We still turn to each other on road trips and say, 'You do the ooh-ooh's.' His films stay with you forever.

I am devastated by the death of Rob Reiner and his wife Michele. He was an inspired and brilliant director and a kind, good, loving man who lived his life as a tireless and generous advocate for others. I am indebted to Rob for giving me a leg up in this business, casting me in the first film I could be proud of being in, The Sure Thing and later giving me the gift of a lifetime when I was cast in The Shawshank Redemption, a film Rob produced. My heart goes out to his family and the thousands of people in the film business that were lucky enough to work with him, witness his great talent and be invited into his large, loving heart. This is a crushing loss. All my love and prayers to Rob and Michele. Flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

Yessss… …”dissenters are purged to the point where it becomes impossible to assess the political climate because disagreement is dismissed as bigotry.”

The vibe shift came for everyone... except elite millennials? Tried to make sense of it today in @unherd: unherd.com/2025/09/millen…

Wildfires covering over 1100 hectares are within 15km of our home. And @NS_DNR just re-approved glyphosate spraying in drought stricken areas. The herbicide is a known cause of highly dangerous fire conditions. Morons all of you. 😠 #Longlakewildfire #NSwildfires

@jo_bartosch This is the best🙏: "Let’s be clear: no one is denying that trans-identified people are human, or that they deserve the same rights as everyone else. What’s being resisted is not their existence, but their attempt to restructure society around their feelings."

And latest for Unherd ‘Arm trans people” as a rallying cry, the direction of travel is obvious. The placards at Trans+ Pride weren’t a glitch. They were a sign of things to come.’

Here's a great explainer on what could happen. Thanks again, @unherd, you're one of the very few news outlets I trust.

Today this little guy turns 17 (and is much taller than me)… Where did the time go? Watching Xav grow into such a brilliant, sensitive young man has been one of my greatest joys.
And to my Dad: happy birthday, too. Always wish you were here to celebrate with us.

Apologies are surely on the way to all the dissidents who were censored for saying this three years ago.

BREAKING FRONT PAGE TELEGRAPH ‘Covid jab may have led to rise in excess deaths’ FINALLY mainstream media acknowledgement in U.K. We did it 🔥🔥🔥

@wolsned It made no sense to me...ever. It wasn't a vaccine. It was an untested, experimental, ineffective treatment. You just had to follow the money. Big Pharma, Tech and media. Something was up from the start.

How did you know the COVID vaccines were dangerous when they first came out?

@VancityReynolds, just so you know, #theAdamProject stands as one of my top favourite films of all time. I can't tell you, as a single mom to a son, how that scene with you and Jennifer Garner in the bar, affected me. Such poignancy and truth. And most importantly, love. ❤️

We can’t possibly understand the cycle until we’re in it, so CONVICTION shows us what “in it” means.

@JustinTrudeau How many times do you have to get Covid to admit that it’s not actually a vaccine?
