  • New Idea/Nouvelle idée/ Nueva idea/Creole/

    I would like to apologize for not implementing this idea earlier, I am going to attempt (in the future) to post in English, French, and Spanish.

    This idea was prompted by one of my 6th graders, Stanley.  Stanley spoke very little English he was Haitian.  My heart went out to him, I did not speak the  language, and my daughter does not speak the language – I have some friends that do.  I called my friend GJP (I didn’t ask his permission so I’m using random letters) and told GJP what the assignment was and he graciously translated it for Stanley.  Stanley would sometimes seek me out if he needed help translating…So I will attempt to post in Spanish and French until I find a Creole translation program.

     

    Feel free to point out any errors.

    Me gustaría disculparme por no aplicar esta idea antes, voy a intentar (en el futuro) publicar en español, francés e inglés.
    Esta idea fue impulsada por uno de mis alumnos de sexto grado, Stanley. Stanley hablaba muy poco inglés que era haitiano. Mi corazón se le apuntó, no hablé el idioma, y mi hija no habla el idioma. Tengo algunos amigos que lo hacen. Llaví a mi amigo GJP (no le pedí su permiso, así que estoy usando cartas al azar) y le dije a GJP cuál era la tarea y él geniosamente la tradujo para Stanley. Stanley a veces me buscaba si necesitaba ayuda para traducir… Así que intentaré publicar en español y francés hasta que encuentre un programa de traducción criolla.

     

    Siéntase libre de señalar cualquier error.

    mi wud like fi apologize fi nuh implementing dis idea earlier, mi a guh attempt (in di future) tuh post inna english, french, a spanish.this idea did prompted by one of mi 6th graders, stanley. stanley speak very likkle hail him did haitian. mi heart guh out tuh him, mi nuh speak di language, a mi dawta nuh speak di language – mi ave sum friends dat do. mi call mi bredren gjp (i didn’t aks fi him permission suh i’m using random letters) a tell gjp wah di assignment did a him graciously translated it fi stanley. stanley wud sometimes seek mi out eff him need help translating…so mi wi attempt tuh post inna spanish a french til mi find a creole translation program.feel free tuh point out any errors.

     

    Je voudrais m’excuser de ne pas mettre en œuvre cette idée plus tôt, je vais tenter (à l’avenir) de poster en anglais, en français et en espagnol.
    Cette idée a été provoquée par l’un de mes élèves de 6e année, Stanley. Stanley parlait très peu d’anglais, il était en Haiti. Mon cœur est allé vers lui, je n’ai pas parlé la langue, et ma fille ne parle pas la langue – j’ai des amis qui le font. J’ai appelé mon ami GJP (je n’ai pas demandé sa permission donc j’utilise des lettres aléatoires) et j’ai dit à GJP quelle était la mission et il l’a gracieusement traduite pour Stanley. Stanley me chercherait parfois s’il avait besoin d’aide pour traduire… J’essaierai donc de poster en espagnol et en français jusqu’à ce que je trouve un programme de traduction créole.

     

    N’hésitez pas à signaler les erreurs.

  • On This Day – 040423

    As I sit here watching @CNN waiting to hear the charges against the former president Donald Trump there are a few things #ImConcernedAbout:

    1. Are the charges only about the transfer of funds to Stormy;
    2. Will the children of the GOP jump out from #ConcreteJungle when the charges are read and start their circus – insurrection.2;
    3. I noticed Margarie and Kevin have been missing in action for what seems like the same amount of time – I mean we all know his wife filed for divorce after he said , “…I love you and I always will..” after we were held hostage watching the 15 rounds of voting – while with each vote he sold a piece of the Senate and House to the highest bidder:
    4. Another thing, Desantis, Marjorie, Boebart, and Gaetz – have either the worst staff OR they are deliberately working hard at making them look, appear and sound unintelligent. (A) the first time I heard about Desantis going after Disney – I thought to myself, nooo not Micke -3 minutes of searching – I thought, no no no he may not want to pursue Mickey Floridians will be awfully angry when they find out they will be responsible for those taxes. I ask myself was he power tripping, refusing to listen to his staff who had performed due diligence and informed him about the taxes and exorbitant cost to Floridians if there was a fire on the FAR END of Disney.

    GUNS SCHOOL SHOOTINGS

    1. DeSantis has allowed anyone who can walk into a gun shop with an identification card and purchase a gun. Florida also has that protective law known as “Stand your ground” which applies in situations in which a person has a clear reason to believe he or she is about to be the victim of serious violence.
    2. House of Representatives want to expel Justin

  • When You Haven’t Healed From Trauma

    Mo’Nique claimed that her reposting the years-old video wasn’t retraumatizing Hughley’s daughter, saying that even if Hughley did apologize (which it seems like he has, or at the very least exhibited contrition in the video), it “wouldn’t erase the trauma.”

    But many people, including many of her fans, have called her out for potentially retraumatizing Hughley’s daughter by using her trauma just to get back at Hughley for a supposed incorrect contract agreement and for a question one of his co-hosts her when she was on his radio show years ago.

    Hughley’s eldest daughter, Ryan Nicole Shepard, has since commented herself on the matter, writing how Mo’Nique’s decision to repost the video shows her character.

    #DEI Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

    Malcolm X shared Killmonger’s (Marvel Comics) concerns about black inequality, by the time he was killed, he had come to realize that allies for the cause of liberation and equality exist across racial lines.

    When did the governor of Florida become and education specialist – considering the book he wrote received some of the worst reviews, below are a few examples of the

    Why on earth is Desantis still promoting CRT in K-12 when (1) it’s not taught and (2) they would not understand the meat of CRT, or is it FEAR?

    What else you ask thats a good question. A bill concerning vouchers for private schools was a priority of Republican House Speaker Paul Renner, and it was expedited through the GOP-dominated state Legislature. On Monday, Renner said the new law will allow parents to send children to alternative schools where their values and faith are respected, referencing “some of the craziness that happens in our K-12 schools.”

    Florida began its voucher program to help parents pay for private schools more than two decades ago under Republican Gov. Jeb Bush and has passed several laws to expand it over the next three Republican administrations. DeSantis two years ago signed a bill raising income levels to receive vouchers to 375% of the federal poverty level. DeSantis on Monday said 1.3 million children in Florida attend a school chosen by parents.

    Students Rejected by DEI Speak Out

    The first student – Mr. Darryl Boyer [an up-and-coming political activist from Palm Coast] law student who would like us to believe he was harrassed by members of the organization he participated in called Student Government because as he states they thought he was a Democrat. an up-and-coming political activist from Palm Coast. Boyer recently launched Perspective PAC, a political action committee aimed at increasing diversity within Republican politics.

    The second student – Ms. Ali – an Engineer stedent – belives she was rejected by Diversity Equity & Inclusion because again her consertive believes, pardon me – she said, “…openly conservative…”. She tried to appeal as a Hispanic, first member of her family to attend college option

    CRT

    Famous for being one of the first tenured African-American professors at Harvard Law School, Derrick Bell was a popular civil rights activist in the 1970s. While he is best known for his activism at Harvard, Bell is also closely associated with the critical race theory (CRT). In fact, he is considered to be a pioneer in the field.

    In 2020, Ron DeSantis dubbed the education govenor, it took him 3 years to poke the bear – determined to stop (no not the steal) but stop the delivery of the truth of the US history. He’s want to banish the idea of “Woke “HB7, commonly known as the Stop Woke Act, is a law that amends the Florida Civil Rights Act to make it unlawful for employers to host mandatory employee trainings that promote certain concepts related to discrimination, diversity, equity, and inclusion.

    WOKE

    Woke really started around the early 1960s and ’70s with the Black Power movement and civil rights issues of the time. It wasn’t just called woke, it was called consciousness (the state of being WOKE).

    Woke is a slang term that is easing into the mainstream from some varieties of a dialect called African American Vernacular English (sometimes called AAVE). In AAVE, awake is often rendered as woke, as in, “I was sleeping, but now I’m woke.

    Work originally meant one had opened their eyes and minds to the injustice and hidden racism; presently has been reduced to a political slur, a weapon used by the less educated members of the #GOP.

    When Diversity Inclusion Does Not Work

    1. When it’s mandatory. Mandatory diversity and inclusion training can net an immediate and negative response. When it’s mandatory, it can seem punitive, with a reaction of “someone did something wrong and now we all have to sit through this.” If training is required in response to a problem you may already be behind the eight-ball where employee opinion is concerned. The majority of people don’t see themselves as biased and immediately become vehemently defensive if they’re accused of being so. Similarly, when it’s clearly being offered as a response to an incident, attendees can become extremely defensive. Some may even cling more strongly to their biases. Research has overwhelmingly shown negative messaging in D&I training not only doesn’t help, but it may also set inclusion efforts back. Social scientists have also found, over a number of years, that people naturally tend to rebel against enforced rules.
    2. When it’s too focused on the law. Another mistake businesses make when implementing D&I programs is focusing on a legal viewpoint as opposed to an empathetic and ethical viewpoint. When employees perceive the training as an attempt to stay compliant and simply check off a box, they will usually be more resistant to the teachings. If a business is not genuine in its reasons for offering the training, it will be harder for employees to genuinely absorb the information.
    3. When it’s offered to (or required for) a limited group. Dobbins’ research suggests that when training is only offered to one group in the office, it’s much less effective. Training only your management team may seem like a good (and cost-efficient) idea, but employees don’t like being left out. Furthermore, discrimination and biases don’t solely occur at a managerial level. To be effective with training, it should be accessible and encouraged for all

    When Diversity Inclusion Works

    At its best, diversity and inclusion training builds comfort with a wider range of perspectives and opinions. It helps employees shape more rewarding relationships with peers, colleagues, and customers. Allowing yourself to be challenged and inspired by the ideas and perspectives of others makes for a more impactful day. We live in a global society, why not benefit as much as you can from all it has to offer?

    Closing

    Words are created from a particular cultural context, one can keep using the word, but whatever your political position that’s attached to the idea of “woke” [1] are you able to sufficiently articulate whatever your political stances are? [2] Can you demonstrate that you have some understanding? [3] because you can’t just put anything out there without actually providing some simblance that you understand deductive and inductive reasoning to be able to articulate and prove your point.

    No matter what your color, ethnicity, educational level, He can and will open doors for which you are not qualified, if it’s His will!

  • Who Is This Man – the Bi-sexual Sociopath.1

    Who Is This Man – the Bi-sexual Sociopath.1

    What Kind Monster Is He?

    Sociopaths’ sexual traits are hard to fathom. The matrix of any normal romantic relationship is the physical expression of love. The thing is, in these situations, from their side of it, love’s got nothing to do with it.

    If you’ve been in it you’ve seen that people without a conscious and a heart aren’t having loving relationships that play out well or nicely.

    He seems to be all that you wanted, but he wont commit. His behavior towards you feels and looks like a monogmous relationship. He repeated states he is not ready for a relationship – he may even tell you, that he would like to be in one with you, but he’s afraid he can’t stop cheating.

    Does he take regular male only ski trips and male only trips to Brazil or intermittent trips with only male college mates?

    Have you experienced the horror and humiliation of finding out he’s bi-sexual after he walks out of your life as if he never knew you?

    Are you finding it difficult to move on?

    Overall though, it appears that bisexual men are simply viewed as gay men. There is no space for experimentation or fluidity, and so many men who are bisexual simply don’t come out as such because of our rigid ideas about manhood and, thus, male sexuality.

    It seems that bisexuals cannot be monogamous (regardless of who they choose to commit to), and that, if given the option, they will always choose a “normal,” more traditional life, unless they are a sociopath, they will get involved until they need some new drama situation and walk away as if they never knew you. You’ll cringe at the complete cold unfeeling behavior you never experienced.

    The Brazil Effect

    A writer traveled to Brazil and documented a disturbing new trend there: African-American men taking sex vacation because the poverty in Latin America is crushing, and there’s no shortage of women in places like Rio willing to say and do whatever it takes to survive for the men on vacation.

    There are beautiful women who are going, oh, I love black men, oh, you’re so beautiful, oh, the black men are this, the black men are that. And they realize that they don’t hear that kind of affirmation from American Black women and that kind of affirmation is what makes that experience so addictive, because men go down there time and time and time again. However, that’s not in every case some men get positive affirmations but their sociopathic minds won’t allow them to accept true love from anyone.

    JFYI –True Sociopaths are unable to change their behavior, their brains do not function like those of us who are able feel emotions.

    You are not alone, if interested in an anonymous support group, reply for the details, feel free to use a pseudo name – all information will be kept confidential.

  • Black History – 021923

    The oldest known source mentioning “Saracens” in relation to Islam dates back to the 7th century, in the Greek-language Christian tract Doctrina Jacobi. Among other major events, the tract discusses the Muslim conquest of the Levant, which occurred after the rise of the Rashidun Caliphate following the death of the Islamic prophet Muhammad.[5] The Roman Catholic Church and European Christian leaders used the term during the Middle Ages to refer to Muslims—usually Arabs, Turks, and Iranians.

    Saracens were founded in 1876 by the Old Boys of the Philological School in Marylebone, London (later to become St Marylebone Grammar School ). The club’s name is said to come from the “endurance, enthusiasm and perceived invincibility of Saladin ‘s desert warriors of the 12th century “.

    In 1493 Alexander VI issued the bull Inter Caetera stating one Christian nation did not have the right to establish dominion over lands previously dominated by another Christian nation, thus establishing the Law of Nations. Together, the Dum Diversas, the Romanus Pontifex, and the Inter Caetera came to serve as the basis and justification for the Doctrine of Discovery, the global slave trade of the 15th and 16th centuries, and the Age of Imperialism.

    Pope Nicholas V issued the papal bull Dum Diversas on 18 June 1452. It authorized Alfonso V of Portugal to reduce any “Saracens (Muslims) and pagans and any other unbelievers” to perpetual slavery. This facilitated the Portuguese slave trade from West Africa, it extended to the Catholic nations of Europe dominion over discovered lands during the Age of Discovery. Along with sanctifying the seizure of non-Christian lands, it encouraged the enslavement of native, non-Christian peoples in Africa and the New World.

  • Run Forest Run a #Sociopath is Following You

    Run Forest Run a #Sociopath is Following You

    Could you spot a sociopath? Sociopaths aren’t always the stereotypical “serial killer type” you might be thinking of. These individuals come in all shapes and sizes. Since sociopaths are experts at presenting themselves as everyday people, they can be very difficult to identify. That is unless you know what to look for, examples, complete disregard for their wives, calling their daughters a bitch, and no respect for their mothers, sex and money are their primary purpose for engagement, liars, and no remorse, there is nothing you can say that would hurt them other than, no to sex or no to money. They listen and learn about all of your strengths and weaknesses, it will be your weakness and your kind heart that they will use to destroy you (that happens when they get bored with you and you become useless) – and later call you the “crazy bitch”.


    What Is A Sociopath?    l

    Sociopathy, also known as an anti-social personality disorder, is a type of chronic mental condition defined by dysfunctional and destructive ways that the individual thinks and acts.

    An individual with this personality disorder will typically have no understanding or regard for the distinction between right or wrong. Their treatment of others can best be characterized by a callous indifference; they will antagonize or manipulate others without guilt or remorse.

    The causes of personality disorders are not fully understood. They’re thought to be the result of genetic and environmental influences. Some people may have certain genes that make them predisposed to developing the disorder, while certain scenarios might trigger its development.

    There is no effective form of treatment once the disorder has been diagnosed, as those affected have zero desire to change. The only treatment is to completely prevent the disorder from developing. This involves working with children who begin to show early signs of personality or conduct disorder. If children reach their teenage years without receiving any form of preventative treatment, it’s almost guaranteed that the disorder will be permanent.

    What we can learn from Ted Bundy’s case is that sociopaths aren’t easily identified because they know how to create an inconspicuous persona. At least some of us know an actual sociopath, although we may not even be aware of it. So what signs can we look for?

    Sociopaths are manipulative, and they’ll suck the life out of you for their own benefit. In some cases, like that of Ted Bundy, sociopaths can be extremely dangerous; they won’t hesitate to commit a crime to get what they want. If you know someone that fits the following profile, it would definitely be in your best interest to stay far, far away from them!

    1. Superficial Charm

    Sociopaths often appear to be very charming on the surface in order to create a facade. They are very aware of the effect their charm or wit may have on others, as their pretense of likability allows them easily gain people’s trust.

    1. Narcissistic

    Sociopaths are extremely egocentric, believing that they’re always right and that everyone should agree with their actions and opinions.

    1. Pathological Lying

    Sociopaths will lie, and lie, and lie in order to create a false persona. Lying comes naturally to them because they aim to hide their true motives.

    1. Manipulative And Cunning

    Sociopaths are extremely manipulative, attempting to find and exploit other people’s weaknesses in order to get what they want.

    1. Shallow Emotions Or None at All

    Sociopaths do not genuinely feel emotions. All emotions that they exhibit are intended to fulfill an ulterior motive. Although sociopaths don’t feel emotions, many can fake their emotions, fooling the people around them.

    1. Lack Of Remorse, Shame, Or Guilt

    Sociopaths are infamous for being devoid of these three emotions. They do not feel bad about their actions, even if these actions hurt others.

    1. Incapable Of Human Attachment

    Sociopaths are unable to form genuine relationships with others. They will struggle to make friends or establish romantic relationships. They may form relationships in order to appear normal, but they never experience the feelings that are present in functional, intimate relationships.

    1. Constant Need For Stimulation

    Sociopaths get bored very easily, and they need constant stimulation in their lives. This desire is related to their inherent need for self-gratification. Their need for stimulation can cause to them to take extreme and unnecessary risks that put themselves and others in dangerous situations.

    1. Lack Of Empathy

    They are unable to empathize with others. They are unable to relate to the perspectives or problems of others because they don’t understand how the other person feels. For example, if someone told you a sad story about a family member dying, you would feel empathic to their grief and pain, too. A sociopath, on the other hand, would feel nothing. In fact, lack of empathy exhibited by children could be an indicator of their later onset of antisocial personality disorder.

    1. Poor Behavioral Controls / Impulsive Nature

    Sociopaths will exhibit very short tempers, as well as hostility, irritability, and aggression. They’ll act on their impulses without thinking or caring about any potential consequences. They may behave violently or impulsively, and also may have problems with drug and alcohol use. These characteristics typically make people with antisocial personality disorder unable to fulfill responsibilities related to family, work or school.

    1. Promiscuous Sexual Behavior / Infidelity

    Sociopaths are likely to be unfaithful and promiscuous, which is connected to their tendency to get bored easily. Like we said earlier, they need constant stimulation.

    Nothing good can come from having a sociopath in your life, especially in regards to a romantic relationship. The best solution is to simply avoid these people at all costs. Don’t let them con you into thinking that they’re nice and sweet, because they are only embodying a persona. Whoever they are trying to portray doesn’t actually exist.

    If you suspect someone of being a sociopath, run your own sociopath test and look to see if they have any of the 11 traits listed.

    Deep down, these people are extremely cold-hearted, and they completely lack the full spectrum of human emotion. The only person they care about is themselves. No one else is important to them, and they see all other people as potential targets for their own selfish, deviant actions.

    If you have a sociopath in your life put his/her image here and run, I hope this helps someone who finds themselves in the grips of what I want to call a demonic spirit – with that said if you know of one or you think you are are in a relationship with one, walk away and remember they are impervious to any real feelings you can’t hurt them but you can pray and ignore them.
