Imagine sending your child to school only for them to be called a “dirty filthy Jew,” told they should be “gassed” in a concentration camp and physically assaulted.
Now imagine school administrators excusing the abuse as a “crush,” placing your child in a class with a harasser and ultimately confining them to the principal’s office, where they miss out on assignments and learning opportunities.
Absolutely appalling. No Jewish student should have to endure such vile antisemitism, let alone be failed by the very adults entrusted with keeping them safe.
That's exactly why @ADL is taking action to hold the district accountable. adl.org/resources/press-rele…

Diese Frau ist wirklich das allerletze - eine Schande für Zürich, dass so jemand hier überhaupt auftreten durfte. Sie ist eine persona non grata.

Dafne Keen pays tribute to Patrick Stewart:
“I heard of Patrick’s passing earlier today, which is funny in a kismet kind of way, considering I was drafting an email to send him late last night, something I hadn’t done in quite some time.
He was such a kind, genuine, funny, unique, caring and charming man. I remember his endless jokes, nurturing nature and colourful reading glasses. Every single day spent working by his side was an honour and a privilege I can't quite believe I had. He was a walking master of his craft, and of life. One of the greatest of our time, on stage and on screen.
I have always looked up to him, and always will. As an actor and as a man. He had a wonderful way of wrapping every ancient lesson he imparted in wonder, fun and excitement. I will always remember his warmth and the respect he showed to everyone around him.
I will forever hold those months we spent together close to my heart, and will always think of him as a pivotal part of how I view the world around me.
So rest in peace, you giant, you legend amongst men. The beautiful work, humanity and kindness you leave behind will live on forever.”

We lost one of the greats of stage and screen today. And, in my book, a tremendous friend and man. I learned so much from him. I will miss you, Patrick Stewart, all of my days. @mang0ld

This is a huge loss. As a massive fan of Star Trek The Next Generation, I grew up knowing him as Captain Jean-Luc Picard. It was my favorite show. Patrick Stewart was an actor's actor that went way beyond Star Trek.. On a personal note: In a former life Patrick was a neighbor of mine. He lived in the house across the street from me and was the nicest most humble movie star i have ever encountered. He always made a point to say hello and ask me how the music business was. I would apologize for the loud guitar playing and we would have a laugh. Rest in peace Sir.

What a heartbreaking week it has been. Sir Patrick Stewart was a friend, a colleague, and a magnificent actor. From the stage to the bridge of the Enterprise, he brought intelligence, grace, and a deep sense of humanity to everything he did. Captain Picard stood for the best of us, and so did the man who played him. I was filled with affection and admiration for him and his work.
My heart goes out to Sunny and his family. He will be deeply missed.

It’s genuinely so bewildering when someone you have been mutuals with for years just randomly starts spewing the most insane, untrue shit about Israel and Jews. Like where and when did you lose your fucking mind? Oh, wait, don’t care.

Revisiting the shots I took of Jeff Beck in 2011. Without a doubt, he's always been one of my favorite players. The sound and emotion he could masterfully pull from his guitar was sonically sublime.
This is one of my favorites I took of Jeff. Love the smile on his face as he works his Strat.
I’ve got some more shots from the show. If you’re a fan of Jeff and want to see all of them, I'll be sending them out through my email newsletter in the next day. If you’d like me to send them all right to you, you can sign up on my site at: pauljendrasiakphotography.co…

RTE is flummoxed, totally and utterly bewildered they simply cannot understand this is a song calling for peace. They cannot understand Boy George at all such is the very warped view from Montrose. @BoyGeorge 👌🎶❤️💙
