Hard to imagine a better example of damning with faint praise than “it’s the best Jurassic World movie”

Extremely depressing that objectively superior SecDef is the one who went AWOL for a week and failed to inform POTUS that he was getting cancer treatment

Lending his credibility to The Late Great Planet Earth was Orson Welles’ greatest sin.

People who lose their mind over chemtrails are totally cool with this

Weird to hear LA local news talking about how things stopped being peaceful at 4.30pm and I’m looking at photos of tear gas from 4.15

So far, the “resistance” from Los Angeles’ mayor has been to close the city’s downtown at 8pm every night, guarded by cops in riot gear banking unlimited overtime, who’ve probably slept for two hours this week. Surely, this is sustainable!

I love those record store trips where i immediately think, “someone with taste similar to mine has recently died, or is facing financial hardship.”

Pour one out for all the Angelenos who are fans of hockey and democracy, they never thought they’d have to choose.

The Dodgers return from the road on Friday for back-to-back series against NL West rivals who are both within one game of taking the division lead. I’m sure capacity crowds getting out of Dodger Stadium will help keep things from escalating in DTLA!

I love reading serious stories about guys who believe AGI is real, it feels like a bunch of millionaires plotting to find and capture Santa Claus

Would be cool if Los Angeles becomes the first American city to repel military invasion in defense of something other than slavery

LA curfew has crippled local public transit, shutting down Union Station (!) with about two hours’ notice. It cannot be overstated just how severely Karen Bass has failed to rise to this occasion.

I love the 3rd amendment and all, but as an Angeleno who rents their home — like most Angelenos — I wish they’d worded it a little differently

I love the thought of Santa Ana PD calling for interagency support and Huntington Beach being like, “sorry, LA already invited us to terrorize protestors”

However much coverage we see of the president deploying the military to Los Angeles to stare down a few hundred protestors, it won’t be enough. This is fucking madness.

Very excited for tomorrow, my first time working my normal day job in a city under military occupation.

I know New York City harbors an irrational hatred of Los Angeles, but if their city was under siege during the Oscars, someone on the stage would at least mention it #tonys

Pretty sure LAPD pushed the protestors back just to make sure there aren’t a bunch of footage of them doing violence in front of this Barbara Kruger piece

“Buried his first wife at a golf course” would be the absolute weirdest thing about 99.9999% of people but most people have totally forgotten about it

I know I sound like one of those Enlightened Cringe straight guys who are like, “you gay dudes are lucky, you don’t have to deal with women,” but… Why the fuck would anyone without sexual desire choose to add it to their life? Not wanting to have sex sounds AWESOME

There are two ‘90s monster movies I revisit every few years, and every time I think, “this is a remarkably bad movie.” When it’s Emmerich’s Godzilla, I smile and laugh; when it’s Alien 3, I frown and shake my head.

I was not expecting that little treat at the end of the Andor credits, even though it felt extremely obvious the moment it hit.

They just kind of snuck it by us, but no Star Wars character has had more live action screen time than Cassian Andor.
