She sings for freedom, a song shared widely, sung in Iran despite repression. A young woman sang freely on the street until regime forces tried to silence her. For years, both Iranian and Afghan women have raised their voices, for freedom, justice, and hope. #IranProtests
Luigi Mangione shares in new letter he’s been trying to grow an apple tree: “I’ve been trying to grow an apple tree for the last month from an apple seed. No signs of life yet, but rest assured that ‘MDC Gardens’ is coming soon.”
Luigi Mangione has been nothing but cooperative and is entitled to a fair trial, yet 130 pages of Grand Jury testimony are being withheld for his defense. Keep talking about Luigi!
Luigi Mangione faces the possibility of the death penalty, yet he is not allowed to meet privately with his attorneys. Additionally, his legal team has not received all the evidence, including basic police reports. Keep talking about Luigi!

This simple act of #WalkingUnveiled can get you killed in Iran. I received this video from inside Iran right after the brutal murder of #ArmitaGaravand 16 year old girl by hijab police.

The Fault in Our Stars has been removed from the YA section in the suburbs of Indianapolis and is now considered a "book for adults." This is ludicrous. It is about teenagers and I wrote it for teenagers.
Teenagers are not harmed by reading TFIOS. This is such an embarrassment to the city of @FishersIN.
Apologies for the pedantry, but I started Potter at 25. That said, the idea of your life can come at any age, there's no sell-by date on making it and I loathe the prescriptive 'you've got to have made it by...' nonsense.
For those who need a lesson on consent: just because a woman is explicitly and openly sexual does NOT give you the right to touch and do what you want w her body. And other people watching a woman be violated are just as guilty to me.
It is not Iranian women who are afraid of mullahs, but it is mullahs who are afraid of Iranian women.
This is a video of two brave girls in Iran walking fearlessly in front of the mullahs. They have deliberately removed their headscarves to show the mullahs who have tried to treat women like slaves for forty years: We are not afraid of you and we will break Sharia law every day.
