As you watch the #Oscars today, I hope you remember the artists who are unable to attend the world's most prestigious awards ceremony for the film industry simply because of who they are, where they were born, or where they are from. I hope you demand better. Art is political.

I urge you to stop what you're doing and watch Alysa Liu's free skate from yesterday. I have never seen anything like this. I understand why sports writers are born now. I have never seen anyone as free from the burdens of this world as this pierced Oakland girl spinning to Donna Summers.

Nope. Wrong question. Also, I’m glad AMC won’t be showing this slop.

Vague, chilling and, sadly, now University of Texas System policy. 🥶🥶🥶
