As lucky enough to see the IMAX 4k restoration of Princess Mononoke last night. One of my favorite Ghibli films.
The themes and the quote from the old villager with leprosy are especially poignant in the uncertain and violent times we find ourselves in.

The Trump administration’s disregard for civil rights and civil liberties is on full display.
DHS might think there’s no one else to hold them accountable, but they’re wrong. We’re keeping a close eye on DHS and any agency who tries to violate our rights.

Trump’s Department of Homeland Security is already out of control, arresting US Citizens & violating our civil rights.
Now he fired almost the entire civil rights division of the agency — putting Americans' most important protections even more at risk. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/21/u...

The House just passed a funding bill that would provide ICE with a nearly $10 billion blank check to detain and deport immigrant communities with few guardrails.
Senators have the power to stop this cruel waste of taxpayer dollars. They must use that power.

The cover-up…
USAID officials were ordered to destroy classified documents, raising concerns about compliance with federal law. An internal email sent to remaining bureau leaders at the agency’s Washington headquarters provided guidance on “clearing our classified safes and personnel documents.”

It has never been about logic. It has always been about vibes.
The most dastardly of the people pulling strings know this and convince people (using vibes) that it’s about logic, and so we should ignore the obvious things the vibes are telling us.
