While you were so worried Socialism would take your freedoms, Capitalism stole your pension, took your savings, sent your jobs abroad, robbed you of health care, put you in debt and destroyed the environment, leaving you only your racism, xenophobia, hate, and bitterness.

I have faced fascism before, in this very country. I was one of 120,000 Japanese Americans summarily rounded up and expelled from our homes at gunpoint, all for the crime of looking like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor.

1. People are objecting to my lashing of academics and intellectuals in today's column. I understand (and expected) this. So here’s my reasoning. I chose examples of topics that are endlessly circled by researchers with ever diminishing returns, while huge and existential questions are ignored.🧵

Happy 85th birthday Wendy Carlos, who revolutionised the synth with Bob Moog, made electronic music before Eno & Kraftwerk, & composed scores for Tron, Clockwork Orange and The Shining. A trans icon, Carlos gave few interviews but this BBC one features her beloved cat www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3ca...

"Emilia Pérez" é uma história de transformação. A música permite que os personagens voem alto por ambientes obscuramente iluminados pela fotografia de Paul Guilhaume. Ela traz a mensagem abrangente da história de empoderamento pela autenticidade.
