Who is your biggest crush on right now?
03 / 02 / 2024
Hey! Thanks for this interesting question! 😁
My biggest crushes are the ones I'd love as much to be enslaved by or being in couple with. The Australian actor KJ Apa, the American superhero Sam Wilson and the Prince William Of Wales are my biggest crushes for countless reasons.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
- The first one is their beauty. The three of them are tall, muscled and smiling, physical qualities i appreciate about men.
Also, they are always well dressed, whether it's cool, classy or sporty.
- They are talented in what they do : KJ Apa is a great singer and actor, i can't wait to see him in more movies or TV series ; Sam Wilson / Captain America is a strong and brave superhero, Prince William is really clever and dedicated to his people.
- They also represents some stereotypes of men I'd love to be in couple with : KJ Apa is a cocky and cute actor who is famous for his role of a sexy jock ; Sam Wilson is a superhero and my favorite Marvel male character ; Prince William Of Wales is the definition of the modern Prince Charming, and i grew up dreaming of finding my own.
- They also carry their heritage really well: KJ Apa recently became the new chief of the local trieb he comes from, which inspired me a story that should be publish soon if i end it ; Sam Wilson is the best Captain America to me for the way he tries to save everyone despite their differences ; and HRH Prince William Of Wales is the best person who serves currently the British monarchy with his lovely wife Princess Catherine.
- They also have godly bodies, as i said. I love them physically however they are, i mean whatever their haircut is, for example. If i could pick only one part to worship for each of them it would be :
KJ Apa's armpits
Tumblr media
Here is a link about the actor's armpits. It proves I'm not the only one to be turned on!
Sam Wilson's butt, as i explained here
And for Prince William Of Wales, it would be his feet. I would like to be publicly thanks my dear friend and occasionally co-author @tidodore2 for having made some of the amazing pics that will illustrate my upcoming story about Prince William and his servants. They represents exactly what i had in mind about him being worshipped like a nice god.
Tumblr media
If i could chose what I'd like to be for each of them, if i can't be their boyfriends, I'd like to be KJ Apa's loser, Sam Wilson's lover, Prince William's servant. That is kind of what i described in the stories i already wrote about them.
Indeed, they are also the one who inspired me some of my best / favorite stories.
For KJ Apa, I'll soon publish a new story where i imagine myself as his boyfriend because he is my ideal man for a white man. Cute and funny, strong and dominant, kind and tender, gassy and slob but also sexy... 💖
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In this link you'll find everything you need to know about KJ Apa : my 4 MAN OF THE DAY articles (currently the Alpha Man Celeb i wrote the most about, with God Chris Hemsworth and God Henry Cavill), my stories about him,...
For Sam Wilson, I was inspired by the fact that i saw him at Disneyland Paris and i missed the opportunity to talk to him. In this story i described my dream to become his boyfriend because he represents my ideal man : a tall muscled confident Black hero. ❤️
Tumblr media

For His Royal Highness Prince William Of Wales, the link of my story about him is here :
I'll soon publish the entire story about him. It's still time to send me your ideas about it.

JUNETEENTH. Until *very* recently many people had never heard of this holiday. I shudder to think how many people are jumping on the Juneteenth bandwagon without fully understanding its importance. But that’s why I’m a historian. I’m here to teach YOU! 🥳👉🏼Let’s dive in: Juneteenth is a day of remembrance, action, and celebration for Black lives. #Juneteenth, also known as #EmancipationDay or #FreedomDay, is celebrated annually on June 19th. It’s meant to commemorate the end of slavery in the United States, but like most brief definitions, that’s far from the whole story. Let’s start with some definitions: 🔒Chattel Slavery: In the Americas was a form of enslavement from the 1520s to 1860s in which enslaved Africans were bought, sold, traded, and inherited like “chattel” or property. Unlike indentured servitude, enslavement was passed down from mother to child. 🕊 Emancipation Proclamation: The Emancipation Proclamation (1863) was an order signed by Abraham Lincoln to destabilize the Confederate States. 📜 13th Amendment: Ratified on Dec. 6, 1865, it banned slavery and involuntary servitude, except in the case of punishment for a crime. 🎯 Back to Juneteenth: Texas, which has seceded during the Civil War ignored the proclamation which was issued by an outside government (the Union 🇺🇸) and continued to hold people in the bondage of slavery. On June 19, 1865, one month after the Civil War ended AND THE CONFEDERACY LOST, Union soldiers reached Texas and announced that enslaved people were now free. Seven months later, the 13th Amendment was finally ratified. 🔔 FREEDOM IS SOMETHING TO CELEBRATE 🔔 But newly freed people had no possessions, no land, no protection, and no formal education. We are their descendants. We made a way out of no way. Our lives matter. #BlackLivesMatter

What is this
Precisely Watson! Perfectly stated. Short and factual. I've been pretty sure that this is all a product of the connected social media world we have created. It gives a voice to everyone and this Cancer of hate is extremely infectious. I don't know what the answer is other than secession, but I don't foresee these two sides ever coming together ever again. I've never voted and I've watched this country unfold for 58 years now. I watched every political battle since Carter in 1976. This country has gone through some amazing events, civil wars, world wars, terrorism, modernization, past every planet, walked on the Moon, and elected a Black American to be the President of the United States of America 🇺🇸 shyte even i cried that day. Still love the fact that I lived thru that day, I felt that the country finally made it to the apex of what America stood for. And holy shyte, I could've never predicted where we are in society in a million years. This is the trippiest of times. People are trying to change their sex and their body parts. People are cutting off their children's genitals. If you told me that was coming in 1980, I would've bet my house against it and I would've lost. This is the strangest of times, a bit nervy, and scary. It sometimes feels like I'm in a Twilight Zone episode and that's when i really shyte my pants. I do my best to turn off the news. I turned it off when President Trump wielded the executive order pen and was exploding everything Obama did. I went to the inauguration and saw people crying in the streets, and burning flags. Didn't really like that, I've never seen a reason to do that. That's the ultimate "you don't give a shyte" attitude so now you're just going to make things worse for society by destroying other people's property or stealing, and basically doing nothing positive. I don't relate to that but I can honestly say that I was like that at 17yrs old maybe till 25. Then I realized I need to do something with my life or I'm going to be bitching forever. I got to work as busboy, then bartender, roofer, steel worker, draftsman, airline employee, software engineer. Wound up traveling the world when I was in my 30's and 20 yrs later started a foundation for special needs young adults with my wife. It's been one crazy journey living in the greatest country in the world. But today, these are grievous times we live in, and without war or strife even. It's purely groups of hate that have infected society. In my journey, I've worked with every type of person imaginable. Worked with at least 500 to 1000 gay people in the airline industry, never had a problem. I worked on the ramp and I was the minority. There was the Puerto Rican group, the Cuban group, New Jersey black Americans, Africans from Ghana...I felt I got along with everyone. Everyone had their own clique. And they enjoyed socializing in their groups. Ticket counter had the gay groups. I don't remember any hate. Today, if you don't preach hate then you're not IN, you're uncool, you're unacceptable. Democrats preach hate to their children, Republicans preach hate to their children. I'll never vote, I can't pick a side that I believe in. I'm just on a small wooden raft floating on the waves of the American Flag and the waves are going up and down like mad right now. I think that's exactly what it is. It's a madness that's infected society. And Obama released the hounds with BLM in the first few months of his 2nd term. Obama never gave them a voice. He stirred the BLM pot over and over. When he did nothing about Eric Garner who was sat on by six police officers and died, I didn't understand why Obama didn't step up, still don't. That was his time to address the new Rodney King. Eric didn't even steal anything. He was selling cigaretttes...individually. As in one at a time. And he lost his life. Then the ultimate travesty of all time, was when Tamir Rice was shot by a police officer as he played with a toy gun all alone in a park gazebo. Cop just drove up and shot him. Obama did nothing. Absolutely nothing...

Swadagentleman made a diss track towards me and capitalize off me as a black man. He’s a sellout along with his friends and I’m sitting here as a black man in America, being told by my own people to sit down and be happy. Shut up and dribble. I’m not following that stereotype. Even when we as black writers are told to write our feelings down, white folks say good job on that instead of having long uncomfortable conversations about what we went through. They pick and choose what to be outraged about, and claim they are “Real Christian Americans”. 🇺🇸 NO! I’m tired of being told to calm down and be happy. I wanna tear up the messed up system here in America and keep talking about what’s going on in our world ‘till I go down (death). FUCK SWADAGENTLEMAN. You should have held me accountable PEACEFULLY AND MATURELY! You 36 years old, but act like you’re 10 years old. FUCK YOU!

Posted @withregram • @chantestrength “I CAN’T BREATHE.” 🇺🇸💔 Last year I officially emigrated from America to Iceland. I get asked pretty frequently if I miss America. My answer is always “I miss my family and friends, but I don’t miss America.” Some people think that maybe I’m jaded from having lived there my entire life, but the answer is really that I don’t feel like I belong in my own country. I feel like purely existing as a black woman is a crime. I have been followed around stores to make sure I’m not stealing anything. I’ve been checked before leaving a store without making a purchase as a “random security check.” I have anxiety attacks when cops are driving behind me, hoping that I didn’t catch the eye of the wrong cop at the wrong time, because as we’ve seen that could mean that it’s my last day on earth. Black people in America have been made to feel like we don’t belong. Like WE CAN’T BREATHE. Like we are less than human. Like our existence is a crime. Those sworn to serve and protect see our existence as a threat because of the built-in hatred and racism that has plagued America for hundreds of years. I am so proud of all of my countrymen who are out there protesting this injustice. I wish I could stand with you. Time is up. We have had ENOUGH. We are no longer sitting idly and silently by while you make our skin color out to be a crime. While you SLAUGHTER US in the streets. Black lives do and have always mattered. It’s time that our government and police forces believe and act as if that is true. We need change and we need it NOW. Register to VOTE. Show up to the polls. Let’s use our rights to get the change we so desperately need! We need EVERYONE ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻 posted on Instagram - https://instagr.am/p/CBGuAv2g08y/

God's timing is perfection, but for me, it's too close for comfort!
We ARMED radical militants of Islam by abandoning weapons in Afghanistan, and NOW 🇺🇸 we are weaponizing neo-Nazis! Just where do you think some of that Military hardware is headed 🕎?

Who are you handing BILLIONS in Military hardware OFF, to?

Azov, Ukraine's Insurgent Army is a pro-nazi partisan group (anti-semitic), active since the SECOND 💥 World War.
Ukrainians, led by STEPAN BANDERA, would ally themselves with German forces, and become ACTIVE participants in the Holocaust, directly killing thousands of Jews and an estimated 100,000 Poles. Their red and black flags remain a symbol of Ukrainian fascism. The colours are a prominent feature of an annual torchlit parade through Kyiv, held by pro-nazis to honor Bandera.

From Ambassador Gandalf: ... "The danger to America is not Joe Biden, but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of a Biden presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Biden, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Biden, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools, such as those who made him their president." ...
It's an often repeated and paraphrased commentary.  Usually adjusted to fit some politicians when the electorate recognizes their error.  
No electorate wants as their "ruler" one that makes any Liberty "conditioned" on their own actions.  They will always choose service to one who promises Utopia for all;  "I" (alone) will give you ("fo' free!") all your needs regardless of your achievement; aka, "affirmative action".
... And so it goes to a Godless society, "we have no King!"  Release the murderer, Barabbas!  (Lk.23:13-25)

The key is Jn.1:11 and Lk.12:54-56. "He came to His own, His own received Him Not...". Furthermore, "His own" make better meteorologists than they do discerners of the "appointed seasons" of the Lord. We try to pin titles like "antichrist" or "beast" on various individuals, and are blind to understanding the Spirit of the parables through which Jesus taught His disciples, and the Holy Spirit convicts in Truth.

Pence to Give RNC Speech From Site That Inspired US National Anthem
U.S. Vice President Mike Pence will speak to the Republican National Convention Wednesday night from Maryland’s Fort McHenry, site of the 1814 battle that inspired what is now the U.S. national anthem.
The National Park Service announced Monday that the site would be closed Tuesday and Wednesday for a “first amendment event.” 
The choice is in character for Pence, who quoted Abraham Lincoln in a video released Tuesday, and who has previously leaned on themes of American patriotism and the legacy of the nation’s early days.
America is the Land of OPPORTUNITY! #RNC2020 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/KIMDm5SKlF
— Mike Pence (@Mike_Pence) August 26, 2020
Storied site
In 1814, the U.S. and Great Britain were still embroiled in the War of 1812. At 6 a.m. on September 13 of that year, 5,000 British soldiers and a fleet of 19 ships launched an attack on Fort McHenry, which protected the Baltimore harbor. Under heavy rain, the British military shelled the fort for 25 hours.
Lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key was stuck on a ship watching the bombardment while he helped negotiate the release of a U.S. civilian captured in an earlier battle.
On the morning of September 14, Key saw the fort’s garrison flag waving, having replaced the smaller storm flag flown during the attack. On the back of a letter, Key scrawled down the first stanza of a poem, “Defence of Fort M’Henry,” which eventually became known as The Star-Spangled Banner.
The flag he wrote about was a massive cotton and wool creation 9 meters (30 feet) high by 13 meters (42 feet) long. Major George Armistead, the commanding officer, had said ahead of the battle that he wanted "to have a flag so large that the British will have no difficulty in seeing it from a distance," according to the National Park Service. 
In this May 25, 2020, file photo President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump depart after participating in a Memorial Day ceremony at Fort McHenry National Monument and Historic Shrine in Baltimore.
Key’s song gained popularity as a patriotic ditty, especially during and after the American Civil War in the 1860s. It wasn’t until March 3, 1931, that Congress made The Star-Spangled Banner the U.S. national anthem in a resolution signed into law by President Herbert Hoover.
The lyrics hide a complicated history with race. While a line in the first stanza of Key’s poem professes admiration for the “land of the free,” a line in the third stanza alludes to “pollution” left by the “foul footsteps” of slaves who fought for the British.
Himself a slaveholder from a Maryland plantation family, Key argued cases against the abolitionist movement during his eight-year stint as U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia. He co-founded the American Colonization Society to send free Black people “back” to Africa, a movement that eventually resulted in the founding of Liberia.
Played and sung at nearly every major U.S. sporting event, many professional athletes have refused to stand for the anthem, as is customary, in protest of police brutality and racial injustice. The anthem protests have been a common target for Republican critics.
Pence himself, one of the Republican National Convention’s Wednesday headliners, is expected to give a robust defense of President Donald Trump with Fort McHenry in the background. His wife, Karen Pence, and White House counselor Kellyanne Conway will also speak Wednesday.
Preparations for Pence’s speech hit a snag Tuesday when a forklift damaged a brick walkway at the site. The damage sparked criticism that the National Park Service had pushed through the special use event permit too quickly.
This is what they were afraid of: The Coalition to Protect America’s National Parks has been warning the NPS cutting corners at Ft McHenry for RNC event could lead to damage...and concerns mounting now that it has. Photos of damaged brick walkway inside the fort. pic.twitter.com/QEZqiMtLnE
— Kate Amara (@kateamaraWBAL) August 25, 2020
The Maryland Republican Party, as the permit holder, is liable for damages and the associated costs.
It was unclear how many people were set to attend the speech, but the city of Baltimore limits outdoor gatherings to 25 people due to the coronavirus pandemic. Protests, both in car caravans and on foot, are expected.

🇺🇸 What progress has Black America made since MLK's assassination? | Inside Story by Al Jazeera English This week the world has been honouring the memory of Martin Luther King Junior. King had a dream. It was to live in a society where people were judged by their character rather than the color of their skin. But that dream was shattered by an assassin's bullet on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee, on April 4, 1968. The Civil Rights champion was just 39 years old. Five decades later, on the anniversary of his death, people across the US, and the world, paused, to remember what happened and what King stood for. How much progress have Black Americans made in the struggle to achieve racial and economic equality? Presenter: Dareen AbuGhaida Guests: Reverend Bernard Lafayette, a lifelong civil rights activist who was appointed by Martin Luther King to direct the Alabama voter registration project in 1962. Vincent Warren, the executive director of the Centre for Constitutional Rights. Tami Sawyer, a social justice activist and director of diversity and cultural competence at Teach For America.

MOVIE RECOMMANDATION #9 :
BLACK ADAM (2022)
Today I wanted to talk to you about the movie Black Adam that I went to see when it came out. Centered on Black Adam, a little-known hero of the DC universe, the film is funny and full of action.
The story is that of Teth Adam, a slave who became overpowered through magic. He belongs to a very ancient civilization. Nowadays, his country is invaded and the people need a hero. When the hero wakes up, he finds himself confronted by the Justice Society, a group of superheroes. These will sometimes fight or ally themselves with Black Adam, because an evil crown is the object of many desires...
Tumblr media
The film is very well paced, there is a good alternation between the discussions to know the characters and the action scenes that make us admire their strength. The characters and actors are varied. I was surprised to see Pierce Brosnan in this kind of film, far from action films like James Bond or comedies like Mamma Mia!. In addition, there is Noah Centineo, best known for his roles in romantic comedies in Netflix. For his second film role, is always funny, but sometimes a little too much. There is a lot of people that fantasize about tall men and giants, so being crushed by Atom Smacher would be an honor, and the man is sexy.
What is certain is that no one other than Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson could embody the main character so well. Naturally impressive and endearing at times, analepsis makes us understand its origins. He has a beautiful connection with the human Adrianna who will push him to use his strength for good.
This is precisely the particularity of Black Adam: he does Good, but by being violent. Its violence and its brutality are justified, and what is good is that there is a reflection on what is a hero, a villain, an anti-hero.
Tumblr media
The Justice Society is made up of diverse characters, but it's still a shame that Cyclone, the only girl in the group, didn't get more voice time. I also think that the members of the team will be criticized for their resemblance to Marvel characters.
Cyclone looks like Tornado, Atom Smacher reminds me of Ant-Man, Doctor Fate looks a lot like Doctor Strange (for his powers and a bit of his personality), and Hawkman, here a black man, reminded me a lot of Sam Wilson / Falcon / Captain America. However, they have a real identity of their own.
Tumblr media
The costumes, sets and music are really good. The action scenes are well staged, there are a lot of references to the DC universe, and I think this film will be as successful as Aquaman. There is a mixture between adventure film and political and psychological reflections which makes this film smarter than it seems at first sight.
Obviously, it will be very difficult not to be robbed of the post-credits scene. I would not say what it is even if many clues could make us understand what it was going to talk about. I was however pleasantly surprised, and I was not the only one since me and other spectators applauded.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This film is surely not going to revolutionize anything in the superhero genre, but it is very entertaining and also moving, and that is enough to make it great.
I give it a score of 16/20, and I encourage you to tell me if you've seen it: if so, tell me in the comments what you thought of it.
See you soon my friends 😀

RECOMMANDATION D'UN FILM #9
CRITIQUE DE FILM : BLACK ADAM (2022)
Aujourd'hui je voulais vous parler du film Black Adam que j'ai été voir à sa sortie. Centré sur Black Adam, héros peu connu de l'univers DC, le film est drôle et plein d'action.
L'histoire est celle de Teth Adam, un esclave devenu surpuissant grâce à de la magie. Il appartient à une civilisation très ancienne. De nos jours, son pays est envahi et le peuple a besoin d'un héros. Lors du réveil du héros, celui-ci se retrouve confronté à la Société de Justice, un groupe de super-héros. Ceux-ci vont tantôt combattre ou s'allier à Black Adam, car une couronne maléfique fait l'objet de nombreuses convoitises...
Le film est très bien rythmé, il y a une bonne alternance entre les discussions pour connaître les personnages et les scènes d'actions qui nous font admirer leur force.
Tumblr media
Les personnages et les acteurs sont variés. J'ai été surpris de voir Pierce Brosnan dans ce genre de film, loin des films d'action comme James Bond ou les comédies comme Mamma Mia!. De plus, Noah Centineo, pour son deuxième rôle au cinéma, est toujours drôle, mais parfois un peu trop. Pourtant, je pense que nombreux sont ceux qui fantasment sur les gens grands et même géants. Imaginer être écrasé par Atom Smacher serait véritablement un honneur.
Ce qui est sûr, c'est que personne d'autre que Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson pouvait incarner aussi bien le personnage principal. Naturellement impressionnant et attachant par moments, des analepses nous font comprendre ses origines. Il a une belle connection avec l'humaine Adrianna qui va le pousser à utiliser sa force pour faire le Bien.
C'est justement la particularité de Black Adam : il fait le Bien, mais en étant violent. Sa violence et sa brutalité sont justifiés, et ce qui est bien c'est qu'il y a une réflexion sur ce qu'est un héros, un méchant, un anti-héros.
Tumblr media
La Société de Justice est composée de personnages divers, mais il reste dommage que Cyclone, la seule fille du groupe, n'est pas eu plus de temps de parole. Je pense d'ailleurs que les membres de l'équipe vont être critiqués pour leur ressemblance avec des personnages Marvel.
Cyclone ressemble à Tornade, Atom Smacher fait penser à Ant-Man, Doctor Fate ressemble énormément au Docteur Strange (pour ses pouvoirs et un peu sa personnalité), et Hawkman, ici un homme noir, m'a énormément fait penser à Sam Wilson / Le Faucon / Captain America. Pourtant, ils ont une vraie identité propre.
Tumblr media
Les costumes, les décors et la musique sont vraiment bien. Les scènes d'actions sont bien mises en scènes, il y a beaucoup de références à l'univers DC, et je pense que ce film aura un succès équivalent à Aquaman. Il y a un mélange entre film d'aventure et des réflexions politiques et psychologiques qui rendent ce film plus intelligent qu'il ne semble l'être au premier abord.
Évidemment, il va être très difficile de ne pas se faire spolier la scène post-générique. Je ne dirais pas de quoi il s'agit même si de nombreux indices pouvaient nous faire comprendre de quoi cela allait parler. J'ai pourtant été agréablement surpris, et je n'étais pas le seul puisque moi et d'autres spectateurs avons applaudis.
Tumblr media
Ce film ne va sûrement rien révolutionner dans le genre des films de super-héros, mais il est très divertissant et aussi émouvant, et cela suffit à le rendre génial.
Je lui attribue la note de 16 / 20, et je vous encourage à me dire si vous l'avez vu : si c'est le cas, dites-moi en commentaires ce que vous en avez pensé. À bientôt les amis 😀
