Love you more than stars in the sky

I love you more than stars in the sky. — A common way old Southen Black people end telephone calls. If you had a mother or a grandmother who kept a rotary phone well into the touch tone phone age; and who finally got a touchstone phone when people were shedding landlines; and she was from the South; then, you have heard this phone ending long distance kiss.
.
Even if she was mad at you.

Or you were mad at her.

Racial politics in America being what that have been since reconstruction, life could be uncertain. So old Black people always say I love you a lot at the end of phone conversations — especially long distance phone calls — because they don’t want the last thing that they say to people to be words of anger — especially because at any moment in America, a Black life may not matter.

The saying they used a lot was: Don’t let the sun set on your wrath.

And I’m thinking of you here George Floyd!

Now in the age of emojis the children and grandchildren of these people text ❤️❤️❤️🌟⭐️✨🔥🔥🔥 to each other meaning: Love you more than stars in the sky; and love like fire can always grow the more you feed it.

Happy New Year 2024 and ❤️❤️❤️🌟⭐️✨🔥🔥🔥.
1st friend: Whenever I spoke to Ma or my Grandlady long distance by phone, they both always ended the call by saying: I love you more than stars in the sky.
2nd friend: MINE TOO!!!! Are your people from the South?
1st friend: Yep!!!! Alabama and the Carolinas. Now we text ❤️❤️❤️🌟⭐️✨🔥🔥🔥 to each other meaning almost the same thing but we added our flava to it with the fire. The fire mean: Love like fire grows the more you feed it.
2nd friend: Oh word? That joint is tight!!!!!!!

Star :)

star is normally very tall, or short. she gets all the boys most of the time and she shines bright like a “star.” you most likely won’t meet a star in your life but if you do your lucky. She will be your best friend, but probably leave you and then steal your man. They are normally blonde
Boy: dang Star :) is tall

Star Emoji

Used by chronic pain patients to indicate they've been blocked by Andrew Kolodny, the executive director of Physicians for Responsible Opioid Prescribing (PROP.)

Kolodny has an overwhelming habit to misrepresent opioids (saying, for example, that prescription opioids are the problem when in fact it's illicit fentanyl, and ignoring that opioid prescribing has dramatically decreased while ODs continued to increase) as well as chronic pain patients - who he has called 'PR pawns for big pharma,' junkies, etc.

When a chronic pain patient confronts him with factual, sourced corrections to his misinformation, and questions regarding the propaganda - no matter how civil - he will block them and hide the tweet rather than let their voices be represented in a conversation that directly impacts their lives, and ignoring that PROP-pushed propaganda and misuse of CDC guidelines that have led to patients being forcibly tapered and taken off of their medication, including veterans and cancer patients, has led to many suicides amongst those with chronic pain.
CPP1: I got my star emoji today. Kolodny blocked me when I pointed out the CDC spoke out against forced tapering and cutting patients off of pain meds, and said the guidelines were being misused.

CPP2: Yeah, I got mine months ago when I linked research showing that Rx opioids weren't at fault. Welcome to the club.
