omg why did Netflix not put a “uncontrollable sobbing guaranteed” notice on The Perfect Neighbour???

I’m not okay💔😫

I hope Susan Lorincz is being terrorised in prison like she terrorised that neighbourhood.

there is space for all of us in social justice, while some of you are evangelising, the rest of us can work on HOW we apply our grand ideas.

i do not believe in conversion therapy of any sort. i like to preach to the converted. leave me out of your discussions with people who want to debate human rights, climate change, queer rights, animal rights, basic kindness really etc.

Stop ✋🏾 giving your money to those friendly, mostly unwitting, European youths in markets and malls asking you to send money to build villages or educate children in Africa and the Middle East. Do your research first!

Syria’s Stolen Children Under the Assad regime, hundreds of Syrian children were hidden in orphanages to extort their parents. Families still have few answers from the new government or the international charity that kept it...

the evil that is European “children’s foundations” could be written about for centuries and it would still never tell the full story.

i played Arvo Part’s Spiegel Im Spiegel to a group of people once and they were unmoved. At that moment I knew I could never never be their friend. i still stand by that decision.

it is blasphemous to not like that song or immediately go silent and become melancholic while listening to it.

Millions of sharks are taken from the ocean each year for their fins, largely to supply shark fin soup—putting their future at risk. 💔

Kenya: Shakahola cult horror reawakens Fresh bodies have been found in Kilifi, near the mass graves that were discovered in 2023.

Two years ago, more than 400 bodies were unearthed in Shakahola Forest near the Kenyan coast, linked to a doomsday sect that coerced its members to starve themselves to “meet Jesus” before the world ends. Now, more than a dozen more bodies have been uncovered in the same county, Kilifi.

If he is dying, I hope it hurts, and I hope he's scared.

I would also pay for the copies! It would be a great way to support good journalism at a time when so many valuable publications are struggling to survive.

tbh. i think it was fuelling hope more than it was pure speculation…

@thecontinent.org love your work! 😍

brilliant journalism and brilliant storytelling through photography, illustration and other art mediums

One of my favourite things about the @thecontinent.org is the artistic/ creative direction. Every cover feels like a new piece of art.

this feels suspicious

“It’s no longer one war but many, all happening at the same time, feeding into each other. In all of them, the same pattern: armed groups taking, punishing, and controlling.” Moe Kadana (pseudonym) about the Sudan war in Iss. 209 of @thecontinent.org

i don’t know if the Jussie Smollett documentary exonerates him. he seems very unlikeable. but so does every single person in this documentary. maybe the documentary exonerates Jussie by showing us that everybody involved in this case is a pos, so you can’t believe anything they say.
