An amazing cover. Zentreya and Ironmouse are huge influences on me. This hit me hard, as I've been in this place for the past 20+ years. It means so much to feel seen.

Please reach out to someone if you need to. You are not alone. You matter.

I remember when he saluted North Korean military officers, too.

You Can’t Even Watch A Movie Anymore Without Seeing Some Theme Explored I’ve loved movies ever since I was a little kid. Just stepping into that dark theater, with the smell of fresh popcorn, was like being transported to a whole other world. It used to be so magical. But now I’m thinking about boycotting movies altogether. Why? Because I can’t seem to watch one anymore without […]

A tweet by Sarah Longwell (@SarahLongwell25 ) reads: "He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. Don’t you see what’s happening here?"

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.
