Don't miss out

Le titre de cette peinture est "Roi d'Hommes", traduit par "King of Men". L'image m'est venue à l'esprit lorsque je lisais à propos d'un phénomène appelé "roi des rats", où les queues d'une collection de rats sont entrelacées et liées ensemble. Des rois d'écureuils ont également été observés. La cause de ce phénomène est méconnue mais Il y a de nombreuses tentatives d'explications en ligne si cela vous intéresse.

Cette peinture est une représentation satirique d'un phénomène qui a gagné en popularité dernièrement : les podcasteurs qui se definissent comme des hommes alpha de haute valeur et qui passent leur temps à dénigrer les femmes.

J'avais l'habitude d'être agacé et en colère quand je voyais leur contenu et vidéos, mais maintenant je suis simplement amusée. Leur activité préférée est d'être derrière un micro et de discuter de la valeur des femmes et la façon dont nous avons plus aucune valeurs après 30 ans. Ils aiment aussi créer une longue liste de critères pour classer les femmes. Pour être considérée comme ayant une grande valeur à leurs yeux, la plupart du temps, vous devez être conventionnellement belle, jeune, soumise et accepter leur pauvreté (ou vous êtes une gold digger matérialiste).
Ils éduquent une jeune génération d'hommes qui dévorent leur contenu et évoluent avec une perception déformée des femmes. Mais je suis très sereine car je vois de nombreuses femmes avec du contenu et des vidéos qui aident les jeunes filles à ne pas tomber dans les techniques de manipulation de ces créateurs de contenus.

En fin de compte, si ma liberté d'expression est importante, je dois être ok avec le fait que tout le monde s'exprime, même ceux avec qui je ne suis pas d'accord.
Si je suis convaincue que leur rhétorique est un mensonge, au lieu de dépenser mon énergie à être en colère contre ce qu'ils disent, je peux utiliser des faits réels pour déconstruire leurs arguments et/ou simplement me moquer d'eux, comme je l'ai fait dans cette peinture ! Lol. Ne laissez personne vous pertuber avec leurs points de vue. Vous leur donnez trop de pouvoir lorsque vous le permettez. Si vous ne voulez pas l'ignorer, prenez-le à la légère et utilisez votre intelligence pour créer un l'équilibre que vous voulez voir...

Comfort to Entitlement
By: Leymah R. Gbowee

In our home, our children have gotten so used to walking into our bedroom without knocking. Some mornings, the entire crew will step in, grab the remote to the AC, and turn it off with the complaint that “the room is too cold.”

Our 14-year-old was home for Christmas and refused to sleep in her bedroom; she slept on the couch of our room. When I complained, she said, “I am technically not sleeping in your bedroom; I am sleeping in the sitting area.” I looked at my husband, and he whispered, “What will we do?”

The kids are so comfortable walking in our room at any time; I believe they don’t see a door mentally.

One day, one daughter decided she wanted to continue a conversation from the lunch table in the room; I wasn’t having it. I came up, my husband followed, and I locked the door as soon as he entered. She confidently walked to the door, turned the k**b, and said, “Oh, this room has a lock?” I answered, “Yes, and I will be using it moving forward.” She stood for a while, expecting my husband to open the door —that didn’t happen.

I was sitting recently reflecting on the level of comfort these children have when it comes to our bedroom and realized that we never really established boundaries when they were growing up. As young adults, they don’t see the need for boundaries. This is the same with many folks; you give them an opportunity once, twice, thrice, and it becomes a pattern, and eventually, they see it as an entitlement.

What comfort zone have you created with folks that have inadvertently turned into an entitlement? How do we fix this progression from comfort zone to entitlement? We do not have an answer or a solution for our bedroom and our co-tenants. But the lesson is never to allow anyone to get so comfortable in your space, with your money, time, and resources, that they begin to feel entitled.

Beware, comfort can lead to entitlement.

What will you buy me

What do we know about what happened to Jessica Lloyd? This evening something shattering was shared with the media when a young lady, Jessica Llyoyd, was alleged to have been nearly killed by a white missionary, Lucas Richard. What do we know?
According to the mother's tea she spilled, Lucas fell in love with Jessica and wanted to marry her. He came to her for a hand to marry her daughter. Cynthia Lloyd in her explanation said that she agreed to Lucas's proposal. Not knowing he was married to a white lady whom he had not told them about. When Jessica found out about it, she told her mom Lucas had a wife. Lucas in his defense told them he was looking for a second wife and the lady already agreed to have a polygamous marriage. He moved forward with the traditional rites and paid her dowry allegedly when he visited Cynthia and her family. Before their encounter, Lucas had allegedly told them that he was a man of God and he didn't want to sin and it was the reason he wanted to do everything by the books. He told Cynthia he was going to get their marriage certificate after their traditional wedding and get an apartment for Jessica when he went back to the US.

Surprisingly, things didn't go as planned as Jessica in the joy of the moment got pregnant for Lucas, allegedly. She said she told her alleged husband about it and later informed her mom. When they went to do the ultrasound, according to Cynthia, it was confirmed that Jessica was pregnant, right in the presence of Lucas. Lucas, however, did not allegedly want the pregnancy. and allegedly injected Jessica with a drug and needle that got rid of her belleh. Cynthia says in a sit-in talk with Freedom FM, that when Lucas visited their home, it was there and then he allegedly kidnapped her daughter into the bush and intended to slit her throat. She was allegedly rescued by a kehkeh rider who hit Lucas off from the back, when he allegedly saw Lucas trying to kill Jessica. They ran to their house, only to see Jessica with
