I regret to inform you that it's one of his favorite songs, that many folks in his base use it specifically to rally under the MAGA banner, and that as far as they're concerned, "this is the music of a people who will not be slaves again" is railing against the power of Democrats and Woke/PC/DEI.

In light of everything happening, I wrote about how the KKK in the 1920s felt unstoppable, about the people that fought against them anyway, and about how fascism always fails. dansinker.com/posts/202…

I love Kieran Culkin, and he's great in A REAL PAIN. But it's not a supporting performance, and measuring true supporting performances against his is unjust. (Yes, I just saw ANORA—Mikey Madison turns out to be great for those keeping score, btw!—and Yura Borisov's performance is a stunner.)

Let's preserve the National Park Service's exceptional collection of essays, "LGBTQ America: A Theme Study of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer History." It's a stunning, far-reaching, deeply researched, publicly funded record of queer history in the U.S. Read it while you can.

Friendly reminder that "Stonewall was fought by trans women of color" is a 21st-century simplification, and probably a myth. 1/3

This is where you go to tell the National Park Service to restore the word "transgender" in its entry on the Stonewall monument. (Scroll down.)

The National Parks Service erased transgender people from their website honoring Stonewall. You can leave a comment on the website. Flood this comment box www.nps.gov/ston/index.htm

Oh my god. They removed "transgender" from the page about Trans woman Sylvia Rivera's page at the National Park service. "Sylvia Rivera began fighting for gay and _____ rights" WOW.

God I hate that celebrity anti-Kanye AI thing that's going around. HATE. IT. Stealing people's faces to have them advertise the idea you want them to advertise is flat-out trash.

I'm sorry, but "they took over the whole federal payments system, fired the career staff, and won't let anybody see what they're doing" is not a situation in which you wait for more information. It's a situation in which you assume the worst. There's no explanation for it other than rampant crimes.
