As we mourn Rob Reiner, don’t skip this: he was, pretty much, personally responsible for overturning California’s Prop 8 banning same sex marriage. www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.

There's a guy on Twitter who posted about Rob Reiner's perfect run of films and included North. Every time someone calls out North, he says "Not the time, 2 people are dead." It's making me laugh until I cry, and I'm confident Rob Reiner would have found it hilarious.

Here's another early one: a January 1967 episode of Batman. Reiner had one line. One word, in fact: "Batman?!" Four years later, he'd become Meathead on All in the Family.

The California ACLU is staunchly opposed to the ignition interlock device program and is a big reason that it has not been expanded. Despite the fact that California heavily subsidizes the cost for low-income drunk drivers, the ACLU says that the program is a form of "racialized wealth extraction."

There’s a stage in this where you do a beat-em-up bar fight as fully nude Arnold while Bad to the Bone plays. Very fucking good video game imo.

@grizzthebeagle It’s been 24 HOURS since we have launched our beagle earmuffs! Supply is low. Order before we run out ‼️‼️ We wanted to create earmuffs because we have noticed that there are NO earmuffs on the market that is SPECIFICALLY made for beagles. All the ones on Amazon are simply just coverings over their ears and neck, it doesn’t allow their ears to still hang low and help them with their sense of smell πŸ‘ƒ Beagles also have sensitive ears — fireworks and other loud noises can be anxiety provoking. We hope that these earmuffs will help mitigate and reduce their anxiety. Our poor beagle has also suffered multiple ear infections πŸ‘‚ in the past. We hope that our ear muffs will keep their ears dry and protected. Any questions? Feel free to DM us or leave a comment below! In the meantime, grab yours before it’s gone! LINK IN BIO. We accept Apple Pay and PayPal. Available for a limited time only 😬 #beaglesofinstagram #beagle #dogaccessory #dogwalks #beaglefit ♬ original sound - grizzthebeagle
