People that grew up in the 90s telling me how much better it was in the 90s.

:what: negro did you live in the 90s?!?!

Well I mean, the 90s were better in a lot of ways. :manny:

Granted there was a lot more gang violence.


But politically things were better (being an open racist wasn't as socially acceptable as it is now and you didn't have the Trump/MAGA/Tea Party shyt) and as far as I'm concerned nothing beats TV/music/movies/games from the 90s. shyt is legendary. Granted I'll admit there may be some nostalgia but still. Plus you didn't have all the dumb shyt people believe now (flat earth, Illuminati, Climate change denial, antivaxx, etc.) due to social media and Youtube.

It was Elijah Muhammad, Farrakhan wasn't even an NOI leader yet.
I look at anyone who:cape: NOI a certain way. Muslims were the first group to enslave Africans on a major level

Same Elijah Muhammad who let George Rockwell(Neo nazi) speak at a NOI rally just because they had a common hatred for Jews :mjlol:

This is false.

Louis Farrakhan was made national minister almost immediately after Malcolm was suspended from the position and kicked out of the NOI. He wrote articles calling for the death of Malcolm X in the NOI national paper before Malcolm died, and happened to be 30 miles away in New Jersey the day Malcolm was murdered.

That doesn’t make up for being mugged outside after dudes spotted you with a new pair of jeans.


That’s the mentally that was there in the 90s.

fukked up people all over.

If ya bones ache. It's gonna rain.

This one has validity actually while not necessarily bones:




Why Your Joints Hurt When the Weather Changes

Blame it on the barometric pressure: Any change in pressure, or the weight of the air pressing against the surface of the earth, can trigger joint pain or headaches in some people.


So when your great-aunt said she could "feel" a storm coming on, she was likely right.

"Arthritis affects everything else within the joint itself, including the joint lining, which we call the synovium, as well as the ligaments that are within the joint," Dr. James Gladstone, co-director of sports medicine at The Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City, told weather.com. "All of those tissues have nerve endings in them, so they're going to feel changes in the weather as tightness in the joint, or stiffness."

Although research conclusions on this have been mixed, anecdotal evidence from patients — and most experts — support a link between the two. According to a survey published in the journal Pain, two-thirds of people living with chronic joint complaints in San Diego, Nashville, Boston and Worcester, Massachusetts, believed there to be a link between their pain and weather changes.

The same goes for migraines, which patients also say are linked to weather patterns. Barometric pressure changes, as well as changes in humidity and temperature, might affect the pressure in the brain, or the way the brain blocks pain, Dr. Steven Graff-Radford, director of the program for headache and orofacial pain at the Cedar-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, told weather.com last year, though the mechanism is somewhat unknown. "What’s quite clear, however, is that overcast, cloudy and rainy days produce more migraine headaches," he said.

Depending on how severe joint or headache pain is, patients should see their doctors to create a changing-weather treatment plan, Dr. Gladstone said.

I can tell when we are due for heavy rain as I'll get a migraine which will begin to dissipate as it starts raining I can even smell it :francis:
