"Got 99 problems but a vax ain't one," Stephen Harmon once tweeted. The anti-vaxxer believed that the Bible would protect him against COVID-19. Needless to say, he was wrong. Harmon died a painful death after a month-long battle with the virus. #COVID19 bbc.com/news/world-us-…

Harry claims that he is now a man not a prince, yet Penguin describes him as "Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex". Much as I sympathise with Harry's departure from the royal family, he can't reject royalty but then cash in on his royal status for royalties. twitter.com/PenguinUKBooks…

We sent a postcard to the hunger striking undocumented migrants in Brussels to express our solidarity and wish them well. The hunger strikers have been without food for almost two months to demand official recognition of their residency. #sanspapiers instagram.com/p/CRj0ystrFSY/…

Space cowboy Jeff Bezos paid zero federal income tax in 2007 and 2011, according to @propublica. In 2011, he also claimed a $4,000 tax allowance for his kids. This means that his workers and the taxpayer bankrolled his space adventure. #JeffBezos propublica.org/article/the-se…

Believes say that God ordering Abraham to sacrifice a ram instead of his son at the last moment is a sign of divine mercy. With all due respect to them, making someone believe that they must slaughter their own child to win a deity's favour is just plain cruel and pure sadism.
