#BlackFriday #BlackJoy #BlackMastodon #BlackTwitter #LGBTQ The prompt from @BigAngBlack this week was to post on an LGBTQ+ icon. Picking just one was tough but I ended up having to go with the incredibly gifted choreographer and dancer Alvin Ailey. Even today I can find myself watching something he choreographed and not realizing I am holding my breathe. I found a 7 min doc that gives the essential bits about him.

I guess his big dick energy isn’t, ehem, rubbing off.

My teevee media diet is making me anorexic.
After binge rounds of Iron Chef and Man vs Food I turn the channel to MSNBC or CNN and, upon watching drone footage and sky cams one & two follow Donald Trump from Bedminster to the airport for his return to Mar-a-Lago and tomorrows arraignment...I evacuate the contents of my tummy on the kitchen floor. 🤮😒
I used to be a pedal to the metal proponent of artificial intelligence. But now that prominent scientists and journalists have proclaimed that it will destroy humanity, I’m starting to believe we’ll be destroyed by vague predictions about things that are not remotely possible now, and may or may not be possible within 3 years or, ya know, 50 years.
Brings to mind the maxim that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. 
Quit whining about Nazis. Be like Red Bike Guy. Humiliate these cowards. Hit them where they hurt the most. Their primal psychological fear of WOMEN.
He needs to be paid a little visit from Red Bike Guy.
Can’t we just get that Civil War thing over with already?  Like the first failure to split the union, America’s white supremacists have amassed weapons and are openly legislating against a minority of the citizenry while pushing stochastic terror. We the people could wrap this up in about three days with a web browser and fleet of drones. Let’s just light ‘em up and be done with it.
Thomas might actually resign if it would get Ginni out of a prosecution or conviction. I can’t see anything else persuading him though.

With a finite number of plots and almost infinite computer power, Kurt Vonnegut would be unfazed if AI syntaxed him out of a job. “And so it goes” he’d say. But he’d also say: “a purpose of human life, no matter who is controlling it, is to love whoever is around to be loved...” Wake me up when AI replaces moms.

Jiu-jitsu liberal. Couldn't drink well enough to be a writer or a lawyer. Became a stoned philosopher instead. Sometimes pay the bills.
