Listen To The Women



"When you grow up female, danger is everywhere."

~Virginia Roberts Giuffre
Nobody's Girl: A Memoir Of Surviving Abuse And Fighting For Justice

Yesterday, 3 million additional documents of the Epstein Files were released, only about half of the remaining files. And with that, the Department of Justice will no longer release any additional files. The following spreadsheets were initially released, then a short time later pulled from release. The obstruction and deception continues. Warning, the following is more than a little disturbing.

Listen To The Sound Of Silence

 

"When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty."

~Thomas Jefferson




Listen To The Reviews

 


"Here we go again!"

~Melania Trump
Melania 

Yes, Melania, here we go again. Only its all worse this time."

This is not my usual lighthearted movie suggestion. No. This is a review and suggestion by the professional reviewers. Apparently this $75 million film is exactly what it seemed to be, a shallow, thoughtless, self promoting poser of an out of touch first lady. But if you enjoy fashion, that most folks can never afford to purchase, especially in this time, then this movie is for you! 

As for me, I don't like nor respect her. So, it's a hard pass for me!

But here is a trailer for you.

Listen To Jimmy

I'm exhausted, and really, what more could I possibly add?

Ellipsis Movie Of The Week... Dan In Real Life

 

"You know that feeling in your heart? When you heart is just pounding, like it's actually outside your ribs? Exposed but vulnerable and awful, and heartsick, and alive, all at the same time.

~Dan Burns ( Steve Carell )

I seem to be gravitating to movies about different kinds of love. Which is okay, I guess, but it's just that I am such a lucky person to have found all kinds of love with my husband, and that a rare thing. I think about it more as well, because we are living through such dark, desperate times. So bare with me, I am encouraging myself to branch out and enjoy a larger genre than rom-coms. But to be fair, this is a new movie for me, so yea!

As for, Dan In Real Life, I enjoyed that it dealt with the sometimes messiness of relationships. Lovers, Love at first sighters, brothers and sisters, and of course, our parents. Make no mistake, while it might seem like a comedy from the trailers, it's a dramady, but a well balanced one. It's a good watch. A pleasant one. A quiet movie that's needed right now. But I have to confess, I have loved every movie Steve Carell has every done, so I might be a wee bit impartial.

Thoughts And Prayers For The American Gestapo

 




"We cannot violence by blaming it's victims. We are in a culture of victim blaming and victim shaming, where the wounded are questioned more than the more then the one's who wounded them, because responsibility scares a society built on denial."

~Carson Anekeya
Sigh.

Say His Name... Alex Jeffrey Pretti



One Headline... Two Different Days

 I don't have a witty quotes for today. I am tired, brokenhearted and really sad. And I admit I found it surreal that the New York Times had the same headline for, Saturday, and Sunday. Forgive me if this is a less than perfect post. History will remember this time, and will not look kindly on these assholes. Say his name, Alex Jeffrey Pretti. He was an ICU nurse at the V.A. hospital, in Minnesota. He was a son. And he was so much more, including a hero, for trying to save a woman who had been shoved to the ground by ICE agents.

 He was the same age as Renee, Nicole Good... 37.

How many more will have to die, at the hands of the Trump Administration?



The stupidity speaks for itself. Don't let yourself be Gaslighted.


RIP
