Ryan Coogler and Guillermo del Toro really said “look bitch some of us still know how to make a good movie.” It’s also not shocking that both movies are paranormal thrillers. Enough with movies about boring rich white people talking.

white liberal: why must you always talk about race? me: because the entire world is structured around race thanks to the gratuitous, heinous violence of Western Europeans the last 500 years. you should be trying to undo that paradigm not clutching your pearls.

Rest assured that here in Illinois, our LGBTQ+ community can be who they want to be. They are safe here. They are celebrated here. They are welcome here. And they are free to love who they love here. No matter the month, I'll always be an ally in the fight for equality for all.

Bruce Springsteen is 75 years old. Donald Trump is 78. I think we found the reason why Donald is so mad at him. At 78, Trump looks like a sack of spoiled yogurt, and Bruce Springsteen at 75 looks like, well, Bruce Springsteen.

The bipartisan censure of Rep. Al Green, a Black disabled man, is further proof that intersecting ableism and racism is the foundation of our political establishment, and it confirms what more and more people are realizing: these parties are two sides of the same coin.

Anti-vaccination rhetoric is also a policy failure. Healthcare is so expensive people turn to alternative healthcare settings and groups which lead them to conspiracy theories and the alt-right.

Boycott thoughts that nobody asked for, but I’m sharing anyway. The boycott is a start. It’s also a good time to really examine what’s needed for future movements.

Screenshot saying: Final boycott thoughts: we need to let go of the sense of urgency that has us wanting to "stick it to man" right away, and focus on what we can do long term.
That means knowing who's around you and who will need support during boycotts. Not everyone can boycott the same way, and with planning, intention, and execution, there can be support for those folks.
We also need to be wary of people looking to capitalize off of something that is supposed to be anti-capitalism. Ask where your money is going. Ask what it's for. Make sure it's being used to advance a movement, not simply line some pockets.

Freezing out the NIH's funding means freezing out American innovation. Research into curing cancer, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's all delayed. And ultimately it won't just cost us advancements in life-saving research, it will cost us lives.

For too long, pharmacy benefit managers have been the middlemen between Illinoisans and their prescriptions, adding costs without real value. Greater transparency and major industry reform are needed — the Prescription Drug Affordability Act reins in their predatory practices.
