I attempted to go to an ICE patrol training here in LA this morning and they had to turn most of us away because of capacity issues and even as I was leaving I saw a ton more folks showing up

so that’s how well their attempts to scare everyone away are going, even in the face of murder

"It's been awesome following Amanda Arcuri's career from her teen drama days to network TV (as #SheriffCountry's Skye), and I'm so glad she was my first Emmy Magazine interview."

How Rob Reiner became anti-Prop. 8 kingpin Rob Reiner reflects on the critical role he played in getting California's gay marriage ban overturned.

As we mourn Rob Reiner, don’t skip this: he was, pretty much, personally responsible for overturning California’s Prop 8 banning same sex marriage.

raise your hand if you're not in NYC but you're following the mayoral election out of a desperate need to believe that good things are possible

Some advice on activism and feeling less helpless:

You probably cannot make a big change by yourself. That's okay. Find a thing you can do--either joining an existing thing or starting something small that you can sustain with resources you have--and start there.

Okay hear me out, instead
of springing forward an hour, what if we did four years.

Yes. People who don’t want to do anything, constantly critiquing the actions of folks who are doing something.

Sit in silence, then. Stop annoying us. We’re busy.

Welp. I've been laid off.

I'm so proud of my work at HuffPost. But I want to give a special shout out to my Culture crew @tarynitup.bsky.social, @marinafang.bsky.social, Njera Jenkins and Erin Evans for holding us down. It's rare to be on a team with all women of color. We were amazing together.

I’m so so sorry Candice - I know our paths never directly crossed at work, but I’ve loved reading your culture coverage for years. Any pub would be lucky to get you next!

I have a little plea and it's this: please keep posting about things that aren't The Horrors. I am not saying to not look at or be informed about The Horrors. What I am sayingβ€”what I am genuinely kind of begging you to doβ€”is keep posting about books and movies and sunsets and pets and joy. Please.

I am not saying things are going to be fine.

I am saying, find a thing to do that will put a little more hope in the world, however small.

Thinking about tomorrow and one thing I'm going to do (obviously, you do you) is spend the day fueling myself with creative pursuits. Creating things that I enjoy, rather than staring at something I hate.
