There exists, for me, a trinity of ancestor pianists who similarly touch my soul, and they are: Johnny Costa, Bill Evans, and Vince Guaraldi.

I'm telling you, this D'Angelo and The Vanguard performance at the North Sea Jazz Festival (2012) is one of the greatest live performances ever captured.

that’s disappointing to hear. one of the reasons i am still alive is because of the work of a trans marxist.

anti-communism is deeply reactionary & pipelines people directly into fascism.

I was leftist before I was trans. The only reason I even figured out I was trans is because I read “Trans Liberation: Beyond Pink or Blue” written by Leslie Feinberg, who was an outspoken communist.

My original motivation for picking it up was to learn better solidarity with my queer friends.

OMG and it says she worked as an ABA therapist, which means with autistic kids. Who were targeted by Nazi doctors for experiments including death by starvation (thank you Steve Silberman for your unflinching research into that history)

A fucking ABA therapist of fucking course.

Just so everyone is clear, the main issue in the Supreme Court voting rights case tomorrow is whether it's racist against white people to enforce the Voting Rights Act.

I'm dead serious. We live in incredibly stupid times.

it's approximately 2 minutes long and...I don't typically watch videos. I'm not a youtube or tickytocky reels surfing person, it is honestly sort of difficult to get me to watch an internet video.

I watched this one twice and bookmarked.

I need to alt-text the image on the right a bit more for folks using screen readers.

Trump, from Time Magazine, and in an extremely low-angle close-up shot, *is* turned upside down here to highlight the fact that his neck vaginas has a dimple, chasm, crevasse, even, visually emulating a tie dimple.

derek guy @dieworkwear.bsky.social · 11h

when you tie a tie, try to put in a dimple, like so

a black and white photo of a man in a pinstripe worsted suit, white shirt, and textured necktie. the tie has a nice dimple under the knot.

a photo of donald trump upside down. there is also a nice dimple on his red tie

What D’Angelo said Black Messiah means. It came out at the end of 2014 and it was so needed.

Article (Nolan Feeney; TIME) excerpt reads: “Black Messiah is a hell of a name for an album. It can be misunderstood. Many will think it's about religion. Some will jump to the conclusion that I'm calling myself a Black Messiah. For me, the title is about all of us. It's about the world. It's about an idea we can all aspire to. We should all aspire to be a Black Messiah.

It's about people rising up in Ferguson and in Egypt and in Occupy Wall Street and in every place where a community has had enough and decides to make change happen, D'Angelo writes in a statement about the album It's not about praising one charismatic leader but celebrating thousands of them. Not every song on this album is politically charged (though many are), but calling this album Black Messiah creates a landscape there these songs can live to the fullest. Black Messiah is not one man. It's a feeling that, collectively, we are all that leader.”

“D’Angelo’s First Album in 14 Years Is Finally Here, and It’s Surprisingly Timely” via TIME.

"Transsexuality is bourgeois" reflects the common belief that medicine, technology, and any improvements to quality of life are owed to capitalism. The reality is that capitalism holds these improvements hostage for the sake of wealth.

All I'm saying.

I'm not even mad, per se, that Mamdani is pro-capitalist... but don't treat me like an asshole or gaslight me on that fact.

The thing is, leftist starts at anti-capitalist. Democrats aren't anti-capitalist. DemSocs aren't either.

Corey Atad @coreyatad.com · 14h

seeing some leftists getting all “maybe he’s not a true leftist” about Mamdani, and i swear to god, some of you do not live in the real world
