The death penalty is inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person. The common good can be safeguarded and the requirements of justice can be met without recourse to capital punishment: effective systems of detention have been developed that protect citizens while at the same time do not completely deprive those who are guilty of the possibility of redemption. #NoDeathPenalty

Our annual Backpack Hero fundraiser for children with food insecurity across the region is back tonight. Phone lines are open between 5 and 7:30pm. Just a small donation can go a long way to help keep local kids nourished through the school year.

This is Beau. He's got a date tonight. Put on his best and only bowtie. Needs you to straighten it for him, if you don't mind. 12/10

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

I am deeply saddened by the recent escalation of attacks against Ukraine, which continue to afflict civilians. I express my solidarity with those who are suffering and assure all the Ukrainian people of my prayers. I renew my appeal for weapons to fall silent and for the path of dialogue to be pursued.

This is Tuna. You have once again taken him to the vet instead of the park. Fool him once, shame on you. Fool him twice, even more shame on you. 13/10

DO NOT LOOK AT IT DIRECTLY WITHOUT THE EYE PROPER PROTECTION, DOING SO COULD CAUSE SERIOUS PAIN AND POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO THE RETINAS

@clapifyoulikeme I work second shift, and often don't fall asleep before 4 am. You can safely bet that I would NOT be getting up to open my curtains to comply with this nonsense.

This tortoise understood it can go much faster with the help of a vehicle: it also learned how to make effective turns.

As I get older my tolerance gets lower. I often used to think, “this meeting could’ve been an email”, now it’s more, “this email could’ve been a thought you kept to yourself”.

Moons and Junes and faerye reels
The giddy daunsinge waye we feel
As everich romaunce turneth real
Ich thought on love that waye

Yet now it nys but another showe
Ye leave them laughinge when ye go
And yf ye care, let them not knowe
Give not thyself awaye

Are you all ignoring that fact that she gave Celine a standing ovation when she came on stage and was singing/dancing to her song? Are you also ignoring the fact that Celine is in bad health and Taylor didn’t know if she was allowed to hug her? Are you also ignoring that they hugged backstage probably after Taylor asked if it was okay? Gimme a break. You’re all looking for any way possible to discredit her. It’s old and boring. #GRAMMYs

Award shows are tedious and crass, but the smile on Tracy Chapman’s face when the auditorium goes nuts for her before she takes everyone to school with no lip sync, no auto-tune and no in-ear monitors is a pretty sweet moment to capture live.
