Broadway actress Allie Trimm, who recently starred as Glinda in the hit Broadway show "Wicked," is calling out the show's producer, Marc Platt, for censoring everyone who spoke out in support of Palestine.

“I was told verbatim if I talk about this then I won’t work again and that the show can create any rationale to justify those choices to not work with me.”

The cost of living crisis is not a ‘crisis’, it’s a transfer of wealth.

Prices didn’t rise because life got harder — they rose because capitalists used Covid as an excuse to hike them and now we're paying their excess profits forever, all while our politicians look the other way.

These end times are not at all what we thought they'd be 🥴

The Gaza documentary “NAZA” earned a massive 24.5 minute #Venice Film Festival ovation as the crowd cheered and waved Palestinian flags.

This marks the longest-ever standing ovation at Venice, and perhaps the longest at any film festival, period.

The new documentary was shot at night on the rooftops of Tel Aviv and shows “in detail the systems behind Israel’s calculated mass killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza,” per an official synopsis.

Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor interviewed 24 Israeli military intelligence officers and soldiers — all of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity — who were involved in the surveillance or remote killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza. Their appearance and voices were digitally altered to disguise their identities.

Haaretz says it stands by its reporting.

"Idiocracy" was released on this day, 20 years ago - September 1, 2006.

It wasn't simply a film, it was a warning, and now it's reality.

"Observing that “evolution does not necessarily reward intelligence”, the narrator explains that “with no natural predators to thin the herd, it began to simply reward those who reproduced the most – and left the intelligent to become an endangered species”.

I wish I knew who this boy is so I could credit him. He's wiser and better informed than most grownups!

I have never understood the practice of driving and parking on beaches.
Imagine lazing in the sun while lying in traffic! 🤦🏽‍♀️
