Weekend rec: A double-bill. Rent the #movie Far From Heaven and the Little Richard #documentary I Am Everything, and watch them back-to-back. Why? Because Far From Heaven depicts the "straitjacketed" world that Little Richard and rock 'n' roll helped liberate society from. #PrideMonth #Movies 1/5

The film "Sinners" highlighted a lesser-known connection between Black culture and Chinese immigrants in Mississippi. However, did you know that there is another interesting connection between Chinese immigrants and the African diaspora that is particularly important to music? #blackmusicmonth 1/14

Kook & The Gang "Summer Madness" 1974. If you're GenX, you'll recognize the tune from DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince's monster hit in 1991, but they built it from one of the smoothest instrumentals ever. It doesn't just sound like summer; it feels like warm, hazy summer afternoons.

This is an argument that isn’t used enough. Feminism liberated men as much as it did women. The same goes for civil rights overall. The expansion of rights benefits all of us.
The most damaging myth in American politics is that "feminism makes men lonely."
1. W/o feminism and sexual liberation, men would still rely on their parents to buy them wives who end up hating them.
2. In MAGA holy lands like Russia and Hungary, marriage and fertility are collapsing even harder.

Imagine how far away the photographer had to be to get this shot.
What does the Milky Way look like from the side? Thanks to data from ESA’s Gaia mission, we now have a detailed map showing its thin, warped disk — home to our Sun and billions of stars. A stunning view of our galaxy’s true shape.
