Why does Nicole Kidman keep lifting her foot like that? Is this a new pose I should know about?

@Daniel_Sugarman How does an area with some of the highest child benefit claimants in the country have their own private ambulances? Seriously look it up. Tax payers paying for all of this! Wtaf

I grew up in this community and I have a few thoughts I want to share.
A short thread.

‘The targeting of life-saving vehicles stationed in the car park of a synagogue is particularly chilling and will send shockwaves through our community at a time of already heightened fears over antisemitism in the UK.‘ jewishnews.co.uk/breaking-hatzo…

@snowleopardess It doesn’t. Hatzola ambulances are for everyone. But you knew that didn’t you 🤔🙄

Streeting immediately announced today 4 NHS ambulances will be loaned to the Jewish community to replace those torched overnight, then the govt will fund replacements.
Why does the Jewish community even have its own ambulance service? Is the NHS service not good enough?

‘Don’t worry you old cunt you haven’t got long left’, @keanerthanever1 tweets to me. He calls someone else ‘you scrounging obese low iq mess’ and a third person ‘another lying spineless cunt’. Elon Musk’s X doesn’t seem to mind…

🚨🇸🇦🇮🇱 BREAKING
Saudi Arabia has arrested two Israeli Mossad agents who were planting bombs near Saudi Arabian military and civilian targets.
There are reports of Israel doing false flags in some countries and then blaming Iran for it.

The BBC has apologized for not editing out a racial slur from the BAFTA Film Awards and will remove it from the version of the broadcast on iPlayer.
"Some viewers may have heard strong and offensive language during the BAFTA Film Awards. This arose from involuntary verbal tics associated with Tourette syndrome, and as explained during the ceremony it was not intentional. We apologize that this was not edited out prior to broadcast and it will now be removed from the version on BBC iPlayer." variety.com/2026/tv/news/b…

@BalderdashianLA @eulenfrisch12 @VinnyBorden @AkiresHenri Haven’t heard anyone suggesting they should. Did you just make that up?

Why is it so hard to have empathy for the two BLACK men who got hurled a racial slur at. Why is that so hard
English
So apparently, Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo weren’t the only ones being called the N word last night. Another person was called the same thing yet Tourette’s syndrome is being used as an excuse for that man’s racist behavior. I just can’t 🤦🏾♀️

@gladplusD @TheAfrocentricI If this was at an awards ceremony for disabled people & he kept shouting 'spastics', or 'retards', they would have taken him out the audience. Regardless if it's a disability itself or not.
English
Tourette’s syndrome doesn’t make you just call Black actors winning awards the N word. This is just overt racism, call it what it is.
Variety@Variety
#BAFTAFilmAwards host Alan Cumming thanked the audience for their “understanding” after a series of audible outbursts from Tourette’s campaigner John Davidson interrupted the ceremony. • One incident saw Davidson shout the n-word while Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo were on stage. • Davidson, the inspiration for BAFTA-nominated “I Swear,” was diagnosed with Tourette’s at 25. His symptoms include tics and involuntary outbursts. • “You may have noticed some strong language in the background there, this can be part of how Tourette’s syndrome shows up for some people as the film explores that experience,” Cumming told the audience. wp.me/pc8uak-1lGWhl

@echochamberbad @ExInspectorBDS No because I assume that, unlike you, they have the intelligence to figure out that this was an involuntary remark caused by Tourette’s Syndrome
English
My thoughts are with John Davidson today, Tourettes sufferer and campaigner. He's worked hard to raise awareness of a condition that makes people shout horrible things.
It happened to him last night. At the BAFTA's.
And he's actually being condemned as a racist.
By idiots.
English
@echochamberbad @ExInspectorBDS I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume this comment is simply for attention. Nobody could be that stupid surely?
English
@ExInspectorBDS nah. i feel sorry for the two black men subjected to his vile abuse. if he couldn’t control himself and act civilly, he shouldn’t have been there.
English
@MiloRussell18 @ExInspectorBDS He didn’t “choose” it. That’s the nature of Tourette’s. Just a thought
English
@ExInspectorBDS Saw a great comment a few posts back. Of every word he could've yelled, he chose that one? Just a thought.

@spchrdwr @HeidiBachram A resistance to illegal occupation and harassment of people whos land it is. Brighton specially would to me look like a place with less attacks on migrants, where people fleeing genocidal war zones were treated properly.
English
Israel boycotters turned up in the area of Brighton where most Jews live to spread their hate today. Notorious antisemite Tony Greenstein shouted “death, death to the IDF” and “Globalise the Intifada”. They caused so many Jewish ppl distress. But that’s their goal.

@iangold20837405 @stephenpollard Why should anyone feel the need to have to “defend” Jews on their own doorstep….or anywhere else for that matter, Ian? 🤔
English
@stephenpollard Jewish humour, eh? People criticize Israel or the wrongdoing of wrongdoing Jews and you cry "Antisemitism!" or "You hate Jews", because, be they right or wrong, you feel obliged to defend Jews, Zionism, Israel.

Have an hour to spare? Join us on a Jew Hunt!
It's fun for all the family! We'll knock on doors and if we spot a Jew, note the address for future reference. And if we find a Jew sympathiser, it counts too! Jew or just Jew-friendly - they both count! Come join our Jew Hunt!

This woman purchased 3 economy seats on a plane and wrapped them with plastic wrap!! 👀
