Tuesday Stuff

RIP Oscar-winning child star Patty Duke (not a bad epitaph as far as I'm concerned) – as far as movies go, she’ll probably be remembered the most for The Miracle Worker, and she was excellent also in many other productions, including a TV version of Taylor Caldwell’s Captains And The Kings many moons ago…she was also a mental health advocate…



Update 3/30/16: Important related info is here.

…and Chris Hayes and Dan Savage discuss the push-back against GA's trans-bathroom bill (and NC is quite rightly feeling the heat on this also, as noted here – I’m sure it doesn’t need to be pointed out how utterly stupid these bills are...and I think what Savage said about HRC and Bernie Sanders was a reaction to this; shockingly stupid moment from Susan Sarandon, who I thought otherwise had a brain...)…



…and my response to this is GOOD! Let them all blow each other's brains out (more hereawww, too bad)...



…and maybe Nathan Deal did what he did for crass political reasons as Dan Savage discussed above, but it was still the right thing to do, so here’s a song for the occasion.
