2/ Trumbo stood firm in his beliefs, and is portrayed accurately by Cranston - as Trumbo could be a cranky SOB, but always a thoughtful husband & father. And an amazing writer. A great film. With a great supporting cast. Diane Lane as his wife. Helen Mirren as the vicious gossip columnist. So good!

If you haven’t seen this 🎥, you really need to do so, ASAP. Cranston nails the part, becoming Trumbo in mind, spirit and looks. It’s also a remarkable story - another dark time in American history. HUAC and the Hollywood blacklist. Not only a very successful writer, Trumbo really walked the walk. 1/

“What will be the likely effect on those who will see this? Will they be revolted? Excited? Will the live-streaming of the execution by firing squad deter people from committing mass murder — or will it encourage them? Or just degrade our sense of being human beings?” FUBAR. Total disgust. FUBAR.

Twenty-seven years ago this week, a 21-year-old college student named Matthew Shepard was found tied to a fence outside Laramie, Wyoming. He died six days later simply because he was gay. More of his story in the Alt-Text:
On October 6, 1998, Matt left a bar with two men who lured him out under false pretenses. They drove him to a remote area, brutally attacked him, robbed him, tied him to a fence, and left him alone in the freezing night.

Eighteen hours later, a cyclist found him - at first thinking he was a scarecrow.

Matt’s parents, Judy and Dennis Shepard, were overseas when they got the call. By the time they reached the hospital in Colorado, Matt was in a coma. He never regained consciousness. They never got to say goodbye.

Dennis once said Matt was almost too tender-hearted - the kind of person who couldn’t even step on a bug. Friends described him as a “light of joy,” someone who never met a stranger. The night he left that bar, he’d been planning an LGBTQ awareness event at his university.

Years later, Judy Shepard shared that she truly believed by now, things would be different - that people would be safe, equal, and accepted. “I am frustrated that we’re not done,” she said. “I am ecstatic that we have come this far. But there’s just so much left to do.”

And she’s right.

Hate crimes still happen. Basic rights are still being denied.

Let’s honor Matthew’s memory not only by remembering his story, but by continuing the work. By refusing to look away. By choosing compassion over hate, and courage over silence.

"Basic goods and services remain unaffordable. Inflation and unemployment are on the rise. Our food is unsafe to eat. Our government lies to us. Our once-staunch allies hate our guts and openly mock us. Masked, trigger-happy federal thugs roam the streets of our cities." The fix: Public executions.

The house in which grew up has been on and off the market for the better part of 10 years now. Up the street from where I live now. The owners have changed it too much for it to hold any sentimental value for me, so have zero interest, even if I could afford it. The market here is pretty fluid.
