I’m in an airport and the guy next to me has been watching videos with NO HEADPHONES. It’s so annoying. I finally took out my phone and started doing the same. But I made sure to slowly increase my volume over his. He looked over at me like he was super annoyed. And then turned off his phone. Maybe we just need to start matching the energy of these main character narcissists.

Timeless aura and fit because what do you mean this photo was taken 54 years ago and not last week?

@Rokewood Very sad news. It was my childhood church and I was baptized there. It was such a beacon for the community.

Not just one of the best scenes in Black TV History, but American Television history.

Thanks for the memories Malcolm Jamal-Warner.

This is how I’ll remember you. 🤩

O maior fotógrafo do Brasil e um dos maiores do mundo descansa hoje. Vá em paz, Sebastião Salgado.

Descansa em paz, Sebastião Salgado.

Fotógrafo de genialidade ímpar.

Denunciou a fome, retratou a revolução dos cravos, registrou a cultura dos povos indígenas. Trajetória irretocável.

Whitney Houston once said to me that Roberta Flack’s voice was one of the purest voices she’d ever heard. I grew up scouring the records my Parents collected. Mrs. Flack was one of their favorites and quite instantly became one of mine as soon as I was exposed to her. She looked cool and intelligent, gentle and yet militant. The songs she recorded from ‘Compared To What’ to ‘The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face’ to her version of ‘Ballad Of The Sad Young Men’ fascinated me with their beauty and sophistication. Mrs. Flack was an artist, a singer-songwriter, a pianist and composer who moved me and showed me through her own creative choices and standards what else was possible within the idiom of Soul. Killing Me Softly, a song Mrs. Flack didn’t write, but made hugely popular became the song that catapulted myself and the Fugees into household phenomena. We wanted to honor the beauty and brilliance of this song and her performance of it to our generation. I will forever be grateful for the sensitivity and delicate power of her Love and Artistry. Rest in Grace Beloved One. 🌹

The Ice Plant - Delosperma 'Fire Spinner' hardy USDA 5 to 10. This plant did equally well for me in Sydney and Utah. Two completely different climates. And that COLOR!

I got nothing to plug so instead have a look at this other amazing border that unfortunately ceased to exist last night
