Now let's see. Do you remember me? M-o-w-m-a-q-d-w-e-d-w-e. That's my name, Mama Q.

Speaker 2: 1:53

Hey, hi, it's me Mama Q. I welcome you to Moments in Q ASMR episode. In this episode I will titillate your ear with my voice and random sounds in Q today. 60 seconds of heaven. What's going on? Let's get it popping and croak on the joke. Rcr, arrrgh, stop it, stop it, stop it. Rcr, arghhhhhhh. What's going on in this segment? I'll tell you what's going on in my life since last episode. Well, first off, let's start a little political. Okay, yesterday was the last day for early voting in Memphis, kentucky.

Speaker 2: 3:36

It was difficult for me to find a quote-unquote ideal candidate for Memphis mayor. We had like 17 candidates, okay, obviously, I know some of them don't really care about Memphis. They just make brums to get our vote. So I guess it could be a power trip. But and either through no vote of their own or intentionally being about self, they failed to do things that's right for the citizens. I tried to echo myself what type of Memphis I want to see. It's difficult for me to imagine because of, obviously, I am a very out-there type of thinker you know what I'm saying and to think of the ideal type of Memphis. I don't know if Memphis itself is really and truly ready for the type of Memphis that I would like to see would obviously include the type of Memphis where we give fucking reparations. Okay, like money in hand, let us get money for our houses that some of the black veterans did not get an opportunity to receive. Like, let's literally give us the money, the funds and the way to level the even I mean to even the level of the playing field, like for real. For real, let's be okay with medical marijuana being legal in Memphis, kentucky. Alright, I mean, I get it some years ago. Whatever people work in slaughteries, the casinos, memphis Grizzlies, all these things. But let's be honest, debauchery and sinful shit quote-unquote is profitable. Alright, let's see.

Speaker 2: 5:27

I would also like for there to be a Memphis where we can actually make money to thrive and not just survive. You know what I'm saying? Like it appears that the quote-unquote hood in Memphis. What they do is they make it horrible and not easy for people that live there to live there, and then they'll come in there when the property value appears to be low and buy up everything. Now some people will be like that's a very smart business move. I don't know, I don't like the way that that sounds, where you're turning neighborhoods. That was majority black, and then you come over and bring your whiteness to it and you try to push the other people out as opposed to try to make that specific neighborhood better. And now people who've been there forever are pushed out and you're trying to gentrify. I personally don't like that.

Speaker 2: 6:26

I also wish that the type of Memphis I would like to see could be one that's up to date. Like I kid it, not everybody is into spirituality, but it's great, as I've said before, to have Nashville three hours east and have Atlanta. That should be southeast as well, like what? Six or seven hours driving southeast from us, and they seem to be, quote-unquote, a little bit more progressive than the rest of us.

Speaker 2: 6:56

Like I remember some years ago our mayor was against Memphis. What was it? Police officers or police women, or Memphis, whatever it was. It was one season of women that were police officers and Memphis. That shit was hilarious. I love it, and I remember the mayor at the time in a pair of rays and said something like he didn't want it to be another season because he felt like he put Memphis in a bad light and I'm like it's the city, like what the fuck, I don't know. It's just like I wish there could be a little bit more forward thinking and outwardly thinking. So We'll see.

Speaker 2: 7:39

And one of the candidates, oh my gosh was I didn't like this particular candidate at all because and I know how it's about sound, but I'm gonna try to not clean it up a lot, but I'm gonna try to make it make sense to you or to me, whatever, whatever. So they were trying to go down, down to do something. I forgot what it was, and then God sent them to be the mayor. So they filled out signatures to be the mayor and I went on their profile and they had nothing. Like I went on their social media nothing, no website, nothing.

Speaker 2: 8:16

So I'm like whew, what? So God told you to do this and you didn't have a plan. Now, granted, it's gonna sound like I'm being contradictory or what, not because of the situation where I felt it in my spirit that the ancestors in my higher self was telling me to do something. But I actually had a plan. I failed and I misunderstood, which I need to get over and I'm working on a date by that, but like there was a plan. So you mean to tell me there was no plan? So God told you to try to be a candidate for mayor and that's it. That's it. You're not gonna even tell people to vote for you, you're not gonna even try to tell people your thoughts and what it is that you want, and the person is a realtor Like what the fuck? But whatever we'll see, I won't be surprised if the person who I voted for doesn't make it, because one thing that I see when it comes to voting whether it's the local election or the states well, I'm sorry, yeah, the entire United States election is that people will vote for their own individual thoughts and beliefs, everything like that, and they'll go for a hoax, popular versus somebody who they think will be great for the benefit of all. Which, whatever. Also, like I said, I'm not a political person, so I'm just gonna leave that there. Also, decent news you might not give a fuck, but, oh my gosh, I do. So.

Speaker 2: 9:56

I felt in my spirit to look up some more about some of my ancestors and, oh, my goodness, the math, oh the math. That was funny to me because what I had to do was I wrote down the 11 chillings. I wrote down when they died the year, and it was missing from the obituary because there was one particular uncle named Will Jones or William, I'm not for sure. And so this particular uncle didn't have a birth date, a death date, nothing. I just know that he's from Duncan Mississippi at the time, like what. So I had to try to do some math to figure out approximately when did he live, or at least when did he die? And did the last brother, well, the last child of that generation. I looked him up and the last thing I heard he was from Pittsburgh, pennsylvania, and stuff. So I was able to find out approximately when he died and that made me feel great like, oh my gosh, shout out to my ancestors that did the senses and did obituaries and just said who was left in the family, because that has helped me out so, so much. So my grandmother I cannot, yeah, okay. So my grandmother, I'm a descendant of her. So her brother I talked about him before Solomon Sir Jones, okay.

Speaker 2: 11:32

So I was trying to figure out who was their parents and the death certificate of that particular grandma oh my gosh, that has thrown me off because with her senses she said she was from South Carolina and then one time she said she was from Tennessee, and I'm like what. And then when she died, her parents when her chillens said that she was from Georgia, and then another person who was her mom and I'm not for sure I'll get to that one in a minute said Mississippi. And I'm like what the fuck? Oh my gosh, so that threw me off. And then, back in the days, when it came to death certificates, it would say for you to put the maiden name of the person. So they wrote in cursive and y'all I do know how to read in cursive, so that has helped me out a lot. However, I could not tell if that, if this particular grandma that I'm talking about, if her maiden name was Jones, or if her child but Dorcas, as the name, like it, threw me off. And then for the father, I could not read what is said at all. And I do know that some of those chillens were unable to read or write, but oh my gosh, it has been bothering me.

Speaker 2: 12:58

So here we go, going back to Solomon Sir Jones. Alright, so I went through as much information about him and I reread it and y'all, it was right there the entire time. His mom had died around 1916 and he was buried next to her and his two chillens, and that matters to the story, cause, check this shit out y'all. Oh my gosh. So I googled the cemetery that is that he had died from right. I mean, is the word buried or interred? Buried, I think, is the word, although I sometimes people call it interred, I don't know. Anyway, alright, and so I googled it some way.

Speaker 2: 13:47

Somehow I found this guy on flipping Facebook who has an entire Facebook what is it? A Facebook page dedicated to people in Oklahoma that had died, because he found that the death records of people, let me see, like early 1900s, so late 1800s, to like early 1900s, like 1916 or something like that. Oh my gosh. So he has a Facebook group dedicated to that. And do you know? He found those death records at a fucking thrift store. What the fuck.

Speaker 2: 14:24

Okay, so I found him and showed him he had videos of the plots of their, of their tombstone and stuff, and unfortunately it's very overgrown over there, which is no different than some of the black cemetery plots that exist in Memphis, kentucky, because I have some ancestors that were buried. I forgot the name of the area. I drove by it. It is so like it was not being taken care of, so even if I wanted to go over there and try to find my ancestors, I wouldn't be able to shout out to my grandma for telling me about it, and so it's so flipping.

Speaker 2: 15:07

Aggravating to me is that, like it appears that for the cemeteries where the black folks were buried, where the ones where they seem to be forgotten, and I don't like that. So I don't know if the love of my motherfucking life is gonna listen to me, but, look, I prefer to not even be buried, like at this point. If, like, I have my descendants and they're looking for me, like how they're gonna find me. So fuck that. Like so far, I'm really and truly thinking about, like just creamy me, okay. So anyway, like it was just again I know I'm rambling, but this is some good shit, oh my God. So, anyway, he sent me the death certificate of my uncle, solomon Sir Jones, and he sent me a death certificate of his mother darkest, darkest, darkest. I'm not for sure how to pronounce it or the spelling, and it's gonna throw me off a little bit, so I don't know.

Speaker 2: 16:14

But I'm super, super happy and excited and I cannot wait till I go to my ancestor altar and tell them, because here's how I'm gonna put a bow on this whole entire conversation. I asked them earlier last week, like help me find y'all and the ancestors always find a way, y'all. And what like? A few days later, the thoughts and down-loads started coming to my head on how to find someone, so, so and so, and wow, you just cannot make this shit up. So I cannot wait to give them the update. I'm super excited. And on top of that, it's October 1st, it's Hootoo Heritage Month, which I'll talk more about on Thursday. So, yeah, that's what's been going on in my life and I'm like super excited, happy about the progress that I made.

Speaker 2: 17:07

Oh, and on the other side and then I'll wrap it up On the other side I'm pretty like saddened by it, because it's like there's no pictures, there's like nothing about my ancestors and I don't like how quote-a-quote arrogant and I know how this says in negative connotation but I don't like how quote-a-quote arrogant I am and thinking that I'll find some information on them that nobody else has been able to find, but it's just like, oh, there's a dead end as far as Uncle Solomon, sir Jones, his father, and probably a dead end from his mom. But let's see. So, with that being said, I am super, super proud because that means as well, we're not gonna include his parents yet, because I haven't been able to like affirm, but like, if the math is mathin'. If I'm not mistaken, that means that I have found six generations above me. So that makes me happy, but, like I said, at the same time I'm pretty sad because the information that's given it's like, not consistent.

Speaker 2: 18:24

One of my grandmothers, her maiden name is Brown, but I can't find nothing to align with Brown like and by and true. Yes, she was born during slavery, but I don't know. And then she married somebody which I can confirm his name was Wash Jones. So, okay, I get that she changed her name, but somewhere else I see on the deaf today for this it's Strickland and I'm like what the fuck? So it's like what? So that's the part that makes me happy and sad all together at the same time and it just reminds me how upsetting and fucked up it is that people, whether they care or not, or choose to not see it because it doesn't affect them, that unfortunately, the enslavement of our African ancestors is really fucked up. A lot of people.

Speaker 2: 19:20

Because I cannot find my peoples of the United States like I can't. I can't find too much for anything about them. They were just a first name if anything, or they were just a nigga-like. It's just so heartbreaking. And then I can hear from some white people that can like say where they came from, outside the United States, and again and I'm Wow, I'm still going, I'm almost done. I know I said that a little while ago and it's like so heartbreaking to me. And it's not to say that I'm not happy and proud of my ancestors that I have been able to find, but it's just like, oh, like there's so much more to them than just being enslaved Africans. Like they came from a country Somewhere, like somewhere in West Africa they did, and it's like I'll never be able to know. Yeah, my DNA can say it, but I'll never be able to have the names or anything like that. So it's like the more I find out, the more frustrated, upset and pissed off I am. And it just gets me even more mad because, like I said, nobody Very few in front between gives a shit, but it's like nobody gives a shit about the aftermath. Like, but we're supposed to care about 9-11, the Holocaust, all this stuff, but we can't care about the after effects of African enslavement. Make that make sense. Let's get it popping.

Speaker 2: 21:00

I blow out the bubbles surrounding pop culture and talk about it Boy math, girl math and body count has been said, yet they're all up and down on my tiktok. So I love the Joe budding podcast and my boo thing love of my motherfucking life. He always calls him a regular Joe, but now green it. I am starting to get a little bit annoyed with the Joe budding podcast. However, they did recently talk about Brittany Rinner, if I'm not mistaken her on the Shannon sharp show talking about body count. Now, allegedly she was the one who offered the information about being with 35 men and Shannon sharp seemed to be surprised. So that's one part. The other part is, according to Twitter, will exit, whatever the fuck is called.

Speaker 2: 22:06

Women started to do this thing called girl math, which they was just talking about silly stuff and I'm not gonna go through all of it. Yeah, I can look at help yourself. And then man being me and per usual, as if a woman cannot have fun without them Decided to chime in and then when we came up with boy math and the shit was hilarious. So I combined all of this to the pop culture thing about who I'm fucking Not me specifically, but like there's all these memes and Kevin Samuels and the people that decide red pill and all the people decide to believe in his ideology that it matters how many times a woman has had sex. Her body count gotta be low, which I think is dumb as fuck.

Speaker 2: 22:58

I can't remember if I ever said this I'm about to say, but until of mine, when I used to be a Christian, she had to and she was a Christian to, so Was so hilarious. She had said that it makes no point for you to be you meaning me to be a virgin For my husband, and my husband isn't one, and they kind of stuck with me. Now this is the same auntie who has said something about me wanting to be a scientist or deal with Astronomy and stuff, because I love looking at the stars, and she was like all scientists don't believe in God. It's amazing how some of the things that Adults say the good, the bad and everything in between can really really stick with you years later. I can tell you some of the things that was said some years ago, but can't tell you what I did a little while ago. My sugar memory is trash anyway. So that was that and I remember. Let me see.

Speaker 2: 24:00

Okay, so I remember body count being a quote-unquote big deal back in my days, let me see. So my high school sweetheart cheated on me, so I cheated on with cheated on him. So that was dude number two, and so do number three. Hey wanted to know how many people I had been with, so that means it was two before him or whatever it didn't. So we're looking at, like what? Early 2000s up into 2006. So, yeah, for about five to six years I was asked my body count. The last person that asked my body count was the father of my mini me and I told him what it was and my number was more than him and he never let me forget it, that abuse of fucker, and I'mma let. I'm not gonna go into detail about that because that could be a trigger warning. Now, after that, nobody asked me.

Speaker 2: 25:05

Now I did have an ex who we kind of sort of talked about it. He had three digits in his body count, like what the fuck? It was just crazy to me. I'm like a hundred people wanted to fuck you but I fucked him. So we were in a relationship anyway, and so it's just crazy to me that body count is still something that matters, like yeah, and in like for me the reason that I didn't mind answering it back in the days because I didn't care, still don't care now. I think my book, they love my motherfucking life. I think he knows I can't remember like for me it's never been like a make or break question him and I had a conversation about how old we were when we lost our virginity and I think that's about it. But like again, for me I just didn't care. You know it's like no big fucking deal or whatever. And it's still not a big fucking deal now. Like I don't see anything wrong with telling somebody or not telling somebody.

Speaker 2: 26:13

But basin, especially for women, like basin all found me to be, both women slept with. That makes her wifey material or not wifey material. Like I fucking kidding me, I know what it is that at the end of the day, some of these men are trash lovers and they're selfish. They only care about their nuts. So if they get with a woman who doesn't have that much quote-quote, experiencing on no better shingles, no, what it is that she likes to do was she enjoys, she gonna think his fucking seven minutes is off the chain. And it's really not. And to me that's controlling predatory behavior. Anyway, I don't see what's the big deal like at all.

Speaker 2: 26:56

So all like, when my boo thing and I decide to get married, I already said like, clearly I'm not a version, I have a daughter, so there's no need to wear white. And I think it's just crazy that it matters about the purity of a woman but not a man. And let's not forget, not everybody is into heterosexual people. There are some people who have been gay for forever, so it's like it only matter to cisgender people that are heterosexuals, like who cares and everything. And I don't think that it should matter and I think and I know it'll never be eliminated. But I think those questions should be eliminated because one thing I learned from being with the father of my child is that you never ask a question that you don't want to know the answer to. You never ask that. So if you want to know how many people a person's been with and stuff, and you find out whether they tell you or not, tell you or what have you, and if they tell you, okay, cool, but whatever, if you find out the answer or you don't find out the answer, what's the big fucking deal? Okay, are you gonna leave or are you gonna stay? And if you're gonna stay, you should not bring that up into our gaming, cuz. What does that have to do with anything? Cuz at the end of the day, you still fucked me. You can't undo that, whatever. So it's like I don't know. So, anyway, I say all that stuff to say that it shouldn't fucking matter. Okay, as long as we are consenting adults that decide to have sex with each other, that's all. That should matter, okay.

Speaker 2: 28:33

Like you care more about a person's body count then, like asking for their blood work, stds, sti checks. Like are you serious? And like, let's not forget, someone can be a virgin and lose their virginity to whomever and they can get something. So, like, what is your thought process on this? Like it's crazy to me and stuff especially to me. Like I said I'm 40, but to be my 40s and we still give a shit about that. Like what?

Speaker 2: 29:08

And I know I'm almost done with this section, so I know I talked about this couple episodes ago, but that was one of the things that that guy who works with me had said to this other younger woman about body count, it and how, like you lose, like I'm paraphrasing again but like how woman like the more man that she's being with. She loses her purity. Like what the fuck, are you serious? So a woman loses her purity the way on the many times that she have sex but a man does it and then it's like also, some idiots are quite now a woman's vagina looks like if it, oh well, if it looks a certain way, and they're like so dumb because there are some women who lay be a is on the outside and some women lay be a song the inside.

Speaker 2: 30:00

So you know how, like some of these stupid as me and we'll talk about oh, she has been abused. If the meat is on the outside, it looks like a arby's sandwich that they want to talk on. It's like they're one of the labia's I think it's labia majoria is on the outside. So we can not. All of our vaginas are looking the same and oh wow, you know, I don't want to know because it's loose.

Speaker 2: 30:28

Like are you serious? Like just say that you're digging slow, okay, because some of us can give birth and it goes right back to what it was after we give birth. You know it. So it's like if we can push up what six to eight pound baby out of there and it goes back just because you don't feel nothing just means that you're little, that's it. And if you're a little, that sounds like a personal problem. You might just want to make sure that your head came in some asin which of your ashes. So anyway, if you couldn't tell, all this was off the dome because yet again I did not have time to write down all my notes and stuff like that croak on the joke. That's where I give you my bestest jokes and we laugh together, or not? Today's jokes. How are the movies Titanic and the sixth sense alike? I see dead people get it. I see dead people. Well, guess that's my cutie leave.
