Psst…those 1950s manufacturing jobs Trump loves so much? They were good jobs because they were UNION jobs. Oh...and taxes on corporations and the rich were much higher. Trump’s agenda won’t bring back the “Golden Age.” It’ll make the rich richer at everyone else's expense.

"I have a bomb, I want $200,000 and a parachute, and yes, it was Janet Leigh in The Manchurian Candidate (1962). You know her from Psycho and Bye Bye Birdie." - IMDb Cooper

How on Planet Earth has it been 43 years?!? If you take that number in the opposite direction, it was 1939. Pre-WWII. 😱

I’m really only just getting into it but I genuinely love birding as a hobby. The entire goal is to look at the bird. Is there a bird? There is a bird! Look at the bird! If you are very keen you can learn what to call the bird so that you can properly thank it for the joy you feel when you see it. 🪶

Just saw Sinners. Wow! That was a ride. The music is fantastic. The juke joint scene is extraordinary. I’d like to see it again, but in IMAX.

I raised two children who are now successful adults, but I'll be damned if I'm able to maintain a sourdough starter. (It would be helpful if they cried when they needed attention.) #baking
