Love how Day of the Dead’s opening credits make it look like the movie was directed by this skeleton

I just paid $5.32/gallon for hi-test this morning...and I can afford it. Lots of folks can't. Donald Trump, you can take your war and stuff it up your fat and leaky ass.

Show this to anybody who still denies the genocide.  These were all people's homes. Completely and totally destroyed. These images should haunt those who enabled Israel's crimes against humanity - and we will never give up until there is justice for the Palestinian people.

Trillionaire who got $38B in taxpayer money is mad NYC wants to make groceries affordable so working families can feed their kids. This is what class warfare looks like. Fuck Elon Musk.

Former Canada PM Jean Chrétien: "Never mistake our generosity for weakness. Never mistake our tolerance for lack of determination. And never, never mistake our kindness for softness. We bow to no one." #cdnpoli

My statement on Israel's decision to ban me and 10 other British MPs from entry. "I have visited all parts of Palestine on several occasions, where I have witnessed the horrors of occupation, as well as the resilience and humanity of the Palestinian people. They are the ones who suffer from Israel's apartheid. It is their freedom which is egregiously curtailed, alongside thousands of Palestinian refugees who are denied the right of return. As the world wakes up to the genocide in Gaza, it is shocking that Israel continues to deny entry to UN investigators and international journalists. Israel doesn't want the world to see what it is doing - but we can never give up in our attempts to expose the truth. That is the real scandal. Israel’s genocide cannot go unpunished - and I will keep speaking up for peace, freedom and justice for the Palestinian people."

The name Lake Ontario comes from the Wendat word Ontari’io, which, appropriately, means “the lake is beautiful, the lake is big”. The name is more than 400 years old, predating both the Confederation of Canada and the Declaration of Independence of the United States of America. We know that America is changing. Their trading relationships, their foreign policies, their national monuments, their hydronyms. Canadians also know that naming reality means calling it Lake Ontario – then, now and always.

"Dolly Parton’s unassuming spirituality serves as a reminder of what the true heart of Christian character should be – what it often is, quietly, away from the headlines." @mlmpennington reflects on the life and faith of #DollyParton, who has died aged 80.
