Your will to live is a burdock leaf.

You will burrow into the world and crack open a sidewalk.

Your politics will come alive not at the next goalpost but when you meet someone who wants to learn what you have experienced.

This Venus in Libra, I want you to remember that you become brave when you liberate your strength from the bed of old habits that have locked it into place.

I am being asked to tell my department which pieces of lab equipment should be supported with backup power because they expect rolling blackouts and brownouts in 2026 due to increased energy demands from AI. In case you're wondering how my day is going.

Last reskeet, having watched the clips where talked about how the response to that video caused him body image issues and made him uncomfortable it's weird to see people celebrating that imagery specifically.

Yeah please leave his abs out of it, if y'all really cared about the man.

Don't Play In My Face @burkehousecrafts.com · 1d

I'm purposely not mentioning his abs because I remember him talking about how uncomfortable it made him and put him in a difficult headspace about his own body.

Check the age difference between them and remember how young he was when he started. And notice how many interviews she gave talking about him after their split vs how silent he was about her.

D'Angelo is the reason why I know half of the internet people I do. Folks flooded to the #okayplayer boards after THAT video and rest was history.
May he rest.

RIP D'Angelo

I think about this 2012 GQ profile of him a lot

The Return of D'Angelo - GQ June 2012 Profile

He was once hailed as the next Marvin Gaye. Then, after his ripped body threatened to overshadow his music, he vanished into addiction. So what the hell was he doing recently singing his heart out in ...

He deserved to grow old. He deserved the space to be more creative and share more art w/ the world. He deserved to be adorned in praise while he was still able to receive it in the physical. Luckily, music and spirit is eternal.

RIP Michael Eugene Archer aka D'ANGELO. 🕊️
