LINKS TO FEEL SOME JOY
BAY AREA TEEVEEEEE featured my GOOD EGG TOUR and three shows in the Bay Area! NBC WEBSITE VIDEO.
BRO. WHY IS NYC MAYOR MAMDANI SPEAKING CHINESE BETTER THAN YOU? ALSO BENGALI!!! TIKTOK VID. And this was a super funny video of how Mamdani after he posted the Chinese video got all cocky about it. TIKTOK VID. Here’s his full Chinese language video via INSTA VID. Here’s his full BENGALI video discussing the same program via INSTA VID.
I don’t know if the food at this Peruvian Cevicheria is good but the dancing is INCREDIBLE. INSTA VID. Watch them do a shot for shot re-creation of KATSEYE’s latest pop song.
LINKS TO BETTER YOUR LIFE
How TO BUILD COMMUNITY. INSTA POST. Love these tips from The Collectress.
ADVICE FROM CREATIVES: just do it. SUBSTACK POST. This “Popular Opinions: I Asked 28 Creatives One Question” by Kel Rakowski is a great read if you want some inspiration to create!
It doesn’t matter how you grew up, it’s your adult job to heal. A WORD. TIKTOK VID.
LINKS TO SCRATCH YOUR BRAIN
Angie Nixon in Florida just won her primary and she’s a progressive candidate who refuses to take AIPAC MONEY! It’s a huge huge win. INSTA VID. Loved this rundown of how this past week’s elections have been a great pushback to this conservative, billionnaire class regime. Here’s an INSTA VID with more about her platform.
This list of ALL THE FOODS that have been recalled in the U.S. is CHILLING. INSTA VID. I’ve started to garden y’all. You? Let’s grow our own food.
Why did our grief around Hayden Panetierre’s death catch some of us off-guard? Her story is so tragic and so much bigger than just her. TIKTOK VID. And here’s Hayden herself speaking on a pod just a few months before her death, talking about how she has so much more life to live. It’s heartbreaking. She was so mistreated as a child actor in this industry.
This case of a birth surrogate defying the wishes of the parents to not terminate the pregnancy due to life-threatening birth defects has become a TERRIBLE political lightning rod for right-wing “pro-lifers.” INSTA POST. It’s chilling. Radical right-wingers are willing to do anything to take away our reproductive rights.
Gary, Indiana, a predominantly Black and working class area, has been without electricity for OVER a week now and no one is talking about it. INSTA VID. And there are AI Data Centers that have been given TREMENDOUS incentives to drain the power grid there with little payment or consequence. Perfect Union INSTA VID.
