I visited my my dad's sister One of the sisters and but I like I said, I want to visit some other family members when I get a chance here So that's what I've been focusing on. What else what else what else work has been so Busy and I don't really like to talk a lot about my work because I want to keep things, you know personal here um On that type of level, but it's been busy Um, if those you don't know I work in education. I've been working from home going on 11 years now 11 or 10 years They're a long time I often take on Projects a little contract jobs just for supplemental income. I'm doing something for the city of fresco really like the bat mouth other Organizations or companies because that's just not a good look and I need that money to come in Well, one of the things I've been doing you guys every morning or I tried to do every morning. I say this Positive affirmation is mantra or whatever. Seriously. I'm so grateful and thankful to have multiple streams of income Coming in on a continuous basis Now what I added to that is I'm so grateful that I'm able to pay down my debt Within two years you got to be very specific because I was saying that I'm so grateful and happy Um, so grateful and thankful excuse me to have multiple streams of income coming on a continuous basis when I told you Speaking that into existing and not only speaking but believing in it because um any way you guys jay b is doing good He's doing real good. He's going through changes girl Attitude for days like a serious attitude and I'm like you need to get it together Um, I tried to really talk to my child, which is something that I didn't grow up having and that's not you know, I'm not blaming my parents for that That just didn't know any better, you know, so when something is going on with jay b I talked to him. I want to get to the bottom of it. Oftentimes. He's like, I don't want to talk You won't understand, you know, you won't understand Um, and but I want to have that open Communication with him because I know that soon. He's really not going to want to talk, you know Once he starts scoring through puberty and all of that Um, but that's it. You guys it's high school is starting soon. What is this old pies? girl My mama gave me My all of my old pics of me in high school. Yeah, I was fluffy when I was in high school I don't want to show y'all but just to let y'all know I was of course shorter because I actually grew up when I went to college because I went to college as a teen um Sucks, uh, I applied when I was 16. I went on 17 17. I went on with 17. So anyway And I was fluffy as hell. Like I think I was 200 and maybe five feet Woo child. So my mama took it upon herself to give me all of my old pictures and I'm like, what What do I need this for these type of memories if she starts laughing? Maybe you want to show alex. Let me tell you something alex would never see this shit I didn't sell her that you know the s word but I said alex would matter of fact I got those pictures hidden behind my bookshelf. He would never know that I have been fine I have not been fine. I've been fine all my life. That's all you need to know alex That's my husband. Like oh, that's what I call him alex. I've been fine all my life He ain't never gonna see those goofy badass pictures one of my one of the pictures of my glasses looking like this Are you like, come on YouTube first off But it's real easy to sit behind your computer Your keyboard what we call them keyboard warriors and talk a bunch of nonsense And you look like all my life. I have to fight You got a big wide bag like ninja turtles or some You walking around with a damn ninja turtle bag A damn turtle bag, but you want to talk about the reason what this is what I'm getting to I saw on It's just a couple of youtube videos where people were actually reacting to Some hate comments that Vanessa Williams and what is her name life scan from martin Tisha Campbell Basically saying why how you look all and these are people commenting on their social media pages Like wow, what's wrong with her skin? What's wrong with her neck? Both of those women are over 50. I think Vanessa Williams Williams is over 60. She's not god forgive me. She's not but You expect women to look That young all their life. First of all, I don't think neither one of them look bad to begin with They don't um They look their age That's what older people not just women older people are supposed to age like that nothing wrong with it Absolutely nothing wrong with either one of them and I've seen a picture of them Yes, her skin is kind. She's older. What do you expect y'all? I just can't deal with it. I really can um Besides that i'm still on my Yeah, I don't know. I love me some true crime. I try to watch if I love me some true crime It just amazes me how many people Show up to how don't y'all how many people show up to It just amazes me how many people sit there and talk to You know the detectives without A lawyer One of the things they even say when they when they are reading you your Miranda writes They literally say You have a right to be silent. You have a right to a lawyer. Hello That means shut your ass up and ask for a lawyer and boom is done They build their case on the crap you splits you talking about doing the investigation because you think that You smart and you ain't gonna get caught No, so one of the things I do I don't know if I said this before one of the things that I do with jay b specifically since he is a young brown boy Is I test him with good cop bad cop? I just roll up on him and be like hey Um, thank you for coming down to the you know the office. We understand that You and your friend Jerome were at the pig little wiggly Saturday night And we want to ask you about the shooting there Jayby's looking at me like and he's like he starts laughing. He's like I want I want to I want a lawyer I said look here son Your friend Jerome is already talking This is your only chance to clear your name. You need to tell a gesture This is the reason why I do this because some cops even though they get told even though the Person that they're questioning says I want to speak to a lawyer. Some of them still keep talking Well, your friend is over there already talking don't you want to tell your hat you want to tell your story We saw you on surveillance I want to speak to a lawyer You want a hamburger you hungry you've been up here before I know you've been waiting for about an hour You want you want a burger? I don't want to speak to a lawyer. I have trained most adults don't even know this Once you say those words I want a lawyer. I want to speak to a lawyer even if it's a public defendant with your hands probably gonna get That's okay. Any of you cut But a lot of people don't know that they have no idea Um So I really But anyway, just watching those true crimes On youtube just reminds me of that that all these people just talking just blatantly just talking It's like you don't have to say anything. So I didn't know if I was going to talk about this But I am because it's my channel and I could do what I want on my channel to a certain degree so I'm not rolling my eyes, but I am I'm seeing yet again a wave of young women. They're going back to relaxers and I'm like girl Did you not hear the message if you are a loved one has used any of these hair relaxers and have suffered from fibroids a bearing cancer breast cancer, please call and say you're not hearing that Are you still And it's not like people that have been relaxed. I mean excuse me natural for a couple of years He's a woman have been you know natural for eight ten thirteen years And I know that you guys gonna say, you know, it's it's just hair. They can do whatever they want Is not just hair when what you are applying to let me just say this I agree to a certain extent However, it's not just hair when what you are applying to your hair can ultimately affect the future you Take that into consideration. I think a lot of The youtubers that I'm seeing they're fairly young meaning they're in their 20s early 30s And they're not thinking about their 40s and 50s, baby. Let me tell you something I have no desire to go back to relaxers Um, and what I'm finding some of the comments that I see from other people that are commenting on these videos You can do whatever you want, but I'm gonna give you all some information on why it is so dangerous And just to just to think about this before you decide to go there and if after I tell you this and you're like, yeah, that's whatever do you I think Well, at least from what I've seen in the comments is that the number one reason is that their natural hair is so much work Their natural hair is more work. Their hair is not growing. Their hair is breaking off I find that women that are having those issues are either not using the right Products for their hair or their regimen is way off, which is still a part of the Products is part of their regimen. The regimen is off I'm having a hard time trying to understand that because there is so much information out there for people And perhaps that is a problem in itself is that and I've said this before It's over saturated with information. It's over saturated with products. But let me tell you something All you need is to know how to really cleanse your hair Properly moisturize your hair and style your hair neatly You don't have to have a banging twist style or all that you can wear twists like I do I'm gonna get to that in a minute The reason why I think this is problematic and it just breaks my heart to see so many young women doing this is because their hair relaxers have what is called estrogen disruptors This is one of the reasons why the main reason why it is causing a disturbance in your estrogen and your hormone your your normal hormones Are being disrupted by using these products. Well, there's a lot of products that I've asked you absolutely But when you are using a product that is going directly on your hair So your pores may be open they're going to be open anyway once you apply that water and then now the product with Hunts of ingredients hormone ingredients. So Not only that you guys but they don't know why meaning the scientists and the medical doctors and all that cancers autoimmune diseases Effect that's more aggressively and I've always heard this even from my own doctors because I have some issues I'm okay. I'm okay now but I always get told make sure you take your medicine make sure you go to the doctors because Of yada yada and I get it but not only that but we know that black people in general or As far as healthcare we are disproportionately not treated the same as white women Hispanics whatever it may be. This is one of the reasons why Um, pregnant women black women, excuse me have a high morality rate Have a high death rate when they're going to the hospital a lot of them are dying, you know what I mean So that is still the same case when it comes to Cancers and treating the cancer. So not only is it affecting you aggressively, but you're not going to get the same type of care This is what I'm trying to tell you So I'm going to say this also when it comes to perms. So you know that smell that you y'all remember that smell You smell when you perm the hair. That's a toxin floating in the air I read an actual paper where it stated that when you are applying that perm You're supposed to be more, you know, those cheap ass, you know gloves Wear those and the person that is applying the perm is supposed to wear protective goggles Because there has been instances of people having asthma development eczema allergies That's all on the same thing breathing issues along From inhaling the toxins that are floating around putting perms on their hair make a S educated and wise decision I get that dealing with your natural hair isn't easy and it's a lot of work But going to go get screenings for cancer going through chemo therapy getting your medication I'm saying you guys is that we have to make wise decisions because right now it may be easier But it's just what's easier and what's more convenient is not the best that's for your overall health That's all I'm saying you can take this information, but like girl, whatever. I'm gonna go ahead and get my um My african pride or african's best Do what you gotta do, but just know that you're risking it every time you do it. So that's all I'm gonna say Okay, moving on What I'm watching on tv. Let me tell you something from Why I tell you this was so It was so amazing you that I enjoyed it every everything This was to me Let me tell you what what I felt like this was the series lost mixed with The walking dead mixed with What was that series wayward pines were those things creatures and they were on a lot all of that It was awesome and it has the little um not little the nerdy-ish like black guy on from he has to dress You know when I'm talking about he also played in the matrix. I love him. I like him. I really do like him And I think he was actually in lost wasn't he so it's so mysterious. It's so awesome What did you watch it at Vivian? Okay, sorry So I was watching this on amazon prime and I paid for it girl and then I stopped it It was just two seasons. They're having a third season come out and I absolutely enjoyed it It's basically surrounding about a group of people that are in this town There are some mysterious things going on. There's like spoiler. There's portals There's these beings I don't know what they are but they they they're bad and so these people are Almost stuck in a loop meaning the town's people and they're stuck in this town and they can't get out I can't wait for season three. I really can't it's it's just so interesting to see the take on this What else what else what else? Oh, I got a recommendation to watch death become so let me tell you something I love that movie with mill street and goldie hind And bruce willis poor bruce willis Oh, y'all poor bruce willis. I'm just remembering that he has frontal dementia and there's somebody else that has dementia Oh, you guys the guy that does um, I don't know his name But he he will always come on the news or the daytime shows talk shows with his animals Y'all he has he that has dementia or Alzheimer's and he literally has forgotten his family. Um, I'm gonna get you I'm so silly. I'm gonna get you suckers on my watch list on hulu. Ciao I don't know my my parents were young. There were so Many that's almost like a cult classic in the african-american community community with the waning brothers You had, um, isaac haze. You have that football player um, the lights get girl from What is she when I can't remember child when the waning sister was singing when his things come marching in at the jazz club I that that is absolutely hilarious. There's so many cameos. You have chris rock when he was young and very skinny Um, and it also so I'm gonna watch that too I rewatch megan. Let me tell you something Chucky ain't got shit on megan when megan came into the house and took off those glasses and was like, okay What's going on? I was like, all right megan come through Um, watching megan watch it again. I mean then I watched another movie with Jake I'm gonna butcher his last name. He has to pretty eyes dark hair. He played in dunny darko jake glennard And the the black guy that played in candy man. I forgot his name too. I'm gonna put it below Yeah, I never had nobody's name. So I watched the movie called ambulance. It was good action thriller Bank heist gone wrong. You already know what's gonna happen. Somebody's gonna die. Somebody's gonna die, but it was good I watched carry the original carry with turnt up nose carry fissure Um, this is funny that the movie was called carry carry fishy plays in it, but anyway Little child I watch what's love got to do with it And it's on What station is it on? It's on hulu There's a lot of good movies and stuff on hulu And so, you know when we first came out a couple of us unless you really went through something like that It was considered funny because we knew or we heard about how ike was And how he treated tina and the only reason why I watched it is because I just wanted to go through And watch it again especially after the death of Tina Turner, which Hold on y'all this hair. I didn't realize that she stayed and squits on all this time And she kind of what kind not even kind of She basically broke off I don't know. I don't necessarily want to say communication, but she kind of separated herself from her family Um I don't know the real reasons behind that but she did I'm back to watching The yellow jacket heifers. Let me tell you something I'm on season two. I think I'm on episode four and Christina Richie Is a whole bag of craziness like but she's the type of crazy that that you can admire One of the things that she said in season one was that there is actually A product that you can use That will help you clean up blood to where the luminal doesn't detect it and I'm like really So I don't even know how accurate that is. I'm pretty sure some of it has some truth to it but It's really difficult to get blood up even even with this supposed different um product but It's a really really really good series again It's yellow jackets on hulu But it's not just because of the people that are portraying the characters. It's the character development itself So yeah, I'm watching that. Um, there was another series. I started to watch. Oh god picky blinders I don't know picky blinders. I may have to start over. Um, this is the last Season that I'm on the same thing with the witcher Which the witcher has season three out on Netflix and I just can't get into it And I honestly think it's because that actor I found out that that actor had a thing for really really young women and that totally turned me off Like I think one of his girlfriends was literally like a teenager and he was damn near 35 years old and he's fine as hell But that was just a big turnoff of me. Also. I couldn't really get into it. So anyway um I'm gonna go ahead and watch it. But y'all that is it. I'm just yapping the way what that makes sense So that is that you guys I want to continue with my hair But thank you for watching. Take care. Bye
