Hey FYI there’s a 2016 interview where Spencer Pratt says his dream job is to work for the CIA & manipulate the media on behalf of the government! FYI! In case you find that as interesting as I did! www.refinery29.com/en-us/2016/0...

Yep. He was using binoculars, and then the scope, which suggests he was using the scope for a different reason than using the binoculars.

I addressed Nithya Raman today at the LA City Council. While campaigning for mayor, she’s touted the fact that she helped craft LA’s Sanctuary City policies, claiming LA doesn’t collaborate with ICE. But… the LAPD admits they DO help, just not with apprehensions. …Is that what she intended?

These are photos of the LAPD doing the bidding of a masked ICE agent whose shirt possibly signals his membership in a far-right extremist militia group trying to spark a civil war. LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell says it’s fine for him to wear a mask that says POLICE. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boogalo...

The other night I watched a cop literally named HELPER send someone through the police line and back into the crowd of protesters they were trying to disperse. He said the person was “ruining the media’s shot” and needed to get on that side of the police line if they wanted to demonstrate. 😵‍💫

Who do you go to for help when, in front of a room of some of the most powerful people in LA, a policeman laughs with a man wearing a swastika *while* the mother of a man murdered by the government sobs and begs those powerful people — ignoring the cop laughing with swastika man — for justice?

HIGHEST 2 LOWEST – Something fascinating about a movie about old vs. new school rap culture snapping HARD into place when Rosie “Do The Right Thing” Perez & Anthony “Original Broadway Cast of Hamilton” Ramos play themselves at a Puerto Rican celebration through the streets of the Bronx. Great movie.

Saw FRANKENSTEIN again, followed by a Q&A with Jacob Elordi!! Talking about crafting his (Oscar-worthy!!) performance as the Creature, he points out that hands have always been important in Guillermo del Toro films, going back to CRONOS.

Someone on Reddit said these photos I took at a protest outside Jimmy Kimmel Live in September were probably AI because they were “too gay, even for LA” 🙃

this is a nonsensical way to approach an analysis of disinformation and the collapse of modern meaning-making.

The AI starts summarizing my position as “this single image reveals the whole authoritarian state” and “every ambiguous police image proves authoritarianism” My piece **is explicitly about how pretending that’s what I’m saying lets you dodge the broader context!** www.webworm.co/meaningofaph...

I think if you start your podcast about incels with your leading expert saying “It really exploded on the scene when Netflix had their documentary series ADOLESCENCE,” I probably am not gonna listen to the rest of your show!

…which escalates into Chelsea fighting with Jason about him directing when the cameras stop rolling to protect Mary’s relationship. Between the SURVIVOR snakebite, and the VANDERPUMP RULES finale… that “Receipts, Proof, Timeline!” thing y’all liked… Are reality show fourth walls obsolete? 🤔

Thinking about how Reagan said “The nine scariest words in the English language are ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help,’” & decades of conservatives took that to heart and dismantled everything good the government does for the people, and now they cheer this www.reddit.com/r/illinois/s...

A fun thing about my photos of Sunday’s protest getting almost 8 million views on Reddit — so many comments about a show called “The Rookie” that’s apparently been on TV since 2018 and is now most people’s point of reference for the LAPD, I guess???

Watch as LA City Council President Marqueece Harris-Dawson awkwardly tries and fails to engineer a loss of quorum as an excuse to end public comment because too many people were demanding they take action about LAPD on horseback helping ICE by brutalizing protesters at #NoKings 2.0 in Downtown LA

This morning I spoke to LA City Council about what I witnessed on October 18, at No Kings 2.0, as LAPD on horseback swept in and attacked a peaceful protest. LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell should be removed for the way his officers have handled the last few months of unrest.

Still laughing at this photo I took yesterday at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Downtown LA after #NoKings 2.0, as a Homeland Security officer watched sadly from behind the fence he built as his buddies in the LAPD got to be the ones to rough up the protesters
