they're ruling blue states, cities and districts like they're conquered territory. occupying armies with no responsibilities ruling over a conquered people with no rights. intolerable.

Wow, you really believe that our Emperor is some kind of evil wizard? What, you think he’s cackling while casting spells and curses over a cauldron wearing black robes at the top of a tower somewhere? Talk about Palpatine Derangement Syndrome…

“Tony Todd makes his final appearance here. The result is not just a worthy sendoff for the character and the man who played him, but one of the best scenes ever performed by an actor who knew he was dying and wanted to make his last performance one for the ages.” www.rogerebert.com/reviews/fina...

I’ll never get over how, in an era when women’s rights and status are being attacked and eroded in law and culture alike, we were incessantly told that it was boys and men whose suffering we needed to attend to.

We need to understand this as a victory against trans hate and discrimination — it’s what otherwise moderate Mayor Jean Stothert made the entire end of her campaign about. Regular Americans don’t react to or receive the call to trans panic. Enough. We are speaking to the future.
