Morning Mail 7.22.10

Morpheus: The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you're inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it.
[Neo's eyes suddenly wander towards a woman in a red dress]
Morpheus: Were you listening to me, Neo? Or were you looking at the woman in the red dress?
Neo: I was...
Morpheus: [gestures with one hand] Look again.
[the woman in the red dress is now Agent Smith, pointing a gun at Neo's head; Neo ducks]
Morpheus: Freeze it.
[Everybody and everything besides Neo and Morpheus freezes in time]
Neo: This... this isn't the Matrix?
Morpheus: No. It is another training program designed to teach you one thing: if you are not one of us, you are one of them.

So I’m waiting on my table because I’m Red Lobster for Crab Fest. And I see this couple, Black guy and white girl. But the white girl is smoking. I mean, boom and bow. But this Red Lobster is in a part of town where mostly Black folk frequent. So you can see all the eyes that she’s catching. And this is what I loved about her, she was so on point, any dissention could only be seen as hate. Hair, on point, outfit, on point, shoes, on point. I thought to myself, she’s putting it on about 95% of every female in this place regardless of race.

There’s this guy at my job who is gay. And he wears these horrendous blue contacts although he’s not white. So it really makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. So a woman comments, “No woman I know find color contacts on a man attractive.” And I said, “It doesn’t matter, he’s not interested in women anyway.” So the group laughs and says, “That’s not nice.” I’m trying to figure out, if it’s the truth, why is it offensive?

I have been writing so much lately, I think I average about 4-5 posts a day. When do I have time to write them? When everyone else is taking a break, I’m sprinting. I sleep less, but I’m happy about what I’m doing and hopeful to transition it into something profitable. I’m tired, but I’m patiently waiting for my next move. Yes, there will be a next move.

It’s cool to watch celebrities go through it, it’s not cool to have to go through it yourself.

A lot of men will take a dive rather than stand up for what’s right. It’s almost 10AM and I’m already seeing how men will take a dive or write the more P.C. response to a post when I know they are full of turd.

There’s a group of four sitting having lunch, talking about this Black woman who just got let go for some racially charged comments that were probably made in poor taste. So two of them, don’t really focus on race too much, but the other two are a little outspoken about it. The white guy says, “Black people are more racist than white people. Like how many times in a day do you think white people even think about Black people?” The black guy replies, “That’s racist!” Personally, I’ve still not been able to digest it.

My goal is to see Eclipse and Inception this weekend, in addition to catching up on the Hills.
