a public service, despite many politicians telling us that certain ones are.

We all remember COP27 in Glasgow. Many fine words, to tackle, climate change, but little else. We remember, Boris, fast asleep, at the conference.

I’m not someone who generally approves of using sport for political ends, believing friendly competition is perhaps the best tool we possess to unite people from different cultures and backgrounds… but as more and more money has come into play during my lifetime even the world of sport has become tainted by greed and avarice.
