Just a tired dad who really wants the Padres to win the World Series before I'm gone.

All the reviews coming in for Wicked: For Good, seeing them be mostly middling at best, reminds me that most people are not musical theatre people. Musical theatre people know that the second act of a musical is rarely as good as the first.

How come primary school children are encouraged to go to school in costumes, but secondary school children aren’t? Anybody who thinks that 11 (or 13, or 35) is “time to grow up”, is profoundly wrong. happy Halloween!

For an unlimited time, I’m offering to cover the ticket for one (1) free ticket into the sun for anybody who thinks autism needs to be “cured”

I think the most annoying part of this is that if you’re asking people to vote for constituents who aren’t fighting for their livelihood- hell, their HUMANITY, then you’re literally just asking people to vote to keep you in your position of power for your own self interest.

Political violence is bad. It usually begets more political violence. Celebrating political violence is bad. It usually encourages more political violence, against various targets. Campus shootings are bad. They make everyone on campus less safe. It's bad that what I wrote here is controversial.

Abe Lincoln's mother died b/c their cow ate some poisonous weeds. Poison got in the milk, she drank it, and died. "Milksick," it was called. Like... they had a word for it. It was a thing. His mother left Lincoln alone in the Indiana winter in charge of his sister to go find a new wife back in KY.

When people say "We used to drink raw milk from our own cow and it was fine," That's... usually not the case! In families w their own cow, the mom usually boiled it before using. We just forgot bc that's a boring chore that mom did. And who pays attention to that? youtu.be/vKDPast9WFk

I liked the Superman movie because Superman is a dork. And nice. I think his earnestness really appeals to me. Idk. I grew up believing that stuff, I guess. Don't lie. Don't steal. Do not hurt people. Simple stuff. I know I'm mixing media, but god damnit, babies, you got to be kind.

Don't just say it's unconstitutional, remind people that the constitution is full of very good ideas designed to prevent authoritarianism, and most people who want to ignore it want that specifically because they are authoritarian.

Three Asian American actors won Tony Awards last night, while a musical featuring Asian Americans leads (and co-created by an Asian composer) won Best Musical. We've come a long way from the assumption that Asian works don't sell tickets, from yellow face, and from objectification

NEWS: The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) analysis of various Republican plans for Medicaid spending reveals that, under every scenario laid out by the GOP, millions would lose insurance. The GOP's plans would have a disproportionate impact on low-income and elderly populations.

The ruling class wants the working class to argue over which party is better for the people. The reality? Working class people have been left behind by both parties. We don’t have to accept high costs and low wages. We can have a better America.

After 63 years of no black players in MLB, seven of the first ten Black baseball players were elected to the Hall of Fame (the League average is 1.5%). Evidence that serious talent was long overlooked — invisible in plain sight — requiring special effort of those in charge to overcome bias.

It's been 30 years of A Goofy Movie, and 31 years since we briefly lived in Paris while my dad worked on it! Truly one of the coolest things as a kid, to hang out at the studio or watch pencil tests over dinner.♥️ Also eternally grateful to mom for secreting away a bunch of original model sheets:

The attack on DEI shows why liberals should stop arguing about "strategic" use of language forever. DEI stands for three uncontroversial virtues that most every American accepts, and the right still turned it into a vile slur. It doesn't matter what you say - they will poison it because YOU said it.
