The world feels less magical, a little darker. I'll forever be grateful to Rob Reiner for making me not mind kissing scenes so much, for my inability to cross railroad tracks without crouching down to touch them, and for believing in true love - and making us believe, too.

I’m going to put this image out here to combat the ugliness of this day…because it captures the pure joy that emanated from his great big smile. RIP Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner💔

Eight Pointed Cross had a glow-up! First published in 2011, this baby is set for rerelease in May 2026.

"...perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell’s The Last Kingdom and James Clavell’s Shogun."

Stephen Miller is such a fucking loser. Looks like a polished knob.

These women, who were girls when they were sex trafficked, raped, trapped in abuse, and passed around to rich men like chattel, are the picture of courage. May they topple the system that has silenced them, vilified them, betrayed them. This is not political. It is justice.

I hope Tylenol sues the ever-living fuck out of this asinine administration.

The cancellation of Jimmy Kimmel's show is further evidence of a country spiralling into an authoritarian state, where saying anything even slightly critical of one's government comes with consequences, and losing one's job is only just the beginning.

Love for the Global Sumud Flotilla. The success of this little fleet will prove what we have known all along, but what most world leaders have denied: the blockade can be broken, and silence was a choice.

May the faces of these beautiful, innocent children burn into our souls. We could live a thousand years and not atone for what we have allowed to happen in Gaza. Shame on every world leader who has been too cowardly to act. Shame on every person who has not spoken out against this. #freepalestine

Murder of journalists, starvation of babies, annihilation of families, targeting of aid workers, all met with tepid responses from world leaders. Disgraceful. Disgusting. Sanction Israel for its war crimes. Stop arming a country committing genocide. Stop sanitizing the language. Call it what it is.

We must call what is happening what it is: a genocide. The systematic destruction and utter elimination of a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group. This is happening right now, and every second of inaction by the hypocritical West brings the Palestinians closer and closer to total eradication

At what point does the world sanction Israel for these atrocities? Counting the ridges in a starving baby's spine is not enough? We did not blink about imposing sanctions on Russia (rightfully so). This should be no different.

In Gaza, as hundreds of thousands are at risk of starving to death - by design, thanks to crimes against humanity carried out by the IDF - children are telling their parents they want to go to heaven, "because at least heaven has food." Think about that. Children believe death is a better option.
July 23, 2025 at 5:31 PM
We live in a world where four-year-olds are starving to death in Gaza because the IDF has strangled the aid and has weaponised humanitarian relief--a war crime; meanwhile, in the US, a nation led by those who dare to call themselves "pro-life", has incinerated 500 tons of emergency food aid.

Ten people, including six children, have been killed in an IDF air strike while waiting to fill water containers in central Gaza this morning. Waiting. To. Fill. Water. Containers.
Imagine this happening to children just about anywhere else in the world. The outrage would be impossible to contain.
