Rob Reiner credited his dad Carl Reiner and his "second father" Norman Lear for his activism. Losing them all in a span of just 5 years is heartbreaking. Rob Reiner's creative achievements will live on, but his willingness to risk it all for social justice is, for me, his greatest legacy. #FilmSky

On a personal note. I knew Rob Reiner & his lovely wife Michelle. One of my happiest memories was chatting with them in their kitchen, making sandwiches talking politics, and movies. They were kind people. Extraordinarily normal and very, very kind. I love & miss them already. Life is short.

Lifts are for the duration of few seconds, imagine train commutes to work esp with standing space only. Hard to imagine them without phones. Can't read a book amidst all that jostling and constant interruptions.

Anecdote time. Spared a few mins amidst the hectic day & took a short walk in a neighborhood garden. Spotted cute kitty who looked v wary of me & ran away. I walked another round and came by same kitty again. This time I just stood still & he came & rubbed his back against my heel. #cat

What a fascinating thread.

Oscar Isaac talking about how Jacob Elordi would go click click click with his small camera during #Frankenstein. Apparently he's been into photography since quite some time. Here's one shot by him from 2023. And here are his recent shots. www.netflix.com/tudum/galler...

It's my all-time favorite comic strip.

Saw this post only today but will still repost because C n H deserve our love EVERYDAY ❤️

Still the GOAT comic strip, AND it's held up brilliantly. It's every bit as enjoyable today as it was during its initial run.

The World’s Goodest Boy(👇) was half Pyr, and I cannot recommend the breed/mixes enough. Friendly, lazy, easy-going nature and usually great with kids (as well as other animals). If you have room in your heart and your yard - take a chance on one of these good boys/girls. You won’t find a better dog.

wickson is also a great goalie

I was born with a severe congenital heart defect. Thanks to the blessing of my mother working for the federal government, after 6 open-heart procedures I am here with you today. If insurance companies treated government insurance like market insurance, I'd have died. Health care is a human right.

Without any warning the weather in Mumbai/KDMC region has become cold. Wasn't it raining in KDMC just a few days ago? Our bodies esp those of elders haven't had time to adjust to this sudden dip in temperatures at night. My nose has become runny already 🙄

ICE and CBP *already* had serial killers and serial rapists on the books, brutalizing people without consequence for years and decades and whole careers. Giving them basically infinite money and even more power to victimize even more powerless victims, will definitely attract even more.

Like: CBP agents already famously named migrating people "tonks" after the sound made when they smash their heads with their tactical flashlights. They already gleefully did photoshoots of slicing open jugs of water in the desert They already hired serial killers en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juan_Da...

How many serial killers do you think ICE and CBP have on the books, gleefully expanding the scope of victims far far beyond their wildest dreams. Golden State Killers and Daniel Holtzclaws given absolute mountains of cash and complete legal impunity, etc

With Trump’s massive tax cuts for the wealthy currently exploding the deficit, and now this, Trump and his oligarch cronies want to make us debt slaves from birth to death while truly owning nothing, while they buy bigger yachts and more mansions.
