It’s imperative that Weed becomes legal in all 50 states, and that more is done to let Black and other minorities tap into that Marijuana market. It’s quite ridiculous that the major weed distributors are owned by white owners, while there are many African-American consumers. If white people are getting rich selling weed legally, how come black people can’t do the same thing? It’s Black History Month. We need equality. As always, please don’t smoke and operate a motor vehicle.

Dear POTUS, for the love of God (Jesus, Allah & Buddha), please pass Voting Rights laws this month. Passing these laws during Black History Month will make it vividly clear to all Americans around our great Nation that America is for all Americans, including African-Americans and Minorities. Thanks in advance.

I have not watched Season 2 of Euphoria yet, but it is imperative that parents watch the Awkward Breakfast Conversations series on YouTube. It is imperative that teenagers do not abuse pills. Remember what I mentioned forever ago, if you need drugs to listen to Electronic Dance Music, then maybe you should not listen to it in the first place. It’s really good music, and parents are worried sick about their teenage kids. Therefore, if you want to keep attending concerts, and festivals, give them some peace of mind, they don’t need to worry about you OD’ by taking a pill from a stranger you don’t know. As you know, Fentanyl is a huge problem therefore be careful. Thanks for listening. What I say may sound boring, but it just might save your life.

    It’s Black History Month. I really enjoy the series The Wonder Years Season 2 right now. I grew up watching many shows, including MARTIN (he had a radio talk show), therefore, I look forward to watching the entire series.

    The new Fresh Prince of Bel-Air reboot looks great! Looking forward to it.

Until Next Time!

    It is evident now that Donald J Trump (homonculus) has shown how dangerous he is, and how deep of a hole he has dug himself. He destroyed records at the Mar-a-Lago. He is deeply involved in the mafia and the mob, so much that Mueller had to come up with super innovative ways to show how incredibly insane things were. Trump had convinced millions of Americans that he is not at fault, even though his behavior would put the average person into a Mental Asylum. Yes, Trump is now, as it stands, worst than Joker from the D.C. Comic Books. He has killed 600,000 Americans by telling them not to wear a mask. This is extremely dangerous for the state of our Democracy. It is imperative that the FBI expedite whatever the fuck it needs to do. The more individuals are arrested from the January 6th Insurrection, the more it will prevent more White Nationalists from stupid behavior. Do I need to remind you that it’s fucking BLACK HISTORY MONTH, and that there are millions of African-Americans and other minorities in jail for a small amount of weed, and meanwhile, you’re not arresting people who hijacked the Capitol on January 6th? Can you imagine if it was a brown person? We’d have invaded yet another country! I mean damn, c’mon, do the right thing, Washington D.C. Thanks for listening.

Until Next Time!
