I've been Charley on social media for over a decade & I've also had IRL harassment so no personal photo or surname on my profile.
But if you ever want to know what I'm like & who I am, in 2018 I did a video for Final Say for All about me & why Brexit was personal:

Never mind all the charm and talent. That much of Isiah is always onscreen and utterly obvious.
Instead, a last word to let everyone know what isn't evidenced on film: He was an even better person than he was an actor; a warm and gracious delight of a man. Goodbye, friend.

"Whitlock didn’t steal scenes as much as he elevated them, becoming a part of the fabric of storytellers like David Simon and Spike Lee, who knew exactly how to use this stealthy genius,” writes @briantallerico.bsky.social in his tribute to the late Isiah Whitlock Jr.
A Brilliant Actor and Even Better Person: Isiah Whitlock Jr. (1954-2025) | Tributes | Roger Ebert
A tribute to the star of The Wire and several Spike Lee joints.

Trump again disgracing the office of President with his outrageous slander of Tim Walz and Ilhan Omar, then ending with "NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW!" like he didn't just escape the law on several counts because of the DOJ's policy of not prosecuting sitting Presidents

A reminder - before Trump, MAGA, Musk and Fox rewrote history - that this is what the entire country agreed had happened five years ago today:

Look at this wonderful hourglass-shaped record of the way that night extends and recedes into our days as the year passes.
Happy new year! My all sky camera imaged the sky every 15 seconds and this picture shows what happened in the sky in 2025. It shows the length of the night and day with the hourglass shape, the monthly lunar cycle with the diagonal bands, the elevation of the Sun at local noon, and lots of clouds.

Great thread. Worth a watch.
I've watched thousands of videos from the Jan. 6 riot as part of NPR's reporting and archive project on that day.
Here are some of the lesser known videos that have really stuck with me.
