Big Kid (50+!) ... Movies (especially Horror), Books, Records, Legos, Clouds, and Hiking get me excited. 🏳️‍🌈 (Trans Rights are Human Rights! 🏳️‍⚧️)

Róisín Murphy, transphobe and anti-cancel culture/free speech warrior, blocked me on Facebook for pointing out that she hasn't been canceled just because her queer fans have abandoned her over her vitriolic anti-trans views. The irony!

And, here's Róisín Murphy giving an absolutely unhinged response to a guy telling her that trans people are just trying to live their lives. It kills me that an artist I admired so much, and who seemed open and accepting, has shown what a nasty, awful person she really is.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

We're at the "You need to watch the execution video for yourself because the President is lying about what happened in the execution video and you won't know how badly he's lying unless you see the execution for yourself" stage in the Twilight of the American Empire

35 years ago in November 1990, PSB released “Being boring” as the 2nd single from their 4th studio album, “Behaviour”. The song was inspired by a party invitation from Neil’s Newcastle days which quoted Zelda Fitzgerald’s line “She was never bored, mainly because she was never boring”. #PetShopBoys

Madonna dropped her pop culture bombshell single, "Justify My Love," 35 years ago today! Dark and sensual, it was paired with an infamously banned music video that pushed BDSM imagery into the mainstream and blurred gender roles.

How soul-crushing it is to see my favoritest female singer/artist spout anti-trans nonsense and then quadruple down on it ... especially after using queer and trans culture as inspiration for her music/art.

You cannot trust information coming from Kash Patel's FBI. You cannot trust information coming from ICE. You cannot trust information coming the Trump administration. You cannot trust information coming from Republicans.
