I regret to inform you as someone in college in the early 90s that the right-wingers were already in the elite colleges and already working on their trolling game. (I'm not saying, "Why are you surprised?" but instead "Positioning vile texts as new neglects the long history of vile GOP actors.")

An hour and 11-minute long mix of nothing but D'Angelo live tracks from various shows during the Brown Sugar and Voodoo eras. It's so well done. Also downloadable.

D'Angelo speaking out about the physical and emotional burden of maintaining a nearly unobtainable physique and sexy image as a Black male artist should be taught in labor studies. It absolutely impacted how I analyze pop culture.

Thinking for no particular reason about the location for the film. 👀

this movie seems like further evidence that the minds of the nation’s political, cultural and economic elite were destroyed by being criticized on twitter

The lies start right at the top! "To make sure we were being careful with mental health issues."

Bruh.

A remake of Back to the Future, but every scene has Marty played by a different actor because every time he does literally anything he steps on a few butterflies and who he is in the future changes.

My senator doesn't really carry a permit to call this "tea", but it is one perspective. Needs to be punchier and needs better rhetorical strategies. Start by saying "The Republicans could reopen the government but they only do what Trump allows them to do and he makes money by keeping it closed."

You get a lot of propaganda and spin thrown at you, so I want to give you the real, behind-the-scenes tea.

I was not aware of the deep experimental technical DEPTH D'Angelo was doing... I only saw this a few months back and was like "Shit I need to go back and re-listen".

This Indigenous Peoples Day please speak up: another typhoon sweeping away homes of Alaska's Natives, who, during settlement (statehood: 1948) were forced to end ways of life (like my Grandma's) involving mobility across regions & stuck them in flood-prone/unstable villages with housing deficits.
