Gotham edited Nealy out of their car freshener series and it’s so obvious and makes me sad

The Pope himself reminded people last week, that pro-life means all life, these losers are just continuing to show that their faith is for show and they care nothing for their fellow man

Yesterday, Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe, a Catholic who has called himself “pro-life,” announced he would not grant Lance Shockley clemency.

In a flurry of recent legal filings, the Department of Corrections and Shockley’s team sparred over his spiritual advisor choice ahead of tonight’s execution.

Protein is probably the most studied OTC supplement related to health & fitness - feels like a big thing to have missed previously! I'll be very curious to see if this article from Consumer Reports is replicated by academic researchers.

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

We're seeing variants of this dynamic over and over (and over). These are not the words and actions of a disciplined, principled, and honorable government agent. They rather reflect the toxic mindset that holds that "if you're not cop you're little people" and "rules just get in the way."

This morning I was filming ICE abducting sometime in Petworth. One of the agents told me "the last US citizen that did this he put in cuffs all the way to the courtroom".

I’m no longer covered by my insurance for it. The city of New York had their insurance partner take all weight loss injectables out of their formulary because they don’t want to pay for it. Thankfully I can just barely cover the cash price, but it shouldn’t have to be this way

I haven’t really talked about this much in online spaces, but I’ve been on zepbound since March and I had a weight check/refill appt today and I’m officially down more than 40lbs. I’ve tried the trad methods, body positivity, but I’ve never felt better than I have with this drug, and

God I miss network tv, this time of year especially. We’ve given up holiday episodes, storylines to match what’s going on in the world. Shows have trouble staying relevant because they’re made so far in advance of when we actually see them

She is but she’s still so young. Girelli is almost 40, and like I said could’ve been at any team she pleased and built an incredible career with all the accolades, but stayed in Italy and forced the game forward

Italian women’s football is still really early in terms of its support. Serie A was still semi pro until like two years ago, so players like Girelli and Bonansea were grinding it out and building the culture with nothing. They could’ve left Italy at any point and played for top teams but they stayed

I now realize that for my entire adult life, I've had a very narrow conception of what "supporting and defending the Constitution" means. Standing on business when armed agents of the State are knocking on your door is way more important, by a country mile, than anything I did overseas

Border Patrol “attempted to arrest a plumber working inside a Logan Heights home but left empty-handed after the homeowner refused them entry.

The homeowner told agents she would not allow them inside because the warrant they presented did not include her address and lacked a judge's signature.”
