In 1977, Richard Pryor spoofed Star Wars by playing himself as a bartender in a Cantina sketch for THE RICHARD PRYOR SHOW. He personally asked for George Lucas's blessing, and Lucas was such a big fan of Pryor's, he not only said yes but also gave Pryor various masks and costumes used in the film 😂 hilarious
Welcome to Africa. Take a good look for yourself the other side of Africa that you do not see on social media and the western media. I think this is in Nigeria.
An aggressive white man approached 3 well mannered college aged young men who owned a mobile detail business with a firearm. When the police arrived, the college kids received a warning for not having proper permits. The man received no reprimand at all.
Sick and tired of the 401(k) ragebait.
As I always say: “When someone says a 401(k) sucks, just give them a minute… they’ll get to what they’re selling you shortly.”
BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA was released 40 years ago today.
It struggled at the box office after opening just weeks behind ALIENS, but years of home video and cable TV gave it a second life, turning John Carpenter’s action-fantasy into cult classics.

Look up Bacons Rebellion before you disagree.
Bacon's rebellion was the first rebellion in the North American colonies in which discontented frontiersmen took part.
The alliance between European indentured servants and Africans (a mix of indentured, enslaved, and Free Negroes) disturbed the colonial upper class. They responded by hardening the racial caste of slavery in an attempt to divide the two races from subsequent united uprisings with the passage of the Virginia Slave Codes
American who is a teachers assistant to a college professor is whistleblowing on the tools being used to grade papers
He shows they are now using technology that’s so advanced it can actually playback a person typing an entire paper, it can show all their typing, backspacing, deleting, pace, everything when uploaded to Google Docs to be submitted
He shows the papers aren’t being graded by the professor if these systems flag them as AI generated or using AI tools. A student would just typically automatically be assigned a fail
Now of course a good teacher can also manually review the paper to give a grade but this tool shows how extremely easy it is for a teacher to just have an AI handle things
It can also detect if an AI was used to write the paper
To get around these new detection methods, AI companies are developing better “humanizers” and auto-typers for students
