Would a shutdown even be a surpise? Trump was the President during last shutdown in 2018 - the longest in US history - and it was over 5.7 billy he wanted for that b-s wall he promised his flock Mexico would pay for. This tweet may age even worse now....

I can’t believe I’m just now learning those white gloves that cartoon characters wear have a direct/historical connection to minstrel shows. It wasn’t until later that they became a standard part of the cartoon style for practical, artistic, etc. reasons vs racist.

From a young age, society often conditions us to believe that moral obligation lies in showing up for everybody else before we show up for ourselves. Showing up for yourself first can mean you may have to disappoint others from time to time, and that is something you have to learn to be ok with.

Adulting, work, and more shooting = behind on posting and sharing. Here are some of my #DragonCon #Cosplay photos…

The way a lot of opinions and tunes are changing as Charlie Kirk’s killer isn’t turning out to be trans or anything else they assumed he would be. 👀

My love for GloRilla has increased tenfold with that new track flamin’ Young Thug. Thats some lunch room clowning and neighborhood joanin’ type shit. Has me over here dying. 😂

Finally! Sonder released this on vinyl. "Too Late to Die Young" sounds like 2 a.m. confessions and feels like heartbreak and hope wrapped in smoke. #Sonder #Vinyl #RnB #VinylJourney #TooLateToDieYoung

Interesting seeing all these Charlie Kirk posts; especially those saying nobody should die because of what they say or their politics, while it was pretty much crickets from these same folk when Melissa Hortman was assassinated. #JustAnObservation #SelectiveOutrage

So true! 😂 #relationships #singlelife

RIP Prodigy Hearing his voice…… youtu.be/sWau4F1-tJU?...

Felt like a Food & Liquor kind of day. I remember when "Kick, Push" dropped. It felt like a love story... a rebel story... and a coming-of-age anthem for every Black kid who felt, looked, etc. a little different but was still 100% hip-hop. #LupeFiasco #Vinyl #HipHop #FoodAndLiquor 🎧

Whether cleaning or chillaxin’, these Solange albums will get it done. 🎧 #vinyl #vinyljourney #rnb

Today is my Friday! I haven't taken any time off since starting the new position. Even the new hire has taken some leave before me. I haven't been able to do as much shooting either. #ReadyForDragonCon #INeedABreak #DustingOffTheCamera

This video of Devon and Braheim Fowler gets me every time.

Jillian Michaels is out here rehashing misleading stats to whitewash history. Her 2% ignores households, erases earlier history of higher percentages, ignores that her 2% ownership was of around 4 million black folk at that time compared to only around 500,000 black folk being so called ‘free’, etc.

Coworker found out I love music just as much as he does; now he keeps texting me songs and video clips. 🤦🏾‍♂️

My hats always off to anyone able to pull off a successful event; especially a con. I’m seeing more and more fails and guests and supporters getting f**ked over in the process.

In 2011, a faceless voice dropped their free mixtape via a link to a zip file online— shifting the sound; and path, of what we considered RnB towards a darker, genre-bending sound that was lyrically introspective. #TheWeeknd #HouseOfBalloons #RnB #Vinyl #Viny|Journey 🎧

Some of the shots from a recent shoot with @j.j.thejetp (IG) 📸 #photography #mvmodel #boudoir #dmvphotographer #pinkandwhite

At 17, Nas kicked off his career with what is arguably one of the most infamous lines in rap history: "Street's disciple, my raps are trifle / I shoot slugs from my brain just like a rifle." By the time song, everyone was asking, "Who the hell is Nas?" #Nas #Vinyl #VinylJourney #HipHop 🎧

I have to get my coworkers into Chit. I need someone to get me when I say “Do it lady!” 😂

Snagged one when they became available on his site, and it finally arrived. Maybe it’s nostalgia, but Channel Orange has had more spins than Blonde; taking me back to the tumblr days when I first heard Pyramids. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #Vinyl #FrankOcean #ChannelOrange #VinylJourney

30 Day Trial Period is over. I guess this new Team Lead/Defense Task Manager thing is official. 😅

“28 Days Later” was cool. “28 Weeks Later” was tolerable. The latest movie though….. I’m glad I watched this shit for free. A disjointed mess!

I haven’t kept up with South Park, but I’m suddenly inspired to watch an episode.

I finally saw the XXL Freshman Cypher and I and I couldn’t tell if that was a skit or not. Bruh!

Always try to keep a comfortable and happy home. Coming home to a place that feels good, leaves you feeling good. A good practice is to get/keep things for the home that will make you smile. Then get rid of anything that does the opposite.... including a man or woman. 👌🏾

If you like Jungle's music, be sure to check out Loaded Honey's album - "Love Made Trees"; the team-up of Lydia Kitto and J Lloyd from the group. 🎧 youtu.be/_miJ6AL3R7w?...

I was able to find myself a copy the first-time reissue of the first ever heart-shaped red vinyl 45; Bobby Caldwell’s “What You Won’t Do for Love / Open Your Eyes” when it dropped. “What You Won’t Do for Love” is definitely a timeless classic. #vinyl #timeless #classic

As usual, instant a new anime series before finishing the series’ I’m already watching, but Tougen Anki seems promising.

Every time I pay a bill…..

Hell nah! I’ll have to meet y’all there. No way I’m staying in that car or ever getting in it again. 😂

A Blonde kinda night. When I first heard the album, I really liked it, but I didn’t get why so many adored it so much. Flashforward to today, it had grown on me so much that I was happy to see the vinyl being restocked and had to get myself a copy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #FrankOcean #Vinyl #Blonde

Thunderstorm starting right as I walk in the door. About to do what my grandma used to tell me, be quiet and go lay down somewhere. #NapTime

Marvel fans had been speculating; and anticipating, Mephisto’s debut into the MCU since Wandavision, and so many of them will miss it due to their racism and misogyny. 🫠

😂💯

This muuphucka would risk his life to save someone else’s kid, but wouldn’t even get on a plane to go see his own. #SquidGame

Today was my first official day as the new Defense Travel Task Manager. 🫡

It was past time to replace my TV in the living room, so I decided to upgrade my receiver too; something that worked/sounded better with vinyl. I had always been a Denon guy, but I went with Marantz this time around. 📺 📻 Now I just hope this new equipment can last anywhere near as long as the old.🤞🏾

😂 These horror game reactions are hilarious. These games will fuck you up though. Never heard of this series til now. 🎮 Game: Silent Still 2 Streamer: ttone

I had to revisit a classic on vinyl. Widely considered one of the greatest rap albums; Illmatic both changed and defined its time. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #Nas #Illmatic #Vinyl #Classic #HipHop

You know Ready to Die has to be in the collection. What better way than by finding a copy of the multi-colored vinyl repress from Vinyl Me Please (VMP). #NotoriousBIG #ReadyToDie #Hiphop #Vinyl

The vinyl for Supreme Clientele; back into print for the 25th Anniversary. You know I had to get a copy. 🎧

Enjoyed her music; and still play it, but not enough to have gone to see her live…. so I don’t know if Amerie is just rusty for her Tiny Desk or if she is another one of those artists that only sounds good produced vs live. Some of those notes 😬

Some of the cosplays and cosplayers I shot at Momocon….

New-ish coworker has tried to throw me under the bus a few times on the low. Welp! Next month I wont be just her coworker; I'll be the team lead. I hope she leaves before then. I interviewed two great candidates for my current position. I could then just hire them both.

You know what they say about an album after a breakup. Looks like Teyana Taylor is gonna definitely be in her bag. youtu.be/VvoFOHo9bCQ?...
