“It takes a special person to do something, when everyone else is standing by..” - Lightning (from CW show, ‘Black Lightning’) In old neighborhood behind central ave, there was street racing on Thurs. night. Went on for yrs. Rather than speaking up, people put up w/it for yrs.”

Letting my dad and brother borrow my car in the mid afternoons and evenings for a while...as I have the privilege of working from home...Hope remote work opportunities continue...

If you like the animated “Justice League” or “Justice League Unlimited” series, you’re going to love “Invincible” series on Amazon Prime...great show, can’t wait till the next few seasons come out...

Oh did u no what’s an awesome snack! Hokkaido cream rolls from cold food section at HMart or from wherever they keep snacks/breads in other Asian supermarkets. simple Japanese bun snack.-Chinese friend introduced them 2 me. yrs ago, I’d eat them like 3-4 @ a time-simple but good!

In reference to my tweet 9 hrs ago (early morning), regarding the quote from Black Lightning show on the CW, it reminds me of something that happened in my freshman year at the college I was in, before I transferred to Albany-

When I was dorming in the dormitory referred to as CIW, a lot of the other freshman in the hall outside my dorm room, and my roommate, were talking about, checking out, and gathering around a website called “do not tell Ryan dot com” -

- through the commotion, I found out about it too. Ryan lived in a dorm on the same campus where it was suite style. He lived with 4-6 others with a common room and a single bathroom reserved for them all. The other 5 roommates got the brilliant idea of connecting a camera -

- to website in Ryan’s room and not telling him about. Ryan would go on doing his personal stuff-whatever that may be-thinking he was in the privacy of his space. People like animals got together to talk and check out the website. When walking by Ryan on campus, he might’ve seen-

- giggles, whispers, or some sign of affirmation that something was up involving him. At the time, I was busy with classes and didn’t have the interest to focus on the website. At that time and I guess age, without someone putting the idea to tell Ryan about it, I didn’t give -

- being a friend to this guy or just a good human being to this guy, a second thought. After the issue with Ryan wAs resolved with authority figures and some time passed and I had time to think, I wondered to myself why I didn’t tell Ryan, even though he was no one to me-

-it may have come off random or him seeing me as an intrusive stranger, but I would have had the salvation of ���helping someone, truly.” When I came to that realization, I got over my, “staying silent about problems “, and went to seek solutions. If something like Ryan were to-

- happen again, I’d definitely go and tell the other person, especially if it’s a matter of human dignity and right and wrong, or because of random hype, I thought he/she (person “I’m”helping) is worthy of a friendship. I mean, it like the story of the woman baking cake, was it?-- she asked her network or circle, 2-3 people, if they would help her make the cake. They all denied help and came up with excuses. When the cake was ready, those same people who wouldn’t help “make” the cake, were ready to “eat” her solo hard work cake. -

- not willing to struggle with a person or do the hard thing when it counts, but ready to jump at the rewards? To be blunt and a little...I dunno the word...prideful, disgusting?...I mean if it were me, if I go out of my way and expense to put myself in a different world-

- (and different from my post college,post bar/party life, remote job life, or whatever else), and clarify points by talking to myself or tweeting or facebooking or networking, and people do what someone else says to them...then well, sorry, I survived 11 years without you, -

- and in the years after, like the woman with the cake, I won’t need you later. “Love one another as you love yourself.” It’s clear most people don’t love themselves or can think beyond mechanical, established means of volunteering, community service, whatever. -

- read my tweets from the beginning, going backwards. There aren’t that many. Don’t just bookmark my page/link and peer, follow me on Twitter...let me know there are real genuine people, where I’m not wasting my time.

-When 1 of my tweets tells a story or a point & it continues from 1 tweet to the next, they’ll begin and/or end with “-“ . It’s a sign of continuation. In such continuation cases, gotta go backward with tweets, past tweets with “-“ ,& read from the beginning, scrolling bottom-up.
