The Library of Congress started scanning its holding of early motion picture and broadcast radio journals in 2011, and at last the Historical Media Publications Collection is live and searchable. Go get lost! blogs.loc.gov/thesignal/20...

I know everyone is consumed with other news, but this is a big fucking deal: The Trump administration says that IUDs and the Pill are actually abortions.

Here's what USAID told the NYT about the $10m in birth control they plan to destroy.

And if nothing else, it’s long past time the City installed a monument sign in the public right of way, so fans can memorialize their visit with a selfie celebrating the preservation of the Marilyn Monroe Residence HCM #1306!

Court watch: will Marilyn Monroe's landmarked home lose protected status? If yes, what does it mean for L.A.'s 1326 HCMs? Should designation hold, what will the owners and the city do? Will they be made to restore the filled in pool? Could they sell it?

I came here to say that. For his sake I hope Karoline Leavitt tells the President to dial down the cheeto dust.

Trump looks horrible during today's press conference from the White House meeting with South Korea President Lee Jae Myung.

The orange makeup is spackled on so thick today, he reminds me of the Oompa Loompas from "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory". 🫢

Did anyone love L.A. more than Leo Politi? Maybe his friend Christine Sterling did. Come celebrate their brave advocacy, two poor dreamers who changed things for all of us, and left a map for how to make a difference in a tough city hooked on destruction.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe.

Will we listen to his words today?

Pursued relentlessly by the government of Vladimir Putin, the Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny died in prison. He left behind an account of his final years—and an admonition to his country and the world.
