Absolute legend.

But really, *those* are the movies we're naming? She won an Oscar for ANNIE HALL and more than held her own with an all-star cast in the GODFATHER films.

Make no mistake. Those who spearheaded the Gaza genocide will try to relaunch it in a more ruthless manner, at the earliest opportunity.
They will fail only if there will be an alternative vision, one of recognition, life and equality for everyone.

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

Whether in this lifetime or the next, I hope anyone who's ever doubted how badly people with ME/CFS want to get better gets to experience it for themselves.

I can't be all turn the other cheek about it. I hope they suffer firsthand and in their pain they'll find out just how wrong they were.

In the firing line, as ever, are the UK’s hundreds of thousands of ME/CFS patients. As a practitioner once remarked, “the bastards don’t want to get better”. If there is one characteristic all the ME/CFS patients I’ve come across have in common, it is a desperation to get better.

I think people take for granted the ability to post freely on the internet. Our ability to do so is endangered. Social media isn't going away but the powers that be are hyper focused on making it an echo chamber
