You know you only get paid like $700 to do the halftime show. I don't think the NFL is prepared for whatever Bad Bunny has to say to the American people. Anyway, I hope he does the entire show in Spanish.

As always, today is a good day to support artists, writers, creators. If you have the means, maybe consider signing up for a Patreon. Buy a book, a game, a painting. Commission a new piece. Tell a creator what they mean to you. Signal boost their work.

“It’s yet another way this regime practices eugenics. By refusing disabled people the accommodations they need, they’re targeting them for elimination. People die in ICE custody every year, but we often don’t hear about them. Their stories go untold, their pleas unheard and the eugenics unopposed”

I don't think people should get to self-attest that they aren't racist. That's really an assessment to be made by the people who have to experience you.

Yesterday, history happened at the UN: For the first time hundreds of orgs signed a global pledge declaring that healthy indoor air is a human right. Healthy indoor air is a key tool for preventing pandemics, building climate resilience, and increasing health equity. We need it everywhere!

It sucks the way the humanities are being eroded & labeled unimportant. For every rant against a “new identity,” there is an ancient poem or painting or song or or or that tells us there is nothing new under the sun

Ernest vs Pope, obviously

If it's actually important they'll leave a message. Why would you assume people are freely available 24/7? Why assume you only get one chance or it's never? It's so important that I only called once and didn't leave a message?

Heads up, the Burbank Progressives (who initiated today's protest at Disney) will be present again tomorrow at 12 PM at Disney in Burbank. I'll be there and I’ve spoken to other WGA and SAG members who will join us as well. Please spread the word! See y'all tomorrow! #JimmyKimmel #FreedomOfSpeech

Had some stock in Disney and went ahead and divested this morning. It wasn't much but I can't support this act of censorship and cowardice.
