I have clothes that are older than ICE. Anyone who says ICE can't be abolished lacks the leadership the US desperately needs right now.

Delroy Lindo is on a long list of actors long overdue for an Oscar nomination. He might finally break that ceiling with his role in Sinners. We caught up to talk about Ryan Coogler's "brilliant" epic, and, as always, he has some keen observations to share

Oh no. This is not good at all.
USPS quietly changed its postmark rules — mail is no longer dated when you drop it off. The “official” date is when it hits automated sorting — sometimes days later
Which could have major implications for mail in voting — it’s a clever way to disenfranchise voters that’s going largely overlooked

Heated Rivalry. The show is great, the fans are unhinged (I am fans) and the actors are having the time of their lives. We really needed this.

I do love that a year that began with Trump asking Canada if they wanted to be the fifty-first state ends with their Canadian cable gay hockey romance show pulling us along the floor like Ilya’s chair and we don’t want it to end—and it got tax-payer arts funding to boot.

I have a scooter. I can walk. I can't, however, walk through 80 miles of airport. I can walk onto an airplane or through hallways. I can't walk the .5 mile to the convention center.

Steve isn’t here anymore, but he always posted this picture on Hanukkah so I thought we could carry on his tradition and remember him.
Happy Hanukkah to our friends who celebrate. Rachel Posner, a rabbi’s wife in Kiel, Germany, took this photograph in 1931 -- a potent reminder that fascism must be fought in every generation, even if it's wrapped in an American flag and a red hat.
