Wait…this just fully hit me. Do you know how insane this is considering his career started in the 1960s???

@_Prettyyassh They hear but don't listen

This guy has been asking me to go out for drinks and I told him I don’t drink anymore. He just asked again & now I’m blocking him lmaoooo bc why are you not listening to what I’ve already said? 😭

With deep sorrow, we say farewell to one of the final sentinels of the Tuskegee Airmen. George E. Hardy, who once danced across the skies of Europe in his Mustang has taken his final flight at the age of 100. Leaving behind a legacy forged in courage, resilience, and unwavering dignity. It began in a quiet room in Philadelphia. A 16-year-old boy hunched over his homework as the radio crackled with the news of Pearl Harbor. In that instant, the world fractured, and George’s childhood evaporated. He didn't wait for history to call; he went to meet it. Denied entry because of the color of his skin, he didn't retreat. He leaned into the wind. He joined the U.S. Army Air Forces, arriving at Tuskegee not just to learn the mechanics of flight, but to dismantle the mechanics of prejudice. By 19, George was a "Red Tail," a guardian of the clouds. While the world below was segregated, the flak in the European theater was indifferent. He flew 21 combat missions over Nazi-occupied territory, a teenager in a cockpit proving that valor has no pedigree. Most men would have seen enough of war. George was not most men. - World War II: 21 combat missions in the P-51 Mustang. - Korea: 45 combat missions, braving the dawn of the jet age. - Vietnam: 70 combat missions, a veteran hand guiding a new generation. For nearly thirty years, he wore the uniform of a country that didn't always love him back, yet he protected it with a devotion that shames the very idea of hate. When he finally climbed out of the cockpit, he didn't stop serving. As a Lieutenant Colonel, he helped architect the military’s first global communication systems. He spent his sunset years ensuring that those who followed him would never be out of reach, never be truly alone in the dark. "He rose above the clouds so we could finally see the light." Today, we don't just salute a pilot. We salute a man who endured the sting of Jim Crow to earn the silver wings of a hero. He was the quiet defiance in the face of "no," the steady hand in the cockpit, and the humble heart in the room. The "Red Tails" are thinning now, their formation heading into the eternal sunset. But as George E. Hardy crosses the ultimate horizon, he leaves behind a legacy etched not in ink, but in the very air we breathe. Rest well, Colonel. The watch is ours. The sky is yours.

@BSO Agreed

It’s 2Pac “Me Against the World” record type of day. I consider it his best work. The best example of his duplicity. “So Many Tears” my favorite Pac song of all time. This is after he was shot in NY and was in jail. Things were looking bleak and you can feel it the music.

@lakesheezy Yup. Annoying as F.

Nothing worse than a person telling you about something they literally have no knowledge about lol

@BriMalandro And “love a woman” ft beyonce was a hit that got away 🔥

The real tragedy of that crispy chicken song is that people don’t even know it’s a remake of a real Mary song and it’s one of her best songs from the 2010s music.apple.com/us/album/dont-…

The older you get, the more you realize that if something genuinely makes you happy, it’s usually smartest to keep it private.
