Don't engage. Just block. They want to push their rage bait on here. Don't give them the satisfaction.

Right.
Because addiction is definitely about the mind more than the alcohol.

yep. the shame of “failing” eats people up. meanwhile, we need to be investigating why someone turned to addictive behaviors in the first place & rehab. this country has a dark relationship with inflicting pain because we won’t face it

Except that’s not how that works. COVID does long-term damage to your immune system. The kind of damage that the IS can’t recover from on its own.

I’d recommend masking whenever possible.

(I’ll be putting free/affordable resources in the comments)

Also. COVID has been linked to erectile dysfunction. Since I know that’s all some of y’all care about.

One thing I wanna say is that much of what made D'Angelo so great is that he understood he was part of a continuum, a legacy, a lineage of great Black music across the generations. He named, revered, studied the greats who preceded him, then figured out how to take their work several steps further.

His self worth wasn’t tied to income… because he felt great until you made more… his self worth was tied to financial control

Her partner's self-worth was tied directly to his income, and it eroded as her salary grew, Dhatt tells me.

The password is password, but when I put it in it said it was incorrect. Then when I changed it to password it said I couldn't use an existing password.

I settled on a clip from the (incredible) doc Sly Lives! (watch it now on Hulu if you haven't.) I think it's the most transparent commentary I ever heard from D'Angelo; it's about Sly, but it's really about him.

My plan was to grab a whole different clip, but this one felt right.
