This morning I saw a Karen Bass For The Workers billboard... and it was obviously made with AI. Guess she doesn't consider graphic designers to be workers

Cozy and genuinely terrifying. Definitely what I aspired to at times in my youth

My submission

ICE keeps running people over. Another one today in NorCal this time.

I have always stood up to him and that will never change. The pedophile protector will never silence me.

Drop a film you saw on a first date

I wrote another post. Two posts in two weeks? Really going crazy here... still don't have my writing mojo back so don't expect much

There’s a new ICE surge happening in the Greater Los Angeles Area now. At least 20 people have been taken by noon in Southern California, numbers we haven’t seen in a long time. @lataco.bsky.social

This is so incredibly stupid.

and don't forget "we can't tax our fwends the billionaires" and "giving water rights away to those rich people was fine because they're rich DEMOCRATS"

I might be blogging again. I don't know.

This actually isn’t doing the sunset justice

Doing Dan Sheehan's quiz this week made me realize that 1966 might be my favorite year for movies ever en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...

I know we swallow a lot of garbage people like him dish out, but I don’t think he’s talked to a normal human in a very long time if he expects us all to go “oh,ok” with this one

OH FUCK THIS

This is some fine map-making

Kind of hard to work with any enthusiasm right now ngl

Shit - I don't know how much of this story I can read. The breathless definition of AGI ("a technology that can match the powers of the human mind"), the AI film production company, fucking GRIMES.... It might be time to nuke the entire peninsula

I may be having a stroke

I was deputy M.E. at the WSJ when Murdoch took over, with a similar “editorial independence board.” Within 4 months, our top editor was gone, replaced by a loyal Murdoch deputy. That board raised a quivering objection, but the deed was done. If the Ellisons own CNN, they’ll do whatever they want.

The man ICE shot in Austin today is named Wilber Rafael Garces Perez. Per his lawyer, she and Perez’s family were run off of hospital property where he’s being treated and won’t even confirm he’s there because he’s “in ICE custody.” Actual criminals.

Oh, not staged at all. Give me a fucking break

So much more satisfying than typing STOP

Got my belated birthday present to myself this afternoon - thank you @peculiarityshop.bsky.social!

TMZ - the only media in DC with any guts

he did many of cher’s and dolly’s most glamorous gowns but what i will always remember most about bob mackie was this iconic look. and i think he’d be fine with that.

Shared elsewhere on The Monkees socials. Here's Davy Jones in full music hall mode from Head with some of the most incredible film editing you will ever see. youtu.be/QDi7MAbDyr0?...

I don't get why this is so hard for Dem politicians to understand

This is stupid.

holy crap look at this

"I won’t even begin to discuss the mismanagement of Lineage Fire, smoke, exposure, and misinformation; that would take too many pages, but add that to the mismanagement of the Palisades recovery, and homelessness, and the deflecting and finger-pointing that happens," Segura writes. A must-read!

Segura describes working in an administration where climate action was sidelined — she held three jobs at once! — forcing her to deliver more with fewer resources. She also highlights broader institutional patterns that affected other climate-related departments like tree planting

With all due respect to the people holding “ICE out” signs at the Menlo Park and Palo Alto farmers markets, a sign that said “if you work for Palantir you are building fascism” might be more locally impactful.

Major account is going through a thing with Los Angeles/Angelenos today to a remarkable extent. I don't know if they recently moved here and are put out by the rain or what but oh hey - mute button!

Gabby Goat. Rocky the gangster. All would have been preferable choices to the generic current iteration of Bugs

Just noticed that I posted about three people I knew and loved dying in August. That is fucked up and I don't want that happening again.

I'm home sick with COVID and stopped watching The Long, Hot Summer because I needed to know what was going on with Orson Welles' makeup. I didn't get a real answer to that, but I did learn about his fake nose collection. cinemasojourns.com/2014/03/30/t...

Have you seen COYOTE VS. ACME (2026) in theaters yet?! 🧨 These are some of the red carpet moments we captured at the sold out World Premiere last week at the Directors Village 🤩

Chuckles used to work in the PE department at a community college, and when they were moving offices she let me sift through a lot of the "crap" they were throwing away. Treasures. Play a weird party game tonight in her honor. She would like that.

One of the finest human beings I've ever known left this planet yesterday. I love you, Chuckles.
