Bananas game, such a mess at times, they were wide open at the back all second half. They need some experienced centre backs back and fast. Great attacking threat, but they are going to miss Amad and Mbuemo in a major way now. Interesting to see how he lines up against Villa at the weekend. #MUFC
I know that a 2-1 lead for United is always precarious these days, but holy shit this is bad. #MUFC

one of my favorite realizations re: adulthood is how much deep pleasure you get out of building things and helping people. all the more when you do it as part of a group. it shows up in every aspect of your life when you look for ways to TRULY help/build, devoid of ego or status. +

At this point, it's a badge of honour. Live your life and fight for others in a way that he responds to your passing by throwing a fit like this.

Wallace Shawn felt insecure in his role as Vizzini in the Princess Bride. Rob Reiner would constantly reassure him.
What a perfect and generous director's note this is:
“I don’t really have a Sicilian accent.”
“That’s okay, Wally. This Sicilian talks just like you. He talks exactly like you.”

i don't think it's an exaggeration to say that rob reiner is a meaningful part of the reason i have the federal right to marry today
Rob Reiner was one of the key people behind the effort to go to court to overturn California's anti-marriage equality Proposition 8 when it passed in 2008.
Working with Chad Griffin, they founded the American Foundation for Equal Rights and got Ted Olson and David Boies to team up to fight Prop 8.

Rob Reiner was a good guy. He made a lot of movies about good guys, in worlds where not everyone was good and you didn’t have to be good. He made movies about people trying. He was angry, as many hopeful people are. He knew the world could be better and he wanted it to be. His death is devastating.

A treasure from beginning to end. An irreplaceable loss.
The run that Rob Reiner went on between 1984 and 1992 is one of the most amazing hot streaks any director has ever had. Legendary stuff

The fact is no presenter has ever had to leave the BBC for expressing conservative views, or even explicitly endorsing a right-wing party.
