@leebee4life I need to hear the call for hbcus alums to donate to their respective schools' athletic depts so they can be in a position to recruit. This is on the whole community, not just the billionaires

And Black billionaires in industry and entertainment should provide aid for the young athletes who make this sacrifice.

The NAACP is urging Black athletes and fans to “withhold athletic and financial support” from public universities in states that “have moved to limit, weaken or erase Black voting representation”

@Smilerssun @ladygaga @MileyCyrus @LanaDReyOnline @Beyonce @billieeilish @lorde @selenagomez @ddlovato @Adele @taylorswift13 Tina Turner had a hit record in 1960, just two years after Madonna was born.

this is definitely one of the coolest things to happen at work recently

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.

@MyFirstDrug @MrMarinKnows In general, Prince wasn't political, but he admired Obama. That's why he played there.
Those believing that he would be aligned with maga are projecting. Wish they would stop being weird....
English
@BloggersVerse @MrMarinKnows He performed for Obama and recognised how significant it was for the US to have the first Black president. But I remember hearing that he said Obama was "no different than the rest" or "or we have the same problems under him" or something to that effect (I'm paraphrasing).

Racist MAGA Prince fans and raging homophobic Michael Jackson fans are two type of people that genuinely confuse me.

Ryan Murphy says Madonna is the “most important artist of the last 50 years”:
“No one comes close in cultural import, other than Taylor Swift and Paul McCartney, both of whom are truly incredible artists for the ages. […] The hate Madonna has received, and survived. It's beyond comprehension. There is no one in my lifetime who has meant more to me, or had more of an impact on art, fashion, music,
ALL OF IT. Than Madonna.”

@dissident_homo @FreakySatoshi @tulsaver @PopCrave I'm not presenting myself as a fashion expert (tho my first job was at Neiman Marcus Bev Hills). But it appears that JP Gaultier's design was already 7 yrs old and in the public domain when he & Madonna collaborated on her vid.
MJ's red thriller jacket > cone bra
English
@BloggersVerse @FreakySatoshi @tulsaver @PopCrave Madonna's cone bra beats Michael's glove any day.
Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Katy Perry, Megan the Stallion, Dua Lipa and more have all worn the cone bra that was totally inspired by Madonna.
English
@dissident_homo @FreakySatoshi @tulsaver @PopCrave lol - MJ has the slow cuts, the disco cuts, the social/political cuts (We Are The World). Bro sang a song about a rat and won a global globe award for best song. Fashion - Drake is out here, today, wearing MJ's glove. I get it tho, Madonna means more to your 'circle' (lifeslye)
English
@FreakySatoshi @tulsaver @BloggersVerse @PopCrave Madonna has fashion, musical versatility, iconic videos, academic University programs dedicated to studying her cultural impact, her name was dropped in movies, tv shows, etc.
Michael didn't have these (except maybe the videos).
English
@dissident_homo @FreakySatoshi @tulsaver @PopCrave The best 'nonconformist' in the last 50 years was Prince
English
@dissident_homo @FreakySatoshi @tulsaver @PopCrave ok, the reason i asked is that I lived MJ's complete musical journey, beginning with his Ed Sullivan performance (J5)s
I was a few years younger, but I experienced every MJ iteration. Basically, every time he performed, he was ahead of the culture, musically & performance wise
English
English
@FreakySatoshi @tulsaver @BloggersVerse @PopCrave He never did anything transgressive. He was safe. Never changed his style, danced the same way for 40 years and never evolved musically. He wasn't a daring artist.

@dissident_homo @PopCrave How was he a 'conformist' when he was way ahead of everybody? In fact, I've got his sister (JJ) ahead of Madonna..
English
@PopCrave Michael was a conformist. All you have to do is look at the difference in reactions to his "Black or White" video and Madonna's "Justify My Love". He backed down. She didn't. She always had bigger balls than him.
English
@LeftSentThis The fact that he had Ryan Garcia on today told me everything I needed to know.

Stephen A. Smith’s willingness to relentlessly hate on Black male athletes (as entertainment) is a key factor in his success at ESPN.
English
@itsonlyybb @mymixtapez That’s in Santa Ana, CA. (Bristol street) so no. Not only that - you can clearly see they weren't.
To add, trust, they wouldn't know anybody named 'gemelo'...lol
English
Video surfaces of Mexican singer Gemelo holding his own as he was jumped by masked men in California 😳🇲🇽

@zxsmithh Justifies it with gpt
Not even empty brains, there are worms in there.

Comparing somebody suddenly dying to a break up….we are truly surrounded by the most tapped brains😭😭
Optimus Fine@sunnydaejones
"Why are females so obsessed with Megan the Stallion lol" Oh so the men who had to take the day off work when Kobe Bryant died suddenly don't understand that you can have sympathy towards a celebrity you don't know.

@igotagonow @historyrock_ 😂😂 no. MJ, Prince & James Brown absolutely CLEARS Elvis.

Michael Jackson is one of the greatest performers of all time. Period.

@BloggersVerse How about the convex discord show and tell channel convex.dev/community

@waynesutton Hello Wayne — I'm building something on Convex I think you'd genuinely find interesting. How can I share it with you?
