70% of success is staying away from the wrong people

The greatest gift God gave man is not the gift of sight but the gift of Vision. - Myles Munroe

Good morning! #tuesday #tuesdaythoughts #fyp

@monica_access Sang Andrea Martin! RIP to this super talented angel. 🙏🏼 😇

Shanice is a problem🙌🏿

@headnavy Success in Entertainment takes a team. They ALL played a part in her rise. Label could have shelved her as they often do, but they didn't. Their ability to find a path forward & work through all the different opinions was the secret sauce. 💯

When Rihanna first signed with Def Jam, they wanted her to have a specific image and follow their direction, but she didn’t comply, which is why we know the Rihanna we know today.

@TheFilesWithDUB Marc is caught between being Joe's entourage member & a token/pawn in the political/ intellectual world he came from. He has greater value/self worth, but struggles to find the platform that values it. The rage & resentment is evident 💯

🚨WOW‼️😱 Marc Lamont Hill doesn’t CLAP at ALL when Da Baby Leaves the Pod‼️ Damn, Why was the Energy sooo OFF w/ Marc & Da Baby? 🗂️

@FeelTheBass86 Jay-Z & Diddy got rich off being middle men between corporate America & POC. They manufactured their own hype to convince elites that they could make POC do whatever they wanted for a fee & rented out their influence over Black & Brown folk. POC starting to wake up. 🙌🏽🙏🏼

OFFICIAL REPORT - The Carter/Knowles family are going broke ✅ Tina Knowles out here selling contaminated Gumbo from booth… Why is Mama Tina hustling food stands when her daughter and son-in-law are supposed to be billionaires ✅ Julez Smith has to doing club promo gigs. Family got all the connections and he's out here pushing club nights ✅ Matthew Knowles popping up on random podcasts every week with no-name outlets ✅ Jay-Z announcing concerts left and right, already slashing tickets 25% off barely a week after dropping the dates. Admitted to a $190M hit from those sexual assault allegations dragging his name. Plus his name keeps popping up in the latest Epstein file drops, Rep. Nancy Mace calling for him to testify before the House Oversight Committee. Brands pulling back, follower losses, business drying up he's scrambling ✅ Beyoncé and Jay-Z just took out a SECOND $57.8M mortgage on that $88M Bel-Air mansion, total debt pushing over $110M. Rumors they're selling off the UK property they were building too, and merch going at discount prices. Billionaires don't need second mortgages unless cash is tight or they're hiding something big Now ask yourself what actual billionaire family has ever been caught doing side hustles like contaminated gumbo stands, club hosting, random podcasts… This isn’t normal rich people behavior. This is broke behavior dressed in designer. Wake up, y'all missing the bigger picture

@Iantuition @Persway82 Maybe...but Chaka was DEFINITELY on 4 out of 4 & has no room to sling a drug addict dig

@Ghettopen @Persway82 Mary was on two out of the four lol she literally accepted her first Grammy drunk and high.

Chaka Khan admits that she told Mary J. Blige,to her face, that she “fucked up” her song 🎵 “Sweet Thing” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Now I have to go listen to see who sang it better!😩🥳🤣🤣🤦🏾‍♀️ #rabbitholes

@KPRC2Bryce @KPRC2 Same folk saying "you can't eat outta just anybody's kitchen" paid $25-27 for a cup of food poisoning from a celebs mom. Yall were warned that Celebrity worship was a sickness. 😷 🤧🤮🤢🥵

JUST IN: Health inspectors found thawed seafood & food being stored in non-food grade orange buckets, according to records obtained by @kprc2, when a woman reported getting sick after eating Mama Tina's Gumbo. The customer said she had chills and was throwing up blood before health inspectors found multiple violations, which led to the temporary closure of the Houston Rodeo gumbo shop.

@Justin_Teguia @pr3ttyboynekko The Billboard award for "New R&B artist" was discontinued after they won in 1993. Billboard literally canceled the category like it never existed & had no relevance/value. Probably why Coko said that since Billboard treated the category like it was nothing.

@pr3ttyboynekko I checked and they won a Billboard Award in 1993

SWV had never received an award until 2017.

@hassankhaliid @TukiFromKL 🎯🎯🎯 This is the logical assessment. He created a platform for high demand paid content. There's a community of "have-nots" online; obsessed with vilifying anyone who achieves success without their collective sanction. It's a deranged entitlement

Before turning this into a morality play, let’s get one thing straight, platforms like OnlyFans didn’t create demand, they monetized it. The system exists because millions willingly participate on both sides. Calling one person ‘the villain’ oversimplifies a much bigger ecosystem. Yes, taking a cut as a middleman is the business model of literally every platform, App Store, YouTube, Uber. OnlyFans just applied it to a space most people are uncomfortable admitting is massively profitable. That’s not unique, it’s just more visible. And the bigger reality check? Money, scale, dominance, none of it guarantees control over life itself. That’s the only part of this story that actually matters. Everyone’s busy debating how he made billions, but the real question is still the same, if the finish line looks like this for everyone, what exactly are people measuring success by?

🚨 Do you understand what just happened.. the owner of OnlyFans just died at 43.. Leonid Radvinsky.. the man made $3 billion off a platform where other people sell themselves.. he took 20% of every transaction.. every video.. every message.. every tip.. while creators fought algorithms and chargebacks and deplatforming threats just to make rent.. he sat at the top collecting a cut of their bodies.. and everyone called him a "tech founder".. the man wasn't a tech founder.. he was the most successful middleman in history.. and the wildest part.. OnlyFans was profitable from day one.. no VC money.. no IPO.. because when your business model is taking a fifth of what someone earns from their own skin.. you don't need investors.. you need creators desperate enough to not ask questions.. he had $3 billion and still couldn't beat cancer at 43.. what exactly are we all racing toward.

@BiancoDavinci Looks like AI...but a very cool idea

Someone turned this old tuba into a fully functioning bathroom sink

@ayekeeno School lunch Mashed Potatoes to be specific. Her confidence made me smell it as I saw his pic...and the pinecones on Bobbi too. 🎯

Sukihana randomly started violating John Legend on a podcast with Bobbi Althoff, saying every time she’s met him he smelled like mashed potatoes 💀😭

@KensBestLyfe Obama uses this clip to humble Michelle whenever they argue 😎😭😭

THIS😭

@everyoutfitpod Liza also covered Mary J Blige's "Family Affair." They wiped the performance from youtube as it was for a paid PBS special, but here is the audio... youtu.be/IEViQpsrbxo?si…

I still can’t believe this is real.

@hey_mindi FUN FACT: The Grammys, Oscar's, Emmys & Tony's are also registered as non-profit organizations although the represent billions, spend & generate millions yearly... 🤨🤫😔

Did you know Goodwill made $2.1 BILLION in revenue last year? They pay executives 6-figure salaries. They pay workers sometimes less than minimum wage via a legal loophole. They get their inventory donated for free then sell it back to the public. The thrift store for “poor people” is one of the most profitable nonprofits in the country.

The invisible Glass experiment Scientists once placed a transparent glass barrier inside an aquarium. On one side was a fierce pike, and on the other side were several smaller fish swimming freely. When the hungry pike saw the smaller fish, it immediately rushed forward to attack. Bang. It slammed straight into the glass and bounced back. Confused, the pike kept trying again and again, but every attempt ended the same way. The repeated collisions injured its head and knocked off some of its scales. Eventually, the pike became frightened and retreated to a corner of the tank. After some time, the scientists quietly removed the glass barrier. The smaller fish now swam freely throughout the aquarium, even brushing against the pike’s mouth. But the pike never tried to eat them again. Even though it was hungry, it refused to attack. In its mind, the invisible wall was still there. A few days later, the pike reportedly died of starvation, surrounded by food. This phenomenon is often referred to as the Pike Effect or Pike Syndrome. It’s often used as a metaphor for how repeated failure can create invisible limits in the mind.

Creative wrapping of a wine gift🍾

@Primewave96 Female cop "fear for my safety" was laying foundation to draw on him. Power tripping 101.

🚨 Some people panic the moment they see flashing lights. They start explaining themselves, apologizing, and giving away info they never had to share in the first place. But as soon as questions come back at them, everything changes. Knowing your rights and staying calm in these situations is something most people were never taught—and that lack of knowledge is exactly what the system counts on. 💡 Learning how these encounters really work and how to protect yourself legally is key to staying safe. ⚖️👮‍♂️
