Medicare 4 all.

Why should we pay all that money to insurance companies who deny us coverage and make medical decisions based on company profits? We pay more for less.

It’s true. I had many pre-work naps on the R train.

I used to live on 77th and 5th, by the pizza pahlour? Did not love the commute.

It's increasingly clear that the president lives in a constructed bubble of unreality designed by aides who are manipulating him in order to take control of US policy. Seems like an important story - wish media would cover it.

Took me back to The Silence of the Lambs which started with the same music cue. Loved its context in this movie.

I don't often quote the president, but here goes:

"If there is a shutdown, I think it would be a tremendously negative mark on the president of the United States. He's the one that has to get people together."

Not that anybody should need the visual aid of a meme to explain this, but should someone be in the process of waking and need that extra little push over the cliff, this meme goes to 11. β˜―οΈβš–οΈβœŒοΈ

I found that scene with the critic’s dogs so traumatizing as a kid. I had to stop watching and have never seen the end.

I loved the seven Gables theater in Portland! My parents took me to see King of Hearts there -so boring but I loved the theater and the free cider.

When will reporters support one another and repeat the same question until they get an answer?

The β€œproblem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

It always comes back to Peanuts.

If we survive this fascist treason, we’re going to need serious Nuremberg-like trials. No half-assed Merrick Garland shit. Prominent people need to be clapped in irons.

They don't feel shame, but they care deeply about status.

Wanting to be liked--or at least envied--is their Achilles heel. We can use that against them:it's cheap, non-violent & effective.

Social shunning of elites supporting Pinochet helped bring down the Chilean dictator: it can work here too.

Just picked this up from the library. Surprisingly nuanced with great performances and production design!

Slade House by David Mitchell. Super creepy and epic haunted house story, spanning decades and continents.

Every single Democrat needs to internalize this:

ICE is a politicized operation that our tax dollars are paying for.

If Dem leaders don’t use every single legislative tool in their disposal to rein this in (ie shutting down this govt over funding) they aren’t doing their jobs.

conservatives/republicans going full on fascist with occupying cities with the military is yet another reminder to NEVER TAKE CONSERVATISM SERIOUSLY. THEIR CRITICISMS AREN'T REAL. YOU CAN'T MEET THEM HALF WAY. THEY AREN'T A SERIOUS IDEOLOGY. THEY CAN ONLY BE CRUSHED, NOT DEBATED.

thank you.
