When I wake up, every day is October 26th, 1985 and Huey Lewis never left the top of the charts.

Catherine’s knowledge of humanity was always at the center of her comedy, no matter how absurd the character or loopy the material. She could play heartless because she was warm, brainless because she was brilliant, careless because she truly cared. Everyone loved her and everyone learned from her. This is a deep loss.

[Terry Moran 🇺🇸 @TerryMoran]

“F*ckin’ bitch.”

After shooting a woman in the head who had just smiled and greeted you.

After failing to de-escalate.

After moving directly into the path of the vehicle.

Then killing her as she turned to leave.

No one like that should ever have had a badge and a gun.

[UNRWA @UNRWA]

Two years of war in #Gaza. Two years too long.

It’s time for a #CeasefireNow.

Time to release all the hostages in Gaza and Palestinian detainees.

Time to lift the siege and allow a standard flow of humanitarian aid and commercial supplies under the coordination of the UN including UNRWA.

As the occupying power, Israel has unequivocal obligations under international law – including international humanitarian law and international human rights law.

Yet currently no humanitarian supplies can enter Gaza.

Meanwhile, at the crossing points, food, medicine and shelter supplies are piling up, and vital equipment is stuck.

Unimpeded humanitarian access must be guaranteed.

And humanitarian personnel must be given the protection that they are accorded under international law.

On this day 27 years ago, the Good Friday Agreement was signed. This remarkable document – made possible by political leadership, vision, and compromise – helped end a cycle of violence that had continued for 30 years on the island of Ireland. Learn more: https://t.co/5PZgRKfu8X

Three years after Russia’s full-scale invasion, 5 million people in Ukraine are facing food insecurity, with the greatest needs concentrated in areas near the frontlines.

@WFP remains committed to providing emergency aid to those in need. https://t.co/dDInfRBy9d

[United Nations @UN]

Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine has led to 3 years of persistent, escalating human rights violations & breaches of international humanitarian law, @UNHumanRights reports.

Human rights of all those affected must be central to peace negotiations:

The Palestinian people have the right to simply live as human beings in their own land.

The @UN is fully committed to peace, stability, and the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people.

On International Migrants Day, we celebrate the contributions millions of migrants make to communities, economies and countries around the world.

But today is also a day to remind ourselves of the challenges migrants can face — from prejudice and discrimination, to outright violence and abuse, to the unimaginable cruelty of human trafficking.

As a global community, we must summon our common humanity, and work to reverse these harmful trends.

Today and every day, let’s stand up for the rights of all migrants and work to create safe, humane and inclusive migration systems.

[UN Human Rights @UNHumanRights]

Today marks 1,000 days since #Russia launched its full-scale armed attack on #Ukraine. At least 12,162 civilians, including 659 children, have been killed since 24 February 2022.

I condemn in the strongest terms the devastating attack on Ohmatdyt Children's Hospital in Kyiv by Russian strikes.

I am deeply saddened by this tragedy. My heart goes out to the victims and their families.

I just left Ukraine, where I witnessed the resilience and courage of the Ukrainian people in the face of Russian aggression.

This unconscionable attack on civilians, especially children, is a grave violation of international law and the principles of the UN Charter. All civilians must be protected. #StandWithUkraine
