Hard to overstate the importance of this: Israeli and Palestinian co-directors of NO OTHER LAND speaking up for Palestinians oppressed by Israel's occupation, calling out US support for its genocide, affirming there is—still—hope for another way. The most vital this year's Oscars could have been.

Her story has shaken up metro Detroit. It's very cold up here and she didn't get the help she needed even after calling the city and multiple agencies.
She, her mom, and her kids slept in a van. Ran out of gas.
Her 9 year old & 2 year old died from hypothermia.
I can't stop thinking about her. 💔

“I regret having to sleep out there so bad. I tell them, ‘I’m sorry, but I tried.’”
These kids deserved our protection. This mother deserves our protection. We are collectively failing one another.

absolutely delighted my new stock of Keanu flower crown stickers created by the wonderful @darcydubose.bsky.social have arrived!
I have been giving these out to friends (and sometimes foes in the spirit of Keanu generosity) for literally years now at random moments and they've always been a hit. 💞

Libraries are so wild! Like I wanted to read a book that is out-of-print (and not available digitally), and I just walked into the library and checked it out and walked out the door! One of the best things we've got!

Literally me passing Jaci a brown paper bag (only the most elegant of wrapping paper), and saying, "I went to the bakery and the oceans have become battlefields." Lol
Meanwhile at Chez Librarinth, oceans have become battlefields.

The conditions shown are at a non-union worksite. The UFW activated “mask captains” of union members sent home early due to dangerous conditions to help distribute 20,000+ masks to non-union workers in their community.

I watched this via Scarecrow last year and it was one of my favorite finds of 2024.
Absolutely iconic work from all three, and especially Elizabeth Taylor doing her own Michael Caine impression at one point.

We were so enthralled watching Elizabeth Taylor, Michael Caine, and birthday girl Susannah York in the delightfully trashy X Y & ZEE that we forgot to post about it while it was playing. Our apologies.
