Finally watched Monkey Man, Dev Patel's Indian action movie. It's excellent. Well paced. Beautifully shot. Great fights. The violence is more intense and bloody than I prefer, but it suits the intensity of the story.

But this isn't a mindless action movie. It deals with the corrupt police and fascist government of India. It includes a community of hijras (traditional trans women). It's political messages nearly got it buried.

Occupy Democrats raised over $1.3 million during the 2022 midterm election cycle, but only spent roughly $120,590 on campaign ads for candidates whilst another $250,000 had been given to Blue Deal LLC, a consulting firm owned by Omar and Raphael Rivero. According to an earlier tweet that was deleted, Omar Rivero defended the payment to Blue Deal LLC, stating “If you understood the time and effort that goes into making viral memes—and the impact that they have—you might respect our work more.”

It was only simpler when we were younger. The older generation had the burden. Changing of the guards. It's ok friend. We're in it together even when we feel alone sometimes.

Remember that one woman who was a proud Trump supporter and then he got elected and deported her husband?

Or when Caitlyn Jenner was stumping for Trump because he was going to be so great for the LGBTQ community and then once he was elected he rolled back anti-discrimination laws and banned trans people from the military?

These idiotic "Gays for Trump" and "Muslims for Trump" and "Latinos for Trump" are deluded if they think they're safe once he has their vote.
