idk, it seems quite timely to be showing radicals and activists as imperfect and thorny but still sympathetic and ultimately human, given everything happening in the world

honestly i think one of the real strengths of the film is that it does not feel didactic, it does not read as a political screed, it is a character driven film that is deeply interested in humanising those who choose to participate in revolution, warts and all

the niche of people who are deeply unhappy that one battle after another isn't radical enough is so fascinating to me... thinking the 175 million dollar hollywood movie would be a radical leftist text is kind of a losing chess to a dog situation im afraid

ok it's actually easier than it looks because it's a sleeveless turtleneck top underneath the side-slit t-shirt so you could definitely achieve it

Israel accused of detaining Greta Thunberg in infested cell and making her hold flags Activist tells Swedish officials she has been subjected to harsh treatment, including insufficient food and water

β€œThey dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others."

she was β€œwrapped in the Israeli flag and paraded like a trophy."

I'm not even against dryers in general, they are helpful when you have sheets that need drying with dust allergies or a small apartment. but yowza

while the americans are asleep can we talk about how crazy it is that they all still mostly use dryers to dry their clothes and not a drying rack like the rest of us like girl the planet is dying
