Father, loving son, recently divorced (from the belief in American exceptionalism). Filmmaker, screenwriter. A blue dot in a (blood) red country. A man of voracious appetites (mainly food). Respectful of elders.
I went over 60 years without ever seeing the northern lights, and now in the last 13 months I’ve seen them twice—in Illinois of all places?! Signs and wonders.

Was it a fever dream or was there a really Hollywood film about criminal palookas in 1930s era Mississippi filled with ol’ timey music and based on Homer’s Odyssey? Amazing.

Ukraine is a democracy fighting for their very existence. What happened in the Oval Office will be a shame and a stink that will never go away.
Trump and Vance — elected by MAGA voters, and supported by spineless Republican members of Congress — are both shamelessly subservient to their Kremlin master.

Will always stand with Ukraine. And please keep your mineral rights.
I am an American citizen
I stand with Ukraine

I oppose President Trump siding with Putin, the aggressor

Ukraine need not give anything to Russia and Putin

Putin and Russia can leave Ukraine in peace, and then the war will be over

America
Where do you stand?

On this 1st day of #BlackHistoryMonth, let’s honor & remember all Black service members, from the Harlem Hellfighters of WWI, to the Tuskegee Airmen & the "6888th women" of WWII, & all those who fought and served before and after them.

This from the top of every building and so, so, so much louder.

And yes democrat mother flakers, Leigh’s anger here times 1000.

Fucking step up. Now. And if you’re tired, get out of the way.

I was today years old when I learned of this horrific event in American history. It was not taught to me in school. Now, it joins other terrible stories like those in Rosewood and Tulsa to upend any notions I had of a just America. If you haven’t seen this film, watch it. #AmericanCoup

I’ve seen Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker a few times, but none as beautiful as the performance by the Joffrey Ballet. And setting it at the 1893 Chicago’s World Fair made the history buff in me even more delighted. Photos by Cheryl Mann. #joffreyballet #Tchaikovsky

I am dumbfounded. For the thousandth time.
As you read the House Ethics report about Gaetz, always keep in mind that Donald Trump believed that Gaetz was the most qualified person in America to be the chief law enforcement official in the United States.

Guess we’re not finding out who the pipe bomber was. We’ll drop that in the file folder with the other stuff.
