Thread on Dan Boultwood's victim who waives her anomity to talk about the experience. For those who didn't see the original reporting, this is the only significant coverage. Maddie says how she's disappointed there wasn't more public introspection and conversation over this, and she's right.

Rupert "Ripper" Giles is legitimately one of my all-time favorite television characters and I think the real secret sauce to what made that show work. His ability to ground everything while never giving up the humor and heart was a cornerstone of the show. One of the all-time great not-dad TV dads.

It's looking pretty likely my son isn't going to have school starting next Tuesday because a bunch of LA school workers are teaming up to do a strike for much-needed pay raises and support. For no reason at all, I'm also including these two images in this post.

A clip from the LAUSD website noting that the 2023-24 budget for the LAUSD, the second-largest public school district in the country, was $18.8 billion.

A clip from the LA Times noting Warner Bros. Discovery Chief Executive and renowned dipshit David Zaslav could receive $887 million in severance for his excellent leadership in coming in, wrecking shit, then selling it off.

USPS is "losing money" because people need and use it. The money allocated to it being used so handily does not mean it's broken, it means it's working. This is like saying you need to shut down a food pantry because all the food is gone. No. Wrong. That means you need more food.

Always been more of a comics reader than collector, but years 'n years ago I inherited a few copies of @stephenrbissette.bsky.social 's Taboo magazine from a friend and have always wanted the full collection. Finally pulled the trigger and found the missing issues. Great collection of gonzo comics.

I loved the Angelika film center, even worked there for a summer in college. Had no idea it was actually named after a person. Thanks for creating a haven for independent movies that also allowed a poor college kid to almost entirely live off of popcorn for a summer.
