LA. Sleep Deprived.
There is so much real news but I’m crashing the fuck out by how much men love to hate Cardi B.

I’m so irritated. They want the body type yet make jokes about how bbls are gross. Male-centered women love joining in about “being natural” and knowing how to cook and clean. I hate this shit.

I’m still hoping to be able to see it again in theaters but I’m so glad I was able to watch Sinners on the 4th of July.

It made me feel a sense of patriotism in my country and its people at a time where it is hard to feel joy.

Depending on the content of the album, people can make fair criticism on Sabrina Carpenter’s lyrics and visuals.

But I don’t get how a girl whose first single calls men “stupid”, “slow”, and “useless” is now being accused of creating a project that caters to men.

But that’s just me🤷🏻‍♀️

Growing up, there was a 50 year old book being taught to students called “How To Lie with Statistics” by Darrell Huff.

How long will we be teaching the very predictable “How to Lie with ChatGPT” book?

Even flat earthers are posting their ChatGPT “findings”. I’m so done with anti-intellectualism.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

WARNING: Someone gets shot in this video.

The second time in five years we are occupied by the military and the LAPD continues to remind everyone that they can terrorize the city all on their own.

Nothing irks me more than people who have trashed Downtown LA for years acting like they care about what happens there now. DTLA is one of my favorite places I’ve ever lived. The neighborhoods mean so much to me despite how neglected they are just down the block from luxury high rises and hotels.

This man specifically is having a lot of on-air wishes for exemption.

Exemption for the chaos and heartless “efficiency” he has seen himself, his colleagues, and so many folks online cheer Elon and the american president on for unleashing on all the other people he cared about less.

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

🚮
My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.

My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.

I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
 
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

I finally watched last week’s episode of Severance and it cannot be overstated how wonderfully they piece together storytelling on this show while leaving us relentlessly disoriented.

I couldn’t believe the episode was over when it ended. Time is a construct.

Indiscriminate mass layoffs extreme chaos and confusion is the furthest thing from efficiency and meritocracy.

Elon Musk wants to judge fed gov employees (and Americans) with data he does not know how to interpret.

I have a long road ahead as an artist but I firmly believe that the right audience will find me.

I realized one of the many reasons I loved pgLang's halftime show so much was because it's a musical theatre style marching band show with a narrator, massive color guard, greek chorus, SZA feature, with a one man band of Kendrick Lamar.

Everything about my background as an artist was delighted.
I’m rewatching and the fact Kendrick’s theme was The Great American Game and he was performing all over the board was so cool. I wish we had more overhead views.

In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse.

The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million
Louisiana coerced unhoused people into an unheated warehouse – and paid $17.5m for it
Dozens of New Orleanians were bused to a site with insufficient heating and blankets days before the city is to host the Super Bowl

A lot is happening that is genuinely scary in all the ways people used to make fun of me for being so worried about in middle school, and high school, and the past 12 years of my adulthood.

As so much swiftly starts trickling in, I realize I was not outraged enough about the war against DEIA.
