Slap! The Greatest Night in TV History

By now you had to have heard about Will Smith slapping the absolute piss out of Chris Rock, right? Well if you haven't I'll give you a brief recap. 

Chris Rock was doing his emcee thing on stage, cracking some jokes and then when get got around to Jada Smith he said, "Jada, I love you, and I can't wait for GI Jane 2." At first Will was laughing, but then when he saw Jada wasn't too pleased, he proceeded to leave his seat, walk up to the stage, and slap Chris Rock. 

When he returned to his seat he kept yelling, "Keep my wife's name outta your f*cking mouth!" to which Chris replied, "Okay, I will." and carried on like a true professional. Now, I'm not going to sit up on some high horse and pretend that it wasn't funny, but that being said, the board of the Oscars, or whatever those people are called, were none too pleased and are considering stripping Will of his Oscar for the scene. 

The only problem with stripping Will of his Oscar for the scene is that there are people who've done egregious things far worse than Will's transgression. People like Woody Allen, Kevin Spacey, Harvey Weinstein, Roman Polanski, Mel Gibson, Casey Affleck, and Gary Oldman have done and been accused of far worse things than a simple slap. 

Case in point, we all know about Harvey Weinstein, but maybe you didn't know that Gary Oldman was accused of domestic violence and defended Mel Gibson who told his long time partner that he hoped she'd get raped by a bunch n*ggers and he broke several of her teeth. 

So you see, if they strip Will of his Oscar win, they'd have to do the same to those people I mentioned and even some I might not have mentioned for their past transgressions because if they don't and they choose to only strip Will of his win, things might go downhill very fast for the Oscars.

Here's Are Some Thing I've Learned From Growing My Cannabis Plant

-

Growing my plant turned out to be a complete waste of time. The whole appeal of DIY growing was not having to spend money on bud. From what I understand, a plant can yield about a pound of marijuana which would have lasted me at least 6 months, however, my plant turned out to be a male which is basically useless.  I know, I know...what do you mean useless? Well, male plants aren't the ones we smoke; it's the female plants that produce the potent sticky icky bud we all love.  Yes, I'm disappointed that my own grow was a bust, however, I figured I could at least share the things I learned along the way.  Male Plants versus Female Plants If you happen to come across a seed, or two, there's no way to tell whether or not a plant is male or female until it starts to grown, so my first tip is that if you only have the one seed, pray...pray real hard or skip planting all together because if you do end up with a male plant, it's more of a hassle than it's worth.  Serious

I'm tired of people telling me what I need to do, but not willing to help me do it.

I'm tired of people telling me what I need to do, but not willing to help me do it.  I live in, literally, the middle of God's green no where right now and I don't have a car.  Each time I've saved up money to get myself a car something happens.  For instance, I was up about $5k when the pandemic happened and I was just about to pull the trigger on getting a car, but at the time people were getting laid off and business was slowing down.  I figured it would be mighty stupid of me to take on this rather large financial obligation knowing that there's a chance I could be laid off.  Sure as shit, a month later, I was laid off. I wasn't at any great loss for not having a car at the time because I was living in NC and could walk, bike, or Uber/Lyft wherever I needed to go.  It sucked not having a car and having to walk places, but I swallowed my pride and did what I needed to do to make it.  Here, I can't walk anywhere. I can't Uber anywhere, so me getting a

Update for my Loyalists

I feel bad that I didn't do a podcast episode last week and feel bad that I don't feel like doing one this week. To be honest, every time I skip a podcast episode I left myself down more than anyone, but I think right now I'm going to put them on hold until I find another job, or get some money. It's hard to keep motivated when I'm stressing about money and trying to find a job. I wish I had the support and freedom to just focus on making my media company a success, but when you don't have money to eat it takes away from your focus.  I'm not sleeping well at night because my problems keep me up. Sometimes I'll stay up until I literally pass out and I know that's not good. I know that it's a sign that I'm depressed. I try to wake up every day and pretend everything is alright and I'm alright, but I'm not.  Everyday it's a struggle to keep my wits about me. I woke up one morning recently, went out side, found a huge stick, and slamm
