Prayers before pints, my Friday tradition… I know a lot of people suffering in silence at the moment. So sending some love and Lady Luck to all my friends and family.

Tonight do something beautiful for you. Never forget at some point in your life, you have made someone feel loved or seen. That’s a beautiful gift.

I can’t begin to express the overwhelming gratitude I have for all the incredible artists and supporters that have made BAD INFLUENCE real and got me back on set directing. But quick shoutouts to Brandon Cohen, Debbie Liebling, @michellemacedom, @melissamacedom, @zachary.burgess, @joeldavidmoore, @jarodeinsohn, @dm1127, our beyond incredibly talented, kind, and supportive cast — @_xochitl.gomez, @madeleinemcgraw, @jackchampion — and many many more I will call out in the coming months. I’m so excited to share this labor of love and fear with you all very soon❤️😈

Big news. BIG news. Lidl has stopped doing full-fat cottage cheese 😱

Not too watery, not too milky, definitely not mushed. Karen likes it lumpy, separate lumps please, and the hunt for the perfect pot is ON.

Has life been reduced to the mundane? Absolutely not. This is important.

Where do you get yours? Tell us your best cottage cheese 👇

MY FIRST VINYL 🤯 now available for pre-order. We’ve got TALK on Side A and OVERTHINKER on Side B. I’m so excited for you guys to have physical copies of these songs that mean so much to me. As always, thank you thank you thank you for everything 🫶

Saoirses little paws with a big heart. Look at those eyes. Just saying ☺️

*Viral Claim:*
A photo is being shared claiming that Delhi Police committed brutality against a female NSUI member during the CJP protest at Jantar Mantar, with captions like “inhumane behaviour, voice being suppressed by lathis and repression.”

*Fact Check - What The Full Video Shows:*

The viral photo is a cropped still from a longer video shot inside a Delhi Police detention bus during the CJP / Jantar Mantar protest.

The full unedited video, which is available, shows a completely different sequence:

1. The female protester is seen smiling and posing for the camera while inside the police bus. No physical force is being applied to her at that moment.

2. Moments later, the same protester is seen aggressively misbehaving with police personnel. She is seen pulling and pushing a woman police constable who is wearing a pink ‘Delhi Police Women Helpline’ vest.

3. She is also seen grabbing and pulling the uniform of male police officers inside the bus and attempting to pull badges.

4. Throughout the incident, Delhi Police personnel are seen maintaining restraint and trying to control the situation without using force. The woman constable is seen trying to de-escalate.

Senior journalists including Priya Sinha have contrasted this with a similar incident in Germany, where a male officer tackled a female protester to the ground, to highlight the restraint shown by Delhi Police in this case.

*Conclusion:* The claim of police brutality and inhumane behaviour is *misleading*. The cropped photo hides the context where the protester herself was manhandling police personnel. There is no evidence of lathi-charge or brutality against her in the full video.
