Earth Day is about our lives, health, and future. Clean air, safe water, public health, and a livable planet are not luxuries. We must choose leaders who fight for people over polluters, science over greed, and future generations over corporate profit. 🌎💙 #EarthDay #LuciaForCongress #PA01

🥳 Yes Repeat No—the rad weird conceptual art film I produced about🇵🇸& 🇮🇱during the pandemic—will be released to streaming platforms tomorrow, 11/11! I hope you’ll check it out & tell everyone you know & let me know what you think! www.freestyledigitalmedia.tv/film/yes-rep... still can't believe it!

Variety article with headline: Freestyle Digital Media Acquires North American Rights to “Yes Repeat No.” (A drama exploring Israeli-Palestinian identity). The film releases on November 11 on streaming & VOD platforms. Pressy Deal Mess Ninetes Noth Areas Hols to Tos Heseal No 9921/293177M "Yes Repeat No" follows the story of three actors who are auditioning to play Juliano Mer-Khamis, a Palestinian-Jewish actor and activist who was assassinated in 2011 on the steps of the theater he founded in Jenin. Born to an anti-Zionist Jewish mother and a Palestinian Christian Communist father, Mer-Khamis became an internationally acclaimed actor who appeared in films including "The Little Drummer Girl" and "Miral," and later began a career as a director, theater founder and a political activist. "Yes Repeat No" stars Salome Azizi ("The Director"), Mousa Kraish ("Arab Juliano"). Adam Meir ("Public Juliano"), and Karim Saleh ("Israeli Juliano"). "Because we made this film before October 7th, we could examine our collective, fraught history with nuance and compassion, without clinging to 'sides. We want to build bridges rather than fan flames, and to challenge our viewers' understanding of the conflict," said filmmaker Michael Dahan. "By weaving direct quotes from Palestinian, Israeli, Arab and American leaders throughout the dialogue the film reveals how the meaning of words spoken by political figures such as Arafat, Netanyahu, and others have shifted over time. In a time of conflict, 'Yes Repeat No' insists on imagining a better future and encourages its audience to feel more understood and less alone." The film is written and directed by Dahan, who also serves as the film's producer alongside N. Braxton Pope and Sarah Szalavitz. Watch the trailer for "Yes Repeat No" below. * Yes Repost, Nol Official Trailer (2025) REPEAT

I had three surgeries between April 7 and May 30. On Sunday eve, May 11, the surgical wound on my upper back opened up and was bleeding profusely. I went to the ER. Aetna denied my claim and denied my appeal. I am stuck with the massive bill. As we all know, our healthcare system is so damaged.

If less than 2% of mass shootings are by trans people, but nearly all the rest are by cis white men…remind me again why we’re stripping rights from trans folxs instead of talking about gun reform and toxic masculinity?

Daniel Ek, the CEO of Spotify, has sold millions upon millions of dollars in shares of his own company (same with his co-founder). At the same time, he’s collabing with Rogan, Musk, and Trump And telling artists to go f*ck themselves.

Headline from November 15, 2024: Daniel Ek just cashed out $35.8 million in Spotify shares. But that’s nothing compared to his co-founder… who just cashed out $383.8 million

“But redistricting is normal…” Texas has mostly stuck to once-a-decade redistricting after each census: 1901, 1909, 1933, 1957, 1963/66, 1971, 1981, 1991, 2011/12, 2021. 1930 & 1950 censuses? Delays. Court intervention. Mid-decade redraws? Just 2: 2003 & now 2025. Both racist. #texas
