Comics retailing legend Greg Ketter standing up to ICE in Minneapolis. Yes, that's tear gas. He's 70 years old.
I interviewed the Mexican American skaters from El Paso, Texas who appear in ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER. For LA Timesβ De Los, we talked about their experience working on a major film and collaborating with PTA, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Benicio del Toro: www.latimes.com/delos/story/...

Youβll notice that new developments in generative AI are always accompanied by new ways of depicting women without their consentβundermining their autonomy and harassing themβalmost like itβs a pillar of the technology and its evolution
I hope you all read this from me.
Omg now I'm laughing again! This is a gift that keeps on giving! π€£π€£π€£
This is incredibly beautiful storytelling.
Another thing to mention for people who don't live in LA.
Most of LA is very chill and peaceful right now. There's a huge Pride fest going on, countless farmer's markets, tourists walking around, families at the parks, people walking their dogs.
It's a big place.
Her name is Rosie: "A lot of vendors are undocumented and can't be here today. So those of us who can, we gotta show up"
i donβt know what to say about the images coming out of LA right now. but in case you need it, hereβs a reminder that out in the streets, only water goes in your eyes. flush with water. take your clothes off when you get home & take a cool shower, wash yourself with dish soap a few times. godspeed.
Hahaha! I'm stealing that one! ππ·
Voiced by Ben Schwartz?! Omg! I'm going to believe we're heading towards a Jaxxon renaissance!
Did someone say jizz? Hit it, Figrin D'an!
The new Neil Halloran documentary on Smallpox has completely changed how I see the RFK Jr. version of the world. Neil (softly) argues that realizing that disease isn't the fault of the sick /or/ the fault of the Gods ushered in a new future where we felt the authority to care for each other.
βThe Empire is like America ten years from now; after: Nixonian gangsters assassinated the emperor and were elected to power in a rigged election; created civil disorder by instigating race riotsβ¦Then the people were exploited with high taxes, utility and transport costs..." - George Lucas, 1974
The choice to fixate on young girls and dolls is not only creepy, but as this writer states, "he casts those Americans who would complain about the economic pain that he is inflicting on them as feminine and hence as contemptible, deserving no more respect than spoiled children."
"For all the people in the comments saying, 'Why can't you talk about Star Wars without making it political?' Save it. Andor is not being subtle. Star Wars as a whole has never been subtle."
Alex continues to not mince words and knocking these reviews out of the park. Bravo, my friend.
The Mexican Zoot suit, or Pachuco, was brought into the 21st century last night at the 2025 Met Gala. The suit is known as an act of resistance and βwas an open rejection of the moral codes propagated by sanctimonious white middle-class Americans.β
"Starkβs team found that not only were Ramosβ vocal tissues healthy, but he was also moving structures in his larynx in ways that clean singers usually donβt and incorporating other structures that arenβt typically associated with singing." The endoscopy video is fascinating to watch!
Monday.
Words to live by.
RFK Jr. said autism "destroys" children and families. Autistic people beg to differ.
I'm so grateful to the people who talked to me and my colleagues β and to the literally 200+ more people who offered to share their stories.
I hope you'll read to the end for a mic drop of a final quote.
Fun conversation from a video podcast recording:
Me: I'm trying to figure out why I'm more blue today
My co-host: Probably the state of the world
Me: I meant my lighting, but you are absolutely correct
Autism is genetic, runs in families, and is a natural & healthy part of human neurodiversity.
There is no βepidemicβ.
The numbers of young ppl identified as Autistic has increased with the active efforts to identify Autistic children younger β¦
itβs a phenomenon called #AutismAwareness.
financial advice in a weird time:
-- develop a plan

-- yes those are Terry Benedict's casinos
-- get your wife back
-- one of the friends should be Don Cheadle btw
