I’ve put off watching the movie version of Wicked just because, well, Blockbuster. But I must say, it is spectacular! Love the inclusion of original Broadway cast members Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth. Fabulous set design!

I appreciate inventive, creative, atmospheric filmmaking, and I’m glad I watched Nickel Boys, but this story deserves more flesh on the bones (almost literally). I will read the book and look for a documentary. An important story.

From Nigga to Beloved. Transformative. My favorite film and Colman Domingo gives another flawless performance. Obviously a passion project for him.

Somewhat predictable, but well played. Unexpectedly comical. The undertones of youth’s disrespect for adults and authority ring true.

YOU NEED TO WATCH THIS: CDC disease detectors—fired.
The Trump administration is using a hatchet, not a scalpel, to slash jobs during a bird flu and measles outbreak.
At this rate, we’ll be relying on word of mouth for disease outbreaks like it’s the 1700s.

Incredible performance by Adrian Brody. Wonderful cinematography. Storyline? meh Plot holes, gratuitous scenes that do not move the story along, no character development or poor acting or both for the majority of the roles.

No. I am not a conspiracy theorist-But this is PROFOUNDLY CONCERNING.
We all know children repeat what they hear-And you’ll agree, Leon’s expression is revealing.
I hope that the appropriate people have  thoroughly investigated election integrity.
Because they are worthy of our darkest fears.

This video has been reposted multiple times on Reddit and continues to get taken down for whatever reason. I’m a skeptic when it comes to claiming election rigging, but this is alarming.

This is just sheer brazen criminality by DOJ. Adams gets federal corruption charges dropped not because there isn’t overwhelming evidence, but because he agrees to help Homan round up migrants. And Homan says the charges will be refiled if Adams doesn’t “come through.”

Not only is RFK Jr. a longtime anti-vaxxer, he has made a highly profitable career of endangering the lives of millions in his dangerous crusade against vaccinations.

CDC Data Are Disappearing
The agency has already removed scientific data from public view. More could follow.

Wow. Caroline Kennedy breaks her silence on RFK Jr in a message to Senators: “We grew up together. It’s no surprise that he keeps birds of prey as pets because Bobby himself is a predator. He enjoyed showing off by putting baby chickens & mice in a blender to feed to his hawks.”
