If you’re in the market for a luxury waterfront property, there are a few available at 3 Somerset Ln, Edgewater, NJ 07020. They are contemporary condominiums built in 2018, and many of the units overlook the Hudson River with a vast vista of the Manhattan skyline in the background. Without question, the stupidest people talk the most. That’s why misinformation and the lack of enlightenment are such prevailing problems for us today. Believe it or not, in my everyday life, I usually don’t have much to say. And as enlightened and enlightening as I am, I rarely even attempt to educate people on things. Many times, attempting to edify stupid people is like trying to fill an empty swimming pool with 8-ounce glasses of water, one glass at a time. For the record, everything that you read here are my unaffected thoughts, derived from personal experiences, and put into my own words. My only reference is the dictionary, which I employ to assure that I’m using words in the proper context. Again, I’m smarter than y’all, and I’m proud of it! Moving on, and I’m going to keep this simple, would you rather be rich or happy? Please, think about your answer and don’t continue reading until you’re certain of it. Are you ready? That’s one of those trick questions that will reveal a person’s true maturity and intelligence levels. Because if you’re happy, it’s safe to say that you’re comfortable enough with your circumstances to live worry-free or with minimal concerns. And if you know better, you’re aware that more money often means more problems. The fact is, money can’t buy happiness. And that’s evidenced by the currency of crackhead tendencies among the rich and wealthy. For instance, Michael Jordan’s son, Marcus Jordan, was recently seen snorting what’s purported to be cocaine while having a meal during a vacation in France. Nelly was just arrested after being caught with ecstasy pills following a traffic stop. President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, is a degenerate criminal and alleged addict. And without giving any more specific examples, drug overuse and abuse is a famous problem amongst the famed. If recreational drugs are considered an escape—a detachment device—what the hell are all these people with every material thing that they’ve ever dreamt of running from? Guess what, rich people are just as bored, blue, and burned out as everyone else. As a matter of fact, well off wacks have it the worst, because everyone expects for them to have superhuman mentalities that are impervious to stress and strain, but that’s not how psychology works. Obviously, the more pressure that a person is burdened with, the more displeasure that bothers them. Who in their right mind wants to live up to other people’s expectations? Better yet, why isn’t everybody too busy being happy to form unfair and unrealistic expectations for everyone else? We’ve all heard this argument before, right? In itself, being tired is tiresome. And that’s why people turn to “turning up” when times get tough. But if turning up is tantamount only to temporarily turning a blind to trouble and turmoil, what’s the permanent solution? Well, like I keep telling y’all—over and over—stop giving a fuck! If you really take the time to think about it, you will discover that nearly all your uncertainties and insecurities are evoked by the belief that your every motion and decision is being judged. So, if you aren’t turning up to turn away from torment, then you’re typically doing it to tranquilize the traducers. Everybody, no matter how hard it is, just be who makes you happy. Yet, for some people, being themselves is what makes them unhappy. And if that’s you, this is where I’m going to tell you that change is the only thing in life that can’t be changed. Change is as preordained as the unavoidable unhappiness that everyone experiences. And desiring to change, to be a happier version of yourself, is healthy and honorable.
Remember that thriller “The Glass House” with Diane Lane? That movie was ass, huh? I’m thinking about Diane Lane because she’s beautiful, and because I was watching “Deadpool vs. Wolverine” last night, which made me think about “Deadpool 2,” which stars actor Josh Brolin—who used to be married to Diane Lane. Do you see how my brain works? Anyhoo, the Deadpool franchise is undoubtedly in my top five favorite movie sagas of all time. I don’t know if Ryan Reynolds is that quick-witted in real life, but Wade Wilson supplies a supreme level of sarcasm. Admittedly, I’m an asshole, so I appreciate the assholery of fellow assholes. I’ve always wondered if I’m too cool to be funny, even though I have a silly side, and despite people complimenting me on my sense of humor. But speaking of silliness, how stupid does a motherfucker have to be to play themselves intentionally? For example, if you know who Deadpool is, why challenge him for any reason? And how many menacing men and minions do you think believe they could be main characters? There are a lot of sidekicks and backgrounders around and about who’re poorly portraying primary protagonists on the internet content scene. And if it weren’t for their affiliations and alliances, they’d be equivalent to movie extras without credits. What’s more, even some of the main characters out there don’t realize that they’ve been in syndication so long that many of their viewers are only tuning in by routine. And as soon as they are taken out of rotation, the algorithm will push something better to the People, and much of their viewership won’t even miss them. Okay, fuck this analogy, a lot of you niggas are washed and have overstayed your welcome! Diverging slightly, many people believe that Drake should take a break from music and allow his fans to miss him in order to regain some of the footing that he lost after the devastating blow administered by Kendrick Lamar’s now classic diss track, “Not Like Us.” However, I’d rather hear new tracks from Drizzy than to listen to “Not Like Us” one more time. And this situation is different from my prior analogy because Drake is diverse and eclectic enough to stay fresh. But for those other niggas, and y’all know who they are, it’s time for them to go! As far as content goes, today’s America is no country for old men. But with grey-haired geezers in mind, I really like Tim Walz as Kamala Harris’ running mate for the 2024 presidential election. Walz is only 60, still he looks as old as Trump and Biden, but he’s Caucasian and that’s not his fault. Isn’t it ironic how white people age like milk, and milk is white? Sorry, that’s some of my assholery surfacing. I’ve heard a few commentators complain about Tim Walz being an old white man as they were asserting that Americans don’t want more of the same. However, personally, I prefer experience over beauty as it pertains to a person making official, precedent-setting decisions that have the potential to impact my life deeply. I like everything about Tim Walz, he’s powerful, energetic, shrewd, and just seems like a good person. Walz doesn’t have that big grumpy grouch energy that a lot of elder Caucasian males and politicians have. And while you’re thinking about bad energy, ask yourself how much of it you exude. Allow me to annoy you while I’m wrapping up this post, will you? The transference of energy is the process of projecting and thereupon inspiring the exchange of identical expressions of feelings. Meaning, people are generally going to give the energy that they get, and vice versa. So, if you’re known to be a certain way, even people who’ve never interacted with you, but are aware of your manners of expression, are going to project the energy that they expect from you. With that being said, if you want to be met with good energy, you best put it out there! Peace.
