Chicagoan. Cat dad. Antifa just means Anti Fascist.
My dad’s name was Bruce Campbell, and for Christmas one year he proudly gifted himself a copy of, “How to Make Love The Bruce Campbell Way.”
He was very proud of his purchase.

Time for a new year and old classics!
#nowwatching Evil Dead (1981)
What a film. Sam Raimi started as he meant to go on, and like any horror film junkie, this movie has a special place in my heart.
Also staring Bruce Campbell, self proclaimed greatest actor in the world.
Hey, I won't fight that.

Happy New Year from the northwest side of Chicago. May you find peace and happiness in the new year. And may ICE, Customs and Border Patrol, and all of their friends continue to eat butts.

Oh that sounds fun. I’m always looking for *more opportunities to talk to insurance providers.
Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"

Tonight, in Chicago, North Side rapid responders and community members held a vigil. At least ten people were abducted by ICE in Rogers Park alone today. We uplifted the message RESIST ICE in lights. We spoke out, sang together, grieved, and reaffirmed our commitment to defending our neighbors.
