A teacher was arrested on live TV after criticising Trump for attacking Venezuela.
The police officers said that they were arresting her for "obstructing a roadway."
Remember when this sort of thing, only ever happened in oppressive regimes and many thought, it would never happen at home?

A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.

Lovely, lovely, lovely.
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

I've had lots & lots of phone calls in my lifetime that I've never answered. I'm pretty sure that most, perhaps all of them were from non-famous people.
