@stueytheround That's the second time you've been overly kind to a joke, did something happen that I missed with you too? Am I spending way too much time with my art supplies? I'd apologize for that, except that I'm likely to do it again.

@tippitiwichet 🤣 Ah don't mind me. I'm just not reading the room! 🤣

@tippitiwichet Interesting that nobody really felt they relate to James Brown the most and only a few picked Prince.

@stueytheround @tippitiwichet

Possibly because Brown has a difficult personal history in which he was abusive to women, including being a violent partner to his wife. His music is a fond part of another era in my life, but I'm glad folks don't identify with him personally!

@MLClark
I chose him in part *because* of those issues.

@stueytheround @tippitiwichet

Then either we're in the clear with abusers here, or any abusers here aren't going to admit to their abusive natures, even in an anonymous poll! 🎉 I choose to lean toward the former.

@MLClark @stueytheround @tippitiwichet I have real trouble separating the art from the artist. The acid taste...

@MLClark I think you're right 💪🏼 @tippitiwichet
