D’Angelo is gone and I am not okay.
I was in the middle of college when “Brown Sugar” was released and it changed my musical world. The neo-soul movement defined my early-mid 20s and D’Angelo, for me, was its voice. RIP.

D'Angelo, R&B's reluctant icon, has died at 51
The expressive singer made just three albums, including his 1995 debut, Brown Sugar, but retreated from the public after each. He had been battling cancer, according to a statement from his family.

KBJ’s blunt question today about the Supreme Court’s culture war hypocrisy kind of floored me, because it’s the kind of meta-criticism that we aren’t used to hearing from the justices.
It’s the second day of the term, and things are that dire already. slate.com/news-and-pol...

In constitutional litigation based on equal protection, there are times when the government doesn’t have to justify its actions based on what it REALLY wanted to achieve, but rather, can do so based on any plausible justification that might theoretically make sense.
What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders?
Congressional offices are each handed (roughly) the same amount of money and told to staff up however they want. There are some “standard” models (which result in shit wages and worse expertise) but some offices get creative with it.

Most illicit drugs cost pennies per dose to manufacture. Prohibition is basically a price support for drug traffickers. We will never make drugs disappear by making them astronomically more valuable. Regulation is the alternative.

Happy pub day to @michaelluo.bsky.social. STRANGERS IN THE LAND is a sweeping & meticulous account of the history of the Chinese in America, full of suggestive parallels to our present moment, as this terrific @steveinskeep.bsky.social review makes clear: www.nytimes.com/2025/04/29/b...
