And go outside. Say good morning to the bees. Morning sun is the best sun. UV index is low and it’ll still boost your mood.
And maybe, ladies, let’s not check our messages as soon as we open our eyes? Meditate, have a nice shower. Take some time to yourself before you let the world in.

Precisely. Just because I may be pulling teats at 0500 does not mean I want an unknown on my tit before 1000. Only familiars are welcome to text before that time. My phone stay on Focus/DND silent so it’s not like it is going to typically disrupt me, it’s the principle of the thing. Maybe I’m just old and boundaries like that no longer matter.
Also, some of us work alternate shifts, are night owls, or just ain’t morning people. Although IME messaging at that hour confirms the man’s incompatibility for most in those categories.

Egypt was never a predominantly black civilization, and the amount of black African DNA found in Egyptians has increased over time, not decreased as many assume.
https://www.cnn.com/2017/06/22/health/ancient-egypt-mummy-dna-genome-heritage
Modern Egyptians were found to “inherit 8% more ancestry from African ancestors” than the mummies studied. The paper cites increased mobility along the Nile, increased long-distance commerce and the era of the trans-Saharan slave trade as potential reasons why.
Black Africans once ruled Egypt for a century, they were overlords over a predominantly brown society just like later White European rulers such as Cleopatra were. The actual population of Egypt was brown despite being ruled by Black and White foreigners throughout history.
Egyptians were Arabized in terms of culture and religion, but few Arabian conquerors physically migrated to Egypt, not significantly affecting Egyptian genetics. Just like few Greeks and Romans migrated to Egypt during Greek or Roman rule. The idea that Egypt was converted from a predominantly black society to a predominantly brown society due to the Arab invasion is a myth that has been disproven by genetic research and never made sense in the first place.
The reality is that brown Egyptians are indigenous to Egypt. They migrated from the Middle East to Egypt around 6,000 BC, then created Egyptian civilization 3,000 years thereafter. There is virtually no evidence of human habitation between 9,000 BC and 6,000 BC, they entered an uninhabited land and became the indigenous population.

u/myheartismykey ☑️ Mar 07 '23
My point was more on the fact that Egypt was ruled at one time by black Africans. I appreciate the info but it is all stuff I already know, just didn't want to get into the details of all of it. It's still good that you put it out there for people who may not know.

Yes! A fortnight to message? That would’ve been a ‘never read’ on my my end. A ‘deny’ label and to the text oubliette for what could have been — a rare single pass for emergency but I’m on alert.
My object permanence was like 5 days when I was single, if I hit the next weekend and we didn’t connect then you weren’t hungry enough for me. To be clear when I got the digits I followed up the next afternoon to line up a date for the following Friday at the latest, if I got the vibe they’d be receptive I’d deliver flowers or send a small gift midweek. I’m not shy and I was fine failing, I just needed to be careful to not accidentally lovebomb people with my enthusiasm.

u/wordsoundpower Mar 06 '23
An explanation:
‘According to Tharps, “the modern understanding of dreadlocks is that the British, who were fighting Kenyan warriors (during colonialism in the late 19th century), came across the warriors’ locs and found them ‘dreadful,’ thus coining the term ‘dreadlocks.’” Personally, I refer to my hairstyle as locs, having dropped “dread” altogether given its negative connotation. Although many may not know of the term’s dark history, the hairstyle remains widely contentious in America two centuries later.’

u/Justalilhornytbh Mar 06 '23

Aye i dont want to be bothered that early in the morning.
BUT.
Early risers tend to be hard working people with productive routines. People who work out before work, or read, or whatever. People who say “Grand rising”, if they’re not blindly on the bandwagon, tend to be people who put time and research into emotional/spiritual health. Which tends to accompany eating healthy and exercising (feed the soul). So…this would be a green flag to me.
Or maybe he’s an insomniac who recognized op is of higher caliber, so hes trying to sound woke. Life is one long test yall. Annoying.
