Kevin Gates explains why he stopped watching porn and how he learned to channel his sexual energy into his purpose:
"I used to sit there and watch porn and masturbate, until one time a brother told me, 'You know that’s self-mutilation?'"
"He said, 'You’re jacking off to another man’s success.'"
"He started telling me about sex transmutation, where you can take that sexual energy and channel it into your workouts, your craft, and your music."
"If you're pleasure-driven, you develop addictions. If you're purpose-driven, you develop riches, and not just with wealth of the pocket, but of the heart and of the mind."
Being mindful with your pleasure includes taking your time before, during, and after each self-pleasure session.
Shame, self-judgment, and criticism can start to creep in any time that we rush the process.
Psychologically, when we rush the clean-up process, even if we don’t intend on it, behind the scenes within our brain, we might be sending ourselves the signal that our pleasure is wrong, sinful, gross, disgusting, or shameful.
So, the next time you have some self-pleasure time, sit in the goo afterward. Let it be okay. Let yourself be human. Return to your breath, return to your body. Simply, exist.
(There’s a deep metaphor here for life and how we often rush through the discomfort of the ‘goo’ to clean up and get on with things… but that’s a topic for another video). ✨

🚨UPDATE: NEW DETAILS IN THE MURDER OF 15-YEAR-OLD AUSTIN PAYNE - HIS SOCIAL MEDIA🚨
I have been digging further into the tragic murder of 15-year-old Austin Payne, who was shot and killed on Halloween night in Albany, Georgia. And after looking through what appears to be Austin’s social media account, I have some additional information.
First, a quick recap. Austin was found dead inside an abandoned apartment on November 1, 2026. Four individuals have since been arrested and charged with murder: Jansquincey Donaldson, 15; Omari Marion, 15; Adarious Wallace, 16; and Detravion Parker, 22.
Investigators say that on Halloween night, Austin was walking with a group when armed individuals approached them, demanded their belongings, and opened fire. Police recovered seven 9mm shell casings near the scene.
According to reporting based on the police investigation, witnesses suggested that Austin may have been targeted because of a handgun he had recently displayed on social media.
I have now reviewed screenshots and material from an Instagram account appearing to belong to Austin, under the username @moneymotion36.
Among the images is a photograph of a young man holding what appears to be a handgun with an extended magazine. The account also contains content featuring what appear to be additional weapons, drugs, and vaping products.
In one of the videos, there appears to be a turtle that looks as though someone may be shooting at it.
According to the police incident report described by WALB, Austin called his mother at approximately 8:03 on Halloween night and told her that he had been shot and needed help.
His mother reportedly told investigators that she initially believed he was joking because of comments he had made in the past. It wasn’t until after she finished working that evening and could no longer reach him that she became concerned.
The following morning, she tracked his cellphone to an abandoned apartment via an AirTag, entered the building, and discovered her son unresponsive on the floor.
I cannot imagine what that mother must be experiencing right now. I cannot imagine the guilt she may be carrying, knowing that her son called her for help and that those were possibly some of his final moments alive.
I do find the delay in recognizing the seriousness of that phone call deeply disturbing.
There is something seriously wrong when children this young are surrounded by firearms, robberies, and violence, and a 15-year-old ends up dying alone in an abandoned building after calling his mother for help.
Austin would have turned 16 on November 12.
This is a body I found on the streets last year. I have witnessed dozens of people die this year on the streets of Portland. Me wanting a new Governor had nothing to do with politics. I wanted somebody new in charge to try something different because what we have tried is not working.
