He's also responsible for raising all the money that paid for bringing Hollingsworth v. Perry & even more importantly Bostic v. Schaefer, which created the circuit split that forced SCOTUS to take on Obergefell v. Hodges. The role he played in American marriage equality cannot be overstated.
The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.
All from his movies.

i can't claim to know Kat as well as I'd like but there's never been a shred of doubt in my mind that she believes what she says and is willing to put her body on the line for that belief. I admire her.
Kat Abugazeh’s campaign has crossed a threshold where the risk she’s taking is significant enough and the actions admirable enough I sorta am past caring if it’s a publicity stunt/brand building exercise or not, it’s still brave and worthy of respect.

This is your daily reminder that rubber bullets are lethal. As lethal as a standard bullet? No, but lethal none the less.

The most striking thing about the LA protests is how many people just dropped everything to show up and yell at federal agents. There are people in suits, and carrying dogs, and wearing flip flops or bike helmets.
These are not people who planned to do this today. But there they are.

The situation has calmed slightly after the earlier escalation.
This is still @melbuer.bsky.social helping post on this thread from a better connection off scene. In a small bit of irony, Sean took a pepperball *in* the press pass alongside the rest of targeted press which I find a bit on the nose

seconding this. if you get hit directly in the head with an impact munitions like this or a grenade go immediately to the ER. don't stay to protest with your friends. Don't try to be "tough". your night or day is done. seek medical care
Head injuries like Sean's are very serious. Go immediately to the ER even if the victim is alert and talking. Brain swelling has a short delay and bleeds can start later. You can be fine one minute and dead within an hour.
Two LA photojournalists have been shot with tear gas canisters by DHS HSI, including @acatwithnews.bsky.social who was directly targeted by HSI and struck in the head. Sean is en route to the ER with obvious facial injuries. He was conscious and talking when he left the scene.

I remember when Matthew Shepard was brutally murdered for being homosexual but I had no idea Reverend Budd was finally able to give his family some peace. It makes me even angrier how she's being treated now because she had the "nerve" to ask FOTUS to be kind to all.

To quote the prophet Flavor Flav, "Imma sorry you weren't hugged enough as a child."
I’m denying it cuz it ain’t true,,, And instead of apologizing,,, you just trying to double down on an article from 9 years ago before he was president and before he was even the nominee.
Imma always Fight the Power and Fight the Trolls,,, Imma sorry you weren’t hugged enough as a child.
