James Baldwin is one of my favourite writers of all time. His writing is so intimate. Every time I read them, I feel like I'm alone in a room with him as he's telling me this story. Or I'm watching through a window of a real situation and no one knows I'm there.
He was also brave enough to not only write about Black characters when no one really wanted him to, but also to write about Black queer characters as well-- in the 1950s.
If you haven't read Giovanni's Room, Go Tell it on the Mountain, Notes of a Native Son, and I am Not Your Negro. He has so many other incredible works, but these four in particular are probably the more famous ones.
His writing is incredibly intimate, authentic and raw-- and it can be heavy, at times, absolutely. But he makes every word worth it.
Please check him out. He's not nearly as famous as he should have been-- everyone should have read at least one of his works in school, but it was never a priority, because he was a gay Black writer.
And some time, watch some youtube interviews with him-- as with his literature, his interviews feel very intimate and incredibly authentic. Please check him out.
James Baldwin at Junior’s Bar and Lounge on 52nd Street, during rehearsals for his play “Blues for Mister Charlie” in New York City, 1964.

Attempting to get the beast used to a dental hygiene routine is… well, it’s going.
(She stayed that way for a solid 8 seconds despite hating being held belly up so I think it’s safe to say that Mim is not beating the ‘tiny speaker playing elevator music instead of a brain’ allegations any time soon.)

THE PERFECT KILLING MACHINE
AN ARMY OF ONE
#ultrakill#art#fanart#this was fun#do not be tricked by this into thinking im actually a good artist#this was done with the power of an sfm render#tracing that render#and then mirroring it in two different ways#and then merging those mirrors#incredibly happy with the final product though#the ultrakill album art is so. STYLISH with the black-on-coloured-background style#and the intricate detail within that rocks#and i think i pulled it off not half bad

I don't mind giving a lil sneak peak since I've already shared my sketches on my IG stories so here's a pinkie pie redesign :D
(+ some rambling in the tags)
#Yes I gave her dreadlocks. Atleast tried#Mads says i should make them puffier to fit Pinkie's big hair vibe and she's not wronG- so I might change it#I just love people's take on her human design and make her black- that's something that makes me incredibly happy for some reason#ANYWAY HER#Fun fact : I used to run around YouTube as an MLP speedpaint person named RainFly Production a WHILE ago#That channel still exists#But I've gotten rid of most of the old videos on there#BUT YEAH#Used to be an MLP artist 👌#my art#doodle#my little pony#mlp fim#mlp#pinkie pie#mlp redesign#pinkie pie redesign

If anyone ever listens to music I post or recommend I am begging people to listen to The Vincent Black Shadow specifically these two albums for the love of god
#Cassie’s voice is just so incredible#I don’t know how to describe this genre of artist so if anyone listens to them and knows what to call them let me know!#please please please listen to at least one of the albums#music#music recs#the vincent black shadow#the Spotify page describes them as#��Blending a visual style influenced by European cabaret of the 1930s with music that's a spirited gumbo of pop punk metal and ska’

Max Goof,,,,, him
had to draw a design for him bc everyone and they mama drawing this boy as white as if he and his dad aren’t so clearly black
don’t look too closely at his locs, I been drawing this while getting my shit rocked by sleep meds
and here’s the finished version
#I look at goofy and I’m like#that’s my uncle if he wasn’t bald#goofy movies are black movies idk how we don’t know this you guys#I say we but I mean some of y’all#also I’m not dragging you for not having picked up on it#I genuinely just thought it was incredibly obvious#i think a lot of his designs are cute tbh I’m not dragging any artists#I just know that boy isn’t white#max goof#goofy movie#black artist#my art#wip

Even since Michael's heavenly ascend, not just the music industry but, quite frankly, the entertainment industry as a whole has been left with a massive void that I don't believe will be fulfilled in the near future or ever again. That man had a star power equivalent to three Galactuses at their most powerful. You will never witness someone like that ever again, not in this lifetime nor the next one. He was and still is one of a kind.
#michael jackson#txt#michael is one of the very very few celebs i actually care about even though he is no longer here with us physically#how come this man has been dead for nearly a decade and a half and he is still more relevant than the most relevant LIVING celebs rn????#that's how you know that if he was still around people would go just as insane over him as they did decades earlier#michael is the biggest celebrity artist performer entertainer of all time. there is no debate around this topic#the mj fandom on this site is practically dead but i know there are a few of you that will come across this and agree wholeheartedly#i manifest the biopic being a massive commercial and critical success#it will gross over $1 billion at the box office and become one of the most profitable movies of the 2020s as well as a staple in biopics#specially the musical ones. we are gonna make that happen#i mean we already do a far superior job to his actual goddamn estate so we can easily turn this into an overnight hit#not a sleeper hit/cult movie but an INSTANT hit#the closest people we got michael's level of legendary fame are paul mccartney and madonna but even they don't make as much noise#i'm (not) sorry but michael was truly built different. he was on a category of his own#a category so incredibly monstrously and insanely high that i don't believe anyone else will ever be able to reach it#no swifties taylor swift isn't on michael's level either#her level of fame is closer to madonna's at her peak#a massive star but not on michael's level. michael was practically worshipped outside of america even in the most racist anti-black#cultures you can think of. he broke racial barriers like that#and madonna was still bigger than taylor in her heyday lol#so what does that tell you?#i'm sorry but being famous was far more impactful back then than it is now#social media changed the dynamic between the public and celebs forever
