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.

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."

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.

Toronto's CP24 Breakfast shared my message about the World Series to close out their show this morning. ❤

Thank you, @torontobluejays.bsky.social

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

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

I had a really rough moment a few months after losing my dad suddenly. I was practising yoga at home - this unabiding sadness welled up inside me and seemed to paralyse me on my mat. My dog dashed over and just lay there with me, his paws on my hand. They are our furry guardian angels.

Thank you, Canada. Stay nasty, strong, and free. 🇨🇦 Happy Canada Day!

This whole thing between Israel/US and Iran feels like the height of geopolitical theatre and a distraction from the genocide in Gaza (including the murder of at least 20 starving aid seekers killed this morning while desperately trying to access food for their families at distribution centres).

We're with you, LA. We can send back our water bombers to melt ICE as needed.

Once again, inaction gives the lie to the myth of Western morality. Netanyahu is a war criminal. On Thursday, he said rescuing hostages "is secondary to wiping out Israel's enemies." Apparently, Israel's enemies include babies and toddlers, pregnant women and elderly men, aid workers and journalists

Thank you, Canada.

Pope Francis, a beautiful disrupter, a rare Catholic leader with the courage to defy. He was not perfect, and the Church could certainly modernise when it comes to women, but he was the best Pope in history. May the next individual elected to this role carry forth the momentum. Rest in Power.

This is very touching.
