checking out the CA gov debate. Some of these people are really bad at answering questions about their own policies, and it's embarrassing. Have a policy and push it!

My cousin's kid is getting married in Philly in November. I can't WAIT to see what's going on with airlines by then.

LIstened to this on my walk today and I wish these dudes like Ferriss actually knew some fat people. Like, I am out here in the world, a size 16, doing most of the stuff they talk about in their diets, and I am STILL FAT. A lot of us are. Like, broaden your horizons, rich bros. Leave your bubbles!

This influential L.A. collector bought the artists no one else would. The art world is finally catching up Native Angeleno Eileen Harris Norton's seminal collection of artwork is on view through August at Hauser & Wirth in downtown L.A. Few people have done more than Norton to shape city's art scene over the last 50 years.

That’s wild! What a waste!

There are so many here in Hollywood. I always wonder how many people are actually living in them. Vast chunks of Sunset strip malls were torn down during the pandemic and replaced with work/live apartment buildings no one can afford.

It was horrible. I live alone and was very dedicated to not getting sick, especially once I was laid off, so I just stayed home as much as possible, but I didn't touch another living thing for 2.5 years. I don't have close connections with family, so no one was checking on me. It changed me!

Listen, I LOVE a superhero movie. They're fun! Silly costumes, plot lines, fighty fight. I see all of them. You know what I'm not as into? Soaps. I've walked away from so many TV shows when they shift from drama to soap. Please do not "And that's what you missed on Glee" my superhero movies.

it does! Thanks! The reviews I found online were middling, but I will try again. They're about to raise my rate for no reason, so I'm going to have to switch things up.

Bluesky is not really heavily populated with west coasters, is it?

I don't like autopaying bills, but I decided I was willing to try it with ATT to see how it goes because they offer a discount. I just tried to sign up and their website kept logging me out, so now I'm leery again.

I know it'll never happen, but I would really like it if political candidates would text me from the same official number every time.

The lil bump on my nose I had biopsied a few weeks ago turned out to be benign, and it's great to get good news for a change! Happy weekend, all!

I recently discovered that an apt bldg near me has their own Amazon locker setup and I had no idea they was a thing. Are they sponsored? That seems really expensive to me.

I've been applying to jobs off and on since 2020. I've revamped my resume multiple times. Made connections. Built up a following on LinkedIn. Networked. Tracked companies. Learned new skills. And I'm lucky to be working since so many aren't. But yikes. I have no idea what's next.

I'm 52, single. I live alone and have worked in the nonfiction side of entertainment for my entire career. I am currently working at a prodco I worked at in 2012, at the same level, for almost the same pay as back then. I think this is it? I'm terrified. What do we do when the jobs don't want us?

Absolutely horrific story. I hope this guy gets the book thrown at him.

Cool. A whole new boatload of opportunities to ask him where Shelly Miscavige is.

Quote post with something good that lasted longer than the Confederacy (1861-1865)

I have 2 pairs of the same sandals (gold pair and black pair) I found at Nordstrom Rack back in like 2018 that are amazingly comfortable and repairable, so I'm still wearing them regularly.

TFW you once sent money on Venmo to a woman who turned out to be a narcissist so now you're stuck seeing every single one of her transactions forever.

Saw a woman on Threads this evening say that she believed it was possible to recover from C-PTSD but only with Jesus' help, and wow, that is an ugly, grim thing to say. I appreciate that it gave you lots of hope, lady, but you aren't the only person in pain in the world.

It takes a hell of a lot of chutzpah to Catholic-splain at the Pope. Like, go boldly, my dude. Def do not back down for any reason.

Hollywood workers are absolutely desperate for work. I know people who haven't worked in TV in YEARS. Some haven't worked at all. Everyone is terrified of the mergers killing what's left of the business. It's a terrifying time. But Hollywood is NOT a union town. If it was we'd be less worried.

BSky post from raxkingisdead dot bsky dot social: pulitzer grade journalism to assign the clavicular interview to a man who looks like that lmao post is a repost of a clip from the 60 Minutes Australia interview with Clavicular by theserfstv dot bsky dot social which says: Imagine dedicating your life to incel looksmaxxing so much that you've smashed yourself in the face with a hammer only to have a regular reporter from 60 Minutes Australia complete outmog you. (Clavicular eventually walked off the interview). The interview is paused on the reporter, who looks a little bit like if Eric Dane and Matthew McConaughey had an absurdly attractive baby.

I paused it on the hot guy so you don't even have to watch the video, with alt text.

Oh, it's BAD bad, huh?

I just heard the rumble of thunder here in Hollywood! It's a magical time.

Are we all rallying behind Becerra now?? I haven’t done much research on him, but I am hearing good things.

I am excited to see how thoroughly across the globe any contact at all with our govt will equal an immediate collapse of local support. I know that's not quite what happened here, but still. It's gonna be wild to watch the anti-Midas Touch effect happen.

Today in "I am old but sometimes enjoy Couchella": I thought the Strokes lead singer was wearing a Prime t shirt (which struck me as super odd) but it says crime. Whew.

Ok, I’ve reached the point where I has to charge my phone twice a day, so I guess it’s time to upgrade. Booo!! It works fine. It’s just 5 years old. I could have the battery replaced, I guess. I need to look into that.
