3 things I learned from #TheWildRobot:

1. You can learn to understand anyone.
2. Knowing how to push your mom’s buttons can be used to your advantage.
3. Sometimes we must become more than we were programmed to be 🥺🥺🥺

CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Welles!
Guess I'll be watching more #foreignmovies as an act of rebellion against this #fascistregime. It's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.

But in all seriousness, better #movies, lower ticket prices, and affordable #childcare (eg, via government subsidies) would get me out to theaters more than #tariffs.
The #DOGE operatives falsifying government records really should be mentioned by name: #JonKoval and #PaytonRehling.

Thanks to the NYTimes for providing headshots in a past article. #deportMusk #resistfascism
So whatcha been #cooking so far this #spring? Our thing this weekend was picking #flowers from the #magnoliatree out back, freezing the petals (which have a #ginger-y flavor), and then cooking them with sugar on the stove to make a ginger #syrup. What can you add the syrup to? Pretty much anything.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism.

If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone.

Americans of conscience must stand against this now.
In case you missed the news, Sinema Club at #HouseofScorpio is moving to Sundays, starting with #ANORA (2024), directed by #SeanBaker, which we'll be screening on the evening of April 27.

But in the meantime, can anyone correctly guess the other Sean Baker #movie in this screencap? #movies
Maybe this is one of the few options ordinary citizens have: to boycott American companies that do business in #ElSalvador as well as any #imports from that country. #illegaldeportation
This administration has apparently #deported another 10 persons to #ElSalvador for imprisonment. Similar to #KilmarAbregoGarcia, it's been claimed they are part of terrorist gangs without any evidence. The deported persons also have no legal recourse to challenge the claims of gang membership.
If you happen to live in their districts, feel free to let them know how you feel about their stealing #votingrights from you or possibly someone you know. Then call your senator to kill the #SAVEAct!
Four #HouseDemocrats voted in favor of the #SAVEAct, which aims to deny the vote to millions under the guise of #voterfraud, which has never been an actual problem.

The 4 traitors are: #JaredGolden of #Maine, #MarieGluesenkampPerez of #Washington, #HenryCuellar of #Texas, and #EdCase of #Hawaii.

I stand corrected: MILLIONS protested! #handsoff
Hundreds of thousands marched in the #HandsOffOurDemocracy protest today. There was no violence. The Capitol was not attacked, looted, and vandalized. Security was not breached and police officers were not violently attacked.

THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE.

A Truly Tremendous sign by former Federal employee Lisa Gibbon, #HandsOff2025

My favorite sign yesterday, made by one of the few UGA students present at the protest. #HandsOff

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.
If any of the perpetrators were #NYU students, I hope the university boots them out as well as notes this on their official academic transcripts.

Let them finish their degrees at a school in one of the racist states instead. #NYUvandalism
While you're streaming #CoryBooker's ongoing (18 hours and counting!) #Senate speech or watching on C-SPAN, may I suggest simultaneously viewing the great #documentary #STREETFIGHT (2005), centered on Booker's mayoral campaign in Newark at the start of his political career. #filibuster
Happy Trans Day of Visibility. I look forward to a time when we're erasing all signs of this current administration (which WILL happen), b/c turnabout is fair play.

#TransDayOfVisibility
Choose 20 films that have stayed with you or influenced you. One film per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just posters. 20/20

No matter how the Trump administration tries to word it, it’s clear that Mahmoud Khalil’s detention is a retaliatory, unconstitutional attack on his protected First Amendment activity.

Ideas are not illegal. #FreeMahmoudKhalil
