Wow, I thought I knew.
I'll be saying this all the time now. 😂
"Transmitted within families of African descent, the candombe is recognized as an expression of resistance, a Uruguayan celebration and a collective social practice deeply interwoven in the daily life of these neighbourhoods. It's also a symbol and manifestation of the memory of the community."

A lot of people really only care about making things better for themselves specifically and that's a problem we really need to find a way to address.
You said it so well because me too.
I'm surrounded by investment properties that don't clear their sidewalks. Owner next door lives in Toronto! and the sidewalk's hardly ever shovelled. 🫤
It's a business: either hire someone to clear it, force your tenants to do it via contract, or do it yourself.

Chalamet was asked to summarize Dune and it was rough going.
Angel: "It even makes him cute and endearing. But if you're an adult and you're in an important job, I strongly recommend you practice ahead of time… Because you may not receive the same grace from your co-workers, clients or bosses."
Angel breaks down Timothée Chalamet's mistakes— it's very informative.
In the first video breaking down Chalamet's French, Angel said Chalamet spoke with a child's grammar— as if his vocabulary was frozen in time.
TC has the accent, but makes many mistakes on gender of words, prepositions, etc.

As a former moderator I'm heavy on let the machine do it. A hybrid model will be the best approach but let the machine throw out the real sick stuff first. Humans can get involved if there's a quibble about the machine's decision.
It took me 2.5 yrs to shake hands after quitting content moderator.

Poem called "Learn To Swim" by Joshua Idehen is incredibly beautiful. So many words of wisdom, both funny and heartbreaking.
Stay cool, learn to swim
Nah, mate, you're not too heavy
Your bones are not too dense
Pennywise was right
In the end, everyone floats
- Joshua Idehen,
"Learn to Swim"
So glad that Joshua Idehen @joshuaidehen.bsky.social is here
So much political, economic, social, and theological theory and humor in this song.
And humor. 🎶🎧👑

I’ve been listening to this on repeat this week. It’s a very good album, and maybe my favorite album title ever?
Wish Erica Buddington was on here, and Langston League.
They are on IG.

Her references DON'T MISS!!
Love that a reference to Saidiya Hartman's "Wayward Lives, Beautiful Experiements" is in the syllabus for Sinners, and so many other bangers, because yaaaaaasssss!

Unless they wrote a LoveCraft book based on the series, the original novel is racist.
Loved the syllabus (with references and recs) created by the folks at Langston League for each episode.
Looks like they created syllabus for Sinners too. #BlackSky #Sinners

I clicked through and looked.

No worries. Not even sure that the app has a way to add alt-text to uploaded video.
I can make out the book title, "Born in Flames: The Business of Arson and the Remaking of the American City" by Bench Ansfield (adding here for folks).
I cannot read the white text, but guessing it's praise. 📚🩵
