This is what being an ally and a real leader looks like. @govpritzker.illinois.gov is not scared or intimidated by people that are different than him. He sees and respects all of usā€¦as all quality leaders do.

If you like beautifully shot dramatic works of television art you must watch #yourhonor on @netflix.com. A masterful performance by Bryan Cranston. I had not heard much about it so I suspect itā€™s an underrated sleeper. Check it out ASAP šŸ‘€šŸ¤˜ LINK: Your Honor g.co/kgs/MSwbLxZ

I first heard it on The West Wing but itā€™s a quote from Margaret Mead, Cultural Anthropologist. ā€œ"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed individuals can change the world. In fact, it's the only thing that ever has". Rings true now more than ever. Donā€™t give in. Donā€™t comply. REBEL

Conscious consumerism works. Spend your dollar where youā€™re represented, included and welcome. #boycottarget #shopcostco

What a beautiful perspective. The tighter they squeeze the more people will slip through their fingers. šŸ„°

I love this. Learning is a skill and itā€™s something that nobody can ever take away from you. Learn me, ask questions, be curiousā€¦especially about who you are and what your purpose is.

You will often hear me talk about how New York City will always be a strong character in my story! I shared a little about it a few years ago but in light of recent events I thought it could use an update. It's a quick read to help inspire and motivate you to resist. donmamone.kit.com/posts/NYC

As his administration dismantles countless agencies, comities and fires regulators, I sit here wondering what will be the first and most damaging outcomeā€¦an accident or an attackā€¦or both. Itā€™s disheartening to see and frustrating to watch but weā€™re all in this storm together. Stay strong and loud.

They all want people like us to go away because weā€™re inconvenient for them. We stand up for whatā€™s right and we are not willing to back down. We will not go away. We will get louder, more clear and take up massive space. šŸ’ŖšŸ½

I loved this article from @shiralazar.bsky.social about the history and future of YouTube. Iā€™ve been recommitted to rebooting my YouTube channel and this analysis confirmed my focus. Worth the read!!!

What does democracy mean to you? I have a distinct feeling it means different things to different people. To me it means ā€œof the people, by the people, for the peopleā€. I canā€™t help but feel as though thatā€™s why theyā€™re working so hard to dehumanize us. To make it seem as thought itā€™s not for us.

Another company to avoid! Conscious consumerism is such a powerful thing. We will no longer use AirBnB, have removed the app from our phone and deleted our account. Iā€™ve attached a screen shot with instructions on how to delete your account if you want to join us in the consumer resistance! šŸ’ŖšŸ½

I just spoke at a small intimate rally for Defend Democracy. It was the first time I got into what John Lewis would have called ā€œgood troubleā€ (politically speaking) anyway. The element I loved most was how I was able to share my message in a way that hopefully inspired those already showing up šŸ’ŖšŸ½

Iā€™m speaking at a peaceful protest tomorrow. If youā€™re one of the many Americans that feel as though youā€™re under attack tell me about your experience. I want to see you and love you for exactly who you are.

So excited to be a spotlight speaker at this peaceful protest aimed at resisting the existing (not existential) risk to our democracy. Although Iā€™ll be representing the the LGBTQIA2S+ community, I know countless other groups are sad, hurting and scared right now. If your in Dallas come supportā€¦
