In an attempt to spark empathy, I’ve started sharing movies with my brother—One per month—to gently expose him to diverse perspectives, identities, and experiences.
No idea how this will work.
Join me on this journey, if you like.

Answering one of the age old questions:
"Should you avoid getting anything too close to your scalp?"
Are you supposed to wear a biohaz suit to apply conditioner?

I keep forgetting to catch y'all up.
After Bedknobs and Broomsticks, I sent Sound of Music. This one was kinda our personal family Lore. We viewed ourselves as the Von Trapps as we were a musical family, and both our parents being music teachers, we knew the songs very well.

AOC, @aoc.bsky.social, making the case for free speech alongside universal healthcare is so KEY for the left, because it's time progressives reclaimed the mantle of fighting for free speech from the faux free speech warriors of the right.
AOC: I want to live in an America that guarantees healthcare to every person.
I want to live in an America that has a living wage for every person
I want to live in an America where you have free speech to express yourself and not be afraid of being put on a list or deported.

If you’re a contractor with a segregation policy, say it loud—so non-white dollars don’t fund your business. It won’t go how you think.
And if anyone uncovers businesses doing this, put them on blast.

Russia ended the ceasefire in Ukraine it negotiated with Trump minutes after agreeing to it. Trump is a failure and clown.

Trans rights are human rights.
"Indeed, the cruel irony is that thousands of transgender servicemembers have sacrificed some risking their lives – to ensure for others the very equal protection rights the Military Ban seeks to deny them."

This month's movie is Ever After, the Cinderella story with Drew Barrymore.
This was personal, because I was both the bookworm, and the one pushed to be the hardest working and the maintainer of the house, while both my brothers lived privileged childhoods.
But it's also a story about classism.
