If we come up with time travel in the next year or so, let's take out Hitler second. First thing we should do is send Hegseth back to his preferred era and war and everyone can place bets on how many minutes he lasts. And then let's never think of him ever again.

Just to be very clear, that's fucked up.

They're investigating top universities for giving American jobs to foreign workers but they're not investigating dozens of American corporations sending American jobs overseas. It's all just so transparently bullshit.

I am very excited about this! But I don't have an outlet outside and I'm also on the first floor amongst the decorative foliage, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to participate. www.latimes.com/environment/...

I don't remember Bozo on TV as a kid, but I recognized that Weeki Wachee mermaid right away. I'm sorry about your dad! Glad you got the chance to express his gratitude.

I tried to leave the house last night to go for a mall walk but none of the map apps I tried had any info about the road closures for the Hollywood Bowl, which happens almost nightly throughout every summer in LA. I wasted 45 minutes trapped in traffic when I could have just gone over the canyon.

He only ever appeared to hate creative workers and absolutely wanted them to make as little money as possible. Just astoundingly terrible at his job steering a creative ship. Never forget this little gem: deadline.com/2020/01/disc...

This turd. Absolutely tanked nonfiction TV, did his damnedest to tank scripted as well, mutilated a successful streamer, tried to end the entire concept of residuals for anyone who got them, got hammered on it repeatedly, and made bajillions doing it. Forced to walk back so many terrible plans.

Whew. I used to do this when I was a kid - cover my skinned knees or other injuries with my hand. My dad would be bellowing at me to stop crying and my mom said once that it was like I was literally trying to hide my pain from everyone. Yep. When someone acknowledges your pain, it frees you.

It doesn't have intuition or history or even the ability to look at a writer's work and say, hey, this isn't great writing so I shouldn't base my own work on it. It just absorbs everything in its path and then barfs it back out into an unrecognizable, messy, sloppy puddle. It doesn't regret.

People desperately want AI to do all the boring-ass tasks they don't want to do. That sounds amazing! But AI doesn't catch itself. It doesn't think "Oh shit, did I leave the oven on?" It's just if/then-ing into oblivion, often poorly. You have to check the work, which means you added a step.

Becca @tigerpantss.bsky.social · 28/09/2026
Lots more AI talk today than usual. Here's my take: you cannot offload ANY task to AI without checking it. My colleague asked AI to help her create an intricate spreadsheet formula for generating timecode in a TV show rundown. I thought that was one thing AI could do. Nope. She had to fix it.

I think production people who've incorporated might be into this. They frequently need to do website adjustments (adding new clips, adjusting staff, etc) as well as notarizing legal papework and minor bookkeeping. You'd probably do more website work than anything else.

So, there's a photo of Spielberg at the Lucas Museum opening party wearing a mask, and the comments are WILD. Like, who cares what this man does with his face? Wasn't even a mandate. No one else had to. He just chose to. WHO CARES??? People are still so deeply weird about covering your face.

The East Wing, the Reflecting Pool, the Kennedy Center - what landmark will fall next? Democracy? When will someone with enough power stand up and stop this? What will be the point of accumulating all that wealth if there's nothing left to spend it on? They're enshittifying enshittification.

Burnett explained that while the sketch was brilliantly written, it called for "Starlett" to "come down the stairs with the curtains just hanging" on her. Mackie, thinking the visual element could be funnier, "came up with the idea of making the dress with the curtain rod. I fell on the floor."

I DESPERATELY need your help with something, even if it’s just sharing this skeet: I’m working on a piec about the evolution of video games and the KEY to my story is a guy named Oscar Munoz who worked for Sega in the early 1990s I’ve tried everything to find him and social media is my last resort

IMO, this demonstrates the normalization of narcissism in our society. Most of the people who don't notice or care are potentially admitting they grew up with someone like that in their home and never got out. If I hadn't left home for college, I'd probably figure that's normal, too.

Thanks for reminding me I have Thin Mints in the freezer. I'll go grab them because I'm all in on this society-destruction thing. It's scary, absolutely, but I hear the cookie train has already left the station and I don't want to be another middle aged lady left behind without any cookies.

Not enough talk in my personal timeline about Steve Hilton wanting to abolish the CA DMV and move everything online (??) for counties to handle. I really need to see more of y'all just destroy this absolutely bizarre-ass idea. The DMV is fine? Almost everything is online already? Who wants this???

LA when??? Just speaking for myself, so many people in the entertainment industry (run by execs who LOVE to exploit workers) are not eligible for union membership for a variety of reasons, so we are just out here being overworked and underpaid. We need more unions!!!

Went to my first Open Doors CA event today and toured the preservation efforts at the Breed Street Shul in Boyle Heights. They hope to re-open early next year as both a synagogue and community center. Check them out at breedstreetshul dot org.
The front of the shul from the other side of the street. The name “Congregation Talmud Torah” shows over the doors.

So, FYI, you can just shut all these diet culture features off on your phone and watch and just live your life. Diet culture is patriarchy and you don't have to participate if you don't want to. Have a great weekend!

I grew up in Florida and same. Also towels in the car to dry off when you get in. There was a serious El Nino when I moved to LA in 97 and I was surprised because everyone had said how great the weather was, and I was like "this is just Florida weather???"

The phrasing she's using is wild. Like, we're already out of the game because the industry is in tatters anyway. Why would I prop up a plagiarism machine to continue tearing away the remaining bits of an industry I spent 25 years working in???

This is appropriate. When you have public antisemitic outbursts (plural), there are consequences even if you repent as Galliano seems to have done, and one of those consequences is that you forfeit your right to be the subject of a giant New York City tribute.

Local news has spent the last couple days talking about the extreme heat for the Daisy Chain Fields fest today, which is wild. Is the panic because it's a women-focused fest? Because I don't see this about Coachella, held literally in the desert every year.
