Still image from episode 14 of the max show "The Pitt" with Dr Robby and Dr King

It was a joy to spend a week in The Pitt as an MCI victim earlier this year during my hiatus. The whole experience was so positive, and the ADs did such an incredible job running the bloody ship. Peep my arm in the bottom left corner. Honored to be part of the MCU (medical cinematic universe).

I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.

A picture of Neri Alvarado, a young man, standing next to his brother, who is a young teenager. Both are smiling for the camera and wearing matching shirts. Neri has his arm around his brother. A picture of Neri's tattoo, which is an autism ribbon in rainbow colors with his brother's name "Neryelson" written on it.

NEW: @motherjones.com reports that one of the men renditioned to El Salvador is Neri Alvarado, who was working in Dallas as a baker. An ICE agent told him they were questioning all men with tattoos.

Neri has an AUTISM AWARENESS TATTOO in honor of his 15-year-old brother with autism.

I've finished every episode of Suits. What a perfect comfort show. Now I want to watch the first few seasons all over again. Mid-2010s USA Network was such a gem.

A+E Networks Rebrands As A+E Global Media, Renames Ad Sales Unit A+E Media Solutions As it prepares to deliver its virtual upfront presentation to advertisers, A+E Networks said it has rebranded itself as A+E Global Media.

“The name A+E Global Media reflects who we are today – an innovative, multiplatform content engine that reaches audiences everywhere."

...and the workers of that "content engine" unionized months ago with WGAE, but you still refuse to recognize us.

Booked until August on a show that I can disassociate into... but like, in a fun non-toxic way. Thank goodness.

I'm so so late to the Suits party, but I've made it through 6 seasons in 2 weeks. 3 more seasons plus a watch podcast AND a spin-off? What a treat

Hugely important thread for SoCal with data that counters some of the misinformation that got boosted immediately after the fires

What does it mean if I could hear the earthquake but didn't really feel it? That was kind of trippy

I wasn’t going to buy Girl Scout cookies, but then the kids started scream-singing Boom Chicka Boom in the grocery store parking lot, so I had to get the Thin Mints

And a win for LA crews! (and having 50-150 background actors employed too!)

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

#StayinLA Help Rebuild LA’s Production Industry The Palisades and Eaton Fires have deepened the crisis for LA’s film/TV workers, small businesses, and families. We need emergency incentives to bring production ...

In the wake of the fires, LA production is hurting even more than before. People can’t afford to live here if there isn’t work here.

Sign our petition at the link in bio STAYinLA.org and share #STAYinLA widely. (And thank you to hireyoungprofessionals.com for designing our campaign!)

I think it’s really important we identify the companies that are doing the right thing and reward them with our business.
