Good morning. Here's my favorite half-hour documentary as a treat. Make a cup of tea and enjoy.
Still wish I’d gotten to do a Jim Steinman appreciation burlesque show.
once you learn that “it’s all coming back to me now” as made famous by celine was almost a meat loaf song, you can’t unhear it

Again, this poor kid is traumatized & actively hiding from the American gestapo after escaping a fascist concentration camp. He was not at the super bowl.
The number of influencers I saw viciously insisting otherwise was revolting, particularly the ones defending the misinfo they were spreading.

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.
“He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.

The truth is especially important for leftists now more than ever. Material conditions & reality are what shape actual politics, not idealism & wishcasting.
As conservatives continue to sink into conspiracy, this contradiction will heighten as will the temptation to practice a politics of delusion.

Another resistance quilt finished this week. The eye is my own design, the letters are a fpp pattern by QuiltByNight, the rounded corners and black binding are meant to resemble the phones we the people are using to document the horrors and disprove the government’s lies about what they are doing.

That's an oversimplification but I'm tired. It's an ethnic cleansing campaign. It's not about immigration given they're just grabbing people who aren't white. (And harassing and killing some white people who are defending their immigrant neighbors.)

I hear from people who are surprised I'm still talking about ICE, they thought they'd withdrawn from MN.
No, they have not. In some respects they've escalated.
Some asked why MN is a target. Are there are there a lot more illegals or criminals here?
No, it's not about that. It's about a grudge.

Multiple friends have caught COVID recently, including some of my more cautious pals. There are a lot of winter germs in crowded places right now, fam. Personally, I never feel that shopping or riding transit unmasked is worth potentially getting sick. You can always renew this practice.

Reading a publication from 1965, which refers to cabaret acts as either "Either a ball of fire, or a stinkeroo!" - and these are now the only terms I'll be using to critique the arts.
