MASSIVE protest demanding Netanyahu to RESIGN🔥

This is what oligarchy looks like: 50 billionaires in America with a collective net worth of $1 trillion have spent over $600 million on the 2024 election. Democracy is supposed to be about one person, one vote, not billionaires buying elections. We must overturn Citizens United.

A reminder that the length of a Cannes standing ovation truly does not matter and is based on so many variables (including size of the cast and how many of them got to go to the premiere, since each person is given their own half-minute of applause)

When asked what book I'd take to a desert island, I said, The Stories of Alice Munro. There is so much there that you can read + reread + always find more. I can’t remember when she wasn’t in my life or through her writing, revealing things to me about my life. Her loss is huge.

I was told as a young comedy intern to never go into a room alone with Louis C.K. so no, I don't think we should just say 'enough time has passed' when that was put on a 24 year old to protect herself from a predator while working
