Watching Luke Combs sing beside Tracy Chapman with such obvious reverence makes the difference between appropriation and appreciation crystal clear.
When someone engages source material in a spirit of love, it shows.
Count all the ways he centers her, not himself 👇🏾
I used to drink too much.
Though most of the places where I used to show my ass, don’t exist anymore.
Nearly everyone you talk to is tryin to sell you a bill of goods… or just straight up lying to ya.
I once fell in love with a really good friend of mine…
I’m keenly aware of how damn complicated we all are… how who we have been ain’t who we are right now and who we are gonna be ain't even worried about any of the other us’s we’ve been and I’m in a spot where I’m not only at peace with these facts, I’m celebrating the shit out of them… and learning to live in the rhythm
here’s The Devil I Know.
Love, Ash

Damar Hamlin was moved to tears introducing the Bills training staff who saved his life as they were honored with the Pat Tillman Award for Service at the @ESPYS.
My son is 15
I never bought him a pride onesie when he was a baby.
I never read him a book that had two moms as part of the storyline.
When he was little stores and businesses didn’t have LGBTQ+ displays and we didn’t celebrate pride month.
He was raised Catholic, and went to church.
Guess what? He is gay.
The rainbow won’t make your kids gay. They are born that way. A display in a store won’t make your kid trans, they are born that way.
If you don’t love and accept them for who they are, YOU are a shitty parent.
They haven’t failed, you have.
🚨🚨🚨Holy shit: A father of a child who was killed in the Uvalde school shooting SLAMMED Texas legislators for their “useless thoughts and prayers.”
Brett Cross boldly testified in front of a Texas House committee in support of legislation that would raise the minimum age to buy semi-automatic weapons from 18 to 21.
Brett Cross: “I'm so sick of hearing those three words from our elected officials…
While your prayers may have comforted you, they did nothing to absolve our pain...
Your thoughts and prayers didn't stop an 18 year old from purchasing two high powered semi automatic rifles and all of those rounds of ammunition.
Your thoughts and prayers didn't stop us from having to bury our children and two teachers.
Your thoughts and prayers haven't done anything in the 329 days since Uziel was shot through his stomach exiting his spine.
Your thoughts and prayers are useless unless you have thought and prayed for legislation that you can help enact that could change this.”
Thank you so much to Brett Cross and these BRAVE parents for speaking out!
💙💙💙
@itmekaralee It’s the worst! I had to stop listening… I can’t stand the predictions! No one knows what BB is thinking except BB. We all know that, so why do we go through this every frigging year? At least some of them acknowledge they don’t know shit, but I still can’t stand it 😝
