If many faultes in this book you fynde,
Yet think not the correctors blynde;
If Argos heere hymselfe had beene
He should perchance not all have seene.

@crockett.house.gov Any comment on the Federal court decision on the Texas redistricting effort?
There is a similar case filed in California about their redistricting vote a few weeks ago.
No results on that one yet, but guaranteed both are going to land at the US Supreme Court.

In the US Congress, a #DischargePetition takes over half the members. 218 signatures.
It was 217 for four months, until Adelita Grijalva was sworn in last week. When the vote came this week, 427 voted in favor, 1 opposed.

WHERE DID THE 209 Yes votes come from??

Did they spend four months sleeping?

I cannot believe POPCORN DISABILITIES is finally here! Last year was tough, putting in every ounce of knowledge (and energy) I've accrued reporting on disability in the movies into one book. If you haven't preordered a copy please do so.

I get that this would be horrible in real life, but I have to lol at some of these. Just thinking of that little boy carried off by a gull like an extra large French fry.

11 days until POPCORN DISABILITIES is on shelves!! Most disability in film books are academic surveys. This tries to bring in a little levity alongside the stone truth about the stereotypes and tropes we’re still fighting to get rid of. Preorder your copy now.

So a film made at end of the war, as soldiers and sailors were going to return to spouses back home, they made a movie where wayward spouses flirted with some ranging ideas but eventually decided to return to the dowdy spouses they left behind for the public good? Amazing!
