If you’re in a creative field and you don’t lift up the work of your peers, you can’t expect people to care about your stuff
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

And then this shit just came out.
When you’re making over $700k a year, gaining $12k is nothing. It’s a nice vacation, redoing the garage, giving a niece/nephew a car.
When you’re making $23k a year, losing $1600 is “are we paying for food or for the house or for medical bills” territory.

Budzinski: Families making over $700,000 a year will see a boost of $12,000 almost entirely from tax cuts. Shockingly, households making $23,000 a year or less are set to lose about $1600 a year, mostly due to deep cuts to Medicaid and food assistance

Harvey Fierstein has used art to uplift, to educate, to protest, to challenge, to speak up and speak out. This is the power and burden of art. It's why those who seek to control and subjugate attempt to erase it. There is courage in creation that those who seek to limit it will never understand.

Target’s stock plummeted by ~ $27.27 per share by the end of February, erasing about $12.4 billion in market value.
The drop came on Feb. 28, the designated economic blackout day, and coincided with mounting backlash over the retailer’s decision to abandon its DEI commitments.
