A very rare but very incredible piece of funk! That intro with the drums and the killer bass!
Fun fact: this singer was likely gay and definitely a drag performer/female impersonator. This is the last song he recorded before retiring from show biz! What a track to go out on!
Here is him ten years before the above came out, on video

1980s Horror Film Character Names
I totally forgot I’d started making this last year! I think I never posted it because I wanted to find more names, but there’s already a decent amount and I don’t feel like being that tedious about names right now lol.
It’s first & last names (separated for mix & match potential) of characters from iconic late 1970s & 1980s horror movies. I think I started looking for cheesier B-movies to pull from, but yeah it’s been a whole year so I forget.

Underrepesnetion of Race in Friends and Seinfeld and its impact.
Friends and Seinfeld are arguably the two biggest/influential Television shows in modern American History. These shows both aired in the 90’s and so much about both of the shows had a massive impact on American culture in the 90’s and continue to do to this day. Incredibly popular shows like these impact the way people talk, dress, think and live all together.  While these two shows are extremely influential, iconic, funny and overall good shows there is one massive flaw that both of these shows share. Both of these shows are poor in their ability to display consistent minority representation throughout their stories, particularly representation of the black community. 
In this blog I will do my best to illustrate the importance of minority representation in mainstream media and why a lack of representation is bad for everyone, and highlight a consistent lack of representation in mainstream shows such as Friends and Seinfeld. When there is a lack of racial representation in a form of mainstream media that is seen by millions of people and is extremely influential like Seinfeld or Friends it can cause and fuel many issues in our everyday life and to society as a whole in the long run.  
Firstly breaking down the lack of minority representation in both shows. Between the two shows there are 10 “main Characters”, every one of them is white. The heavy majority of all the supporting characters in each series are white as well.  When you google search “Friends Cast" or “Seinfeld Cast” and you click on the full list of cast members provided for you, in both cases you see a wall of about fifty actors who are all white besides a very small handful. Throughout both sitcoms there are of course some examples of representation of minority characters but for most of time we see life in these shows represented only by white people. 
This issue of a lack of representation in mainstream T.V. does not stop with these two shows. More modern shows like the Big Bang Theory, How I met your Mother and Two and Half Men which are all massive shows have similar problems. We can point to the lack of representation in Friends and Seinfeld as one of the reasons why the shows that followed lack in representation. Seinfeld and Friends are the gold standard for sitcoms in our country so when new ones are made Seinfeld and Friends are looked at as the model shows. Friends and Seinfeld showed that they did very well by showing an all white world to their viewers, and the other shows followed their blueprint. This has allowed the problem with minority representation to continue longer than it should. Dr. Darnell Hunt and Dr. Ana-Christiana Ramon discussed this issue in a Forbes article called “TV Viewers Favor Shows with Diverse Casts and Authentic Storylines”. “Despite some minor gains in 2021-22, people of color and women remained underrepresented in most television employment arenas.”  
Furthermore, from a storytelling perspective the lack of diversity and representation do not make much sense from a logical perspective. Both Friends and Seinfeld take place in New York City which is one of the most diverse and populated cities in America. So the fact that for most of both Seinfeld and friends we saw mostly only white people portray a lifestyle that involved mostly only other white people and rarely displayed a different culture or lifestyle does not make much sense.  
Now discussing why minority representation in the media is so important. As I previously touched upon, big sitcom’s that are cultural phenomenons like Friends and Seinfeld are extremely influential to those who watch them. The shows have the most impact on young people as they are the most impressionable, and there are many positive benefits for having good representation in mainstream media as it pertains to the young minority population in our country. PBS news reported on this very issue by asking young members of minority groups why representation is important to them. 
The students talked about how helpful it is to them when a show properly represents their minority group. Being a minority, sometimes people don’t understand certain things about their way of life and when there is proper representation it is easier to connect with people who do not understand because they can point to that representation as an example.  Seeing proper representation also makes people in minority groups feel more comfortable and welcomed. 
Representation is also a sign of respect, and when a minority culture is represented well they will feel more appreciated and more of a part of American Culture overall. Proper representation is also beneficial to young people who are not in minority groups as they can learn and understand things about whatever minority group is representative. This causes less ignorance as a whole which leads to an overall better environment for the young minority population to grow up and live in.

Furthermore, a lack of representation is just as detrimental as good representation is beneficial.  Kyra Mcnally Albers dives deep into how a lack of representation can impact young members in minority groups in the article “The Detrimental Effects of Poor Minority Representation in Children’s Media”. She talks about how shows do impact the perspective of a young minority and how a lack of representation can be damaging for their mental health and outlook as a whole. “This becomes problematic when the main characters of their favorite shows are all straight and white—it teaches them that protagonists and change-makers can only be one kind of person, and that if they aren’t that kind of person, they are either invalid or fated to be a side character. Minority children’s, and then minority adolescents’, mental health and self-esteem tends to wane because of this lack of representation (Albers, Page 1)”. A lot of kids in our culture shape a lot of their personality off of their favorite shows because it allows them to express their passion and usually that passion is related to them being able to identify with someone in the show.  A problem minority groups face is not being able to identify with characters in shows like friends and Seinfeld , this can lead to them feeling excluded and out of place in relation to a lot of their peers because they are all able to relate and enjoy the shows together because they all can relate to the characters and show more.
Minorities can also feel underrepresented by the lifestyle that is portrayed in shows that don’t have proper minority representation. In shows like this when all the main characters are white they do perpetuate a white lifestyle, this finds its way into our everyday society because people mimic what the characters on their favorite T.V. shows do because they identify with them. When people who are minorities don’t see their lifestyle being represented it can be bad for their overall mental health. “Television can teach children how they should live and act, which can invoke confusion, anxiety or depression when the children’s personalities do not line up with how they are being told to act (Albers, Page 1).”
(Well I believe the age demographic of the people she discuss in this article and the quotes I included are a little younger than the age demographic of people I am talking about, her points of discussion supporting the need for representation support and are relevant to my point)
In summary Friends and Seinfeld are two shows that have dominated mainstream media and have impacted and influenced American culture since the 1990’s. Both of these shows do a very poor job when it comes to representing minorities and minority lifestyles throughout their stories. Since both Friends and Seinfeld have ended there have been many popular shows like these two who have also failed at properly and consistently representing the minority population in modern day America.  
Misrepresentation in mainstream media is not a good trend and can negatively impact people in minority cultures and most notably young people in minority cultures. A lack of proper representation can lead people who are minorities to feel excluded in compared to their peers who are represented, it can also lead to them having to deal with more ignorance from others those who are not familiar with their culture as there is a lot of mainstream representation of it and it can lead to young minorities to question their own culture and feel worse about it because they do not see it get as much representation and attention as other cultures do.   
Positive representation on the other hand is very beneficial and it has been shown that when people in minority groups are represented consistently and in a positive manner that it really has a positive impact on their outlook and self-esteem.
Friends and Seinfeld are two shows that did not have good representation and contributed and in a way started somewhat of a pattern of underrepresentation in mainstream media particularly in television shows.  Representation of minority groups is extremely important to have in mainstream media as it brings many benefits not only to minority groups but to everyone.

spiritual experiences | DEGREE
i view spiritual experiences as heightened sensory perception - unlocked mind states that alert us to frequencies, particles, charges in the atmosphere or body (at what distance or scale?) that can (but need not) be systematically explained with academic, scientific, mathematic nomenclature, and can (but need not) be traced through the literary and artistic contributions of every human civilization on the earth. 
scientists, spiritualists, theists, philosophers, mathematicians, inventors, artists, thought-leaders have recorded and expressed their spiritual experiences and extra-terrestrial encounters in every field of human endeavor, refined them, and passed them down generation after generation by divers means. the collective witness of something beyond is statistically potent, and because we have interacted with the imagination of it, whether or not it exists, it is functionally relevant to human society, and to questions of academic inquiry & validation as related to political process & particpation. 
i have been described, and described myself, as a spiritual person, never fully knowing, understanding, overstanding what spiritual means. 
how does a spiritual person respond to their own citizenship of and participation in a political nation? an official non-religious nation which claims religious freedoms and sustains itself on a system that rejects the religious & spiritual needs and testimonies of its constituents through institutionalized medical, educational, military, ideological, and monetary might in order to foster a more materially productive (as understood by witness of the industrial age) society?
religious freedom is restricted by the religion of the non-religious state.  if the nation under god is non-religious, what is it? 
SCIENCE because what is widely understood and accepted as science has relied on a white-supremacist, patriarchal, anti-black, anti-indigenous, anti-individual, capitalistic worldview, i have come to understand its advance not necessarily as a progressive learning, but as a poetic retelling of what has already been witnessed, assessed, experienced, known, and retold by subjects of colonization on this earth across a span of space and time that cannot be measured or all accounted for by any modern technology that i’m aware of.
and if a spiritual person were to progress in a secular field, the field demands a betrayal, a sacrifice of whatever spiritual heritage built their understanding that doesn’t fit into the accepted paradigm of the secular institution. a betrayal made in order to better and more efficiently participate in a charade of knowledge for the secular state and its unwitting nationalists.
who holds the vestige of truth, of societal validation, if the atheist and the theist are working to prove/disprove the same claims and achieve the same goals? the buddhist and the sadist? the muslim and the jew? the zionist and the israelite?
the powerful. the literate. the documented. the rich. the beautiful. the cunning.  the seekers.  the self. (as defined by relation to these roles) the ever-shifting upper class that continues to rely on and transcend anti-blackness all at once. 
the distinction between what is religious and secular, political and spiritual, academic and mythological, exist only in name because their functions are the same: communicate to people. the scales, ends, and methodologies vary, but they are inextricably bound to each other by their use of codified language to achieve their desired ends, partnered with the human resistance or encouragement of theocratic, democratic, communistic, socialist, anarchist, or otherwise living society at any given time. 
what then, is the value of a degree conferred by a societally recognized institution of higher learning, if enlightenment cannot be codified - but is the end goal of all human endeavor?
