Amid outcry, NY prosecutors have reopened the criminal investigation into the 7 Cornell gang rapists, a case that was covered up 2 years ago. These assholes would’ve been punished if they had written “free Palestine” instead of “free p*ssy.” Cornell leadership should be investigated too.

On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

This is Nolan Wells. He deserved to live a full life, just like your own children. He went out w/his white *friends* & never came home. First they said he drowned; but his body had no water in his lungs Pls watch this video. Nolan is a person, a whole universe—not just a body. He deserves justice💔

Post: Robert Pattinson on how he landed roles in both ‘THE ODYSSEY’ and ‘DUNE: PART THREE’:

"It’s just always different. I mean, with Chris [Nolan], he basically said, “I’m doing The Odyssey.” And I’m like, “Okay, cool. I want to do it.” And then Denis [Villeneuve] was like, “Do you want to do Dune?” And I went, “Yeah.”"
