I’m sad to say that my father, Jerry Stiller, passed away from natural causes. He was a great dad and grandfather, and the most dedicated husband to Anne for about 62 years. He will be greatly missed. Love you Dad.
I don’t usually get into this, but seems like the next time the president says “who had any idea something like this could happen” the next question from whoever should be “what about all the warnings by the health agencies and intelligence community that are all documented?”
Thanks so much for the incredible outpouring of love and appreciation for Jerry. I know how much it would mean to him. And he would have loved this beautifully written obit in the

Question that would be great to be asked:
“If you inherited a broken system, why did you do nothing to fix it in the first 3 years of your administration?”
Please remember that time when Chadwick Boseman gave away his MTV award for Black Panther to James Shaw Jr — who fought off MAGA gunman at a Waffle House in Nashville.

These are people like you and I, familles with kids, who will be struggling all winter to stay alive because their power and fuel will be be targeted purely to make them suffer. I think the US should do all we can to help them. Okay, that’s it. Happy Holidays x
The Mets and Marlins took the field, had a 42-second moment of silence, and then walked off.
The only thing left on the field: a Black Lives Matter shirt.
Once again, I asked my Republican colleagues to stop endangering all the Senate workers - and simply wear a mask when presiding over the Senate.
Once again, they refused.
I don’t think I ever laughed as hard as I did sitting on a flight to LA across from Gilbert once in the early 90’s.He would do something funny and not stop till you stopped laughing. God he was funny. So funny.
Sending love to his family.

We have so much to deal with at home, but this is an existential and humanitarian crisis that has implications beyond Ukraine. I hope we can all stand together with those struggling for their lives and freedom right now.
I saw the destruction and talked to those civilians affected directly by this unprovoked war. If you could see the affects of this unjust aggression in person, the scale of the destruction and heartbreak, helping the Ukrainian people at this time would not be a question.
25 years ago today, THE CABLE GUY barged headlong into theaters. Starring Jim Carrey at his most deviously unhinged, the dark comedy classic was directed by Ben Stiller (

I never met a kinder, more empathetic comedy genius. He was so funny. And deep. As a stand up he was really iconic in the 70s. Cool, funny, self deprecating and hip. He was a friend to my parents and the whole Stiller family. As a kid i remember seeing him at the Improv and…
Richard Lewis, the stand-up comedian who also starred alongside Larry David in “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” has died. He was 76.
Lewis announced last April he had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and was retiring from stand-up comedy.
The United States is a country made up of refugees and immigrants, save for the people who were here first who were marginalized and those brought over in bondage against their will. That is who we are. And we have welcomed refugees as we were welcomed, and we have...
I don’t usually do this kind of posting but my friend is running for Congress. He’s incredibly qualified, experienced and extremely decent. We need people like him serving us and the country.
I'm no longer serving in uniform but now I have a new mission. To defend democracy, fight Trump and MAGA extremists, and serve the people of Virginia. I'm running for VA7!

I make no apologies for Tropic Thunder. Don’t know who told you that. It’s always been a controversial movie since when we opened. Proud of it and the work everyone did on it. 🙏✊😊
Bob Saget was so kind and when you spent time with him he made you laugh hard. He loved to be funny and he was hysterical. He was also there for everyone. A beautiful soul.
At the Medyka border in Poland I met families who fled the war in Ukraine, leaving loved ones behind, with no idea when they will be able to return home.

40 years ago tonight I was outside the Dakota, my best friend and I in disbelief at what had happened. I got in trouble for staying out late. Still one of the most defining moments of my life. Sending love to everyone who’s lost someone.

Pushkin Square, maybe less than 1000 meters from Red Square and the Kremlin, is the cite of a significant protest. These people know the risks of challenging the regime. They’re on the street in-spite of major personal costs.

I made the mistake of checking how much my Zoom call is going for. Please don’t make me question why I allowed myself to be auctioned in the same group as the guy from Fox and Friends and be worth less. But it’s for a good cause:

Lance Reddick was an beautiful and compelling actor. And a beautiful person. He worked with my mom Anne Meara in her play “Afterplay”, playing Raziel, the waiter slash angel of death. He was exquisite in that and all he did.
Nothing is lost. 💙
1/ I’m very sad about the passing of William Hurt. A brilliant actor, who put everything into his work. I had a chance to spend time with when I was younger. My father worked with him in a play called Hurlyburly by David Rabe. They were both amazing in it.
So so sorry to hear about the really wonderful
