I've watched thousands of videos from the Jan. 6 riot as part of NPR's reporting and archive project on that day. Here are some of the lesser known videos that have really stuck with me. 🧵

my saddest sheeee-ittt ever 🕊️

i directed the last segment of this film called THE ELEPHANT. it comes out TOMORROW, fri dec 19th, on adult swim... and then landing on HBO MAX the next day, sat dec 20th. i found it really difficult to make. there's also a BTS that airs with it, i think. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tli7...

1984 Fleer baseball style...

For a limited time, Jesse Moynihan’s masterpiece short Jesus 2 is on YouTube. If you haven’t seen it, now’s your chance, put it on the biggest screen you have and turn off all the lights! youtu.be/fkFzo6Y8C20

“All they do is complain” complains the guy who complains about everything all the time

Amid ICE attacks, L.A. community orgs call on the Dodgers not to accept a White House visit.

You're talking about the evil Empire of the Dodgers and I'm talking about the PEOPLE OF LA finding a reason to celebrate.

Dodgers offense showing up

millions of Americans are about to go hungry by the way

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase. The President is building an army to attack his own country.

How is this real??

Udon Nou, who has noodles for brains, is a mascot from Kagawa Prefecture. He was handing out certificates to winners at this year’s Yuruverse mascot popularity contest (having won in 2023).

COLLINS: So you're telling me you're willing to vote no every time? BERNIE SANDERS: Damn right

everyone donate $23 if u ever defended Conforto

Wait. Freddie Freeman’s aunt is on Season 2 of Golden Bachelor?? Awesome!

lolol

the bat moved like a high school Peter Pan production's 1st rehearsal

I haven’t seen anyone mention it yet so I’ll say that I really like the movie Downhill Racer

Adjusted for inflation Spirited Away cost $22 million to make. The Triplets of Belleville cost $16.5 million, Cartoon Saloon's Wolfwalkers cost $14.28 million, and Oscar winner Flow cost only $4 million. These critically acclaimed, made by real people films, cost less than this pile of actual vomit.

Really excited that HILL TO DIE ON is out! This is an amazing song that Rebecca Sugar wrote for AJ GOES TO THE DOG PARK. It was so much fun to collaborate with Rebecca and an incredible team on this music video. The full album comes out August 29 and it’s glorious!

Heyyyyyyyy Kermie, whatcha doin Kermie?

This is a picture of him seeing his old friend, a trash can

The sound bath garden from the latest Alan Partridge in the Oasthouse is real! (Melaniessackinteriors)

40 new episodes of Kiff (the show I work on) just dropped on Disney plus. Check em out!

We can think of our brain as anything, really.

I can’t even. I used to teach ESL at Oxnard Adult School. So many of my hardworking students worked all day and came to school to learn English at night. I wish nothing but the worst for these cowards

ICE's average annual budget through FY 2029 is now going to be $27.6 billion, which makes it a higher-funded agency than the FBI, ATF, DEA, U.S. Marshals Service, and Bureau of Prisons combined. We are looking at a level of federal law enforcement in communities not seen in generations.

North Hollywood mural lauds Dodgers' Kiké Hernández 'for standing up for what is right'

RIP legend. #CobraForever

It’s literally everyone but Conforto lol

The protestors I spoke with at Dodger Stadium today are convinced that ICE did this today to intimidate the team to stay silent after the team announced last night it would unveil an initiative to help immigrant communities later today.

LA…

The entire plot of Andor S2 is about the Empire creating a bloody civil disturbance and then blaming the resulting violence on the previously peaceful protestors.

long live Los Angeles
