I used to cut out Kathy & Garfield & reading AJC is how I discovered the Boondocks comic strip when I was younger.
did anyone else have a weird phase as a child where they got extremely into sunday newspaper comics . i think i had every far side book and damn near every calvin and hobbes book.

VH1 forced me to love tf out of this song. I’m talmbout I went crazy over it lol.
35 years ago today, Deee-Lite released “Groove Is in the Heart,” a kaleidoscopic dance-floor explosion blending Herbie Hancock samples, Bootsy Collins funk, and a Q-Tip verse. With its trippy video and infectious beat, it became an instant club classic.

Fulton & Nostrand by Jacob Lawrence in 1958. I get lost in it every single time. There are so many stories depicted in this painting. My favorite piece in the @ClevelandArt 💜💜💜

I survived off of ‘context clues’ hell til this very day! Sometimes it ain’t nobody around to ask so you have to look for clues. Shoutout to Carmen Sandiego & Ghost Writer too. That’s why the kids today are just dumb af & need everything spelled out.
My MIL is a teacher and she told me they aren’t allowed to teach kids the concept of ‘context clues’ anymore. Something about that is so sinister 😭 bc why they don’t want these kids putting 2 and 2 together?.
