….meanwhile, while cities like San Francisco and Palm Springs celebrate diversity and compassion, our national government is asking for citizens to turn people in. This is an actual post “tweeted” out today by Secretary Kristi Noem’s Department of Homeland Security.

Just finished watching Kevin Rolston’s final performance in Deal With The Dragon — my second time: Extraordinary. Without exaggeration and to tip into cliche it was a truly memorable tour-de-force. Bravo Kevin for an intense, funny, frank and fierce 60 minutes.

Heaven weeps; Putin murders.
Presidential shame.

Rewatching “The Two Popes” on Netflix: seemed appropriate. I haven’t seen it since I saw it in the big screen at Opera Plaza in San Francisco. I had forgotten how good it is, how prescient and how important ABBA is to the plot. 🙂
