In #ItEndsWithUs why in the last scenes is Lily asking Ryle "IF one day you have a daughter..." while Ryle is HOLDING HIS DAUGHTER?? Whose Director's cut is this? It makes no sense. (???)

When I started talking about Oligarchy, many people didn't understand what I meant.
Well, that's changed.
When the 3 wealthiest men in America sit behind Trump at his inauguration, everyone understands that the billionaire class now controls our government.
We must fight back.

Through struggle and discipline, persistence and faith, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. helped move this country forward. As we honor his legacy today, let’s remember the lesson he taught us: that even in the face of impossible odds, people who love this country can help change it. In honor of #MLKDay, I hope you’ll do what you can in your community to create a better future for us all.
Since battling aggressive Stage 3 Ovarian Cancer for over 2 yrs & grieving the loss of my 30 yr old son (natural causes) for 1 yr, I've been advised to write. I couldn't. I am now working on a #kidsbook & a #poetrybook . Finally! Writing is healing for me.
It has saved my life for both physical & mental reasons. "You gotta get on the groove if you want your body to move. Get your back up off the wall!" Move it or lose it & dance like no one is watching (who cares if they are?). Dance heals.
I had people on Twitter track me down & have the local police to come to my home for a welfare check. I wasn't suicidal. I was being sarcastic in response to a post by someone else re the right to end your own life. I am glad you got help. Asking is hard.
Last night I was going to end my life. I posted a 'thank you' tweet not realising that it would lead some of you to be concerned. For that, I'm truly sorry. Several people reached out to me & made me see that I needed help & that it was alright to ask for it. So today I did.

When Sir John A Macdonald died in office, the person who spoke with eloquence about him was his opponent Laurier. When Chamberlain left office, his long time opponent Churchill reached out and praised him. When I left parliament Stephen Harper called me a “patriot”. That spirit has died, but it can be revived. Let us do that in this, Canada’s existential moment. Above all, right now, we are all Canadians, caught in a fight that is not of our choosing or making. But be aware that it is the fight of our lives. Those who dismiss and belittle us, and who then use economic force against us, should know that they have united and aroused us.
I love @jeanchretien12 !
"If he wants us to cut off electricity, he would have to walk up the Trump Tower with candles to go to his office, because the state of New York relies a lot on electricity coming from Canada," said former PM Jean Chrétien about the prospect of a trade war with the United States.
