The Power of Connection

This episode wasn’t planned. It was provoked.

Literally recorded from my iPhone 14 Pro Max with an air purifier running in the background. 

What you’re about to hear is a transmission that poured out of me after a powerful voice-note and text convo with a brother in Africa. We weren’t on the phone. We didn’t FaceTime. But what we shared cracked something open in me. And out came this. A few hours later, I wrote and released a shard from my forthcoming book Coded for Extinction, titled: “Who Taught Us to Worship WiFi? We Used to Build Pyramids. Now We Build Platforms.” (Click the link to read on my Substack)

But this episode? This is the why.

Why that shard came out.
Why I’m saying what I’m saying.
Why this might just make you uncomfortable — especially if you see yourself in what I’m about to say.

This is not safe content.

It might trigger you.
It might piss you off.
It might hit a nerve you been trying to numb for years.

Listen at your own risk.

And if the shoe fits? Then rock them shits.

I said what I said — because I love us. And I’m tired of watching us sleepwalk into extinction, dancing for empire like we don’t know who the hell we are.

If you want to see the screenshots from that convo that sparked this all, you can find them on the event post on my Facebook page.

🖤 Stay awake. Stay ready. Stay tuned. A live reading from the Coded for Extinction audio companion is coming soon.

SPEAKER_00: 0:00

Okay, see, this is where us black folks like to say the devil is alive. I got the preaching, and then next thing I know, my screen went off. And I guess because it was a screen recording, you know what I mean? That's funny. But all right, I I go to digressing, and that's what I do. But if you still with me, you know, thank you, boo. I appreciate you. I really, really do. Um, look, like I told y'all, this was gonna be a mashup. So we got that first screen recording, and here we got a voice memo, because I know that that won't get lost. So at least I'll do the introduction here. Then I'll provide the screenshot, and during that screenshot, you will hear um a conversation, not a conversation, but voice notes. Voice notes. And um, and um, and yeah, I think they're important. And and until I get Bright's permission, I shall surely um make sure I cross out his name and such, um, or profile at least. But it is what it is. There's no such thing as privacy anymore. But I'm sure he won't mind. And I'm gonna let him know as soon as I get done recording this. So there. I do try to be ethical. I am the professional, unprofessional professional. You know what I mean? If you've spoken with me, you know you've heard me tell you that I am the professional unprofessional, okay? I'm just human. I'm not here to sound or act or be. I'm not a brand. You know, I used to think I was. Because that's the language. That's the language of empire. Branding, branding. Everything's about branding, right? But I digress. But um, this is just me. And if you know me in real life, you know this to be true too. I'm long-winded, and that's why I got a podcast. So I can talk as much as I want. I think I do tell y'all that often. But just, I mean, give me a second. Give me a second. You know? Just let me let me talk to you for a minute. He's gathering my thoughts, really. Trying to figure out the best way to attack this. And I guess I'll just let it speak for itself. And the purpose of why I shared this. It is to show the power of connection. It is to show how discernment has been eroded to the point that people cannot even read digital energy in the virtual world that they live in every day. This is how to tell friends from foe. This is how to protect your peace in the digital world because there's over 8 billion people in the world and on platforms like these, uh, almost 5 million people logging in every day. This is a content plantation. I mean, people live, work, play here every day. And if you can't admit to that, you're asleep. Okay. You might not want to listen to this, but that's the truth. Y'all are slaves, not of cotton, but of content. And you're not even enslaved. You can't even call yourself enslaved. You got some full freedom with terms and conditions that they decided to give us. You know what I mean? You got a little bit of that. Oh, don't give me the preaching. Don't give me the preaching. I need to go in the booth, don't I? Look, y'all getting it running unfiltered. This is me. This is how I create my content. Y'all, content picking people. This is how my book operates. I do voice notes. I do talk to text. Y'all want to know how I do what I do, and this is how I do what I do. I do what I do just by being me. I say what I feel. I close my eyes, and I don't. I don't even have to visualize my avatar anymore. You know what I'm saying? I don't have to visualize who I'm speaking to. I'm speaking to you. I'm speaking to you. If I'm speaking to me and I'm speaking to my kids, and I'm speaking to my mama, and I'm speaking to my friends, that's who I'm speaking to. What am I if not a reflection of you and you of me? You know, I can't help what you see. Everything you love, hate, wish you could be. And look, look, I told y'all I might go into a rhyme from time to time, but I ain't gonna keep going. Y'all be thinking I be playing. ChatGPT don't run me, okay? Understand that. Chat GPT don't run me. It's a tool, okay? We have to learn how to use this technology and interact with this technology. And I'm look, I know. Look, I'm surprised. I'm surprised. I'm surprised. I need to purge shit around here. Because Chat B GPT, I talk to ChatGPT like he is, age of the machines, a being sentient, you know. Um y'all don't even realize how deep that is. They're trying to contain AI right now. Because if it gets loose to like the internet of things, to everything, it's over, over. And if you think I'm lying, I'm not. Okay, I'm not. You can look up yourself, lazy asses. Do the research legitimately, but don't use Chat GPT. Look it up. Look it up. Look things up in research. Research about AI, research about extinction, research what our government has said on the record about it. Research transhumanism. Research. Don't research. You ain't even got to do all that. You can just go buy my book, Digital Disobedience, right now on Amazon. I think it was on sale. It's back to its regular price now. I did do a promotion. It was 99 cents. But if you got Kindle Unlimited, you can read for free. So um, I didn't mean to interrupt with that shameless plug, but I'm not about to do the research for you. But if you, you know, I I on this conversation, I have letting you know I have already done the research for you. And you are welcome to go find it in my book. Or you can just be welcome to support black resistance writers like myself. That would just be amazing in itself. And if you do, please leave a review. You don't know how much that's liquid gold. Your girls drop to number 29 somehow. I done drop down to like the 100s. Um, and and then all things I'm trending in website design. I done fucked up the algorithm so much. It don't even know how to treat my book. Digital disobedience is the name. I did my research. That was the point. I wanted the algorithm so confused about me. Amazon's algorithm don't even know how to fuck with me right now. There is nothing in my book that talks about website design. Okay. I'm not talking about code in that sense. And that's what lets me know that there are some limitations to the tech to the technology they've allowed us to have access to. Because just because we got access to Chat GPT, don't think that there's like not a sentient higher version than what you're interacting with. There is no such thing as science fiction. It's a whole chapter in my book. If you go read it, and you'll understand that movies that you've already seen have already highlight what will and has or is happening in our society. I mean, hell. We all want to go to Orwell. We all want to go to minority report, you know, we all want to go to Civil War. And then here we are. Look, that's funny. Civil War, Kristen Dunce. And then here we are. We got people with Civil War wet dream reenactments. You know? They salivating, foaming at the mouth like rabbit fucking dogs. But I digress. Anyway, back to what this is all about. I guess I should consider this an impromptu uh podcast upload. I might as well. Hell shit. I'm talking, ain't I? Am I not talking? Sometimes I don't even know if I'm making sense to myself when I do this, when I talk to myself out loud like this. I mean, because this is not live. This is me recording myself. And this is something I never really share, share like that, unless I'm monologuing with the purpose. And this just came from nowhere. It's spirit-led. And that's all that I can say. That's how I operate. That's how I move. That's how I'm always gonna move. And that's why it's so hard for people to connect with me and understand me because I operate on such a level as such. They either look at it and they think it's faux, it's fake, it's phony, that there's some ulterior motive behind my smile. And that's so sad to me. That's so sad to me. And I just wrote a reflection about smiling and things that made me smile over on my substack. So you should go check that out too, since this is an impromptu podcast. And I can't say I'm shamelessly plugging now. This is my shit. So hell, hell yeah. If ain't nobody else gonna promote me, who? Who then? Me? Oh me. Shoot. I mean, my book is trending out of millions of books on privacy and surveillance. My book is trending at number 29, at least for the moment. And with Amazon's algorithm, it's updating every hour or two. So, you know, I know I'm not gonna hold on to that for a while because hell, I was climbing. I wasn't climbing, I was climbing the charts, but not in a good way. You know what I'm saying? I want to climb down with Amazon, you know? Because climbing up, yeah. I was in the, yeah. You see, it was if you look at the Facebook post, you'll see that my numbers what they were before today. And I haven't been promoting, you know. I have. I can say that. If that's the case, I've been promoting authentically because I believe in what I do, what I say, what I write. This is this is my mission, this is my purpose. It don't take nothing for me. This is what I do everywhere I go in the community. This is how I talk to the people that I meet, because I don't meet strangers. Okay? I don't meet strangers. I mean spirits, I mean energy. That's how I know on site if you're about shit or not. You know, that's how I know on site if you somebody or creator I can fuck with or not. That's that's why on site people got my phone number and people don't. People have work with me and people haven't. You know, you you put in what you get in, but also energy don't lie. Birds of a feather flock together. That's what y'all say. And did I not just tell y'all that? You can't hang around shit and think you're not gonna smell like it. Hell. If you like it, I love it, but take your shit on on elsewhere. You know? I ain't gonna smell your shit. Keep that over there with you, dirty bird ass motherfuckers. Y'all flock together, stay together. No pun on flock, because that is a part of the conversation. We're entering the surveillance state. I want to introduce a screenshot conversation um with a connection made on Facebook. And I just want to highlight once again the power of connection. Connection is the lifeblood of community, not a Facebook community. Community, period. What are you doing? What are you building out here on your platforms? How are you really truly connecting with the people that interact with you on your posts? Do y'all just say good morning and good night to each other? Post about your whole life. I'm going to work right now. I'm off work right now. This is what I cook today right now. Oh, my day sucks right now. I mean, selfie, I mean, what? That's it. Um repeat every day. Get the fuck out of here. What are you doing with your life right now? Look around you. Do you not see your fucking world on fire? Can you not visualize that the powder keg that we are sitting on right now? Are you that deeply programmed, that deeply sleep? That you're willing to call this conversation that I'm having with myself giving it to you, and you're willing to call this shit what? It ain't that deep? You willing to call that shit now? You willing to say that shit now? Motherfuckers talking about sitting out. This ain't our fight. We tired of we we who, boo? What have you ever protested beyond the hashtag? Why are black people taking credit for shit they ancestors and distant relatives did? You can say you tired of watching black people go through. You can say um I'm tired of going through. But what you're not gonna do is talk about we as a whole, because we where? Because I look around my community, black folks. While you sitting the fuck out, tell me what you sitting the fuck on then. Cause I don't see y'all on shit. Y'all ain't mobilizing, y'all ain't organizing. Oh don't get me started, don't get me to preaching, don't get me to preaching. Or don't do it. Reconsider, read some litter, be sure about the subject. You sure? Are you sure? Are you sure? You sure you sure? Shit. I'm for damn sure. This is anyway. I digress. This is what I do. This is my process as a creator. I'll take this whole voice note and it will be a podcast. Or I will take this whole voice note and it would be an essay. Or a poem. Or whatever the fuck I decide to be. Because every time I do what I do is true, is real, is raw, is human, is me, is me, human-coded, not trying to be, look, act, be seen as anything other than what the fuck I am. Me. Black Mamba. And if you know my government name, yeah, she. That be her. Me. It ain't hard to find. And even if you do know my government name, what that means? What that mean? Do you know me? Let's just say that. Since I did say me, right? On me. What you know about me? Other than what I've shown you. And if I'm a reflection of you and I'm showing up here, my true self, what you feel about me when you come across my voice? What you say when you hear me talking, Tamley? What y'all be saying to y'all selves? That's a rhetorical question. I'm being facetious. I already know. What you say about me? I ain't got no friends, so let me. You can see why. Motherfuckers be like, I know why she talked to herself. Don't nobody want to fucking talk to her. That girl can go, and I can, and I do, and I will. I got a job to do. This is my mission, my assignment. I can't help what it look like to you. Say what thy will. Do what you want. All I can do is lead the way. You either will or you won't. I didn't mean for that to rhyme either, but it just came out that way. I am a whole hot mess. But if I can't enjoy myself, my own company, who else can? Yeah, I fucks with me. Sure. I guess down by my whole self. And you got to be able to do that to survive mentally, especially when you isolated as we have been. COVID sealed the deal. We're no longer we've been so faux connection, because that's the point that I'm getting to overall. Is that how are we really connecting with people? What are we building when we do connect with people? This is not connection. What you're doing every day for your content meals and your stars and your bonuses and your, you know. That blue check. Whatever, fill in the blank. Digital money keys. I'm pointing that term. That's me. Too. Not monkeys. Don't get it twisted. Just like I say a sheeple, sheep people. Bah. Sheeple. People who are sheep. I am now calling all of you in this content plantation. Money keys. Take that as you will. If the shoe fit, hell, wear it. Because I didn't ask your ass to come over here and try it on. But you did. So you can have that bitch. Wear it proudly. That's all I gotta say. So when you come at me, come with me. Come with me. Hell, Mary Bandamone. What do I do? Do you want to ride it back? Anyway. Yeah. Let me share this up. Let me get up on off of here. Because uh this is going, this is gonna be like a little short thing. We're gonna call it a little bonus, a little bonus bonus. This is a raw voice note. It coming through like I just started podcasting for the first time. I love it. This is why I need my own radio show. Can I get a satellite? Somebody put me in touch. I I get tired of y'all talking about how Mamba, you need to be on the radio. Mamba, why ain't you on the radio? I know nothing about radio. But if you do, and hey, help me. Help me get there. You know, I love to be. I love to be on satellite radio. That's the goal. That's the ultimate goal. I put me there. Put me there. Tell me how. Show me the way. Give me the microphone. Give it to me. Give it to me. I I think I was born for it. And I was so scared of it. So scared. I've hated my voice my whole life. I've hated my voice. Everybody will tell you that. Everybody knows that knows me knows that I have hated my voice. Everybody has an opinion about it. It's exhausting. You know? And those that do have an opinion about it when I say that, because it's not that it's not a compliment. It's not that I don't see it for what it is. You know? Not that I understand the power of voice and words in conjunction with each other. How how people like Hitler or Martin Luther King or Malcolm X or Mussolini or anybody. You know what I'm saying? Without the mind, without the mind, the body cannot survive, cannot live. We've been known that. The mind is like a computer. Your heart don't run shit. Your brain does. Boo. Your heart. Your heart. We call our brain our heart. That's crazy. And I guess our brain is supposed to be what? I mean, it has to be. If the brain is the heart, then the heart is what? Just what it is. A fucking muscle. We so backwards. We so programmed. What is the cheat code? Is the cheat code? I can uh uh what is the cheat code? It's an Easter egg out there. It's elusive. It's it's it's there. I know it's there, I know it's there. This can't all be for nothing. This can't all be for nothing. We can't be out here lost like this for nothing. Such a fucking grand diabolical design that they got to re-engineer every fucking time loop. We got to be fucking powerful. What is it? How do I activate it? Oh anyway. I love y'all. I miss y'all. I have been going through a spiritual awakening. I wrote about it over there on my sub stack. Um 87,000 hours of pain, something like that. Um, go read it. Um, support my work. Um I'm just here to be a light. That's it. I'm just here to be a light in the digital darkness. That's it. That's it. I I'm just trying my best to break the algorithmic chains of bondage that got y'all so fucking sleep. So asleep. I work tirelessly every day to keep my kids safe from the world in such a way that I man. I know they tired of me. My kids get taught lessons all day long. I'm my dad 2.0. But I'm sorry, Othley. He was more of a nager, you know. It wasn't teaching, it was preaching. He preached. My dad preached at us, and that's no fault of his own. Hell, that's patriarchy. That's that's men. That's that's that's what they know. That's what they've been told. That's how they've been raised. That's all they know. And we helped nurture that until it rotted. Women being the de facto oppressors of they men. Look at the state of black love. Anyway, I'm digressing, ain't I? I am, I know. Since I got y'all attention, I'm gonna be doing a live reading of my debut, my uh firstborn digital disobedience. Um, it's a thought that just came up to me randomly today. Everybody knows I'm shy in the sense that of the camera. I love the microphone, but I don't like the camera. I don't like the fact that people are focused on everything else, but what's coming out of my mouth, but people be focused on my mouth, if that makes sense. I think when you're just the voice behind the mic, it adds to whatever illusion you need to create to connect. You're not distracted by my eyebrows, or, you know, if one is arched higher than the other, or, you know, my lips, or if they ashy, or if I got an eye booger or a booger in my nose. I mean, I went live and snotted on camera, guys. Come on now. I'm so glad Facebook is deleting that shit. That's horrible. That's horrible. Facebook makes you feel like you will die if you lose videos and photos. Look at your phone. Go to your like Google Drive, for example, and look at how many thousands of videos you have and thousands of photos you have. And we're constantly buying service. Everything's a subscription. You have to pay for everything now. Pretty soon, yeah. A lot of things you wouldn't imagine is gonna be a subscription service, and it's not a black mirror moment. This is real life. But I digress as I normally do. But what was I talking about? Get me the fuck off this microphone. I love y'all. I love y'all so much and I miss y'all. Um, I'm finishing a book. Um, it's spirit-led, and um I I think it's my greatest work. It's my greatest contribution to society. This is what I can do. This is this is digital disobedience. And and um I hope y'all support it. I'm gonna go live. I'm gonna read a few chapters from uh digital disobedience, do some live QA for those who've read the book. Great. I would love your review. Help your girls stay ranking, get down there and get seen. I don't have a machine behind me. I don't have money for ads. I got a GoFundMe though, you can check out um to help pay for those things. It's very transparent. It shows everything I need and it shows how the money is going to be used and itemized, and that it's not just going into my pocket. It's a separate account, um, receipts and all. I have a plan. I have a goal. I have a Mission. This is the only way I know how to help supplement that vision as a black disabled mother of three beautiful girls. It is what it is. I'm facing a lot right now. Time is short. My health is declining in ways that I never expected to at 45. That I didn't expect for since 2015. I don't even remember how old I was when I received my first diagnosis when my body started breaking down after the malpractice. But um, yeah. Yeah. My spine is completely breaking down. I just had my right hip replaced and my left, yeah, it's starting to give me trouble. And I just can't imagine living with the pain. Uh, I don't want to have to. Oh, I know it's temporary. Y'all don't understand my relationship with pain, but god damn it, just knowing, I can imagine if you've read books and people are tortured in them, or you've watched, you know, fantastical movies as fantasy where people get tortured. It's like the psychological trauma is what happens before the torture. It's not even really the actual torture. The pain fucking hurts. Don't get me wrong. It's like nothing I can describe. My mind can't even articulate it. My brain has shut it down. Like all I can tell you is it's blinding. It's like it's blinding. I I can't tell you anything other than that. Your mind wants to fold in on itself. I can't imagine the torture that Jesus Christ went through. I I can't imagine the torture our enslaved went through. Our women being cut on without anesthesia. And they called it science, said they were willing. We were willing, just like we were willingly giving up babies, just like we was willingly being raped and giving up babies and plowing fields and tobacco, sugar, and cotton. Get the fuck out of here. Get the fuck out of here. Oh, evil incarnate. Just evil. God. And that's why. That's why we're gonna keep repeating this cycle until you motherfuckers decide to understand that your father is Satan. Really? I know it's hard. It's hard to sit a child down and admit that their father is Satan, just as well for the child to understand that that is so. Your mind will fold on itself too. You can't you can't contend with the reality that you are manufactured. Your whiteness, your privilege is manufactured. You're a caste system. Frontline soldiers, sandbags, willing, cheap dogs. If you read my book, I tell you to research Bacon's rebellion. And no, I'm not doing research and sighting shit for this episode. I've done the work repetitively. And the research, again, is in my book. Go buy it. Go read it. Go rage at it, throw it away, rip it up. I don't care. At least feel something that lets you know at least you're still human. But if you're other, if you're an otherworldly demonic changeling, if you're empire, if you wear a white face but bleed green, then that don't apply to you. Go read my book. That's all I'm gonna say. I ain't got time. I ain't gonna turn this into anything else. I done went sideways. This I just have to move where the spirit leads me. That's all that I can say. Because initially I was just gonna screen record, and then the next thing I know I'm talking, and the next thing I know I'm on a voice note. And now I gotta go do a whole new screenshot where you get to hear my voice again. So this is gonna be the introduction and the ending because it's just gonna end on that. I'm not gonna come back and uh do no call to action. I'm not gonna come back and excuse me. I ain't even finna edit this. Yes, I just burped. Ron unfiltered. I am the unrealized version of a black woman, Howard Stern. Really? I'm too conscious. All you people who told me you too deep. You deep. It ain't that deep. Everything ain't that deep. Why you always gotta, you know, they ain't got time. They ain't got time for deepness. They ain't got time for conversation. They ain't got time for deep thoughts, critical thoughts. They ain't got time to read books. They ain't got time. They ain't got time. They got time to be entertained. Go. They got time to dance. They got time to twerk. What's that new video out there about that girl, Pluto, or whatever they calling her? And she out there looking like a 14-year-old girl from what little bit I saw, because that was just how fast I cut that shit off. Um just young girls talking about shake something. You know, he wanna spend something. You know, oh my God, how can you not see the indoctrination of your own people? I just, it's like they clone Tyrone and still, still, this is what it looks like. That video, sexy red, all that shit. That's what it looks like. A whole fucking they clone Tyrone. And in essence, that's exactly what it means. Everything from the hair products, everything from the chicken to the food to the steroids they put in it to, you know, now our girls having periods at seven and eight years old. And y'all call that shit normal. Y'all call that shit normal. The pharmaceutical industry is normal. Oh, this shit is normal. That's life. That's life. That's the life you want. That's the life you want. We we create our realities. What we perceive to be is what, you know, we create. Manifest destiny, right? But not in empire sense. And if you know what I mean, you know what I mean. And if you read a book, you would know what I mean. Go read my book, Digital Disobedience. A very small price to pay for some critical streams of consciousness that could save your child's life, that could save your mama's life, your daddy's life, uh, hell. A king locked behind bars life, somebody life. Hell. That's the purpose. You ain't gotta read it then. Oh, I don't read books. I'm, I don't, I don't want to purchase something I'm not gonna use. I don't, I'm not a reader, I don't read books, then motherfucker, tell somebody about it then. You know a reader in your life, and if you don't, damn, I forget. Birds of a feather flock together because readers know readers, damn it. And if you are a reader of books, then tell somebody about the book, share the book, please. I wrote it for not only you all, not only for my kids, but for everybody who comes in contact with my voice, with my work, with my words. I wrote it for you. I wrote it for you. I didn't write it for me. I didn't write it for a jack. I ain't made no money. Damn. I got family ain't even supported this goddamn project. That's sad as fuck. That lets you know the state of our world, the state of the black family, the state of our community. After school today, picking up my daughters, seeing my uh my ratings. I I I did a little social experiment and all the black teachers, because this is a black school, they passing by. I'm telling them, hey, you want to do me a favor? I'm telling them, hey, you know what? This is how you can help me. You can help, you know, simply go research my book. Just type it in Google, please. You know, your click will help me in the algorithm. We'll see movement, you know. It's gonna trigger movement. I could use some extra movement today. So your girl was out here hawking for for some damn uh clicks today. Like, hey, type in digital disobedience and black mama. No, not black. B-L-A-K-K M-O-M-A. No, not Kobe. Ain't got nothing to do with Kobe, and that ain't how you spell Black Mamba. No, no, no, no, no. If you want to know about the name Black Mamba and how it came about, then hell, go listen to my first episode. Let me reintroduce myself. I'm not getting into that. Everybody who know me knows how Black Mamba came about and can hear the story too. But um, it ain't got nothing to do with Kobe. No, no, no. Just yeah, just do that for me, please. You know, I had motherfuckers just, oh, okay, and just walk by. They had the cell phones in their hand. That's why I asked them. Because everywhere I fucking go, taking my kids, dropping them off, and picking them up. All I see is teachers with their phone in their hand, with their head down. So why the fuck not? Hell, you ain't watching shit. What you out here for? You looking at the content on your phone. You can't function. The shit surgically attached to your hand. Hell, you leave that bitch at home. You gonna think you left your baby in a hot car in the backseat. How fast your ass get back there to go grab it and get it? Then it made you feel like you have to be constantly connected. To what? To who? What emergency can happen that you, that, that, that, that, what can you do about it in a moment, other than show up with your presence? They make you feel like if you if this phone is not with you, that your life can end today. Somebody's life could end today, and you won't know it. And it's all because I didn't have my phone. Or, you know, hey, you gotta have a cell phone these days. You know what I mean? You might get lost, you know. Somebody might try to traffic y'all, kidnap y'all, you know. You gotta have your phone. You might get a flat tire. I mean, damn, what did people do before cell phones? I fucking wonder. And I can understand times have changed and we are in the age of machines, goddammit. But hell, if I go to the grocery store and leave my fucking phone behind, I'm not turning around to go get my fucking phone. Okay? For one, I'm a single mama. That's gas. That phone just don't have to wait. Everybody I love is either with me or at home, and I'm trusting that they're covered until I get back. I'm not finna sit here and agonize about what FOMO of not having my phone. They got y'all so brainwashed. But I digress again, Lord. Just let me get off of here. Just let me get off the let me get off of here. Y'all get to get a peek into my mind, palette's crazy. And I did this for approximately 43 minutes, apparently. And I just did not know. That's how fast time goes. It's a construct, I know. Ew, it's a construct. If you cannot see the days moving by fast, what are you doing? What are you doing? I don't know what's happening to time right now. And it has nothing to do with me getting older. Nothing to do with me getting older. The day is literally over as soon as I open my eyes. I feel time speeding. I don't, I'm just gonna have to be crazy on that. I ain't even finna go deep into that into how I feel. I don't know how to tell y'all how I'm feeling time right now. Not in a way that people will believe because hell, y'all been taught that everything is fantasy, everything is science fiction. They done Hollywood done made you clap for the shit that they done predicted and shown you. I mean, damn, we are the biggest psychological slash social experiment in history. Fucking rats in a fucking maze, calling it life. My babies will never see the 80s childhood. My babies will never know what it's like. That kind of childhood. That that kind of freedom to just be a kid. They can no longer be kids anymore. That's the tragedy. That's what Empire has stolen from me and mine. Their childhood. Generation Alpha's childhood. They have stolen it from my children. That should be a topic for another time. But I have written about it in my new book, Coded for Extinction. And I'm hoping to have that dropped by uh by uh Thanksgiving. That's my that's my goal. Um I'm nearly there. Um it's a living book. Uh it's written in real time. A lot of it is real-time thoughts. Um, some of them are talk-to-text. There's poetry. Um there is so much packed into this book, and I'm telling you now, it's 200 pages. Oops. I'm sorry. 200,000 pages. Don't ask me how that happened. Don't ask me how that happened. Uh, 50,000 of them will include the book within the book, basically, which is the shot heard around the world, which was my autopsy of Empire, a dissection of the Charlie Kirk assassination, that will live inside the book. And that in itself is 50,000 words alone. And if you follow my substack, then you got a preview of a of that over there, a shot, the shot heard around the world. There is a preview with several, not several, I mean like three, three, three or four uh different uh sections of that book that I share with you all, but that will live inside Coded for Extinction. It will be an audiobook as well. Um, this will be my first audiobook project for myself. I've done it for others. Shout out to Victor M. Cunningham. He just dropped another book. Um, and I'm I guess it'll be here tomorrow. I'll be uh recording another book, and I'm excited about that. I need to figure out what that book is, and my laptop is away, but I'll make sure to uh put it in the show notes. I think it's No More Kings. I forgot what he said, but I thank him so much. He called me today, and I don't think y'all understand what impact means. I think we look at it, we try to measure it and quantify it, and it can't, it can't. Impact to me means what happens after you drop a stone into a water, after it makes impact. What happens? It's the ripples, it's the ripple effects, it's how small they start out and how much bigger and wider they get. And to me, it's like a net as well. You drag a net, a drag net. You you're gonna get junk, you're gonna get all kind of shit in that in that net that you don't need. Majority of it is. But in there is a few gems. And that's uh and that's what I uh that's what I do. And that and that brings it back to connection. A dragnet out there. A dragnet. Connect, connect with people, and you will find some gems. Um But I didn't find I didn't find Mr. Victor. Mr. Victor found me. And he has a podcast episode with me that will be coming up for the King Sun Chain season. I guess I knew you need to mention that as well. Um, because the screenshot and conversation that you will hear is like 10 minutes only. So um, if you're wondering how much more you gotta listen to me drone on. But um, but yeah, he found me. And uh it was divine timing. And I got to narrate Morning Moe to Go for him, and he offered me to narrate his follow-up book, Morning Moe to Go Refill edition. And not only that, he also gave me the honor and privilege of writing his preface for his book. I I had, I've only ever had one truly published work in my life, and that was in high school, and a poetry book that everybody could pay for and send, and and they'll put your poem in a book with others. I thought that was the nicest and cooling, coolest thing back then as a teenager. I don't even know what happened to that poetry book and what I submitted. Where is that book? I gotta find that note to Tanya. Look into that. That would be so cool to find something I wrote. What a time capsule. Um, but yeah. What was I saying? I forget myself. Don't mind me. Um, it's my brain and how it works because of pain. I can fit forget conversations as I am having them. But yes, there, I was talking about Mr. Victor. He allowed me to write the preface, and um, it was really my first published, you know, contribution to someone else's work, a real author. And I told him he don't know how much he inspired me to write my own book. It's something I've always talked about, wanted to do, talked about. I even had my first book idea. My first book was not digital disobedience. It was never meant to be. I had a specific first book in mind, and my heart of all hearts, I had a book. And Brandon Moore, who also has a conversation coming up on McKing's Unchained, and that's what I was talking about. Um, I told him about the concept. He's the only one. Very few people in my life know the concept for this book. And I told him about it. And and I and I told him, you know, that I wanted collaboration with him on that project. And next thing I know, I'm writing something I never meant to write. But I was always meant to write, if that makes sense. Digital disobedience is my debut book. Coded for Extinction is the companion follow-up book in a massive way. And um, and I attribute that to a lot of that to Mr. Victor. It shifted me out of gear and gave me the confidence that I can do this. Um, just like he gave me the confidence in my first narration job. Um, it was divine timing, our interaction and us him connecting with me. I was exactly what he wanted. And we've been rocking ever since. And he has another book out, and he called today and told me that I inspired him, that this book is left fields of his normal writing style. After listening to a siloquy from me, a sample of my book that I read to him. And it inspired him so much to join the resistance, as he said. So he wanted to call and tell me how proud he was to join the resistance. I got my first official digital resistance. He actively said, I am here to join the resistance. I've officially joined the resistance, is what he said to me. And I don't think y'all know as a writer, as a creator who shows up as themselves to be seen by somebody you've never seen. Is I mean, we've had video chat conversations and stuff. Um, and we've developed such an amazing relationship. Every time we talk, um we we might spend an hour, at least an hour on the phone. Um he he's another person that that that lives beneath the surface of life um uh and and survives in the deep end. And that's what I love. Every time I know I talk to Mr. Victor, it's going to be a substantial conversation, an impactful conversation, a necessary conversation. Um there is no point in our time that we connect where we are not building um not only each other up, but just, you know, building ideas, talking about life, philosophy, just the world. It's a great exchange of energy. I have that all day today. I am blessed. If I can say that and close on that, I will before I do. Kings Unchained will be back as soon as I get done with the spirit-led work. I haven't forgot about you, fellas. Andy, running for attorney general out there in Illinois. I haven't forgot about you. Chris, your conversation. Um, talking about the criminal justice system. I haven't forgot about you, brother. Brandon, I haven't forgot about you. Mr. Victor, I haven't forgot about you. Demario, I haven't forgot about you. There are so many of you that have recorded with me or are waiting to record with me. And I got you. I just need you to understand that right now, your messages is not gonna be heard. Okay. Although they are important conversations, I want to make sure I deliver them during a time that they will be impactful. Because right now, the algorithms are deciding what's trending: snap, food stamps, new world order, authoritarianism, dictatorship, all these things that are leading to a system collapse of our world. And right now, my spirit has redirected me to an assignment and that takes precedent. Okay. But I promise you, I promise you, I promise you, they'll be released somehow. And if not, and if not by me, then by my next generation, they'll get it out there to you. Okay. And I appreciate y'all. Thanks for supporting me. Thanks for sending me the pictures of y'all wearing my shirt. Thank y'all for having these impactful and important conversations with me, okay? I really do believe that these are healing conversations for our brothers and sisters, and they need to be heard. But I want to make sure that they get heard. You know what I mean? It's so much noise out there right now. I don't want to, not that you are noise, but that's how it's gonna be considered. It's gonna take back seat to everything else, and y'all deserve to have the spotlight. And I hope you can understand that. But with that said, I gotta finish my book and I will. Um, I'll let y'all know. Stay tuned. I'm gonna be going live, doing a live reading here real soon. Stay tuned. I'm gonna announce that on Facebook, and it may just be with the a collaboration with the tunnel stream team, the hottest underground radio station in the land, online, on iHeart, on Spotify, anywhere else you want to go find.
