    I used to be a fan of Billy. Especially his work in theatre until I met him at an event my work was hosting during pride. The evening was miserable because he was the MEANEST and most condescending person I’ve ever come across. Literally the type to snap his finger at you to get your attention and not look up at you when asking a question. And that’s just the beginning. Sadly I’ve heard since then that it’s very normal behavior from him.

      It's unfortunate, for sure. This isn't the first time I've heard stuff like this about him, sadly. He's such a good actor, but it's disappointing to keep hearing stories like these about him.
      I hope things change, somehow.

    The war in Israel getting worse. The lord may be coming soon.
    Jesus saves
    - Repent for sins
    - Ask for guidance from the holy spirit. If it doesn't feel right dont do it.
    - Follow his commandments.
    - Pray for peace, faith, and to guard your heart and mind.

      There's no war in "Israel". There's a genocide in Palestine being committed by the so-called Jewish state of Israel
