Mickey 17! I went to an actual movie theater. What a tremendous mirror of the facist-capitalist-pseudo Christian spectacle we are watching. It was actually very funny. It gives me space to laugh at the lugubrious sycophants surrounding rump and the rump himself.

Waubgeshig Rice's novel follows an Anishinaabe community in the face of apocalyptic crises. Now, as the veneer of civility and the raging cruelty of greed have become devastatingly apparent, this novel is especially important and nuanced. The narrator, Billy Merasty, was terrific.

I would love to see a change in the Dems playbook that doesn't end with the call to action being donating. I fully understand the need to fund organizers and I contribute plenty. But at this moment, organizing needs to be massive and orchestrated, not tv time.

In this time of anti-Mexican and anti-immigrant cruelty, the depths of ignorance become crystal clear. It is, of course, tied the desire to make all people more economically vulnerable. And so I offer Sones de Mexico's brilliance and creativity: www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1R4...
