Speaker 2 (01:28):
Hey, hi, it's me mama
Q.
I welcome you to moments in QASMR episode.
In this episode I willtitillate your ear with my voice
and random sounds and cuetoday's 60 seconds of having
what's going on.
It's giving and croak on thejoke.
Oh, oh, all right y'all.
(03:05):
Yesterday was St Patrick's Day,so I hung out with my kinky
Irish friends in a vanillasetting.
The food was great.
One thing About ancestry one ofthem said.
You know, in our paraphrase,they don't understand why people
get so upset with themselves orwith other humans, because, you
(03:25):
know, we're all cousins.
Now that may be true, but damnit if it doesn't annoy me when
whites don't see color and feelgood by y'all.
All the time Everything isbased on race, gender and class.
In the US of a A and it ticksme off when the white friends
(03:45):
don't see or what I interpret.
They don't give a damn aboutthe plight of me, a black friend
.
But sadly I get it.
If they don't have to gothrough life with lenses that I
use to navigate, they won't getit.
For example, I follow Gorge'sespice on TikTok.
I learned a lot about disabilitythat I never gave a thought.
(04:08):
I hate to admit that, but it'strue.
Now I do the parapenemom whenit comes to disability.
Well, disabled people, I don'tpark in their spots.
Now I used to because my grannyshe was with me, she had her
disability card and even then Iwould feel weird, but it's like
(04:29):
she's in a car with me.
She couldn't drive so it madesense.
But I didn't know was that theyget paid less than minimum wage
and you can't make too muchmoney if you're on disability,
which makes no sense to me,because how can you afford to
take care of yourself?
Now, granted, I don't know howmuch disability and cost of
(04:55):
living, but I can make anassumption that it's not
sufficient enough.
But that's just assumption ofmine.
I don't have to worry aboutgoing without sharing in a hotel
room because it's made forpeople who are able.
And I recently learned becauseagain, sadly it didn't affect me
(05:18):
on TikTok this creator booked aADA accessible hotel room,
called to ensure that the roomwas accessible for him to use
his wheelchair.
He get there, he has a tub,which means he's not able to
take a shower, so like thingslike that.
(05:41):
Of course, unfortunately Iwouldn't notice because I'm able
body, but at the same time it'slike damn, this kind of fucked
up for someone to not give ashit about somebody who's
disabled, to ensure that theyhave everything that they need.
But I guess can't put too muchon the workers, because they
(06:02):
just work there and the mayormay not know the different
levels of disability that exist.
But anyway, I personally hatenot knowing the trials and
tribulations of others, becauseI don't want to seem out of
touch and like I don't want toalso seem like I'm better.
And of course my therapistswill always say that that's up
(06:23):
to those people because I can'tcontrol nobody but myself.
But I don't know.
I guess because as a Blackwoman I know what it's like to
always go to trials andtribulations that I never want
to forget that.
Yes, I am quote unquote at thebottom of the tunnel pole, but
there are other people thatcould quote unquote potentially
be at the bottom of the tunnelpole with me, so it's like let
(06:46):
me not forget them.
One thing I know about myself isI'm very empathetic to most
people and I try my best to seelife from their side.
But whites, it needs to be moreof y'all being aware.
It reminds me of the tip talkmyself that this white woman
almost got sucker punched withhis black tooth, was about to
(07:08):
wind up his arm to do one ofthose punch games.
I think it's like a strengthtype of game, where you punch
the punchy bag and it'll tellyou how strong you are.
I don't know the proper name ofit.
She lacks situational awareness, which lots of folks suffer.
But the bigger part is movingthrough life with no obstacles,
literally and figuratively.
(07:30):
So also in the video was a Blackperson who saw what was
happening and moved as expected.
You know, if they moved around,was it in the path?
And of course this white womandid not, and it will not any of
an article that I read manyyears ago that said and yes, you
know, and I'm paraphrasing,that most white people expect
non-whites to get out of theirway whenever they're walking,
(07:52):
and it made me self reflect onmyself, and so I try to move
with the purpose and rune as ifneed be, when they are in my way
.
Of course they won't sit andreflect, while I would All right
my boo thinking up and outsideall these state nights, and I
have enjoyed every single lastone of them, the experiences and
(08:14):
carefreeness, if that's aware,carefreeness I think that's a
word on our dates, it's, it'sthe shelf's kiss.
I ain't always paying, I'm notstressed, and it's a happy
medium.
I'm not breaking the bank andthe venue, but not being so
cheap that there's a no sleepsection and you just there just
(08:36):
to say you're dead.
Because location, location,location, what else?
Oh yeah, I gave and receivedReiki.
When I received Reiki it wasgreat.
The Reiki master, intuition wason point and her suggestions
reflected what I felt andstruggled with during Reiki.
Given long distance Reiki wasinteresting, this is say the
(08:57):
least.
It was to a friend of mine fromwork.
I thought came into my head notto do it, but it was allowed,
so the choice was mine.
The session was very difficult.
I felt like I connected and Iimmediately got disconnected.
I was humble enough to knowthat it wasn't a big deal as
long as the Reiki energy flowed.
I felt like her ancestors,spirits and or higher self did
(09:21):
welcome my Reiki, which again,was fine.
The bigger thought I had, whichI refused to divine on nor tell
her, is I think she has anattachment.
Luckily, as usual, I do myprotection barriers.
I caught on lots of protectionbefore we began.
I even let her hear the prayers.
Now normally I say theminternally, but I don't know.
I felt it in my spirit to sharewith it out loud this time.
(09:44):
So after the Reiki session, wetalked about some things that I
felt like.
I was told why the connectionfelt off and my thoughts on the
attachment or not.
Will I still to rehear on heranywhere else or anyone else?
Sure, but I think, goingforward, I definitely need to
divine on it.
It's Kiffy.
(10:06):
I'm giving you theencouragement to make it through
the week.
Let's tackle eating thatelephant together, one bite at a
time.
A Facebook friend of mine talkedabout dreaming and, in
summation, she shared her dreamwith someone and the dream was
not received.
Well, I hated that happened.
(10:27):
Now, the friend didn't go intodetails as to why the friend
wasn't receptive to the dream.
It could be for various reasons, but let's talk about surface
level of dreaming.
I hardly believe you shouldn'tshare your dreams with just
anyone, and sometimes no one.
It depends.
Like J Cole said, if they don'tknow your dreams, they can
(10:49):
shoot them down.
I remember my family shootingdown my business ideas without
constructing criticism or avalid reason.
Just like candles I light, Idon't share the wax remnants
online anymore Now.
Granted, when I did use toshare them.
I shared them with social mediafriends.
(11:09):
I trust Not the public, butstill your prayers, your work
and your dreams, yourmanifestations, aren't for
everyone to consume.
Not everyone is your friend andif they are your friend, not
everyone will be happy if yourdreams come true.
It sucks, but I want toencourage you to keep dreaming
(11:32):
anyway.
Dream for the future, dream forthe silly things, but damage is
dream Like.
Dreaming in a literal sense ismy favorite thing to do.
I love doing things in mydreams.
I wonder.
Do in public or allowed to,because, duh, finding your
dreams as a human doesn't exist.
(11:52):
But dreams can be the answersfrom your subconscious that you
consciously asked for orwondered.
Dreams with sleep helps.
Does water for your bodypsychic?
So don't be afraid to dream,write or flick and keep a silent
.
If need be, let's get itpopping.
(12:14):
I blow out the bubblessurrounding pop culture and talk
about it.
So University of Memphis willallow Kyle Rennals to speak on
their campus, which I disagreewith.
But I understand why they mustallow it because of the right to
bear arms.
I mean the right of freedom ofspeech.
(12:34):
Here is their quote, but againquote as a public institution,
the University of Memphis mustuphold its obligation to adhere
to the principles of the FirstAmendment and Genesee Campus
Free Speech Act.
Due to this obligation, theuniversity cannot legally
prohibit the offend from takingplace, end quote.
(12:56):
And they go on to say theuniversity is not sponsoring the
offend, it's a registered groupon campus that's sponsoring,
and I don't like it at all.
And that's when the pettiness,or in this case, evilness of
people come out with theamendment rights.
If you don't know about Rennals, google it.
(13:18):
I like how some localpoliticians are bringing
awareness of the fit andencouraging people to sign up
for free tickets in hopes ofhaving an empty ground.
That pettiness I can get behind.
I don't really have much totalk about this.
Rennals intentionally did whathe did.
Crocodile did cry on the stand.
People supported it.
(13:39):
He got acquitted and now likedo to a murder tree, von Martin,
he can profit off his kill.
That's American capitalism andblack aid at its finest.
So, speaking of white folksprofiting off of blacks,
everyone's favorite wicker thatlots of black folks invited to
the kick out which I won't everattend, the cook out said the N
(14:03):
word hard ER.
Can you guess who it is?
Paula Dean, yeah, but I mean no.
I mean, yeah, she said it someyears ago, but I want you to try
again, jane Jane, jane Elliot,she said it.
So Jane Elliot, a white woman,became popular with her blue
(14:25):
eyes and brown eyes treatment toshow people that they are
racist.
She was also on an episode ofthe red table.
People love her.
Black folks invited her to thecook out, called her an ally.
There was a Facebook post Iremember reading some years ago
from Dash, and I'm paraphrasingit per usual, but the status is
(14:46):
something along the lines thatJane Elliot is profiting off of
blackness and taking away moneyfrom black people that are
really doing the work.
And of course, in the commentsthere was a debate about it.
But that status gave me amoment.
I never realized it before.
I assume she was meaning Elliotwas an ally.
(15:08):
She spoke to white folks aboutthe racism and prejudice.
Then a white friend of minethat I believe to is an ally,
told me that, despite being anally, every day he has to remind
himself of the racism that wasembedded in him since childhood.
It's like similar to therapy,where it's a daily struggle
(15:28):
slash reminder that you're notfully healed but you're working
towards progress.
Therefore, I'm not surprisedthat Jane has said the hard ER
and tried to gaslight everybodyinstead of an apology or, in
this case, an appall of lies.
So the clip I saw.
(15:48):
She was talking to people in agroup setting and this black
person said people think I'mangry.
She was like huh.
He repeated people say thinkI'm angry.
Then she said I thought yousaid bleep hard ER, and look for
me.
I almost say ER.
I try not to say the A and I'mfor damn sure will not allow any
(16:12):
white people say it in mypresence.
As always, my therapist said Ican have different boundaries
for different people.
Anyway, someone tried to callJane out for it.
She asked the black person ifthey were offended.
His response was no.
So Jane says you shouldn't beoffended.
I disagree.
Anyone can feel offended at anytime.
(16:34):
I don't give a fuck if theblack person wasn't offended.
I am for me.
The arrogance and nerve of Janefelt like she can say that word
and I think she said in hopesof quote unquote, correct him
the fuck not.
So no matter how much of anally or work you are, you can
still show your isms and sayracial epithets in the comfort
(16:56):
of your own Around others,because you aren't like the
others.
Oh, in the way she smoothlysaid it, I bet you she believes
she ain't like the other ones.
Lastly, tiktok is beingthreatened to be banned again by
the US because too many peopleare profiting and educating
themselves.
The politicians want a piece ofthe pie.
(17:17):
At one point I was anti-TikToktill I had another light bulb
moment the US.
The USA already got my info andthe info of others, but they
draw the line when it's in theAsian country.
Uh, okay, oh yeah, wait my bed.
I thought I lied I'm not done.
(17:38):
Here's my last one.
So, christians talking aboutspiritual people on Facebook.
I was going to talk about thismeme today I saw, but I will
save it for Saturday's podcastepisode.
I don't want to bash Christiansback to back, so instead I went
in this segment of pop culturetalking about a world tour, with
my mom and my man going eachand every place with the mic in
(18:00):
my hand New York, new Jersey,north Carolina, va.
We are on a war tour, with mymom and my man going each and
every place with the mic intheir hand Oakland, la, san
Francisco, san John, nah,seriously, I saw on Facebook
that there's a tour going on inMemphis high schools, where it's
called the Ignitor.
(18:21):
Well, big high schools, highschoolers, to join their core,
their cult, I mean to give theirlife to God.
I'm a yes, of course, because Ibelieve religion has no place
in our high schools.
If other religions and orspiritualities aren't welcome in
high school, then no, no otherplace should be.
Don't forget, last yearChristians went on a Christian
(18:44):
protest because of the afterschool club hosted by the
satanic club in Cordova, whichis a court on court suburb of
Memphis, tennessee.
To me it's never about savingthe souls or allowing freedom of
speech and religion.
I feel like it's always aboutfear of marker and brainwashing.
And, of course and peoplebelieve in sky, daddy wills and
(19:05):
munition those that don'tbelieve that internal fire and
damnation awaits them.
And to me that's culture'sbehavior coming from a paper
religion.
It's like the youngest childsaying look at me, look at me,
look at me, I want attention.
Like Rob, other religionsalready got thousands of years
on.
You Croak on the choke.
(19:27):
That's where I give you mybestest jokes and we laugh
together, or not?
Today's joke Someone justcalled my phone, sneezed and
then hung up.
I'm getting sick and tired ofthese cold calls.
Get it.
Well, guess, that's my cue toleave.
