1. Before 2020, I never, ever remember getting sick being portrayed as a good thing.

"Most people will get one or two respiratory infections every year. In some ways, it's a *good thing* when you are a child or healthy adult".

*my emphasis.

No Kings Day is almost here.

The Trump regime believes that if it can overwhelm us with atrocities and threats, we'll surrender our rights without fighting for them.

But the people won’t bow down. We will rise. Join us at a peaceful protest on Saturday: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Rogan on Trump’s cruel mass deportations, racially profiling non-criminals and ripping apart families: “This is crazy. That shows no heart. You’re not gonna get any reasonable people to go along with that. Any kind person would go ‘this can’t be the only way to do this’.”

Annie Hall. Saw it in the theater when it premiered in 1977, I was 20 years old. She spoke to me and to all free spirited young women. Heart is broken.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. 

It wasn’t the feds —  it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.
