Notes from TNFro Is Reading Podcast….

Persist and Consequence Shall Induce Itself Has A Fro…Calm, rooted and undisturbed; Golden Age of Grift Part 3-Hollywood Ponzi Scheme; Reunion Lerwks and Owning Your Light. – feliciabaxter

Starting with childhood hymns and a cleansing of the evil eye, this episode dives into the messy, "ghetto," but beautiful process of putting yourself back together piece by piece. Join me as I talk through leaning into gratitude, ignoring the haters (thanks for the algorithm boost!), holding people accountable to high standards, and guarding your peace at all costs. I’m sharing candid thoughts on self-regulation, building true independence, and tackling that sneaky imposter syndrome and fear of success that creeps in just as things start working out. Rooted, unbothered, and stepping into a new era of intentional calm—let's walk this path together. Sunday mornings on the ridge bring a profound stillness, a welcome respite after the week’s hustle. This weekend, the focus shifted from podcast production to personal restoration, involving movement, meditation, and nourishing rituals. Grounding in the present moment, I honor my lineage and find gratitude in the simple joys of life, carrying this sense of peace and purpose into the week ahead. #CountYourBlessings #Unbothered #SettingBoundaries#ImposterSyndrome#HealingJourney#ProtectYourPeace Jason Cloth, a Hollywood executive producer, ran a $100 million Ponzi scheme, exploiting his industry connections and reputation to deceive investors. Wealthy investors were misled by his credentials and proximity to fame, failing to scrutinize his financial practices. To protect against such scams, it’s crucial to maintain a vigilant, analytical mindset, separating creative credibility from financial transparency and demanding clear, verifiable information. I continue to discuss "circling the block" and finding yourself and peace while navigating your next Chapter in Terry McMillan's I Almost Forgot About You, a FBRoasters Subscription Book Selection.  The Bell Collective reunion looks were praised for their styling, with standout outfits from Letitia, Dr. Marie Monroe, and Carlos King. The author found the Real Housewives of OC boring and criticized Carrie Paul for being performative about her business struggles. The author also noted the improved dynamics among the Bell Collective cast members.

Mercury is in Retrograde until October 18th.

What does that mean exactly??? Communications are fraught with angst and anxiety. Is that why everyone with an inflated sense of self-worth or importance coming at me with their hands out?

I would love to have a side business, including my blog and website as a safe space for other creatives, and I actually wanted to include family members. But, sometimes you can’t take everyone with you. You don’t have to take everyone with you. Also, you, human crab, don’t need to go where I go.

Thus I started Side Eye-Side Bars to express my derision with people coming at me crazy.

Having other creatives acting like the blue crab. Tearing down or negating another creative’s worth and importance with their own inflated self importance. I am a significant other of no one. I am not an agent nor a life coach. I will no longer support a delusional inflated self important egotist. Riddle me this, is it easier to support the work of a creative with no sense of self worth or a wanna be creative with an inflated sense of self? I know my request for freelance blog post went left quickly. Although I will not accept the submission my response did provide the content for my TNFro Is Reading Podcast. Let me know what you think in the comments section or send them to tnfroisreading@gmail.com. If non-trolley I may add to the daily posts or read on the podcast.

What I’m Reading Watching and Writing…

Still Reading and Writing about the Perils of Privilege and more about Black Privilege.

Dave Chappelle is more genius than Lil’ Naz X. I would gather Dave Chappelle is the original troll. You expect him to say some wild -ish forcing people to stream his shows and comedy specials. Y’all do realize Sticks and Stones, Equanimity and now the latest and if you believe him the last in his Old Dude Comedy Trilogy, The Closer, he has used some of the same jokes, different context, at different points in the shows although taped in a 4 year span in front of different audiences in different cities for 60 Mill Large right? Yes, he says some really problematic -ish in his special, but does he need to be cancelled? No. Because he used some of the same material in his other specials, and in this version seemed a bit more tame. Further, demanding Netflix to remove the episode, is not violation of free speech, if you paid attention in Civics 101. Nor is it a remote possibility that this will happen, given its ranking from a streaming standpoint. This special does not excuse homophobia, Asian Violence, or the serial killer(s) hunting trans-women. If you want to use a comedy special as an excuse to do your dirt and kill and maime people, girl bye, Dave Chapelle offense is not a defense for your shenanigans. Stop it! I don’t buy it.
