It galls me to no end when I hear billionaires refer to themselves as wealth creators.
If you have such an obscene volume of wealth that you couldn’t spend it in multiple lifetimes, you’re not a wealth creator. You’re a wealth hoarder.
Like a dragon sleeping on a pile of gold.

For those who were confused when it emerged that Ayo Edebiri is Irish.
She recently committed to boycott Israeli film institutions.
One cannot simply declare that one is culturally Irish. For being Irish is something demonstrated by one’s actions.

This line did me in.
“However, there is room for multiple approaches to the same end: peace.”
I guess doing absolutely nothing is an approach. But I’m not entirely sure that you can attribute nothing with an actual end goal.

Ed Sheeran has released a statement on Macklemore being removed from his tour for speaking up for Palestine:
“I am not complicit. […] Just because I choose not to speak publicly, it doesn't mean I don't have [my own opinions], and it doesn't mean I don't care.”

Finding myself increasingly conflicted about Pauric.

The traitors have to take control of this game!
At this stage he’s gonna be under suspicion because nobody will believe that the traitors wouldn’t murder him solely to not have to deal with his whole deal.

His name isn’t actually Pauric O.
Oh, with a slight grimace is just the general response when he enters a room.

I don’t think I’ll ever see a performance as powerful as Fionuala’s farewell speech. Cillian Murphy has competition.
