Skating and skate museum.

It’s Ziggy’s world.

Signed Guitar guestbook from the wedding.

Ziggy again.

Boards! Some of the skate decks that adorn our walls. And a fun shot of an old school set up.

Turned 40 today, that's pretty cool.

"How MAGA Mainstreamed Fascism Through The Manosphere"

MAGA radicalized and influenced an entire generation of young men by weaponizing culture to Trojan Horse their authoritarian politics. This is how we fight back.

Twenty Lessons, read by John Lithgow Key selections from On Tyranny, for viewing and sharing

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.

I hope everyone realizes that scrubbing historical references from web sites is no different than burning books

Like lighting in a bottle, an idea came to me yesterday and I look forward to working it out to another feature length screenplay. Have one additional story in the wings as well. Should have a broader portfolio developed by the start of next year.

I hope people realize that Trump is trying to make it illegal to criticize his regime.

They are trying to give themselves the ability to spy on, target, and arrest anyone who criticizes them. They want to end freedom of speech in America.

Let’s be clear about what they’re doing.

The Trump administration helped bring back the Tate brothers (charged with rape and sexual trafficking), hosted Conor MacGregor (multiple allegations of sexual assault), and now invited Dom Lucre (horrific CSAM stuff) to the White House.

These are the people they're celebrating and defending.

1st COLLECTIVE ACTION ECONOMIC BLACKOUT - 24 Hours Friday, FEBRUARY 28, 12 AM - 11:59 PM *families *friends *acquaintances TURN OFF the ECONOMY Show who really holds the power = US. WHAT YOU CAN DO: *Buy ONLY essentials/absolute necessities (Food, Medicine, Emergency Supplies). But the goal is - buy NOTHING. *If you must spend, ONLY support small, local businesses. SPREAD this MESSAGE: email friends everywhere, post on social media, share, document. WHY? Corporations, banks only care about their sacred bottom line. YOU CAN Disrupt the economy for just ONE day to send a powerful message.

NO Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy. *Nowhere! NO Fast Food, Gas, Major Retailers. NO Credit or Debit Cards for non-essential spending. We can do this TOGETHER!

This looks like a good idea. It turns out it wasn't initiated by HCR, so I've deleted her name from the image. I guess whoever thought it up is shy. I plan to do this, even though I can't spend any money anyway until I feel that my Social Security is safe.

Next up for reading. #booksky

Sorry we didn’t make it to the reception. Aiming to come down before it’s over. Love you brother

The Right is focused on education—banning books & history, & defunding schools.

The Left hasn’t been as focused on education, but should because:
1) Students deserve to learn the truth & with it they can change the world
2) Educators are the most unionized workplace & can be a force for justice

This is absolutely needed. Could be used to help educate on class consciousness, so people know more about “big government”

The top health care companies in America spent 95% of their profits to make their CEOs & stockholders obscenely rich.

How many Americans would be alive today if those companies spent $2.6 trillion on disease prevention and primary care, instead of stock buybacks and dividends?

If a sitting President believes he is above the law, and ramps up systemic violence against the most vulnerable through executive orders, and no one will do anything to stop him, and the courts are powerless, who will enforce? Where is the accountability and seperation of powers?

How ignoring court orders would make Trump a king Elon Musk, JD Vance, and Christian nationalist figures are pushing a fresh constitutional crisis.

“If the President really did this… I just don’t see how that’s not a dictatorship.”

Trump’s Goal of Burying History Won’t Work If Teachers Refuse to Stop Teaching Trump wants education to become indoctrination, and the Democratic Party isn’t fighting back. But we can.

“We must build robust, independent, social movements and fight to teach the truth — because no executive order, no political intimidation, and no forced ignorance can erase history, so long as we refuse to stop teaching it.”

Judge Rules Trump Officials Are Defying Order to Reverse Funding Freeze Some Trump officials have said they may ignore future court rulings, which could result in a constitutional crisis.

Elon Musk and Vice President J.D. Vance wrongly said that it is “illegal” for judges to impose limits on executive branch officials.
