  • I started the thread because I thought the speech, the discourse, was pretty interesting. Specially everything about the collectivity, the 'we, the people' reiteration. I'm not super well versed in american politics, but I'm having a hard time think…

  • i got this in a holiday swap, it's on heavy rotation now: i also got this recently, it's a killer:
  • Shamelessly bumping this one as I think it could be a pretty nice thread if more people contribute.
  • growing up here i wasn't really exposed to soul music before i got actively interested in it. that being said, my mum lived in chicago from 1971 to 1986, so she had a decent grasp of it. i remember she had Aretha's Greatest Hits (the first Atlantic …
