It’s depressing to know how little this woman’s (minor, I guess) celebrity has improved her life. Not that I felt like being the face of a war torn region was going to be lucrative, but.. still.
Sharbat Gula, the young Afghan girl featured on a 1985 National Geographic cover, was arrested today in Pakistan on…
Come on, you could have used a pun here of “Interstellar”.
There is a Romanian movie called “4 Months, 3 Weeks, 2 Days” highlighting the ban on abortion (among other things) in Romania during the 80's. I never heard of it until recently and had to watch the scene where the woman and her roommate meeting an illegal abortionist in a hotel room. The dialogue about the procedure…

In Colorado Springs, some disgraceful human being decided to steal a woman’s beloved Jeep Cherokee Sport while she…
I think they’re a good idea.

For example, an organization requiring its members to vote a certain way, or somebody offering money to anybody who can prove they voted for their candidate, and/or promising retaliation against…
It isn’t about selfie it is about photography. There are concerns that photos could be used to prove you voted for X for buying voters. Or could be used to document people voting, and later threatening.
23-year-old Renee Davis was killed by police officers on Friday evening during a wellness check in her home on…
Glad that she went traditional with a fist-bump marriage.
There you go, gave my own contribution to James Woods’ Twitter. It’s incredible how celebrities can’t keep their damn mouths close when they should. If he wanted the Streisand let me give him the Streisand. Waiting for my block or my lawsuit.
