Almost always more interested in how we talk about a thing than I am in the thing itself.
A San Diego infectious disease doctor says it’s probably best to stay away from fresh produce for the next week or so, even if you wash it. A fecal parasite illness, known as cyclosporiasis, has now reached California. NBC 7’s Shandel Menezes has details. on.nbc7.com/fJ8api2
Hollywood is a dump. Someone explain to me like I’m 10 how we continue to elect the same type of people who are allowing our city, or at least my side of the city, to go to hell.
Things don't need to look this way
I feel like im one of the few people who completely sympathizes with Britney. To lose your freedom/basic human rights for 15 years, forced into being a full time cash cow for your family while they control and own every part of you would drive anyone insane & stunt them mentally
genuinely my only frame of reference for lindsay graham is cole escolas impression of if he got cast in Oh Mary
She has these moments of lucidity during which she’s able to articulate what happened to her so perfectly and it’s absolutely heartbreaking.
Emergency personnel responded to a call for “cardiac arrest” at Lindsey Graham’s Capitol Hill home on Saturday night, according to police scanner audio obtained by NBC News. Photographs reviewed by NBC News show that paramedics carried a person on a stretcher from Graham’s home to an awaiting ambulance. Police cars and fire trucks were also on site. nbcnews.com/politics/polit…
Mayor Mamdani released his map of New York City’s “immigrant enclaves.” Except, he forgot a few spots. Little Italy—one of the oldest immigrant communities in New York City—didn’t make the cut. Here’s what the Italian-Americans whose families have been a part of Little Italy’s history told @IsabellaRedjai.
The Gays were Gaying back in the 90s
Russell Crowe says he turned down The Lord of the Rings, including 10% of the business, costing him an estimated $100,000,000 Howard: “They offered you 10%, this is the business, of the gross of the movie. Why did you turn down The Lord of the Rings?” Russell: “I didn't think Peter Jackson actually wanted me on the film. I think he was forced into talking to me. There was a moment in time when everybody wanted me for everything. He's a fellow New Zealander, I can hear his voice when I was talking to him on the phone, and my instinct was that he had somebody else in mind, which turned out to be Viggo Mortensen. And he should be allowed to hire the actor that he wants” Howard: “I did the math, but I think you would've gotten $100 million. Do you ever say, ‘Jesus Christ, I could've had $100 million.’ It would be nice to have an extra $100 million, would it not?” Russell: “It would not go astray”
