it could be im just really autistic, linking things and patterns faster than whoever, or entering my psychotic break era, but i was informed on this day in 1972 Bowie became Ziggy Stardust. I was praying to see some bowie imagery in times of mild tension and fear, and everytime the universe delivered. I was waiting for my brunch reservation, then saw a magazine with an image of a photoshoot i reference very often (the diamond dogs one pictured below) Which was shot by terry o neil, the only bowie picture book i own is one with never seen before images from the exact photographer. so these images have been great comfort to me. The later today i was sitting on the bus, i had to pee so so so bad. the bus was playing a 70s 80s 90s radio channel relatucely loud, and i prayed they would play a bowie song to keep me distracted for a couple more minutes.. BAMMM they played 'under pressure' !! What do you guys think?? am i going crazy??

Everyone knows Bowie, but did you really? I didn’t know enough, but over the last couple of months I decided to start listening to the man who inspired many if not all of the modern musical geniuses. The music is beautiful: Hunky Dory Album: incredible, makes me feel seen for my weirdness, and empowered to stand up to the man, while also loving myself more. Lets Dance Album: Fun music to dance to, and the song Criminal World makes me think of my trans brothers & sisters who fight for their rights every day. Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps) Album: first album I dove into after discovering the incredible song “Ashes to Ashes” which was also recently covered by Magdalena Bay (whom I love) on Like a Version. This entire album is not only a major political statement if you really listen, but also reminds me that I am young and not defined by the mistakes I’ve made in the past, I just need to live in the moment and enjoy everything I can. The Rise & Fall of Ziggy Stardust Album: I mean come on… this one is already know for being incredible, but just listen to it again in full. “There’s a Starman waiting in the sky. He’d like to come and meet us, but he thinks he’d blow our minds” - David Bowie “Starman” from “The Rise & Fall of Ziggy Stardust” “They got a message from the action man: ‘I’m happy, hope you’re happy too. I’ve loved all I’ve needed, love. Sordid details following… ‘I’ve never done good things, I’ve never done bad things, I never did anything out of the blue, Whoa’.” - David Bowie “Ashes to Ashes” from “Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)”

Social media serves a smorgasbord of delicious Bowie  snippets. He’s so cool, human, accessible, unreachable, iconic.
