BREAKING: Crowds gathering in Trafalgar Square to oppose the unlawful ban on Palestine Action. Despite the High Court ruling that the ban is unlawful, the Met police decided to continue making arrests following an embarrassing u-turn on their policy not to.

Protesters gathered in Trafalgar Square as it filled with voices condemning ICE terror From London, a clear message rang out state violence will not be ignored. When abuse goes unchecked, the world responds. Solidarity doesn't stop at borders. 🇬🇧

The Swalwell accusations suddenly appear when he's the frontrunner for Governor? Not a year or two years ago? This is the first time my "believe the woman" spidey sense seems off. Maybe it took the republicans this long to pay everyone off? I'm the last person to defend cis men's behavior but this?

2nd viewing, this time from upstairs where I can see all of the choreography.

Looking for a matinee.

Finding more pix, this one is SusiePie. Such joy in her little face.

I just found this photo of me and my father, Louis Pane. Taken in the summer of 1990, he died of pancreatic cancer two months later. He was only 68. He worked his entire adult life to provide for the nine kids and mommy, Emily. His retirement was brief. I'm 69 now and was 33 in this photo.

Drenched from the rain and face puffy from dr appt, it was the ideal time to run into Edward Petherbridge and some rogues from Wolf Hall.

I guess I was sitting next to a celebrity, in my lobby. A young woman came by and asked to take a photo with her. Both appeared to be in their early 20s. 🤷‍♀️
