Madison County Yellowbone

The Madison County Yellowbones, also called the London Ohio Yellowbones, are a group of multigenerationally mixed race extended families descended from escaped and freed slaves, Free People Of Color, early Black arrivals to Ohio, Amish settlers of Ohio, Appalachian Scots-Irish frontiersmen coming into Ohio when Ohio was part of the northwest territory, and in some families likely distant Native American ancestors from various tribes of the Southeast, Mid-Atlantic, Appalachian, and Midwestern regions of the USA, depending on the family.

If you are a Madison County Yellowbone descendant, your relatives likely had one of a short list of last names by the 1990s, which includes Napper, Whitelow, Whitehead, Whited, Whiteside, McCoy, Miller, and other surnames recorded in these families in 1991. You may have ancestors who fought as Black Union Army soldiers during the American Civil War and likely have relatives who identify as Black but has blue eyes or has red or blonde natural highlights despite having an afro hair type. Many Madison County Yellowbone descendants have been adopting the term Qarsherskiyan as a self identification or endonym, and it was their community that coined the term for them, Darke County Yellowbones, and Tidewater Creole communities back in 1991, beginning to use the term online as the term began catching on by late 2019.

Grindset

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.

“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”

"My boyfriend say LaFlame is cheeks."
"Tell your boyfriend I said it's his mixtape that's cheeks."

Breadhead 

Someone who is addicted to obtaining money and building wealth. A money addict and fanatic. Breadheads often work more than one full-time job, and some even participate in illicit activities to "obtain the bread".

A breadhead is like a crackhead, but for money instead of crack.
