Just a bunch of Bengali Muslim girls in 1995. (I’m the girl in the big white Quincenera dress.) Ramadan Mubarak!

And it looks like the DOJ’s antitrust case against Live Nation is still on…https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-03-13/live-nation-loses-bid-to-toss-doj-antitrust-case

Bawling at the end of Anora was not prepared for this.

I would like to read a 10,000 word essay on the fashion of this year’s Oscars and what it reveals about the state of the country.

For companies who used AI to screen job candidates and eventually decided to SWITCH back to screening manually: what happened?

My mother who is a VA doc got this e-mail. Not sure people realize how many federal government employees perform critical services. www.npr.org/2025/02/23/n...

I am a lot more high-strung/stressed/prepared for natural or manmade disasters than the Amrita in White Lotus….

Oh you know I love a good vibe shift.

There’s a small group of people who I trust to report thoroughly on this crash. Jon and his team are outstanding.

Can’t imagine what it must be like to be a family member of one of the passengers on that jet right now. Truly devastating beyond words.

Newly sworn-in Transportation Sec Sean Duffy says he’s currently at FAA HQ.

Water temperatures in the Potomac River at this time of night is estimated to be about 35 degrees, Fox 5 DC reports. Meaning it’s very unlikely most of the 60+ passengers are still alive.

Is that rain I see?

CAMP LA is providing free vet care to the pets of evacuees of the LA fires, including fire-related injuries (burns, smoke inhalation), medication refills, and exams.

Holy crap this girl saved Kurt Cobain’s daughter’s cat from the Palisades fire due to a Nextdoor post.

Going to start a support group for people who only live 1-2 blocks away from a red flag/evacuation warning zone. Let’s bond over our half-packed go bags and our obsessive checking of the Watch Duty app.

Seriously…why is the only episode of Magic School Bus that anyone remembers the one where Carlos gets sick and the entire class takes a field trip into his body?

If LA does NYC-style congestion pricing, I imagine it’ll hit working and middle class commuters who live outside the city (i.e. the Valley) the hardest. Most will just pay the toll. A 30-40 minute drive from Van Nuys to West LA is equal to 2 hrs (and 3 transfers!) on public transit.

For all those interested in live music this write up by Amrita Khalid on Live Nation is very insightful. I highly recommend it and if you are not already, I'd suggest subscribing to Sherwood newsletters. sherwood.news/business/its...

From $70 parking to $20 lawn chair rentals, here’s how Live Nation has made the concert experience more expensive. My first piece for @sherwoodnews.bsky.social sherwood.news/business/its...

I could not sit silent while an elected official who spreads hate & lies that are getting trans people killed pretends to care about the future of the Internet. So I spoke up during Rep Nancy Mace's speech at the Project Liberty Summit & I would do it again www.fightforthefuture.org/news/2024-11...

Any petite women out there weighing whether to purchase a Cyber Truck?

Easily my favorite Pitchfork review, cheers to the total asshole who penned this pitchfork.com/reviews/albu...

Please read this testimony I shared with @BtSIsrael years ago. https://www.breakingthesilence.org.il/testimonies/database/429208

It’s a HOT POD collab! Ariel Shapiro and I dived into WNYC’s recent layoffs, its decision to sunset Death, Sex and Money at the end of 2023, and its plans for WNYC Studios. www.theverge.com/2023/10/11/2...

I swear I think half the things Musk tweets is just his way of getting revenge on tech reporters.

“Taken out of context” Oh do tell me how poor little Alice was taken out of context!

you're hosting a business conference and a bunch of dudes show up yelling the N-word do you: (a) kick them out immediately and reassure attendees that you're taking all reasonable measures to keep them safe, or (b) talk about how you want to someday build tools for attendees to protect themselves

So much for Bluesky’s “utopian” reputation. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/scotthirleman_hey-jay-graber-paul-frazee-emily-liu-rose-activity-7085339319925633024-uLEw

It looks like Indiana Jones beat out Sound of Freedom for the past couple of days. Guess all those free tickets funded by GOP groups is starting to run out. https://www.boxofficemojo.com/?ref_=bo_nb_fr_mojologo

The average American in the summer of ‘23.

Don’t got no time for Bluesky, sorry. Brain can only think in 3 platforms at a time.

So Threads is like Twitter, but instead of media and famous people it’s…your friends’ dogs, IG hotties, and all the guys you never went on a third date with?

New foster kittens just dropped. Meet Comet and Midnight.

Got the book of the summer. Don’t have to flip too many pages to get to the juicy parts because the juice is pretty much everywhere.

iHeartMedia told workers not to use ChatGPT this week, according to an internal memo I obtained. It joins Apple, Samsung, Verizon and other companies that are banning the chatbot due to fear of IP leaks.

Zoe was annoyed by the foster kitten at first. Now she’s just straight up using her as an arm rest.

Another day another foster kitten

My two favorite content creators are, of course, Carrie Fisher and Steven Spielberg.

This is funny because I literally live 3 miles away from their corporate offices in Culver City.

And sometimes your life can change forever in a heartbeat.

Was gonna go to the Barbie Rave, decided to rave with my foster kitten instead.

From the SAG-AFTRA board’s statement on the strike authorization vote: https://deadline.com/2023/05/sag-aftra-strike-authorization-vote-membership-1235371123/amp/

MTG was mean to Lauren Boebart FIRST.

Are we back in 2014?

It’s cool, Jimmy Finkstein likely won’t catch on to Bluesky until about 2035 or so.

Dude I can’t.

Tough crowd.
