Rob Reiner, at worst, should have won the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. At best, he should have received an honorary Oscar.
It's possible he turned it down multiple times, but this should be rectified.

In a world where fewer and fewer people concern themselves with the plight of others, the loss of Rob Reiner, who cared deeply about humanitarian causes, feels that much more devastating. RIP: 1947-1925.

As we mourn Rob Reiner, don’t skip this: he was, pretty much, personally responsible for overturning California’s Prop 8 banning same sex marriage.

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.

They are openly saying this.

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

This is the small open boat Team Hegseth bombed and then bombed again. It's almost 1700 miles by sea from Trinidad to Miami. There is no way this boat was headed for the US.

Bookmark this for the investigations to come: the Trump team’s boat bombings trace back to at least 2018. That’s when White House officials asked me & others about whether they could do something like this.
We said it was illegal then. Now they’ve done it anyway.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

I recall the orange convicted felon once saying people would stand in long lines begging for food if Kamala Harris became President.
Now in 2025 people are seen in Cleveland and other cities standing in long lines for food due to his cruelty.

The good news is that Trump is very unpopular and his actions are wildly unpopular but the bad news is that a lot of craven people were willing to go along with a lot of really bad stuff that will and has hurt a lot of people. Also a lot of billionaires proved themselves to be huge cowards.

Every time you reduce disability benefits…
You harm the economy.
You put more pressure on the NHS and Social Care.
You put more people out of work.
You harm and kill the most vulnerable.

A government office worker who helps seniors and the disabled with social security benefits shared her emotional response to the government shutdown. Essential government workers like her haven't been paid in four weeks. The pressure of it all has led to panic attacks: "We don't deserve this."

Once upon a time, California showed that you can reduce drunk driving deaths simply by trying. Now, the state’s headed backward.
And as deaths have increased, law enforcement has done less: DUI arrests statewide dropped from nearly 200K in 2010 to 100K in 2020.

Patriarchy in tech is so exhausting, even as a man. No matter how hard you try to explain it to people, they still "reason" their way to sexism.
I know women are angry. They would be even more so if they more often saw the horrible reasoning behind it.
