At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

Why would a little boy say, “Shut the fuck up” if he wanted someone to be quiet? Was there someone in his life who maybe repeatedly said that to him? Also, where would he get the idea that Trump *isn’t* the President? Did someone also say that repeatedly to him?

"I'm your number one fan. There's nothing to worry about. You're going to be just fine. I will take good care of you. I'm your number one fan." Annie Wilkes is fun to cosplay at a horror convention. #CreepIE Will be a nice break from the rest of the world.

Listing the #cosplays that are too big for me now is nice but the weird impulse to replace them immediately is making my brain itchy.

Anyway, here's Charlie, stealing my spot on the couch, being a shrimp.

Grey and white cat, Charlie, curled up like a shrimp, and asleep.

Charlie was telling me it was time to go to sleep. Don't worry, I did not leave his paw on my eye long. Not trying to get pinkeye or anything 🤣

Me trying to relax before bed with my cat's paw on my damn eye because he has no concept of personal space.

While I’ve gratefully watched Bishop Budde's act of bravery remind us of the power of a single voice, my greatest fear is that she will be the only one of her kind; that in a few days she will prove to be an outlier, just a beautiful aberration. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/dont-let-b...

Good morning and happy Wednesday to everybody didn't vote for that fascist mouth breather and n!zi sidekick. I think I need a new scripted #horrorpodcast recommendation if anyone has one. Could be horror stories, too.

Half of my review for #thebrutalist over on #letterboxd. The rest is sorta spoilery. Trying to see all the presumptive nominees.

Image of Adrien Brody from The Brutalist holding a bouquet of flowers and another image of the movie poster with Adrien Brody surrounded by Sparks. Text in the screenshot
says
1. I can't remember the last time I watched a movie that had an intermission that wasn't on two VHS tapes.
2. Adrien Brody gives a complex and incredible performance, which couldn't have been easy for a variety of reasons.
3. Before you decide how you feel about their use of AI, read about it. I'm still not 100% on board with the use of AI in general, for pretty much any application of anything but I did read a couple articles about this movie and it's particular uses of AI and I'm not ready to dismiss this movie outright for it.

So not everything is awful. Our volunteer group had our first visit of the year at LA General Hospital last week 🫶 We go there monthly to cheer up the kiddos

America was given a choice between a lawless, amoral monster and a qualified, intelligent, joyful woman of color—and it chose the monster. We need to reckon with the reality of what that says about so many of us here. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/america-ch...

The worst part of the annual review process is the self-review. Please don't make me say nice things about what I accomplished this year. But I'll happily tell you how I failed. And also still give me a good raise. Thanks.

Speaking of #wickedmovie, here's my spoiler-free review. Go see it with your best friend 🩷💚

Image is a screenshot of a Letterboxed review of Wicked (2024) which includes a photo of Ariana Grande as Glinda and Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba. It's a five-star review and the text reads, "I will add a full review after the movie is released. Suffice it to say right now, I take back every doubt I had about Ariana Grande. Any concerns or reservations I had that this movie might let me down have been dispelled. I cannot wait to see it again. I wish I could see it with my daughter, is that is who I have seen the stage version with both times, But they are 900 mi away. It was damn near perfect.."

My sister and I are going to see #Wicked this weekend. My mom, who I am almost no contact with, can't understand why I didn't ask her to go. Apparently, she hasn't been paying attention the last seven years of me only talking to her when I have no other choice 🤷‍♀️ #toxicparent

Tow truck drivers, here's a word of advice. Don't walk into a business and say "I'm here to tow the gray Honda Fit." Maybe walk in and "Hi, did somebody hear call for AAA?" You'll cause less panic. Signed, me and my elevated blood pressure.

Sometimes you just got to take a half day at work to suit up and go visit some kids in the hospital. Today, West Coast Avengers visited CHOC for #epilepsyawarenessmonth and got to visit with awesome kiddos & a couple kids at 💜. #causeplayer #volunteerincosplay
