Elated to share I successfully defended my dissertation today & become Dr. Kelvin Rutledge. Many thanks to @FSU_HE & all the wonderful #SADoc, #SAPro, & more who made this journey all the more possible. Choosing joy and claiming the blessings ahead as It’s only up from here ✨💖

@DrBritWilliams Oh yes, that lounge is pristine 😮‍💨🙏🏾🙌🏾

2) At its core, concert experiences are rooted in both individual prioritization and disposable income. We all make choices on who is and isn’t non-negotiable. I think contingency on liking new music isn’t always fair to artists who love to perform. It’s a delicate balance.

2 quick thoughts re: Concerts “discourse”

1) I think it’s important to remember that not every fan gets to do every tour. I didn’t get to see .@VictoriaMonet in her last cycle. Im excited for a chance to finally see her at a time that works for me & hear things I love live!

@michelinmillen Always pro roasted Brussel sprouts tossed in a blueberry balsamic vinegar over here 😮‍💨😅

While I appreciate the @LimeScooters_ integration into @Uber, it's really not helpful to not overlay the no-scooter zones with scooter availability when starting. There's nothing more frustrating that starting a session, then 5 minutes into it reaching an entire no scooter zone.

Ok. I know everyone is talking about Blue but is she not standing next to Donna Summer??!?!

🗣️ Somebody get on the line and get Kelly into a Donna biopic NEOW

[Beyoncé Brasil 🐊 @beyoncebrasil]

BLUE & KELLY 🖤

@DrJoseValentine Because the vision is so clear!

This was an ABSOLUTE HIT at the dance clubs in the US (as evident in chart). I Couldn’t go to a gay bar in 2010/2011 and not hear this at some point in the night. My goodness 😮‍💨😮‍💨

[dizfize @rihmemberdiz]

I had no idea Who’s That Chick was a Smash Hit😭

[Kelvin Rutledge, Ph.D. @DrAbsoluteZero]

What’s crazy about a Beyoncé Concert is that the day after you’ll see folks upload their photos and stuff and you’ll be like YOU WAS AT THE CONCERT LAST NIGHT TOO?!?!

Friend and I both had this happen on sepeate occasions 😅☠️

[Kelvin Rutledge, Ph.D. @DrAbsoluteZero]

Every time I open Facebook and I have a memory from that 15-18 years ago time frame, it’s always like “huh???” Moment because how did we get here. 😅😅

[Kelvin Rutledge, Ph.D. @DrAbsoluteZero]

Baby all I needed was a night out at Backstage in Atlanta and my Southern chakras have been indefinitely reset to endure the summer ahead in New England.

Black ATL never ceases to not be good for the soul.

@DrBritWilliams Lovvveee Invites. Great way to organize music, photos, and everything for a trip. Gotta few in the queue now like this one for folks 😅😅
