Even some industrial bottom end.

Beautiful lightness of touch too.

3 classic albums. No skips. Love songs. Liberation songs. Sensual songs. Fun songs. Black ass music. 51 is too young. D'Angelo can't be gone.

Heartbreaking: Neo-soul legends Angie Stone and D’Angelo both passed away in 2025, just 7 months apart. Stone died in March at 63. D’Angelo died today at 51. They shared a son together. An entire generation’s soundtrack, gone. Rest in power to both 🕊️💔

Funny thing, ending on a Monday. I’m sure it was a choice.

From someone who has listened to every single episode (few voices I’ve listened to more) bless you and thank you, Marc Maron. #wtf

There’s plenty of poetry in scansion, syncopation and emphasis.

The conversation between Klein and Coates showed me that a lot of people who screech about “infighting” on the left aren’t aware of the fact that marginalized people have been forced to learn how to regulate their emotions during conflict, and so, are better able to hear what’s actually being said.

In the plus column for communism, you could mandate a single brand of Tupperware-style boxes so the lid would always fit.

Mocking hen like this is totally the way to go. Calling them fascists and monsters makes them happy. Calling them weird will always make them upset. Question their manhood and mock them for being shitty fathers. This stuff. Trust me. It will get to them.

The fire happened in Islington - a place described by local leaders as a "proud beacon of tolerance".

Working in SEND with children and young people, talk of causes feels so fucking weird in 2025. The thought of causes and cures is so far from anyone’s day-to-day existence. Such dehumanising bullshit.

Ta-Nehasi Coates is doing a lot of things with this essay, but one of the most important is fearlessly using examples of anti-trans hate to describe Charlie Kirk's politics.

The contrast between his choices and those of other writers for major legacy outlets is revealing.
Charlie Kirk, Redeemed: A Political Class Finds Its Lost Cause
By ignoring the rhetoric and actions of the Turning Point USA founder, pundits and politicians are sanitizing his legacy.
