My thanks to @malcolmvenable.bsky.social & @yeshacallahan.bsky.social at BET for such an amazing interview!!! #CleanSlate drops THIS THURSDAY on @primevideo.bsky.social 🧼🙏🏾 www.bet.com/article/qjt3...

Kinda wild that birth certificates and social security cards aren't accessible digitally in 2025 and after an emergency you gotta think about replacing some cardboard cutouts??

Imagine defending insurance companies who refused to comply with consumer friendly protections, and championing mega rich developers while blaming leaders who've spent decades in public service. Capitalism has scrambled y'alls brains so good you should come with bacon and toast.

Looked out the window this morning like, would not be surprised at all if Godzilla started stomping his ass down the street 😩

Few things irriate me more than "I called and you didn't answer" as an indictment. I wasn't available. And I don't work for you. I'll get back when works for ME; until then you'll have to be a big girl and cope on your big adult ass own. K?

TCA EOY Spotlight: "I liked how this explores the tensions between the queer subtext in #Ripley vs the portrayal by a queer man who wanted to sidestep rote, predictable investigations of representation + identity politics," says @malcolmvenable.bsky.social . www.televisionacademy.com/features/new...

We once again invited TCA members to select their favorite article from the past 12 months. This list represents a wide swath of journalism and criticism, and spotlights an impressive range of television, from long-running series to the latest releases. 👇 www.tvcritics.org/end-of-year-...

Missed my connecting flight at O'Hare chasing down some Garrett's popcorn. That $10 tin of cheese and caramel ended up costing an hour delay, $125 rental car and a 90 minute drive smh

Haven't seen a publicist crash out this hard since Lizzie Grubman ran over them people in the Hamptons that time

Unapologetically held up the queue at Ralph's trying to redeem a $2 coupon for coffee. My gran is smiling down at me from heaven, I can feel it

Would love to see streamers add more show details in-app -- digital liner notes if you will.

No one, and I do mean not a single soul on the whole globe, is more unhurried than a pedestrian in a los angeles crosswalk. Glaciers will melt, pyramids erected, continents shift by the time they make it across

Just hit play on the new Sterling K Brown/Dan Fogleman series and my first thought was "i wonder how soon we're gonna see him shirtless"...or maybe they're deliberately avoiding that in this one? Minute one. He's topless in his drawls in the first minute. Not a complaint! IJS 😂🤷🏾‍♂️

When she’s right she’s right

I’d like to see more major-media reports on how the involvement of Elon Musk with a) the Presidential Transition, b) the House Republican Conference, c) the Senate Republican Conference, and d) lobbyists is already unlike anything America has ever seen with a non-government adviser. 100% horrifying.

One of the best life hacks for living in LA is to do all your errands at off-peak/random hours if you're able; grocery runs at 11 am Tuesday, dry cleaning 10 am Wed, etc. The only wrinkle is literally wrinkles: this is also when elderly ppl be out and they are soooo slow bless their hearts lol

We really gotta start asking ppl "what qualifications/expertise do you have on this topic that informs this opinion?" Cause folk just be saying anything with a straight face

Feeling like the best way to describe this current moment in culture is the post-representation age, and I'm wrapping my head around the implications of what that means going forward

Trekked to what felt like the edge of time to get two pies from here. I could smell the butter and spices in the air: each of them weighs like 3 pounds and they keep orders in a handwritten binder! This that Big Momma type pie sure to immediately give early onset diabetes. I'm here for it #southLA

Please realize that all of America is now merely a frog in a pot just starting to be brought to boil by Donald Trump and his lackeys. The whole purpose here is to get us to accede to each step in our own destruction without realizing exactly what's happening until it's too late for us to stop it.

I've been talking w friends & fam for 2 yrs about crafting an exit plan before it gets to a point where we can't leave, and I always imagined that scenario as govt mandated. But last night it hit me: what if, after they wreck the economy, you can't afford a flight out? So plausible it's terrifying.

To the left, to the left/everything you own in a box to the left

Oh great, rain in LA: lemme add another whole hour to the commute time today 😩

When you cut your am workout to make a meeting/call in time but then it's canceled

For a country that loves to shout, “We’re No. 1!” we’re woefully behind the rest of the world when it comes to electing female leaders. Throw a dart anywhere on a world map and she’s there, leading nations that Americans often label as inferior or intolerant. www.latimes.com/politics/sto...

Recently visited the #GreysAnatomy set to have Debbie Allen, Chandra Wilson, Kim Raver and Chris Carmack show fans their most unforgettable moments on set. See the video here 😉 www.shondaland.com/shondaland-s...

Hey! I'm Malcolm, entertainment journalist, writer, and content creator in LA. I post links to work I've done, stories I like, goofy & serious musings about life/culture (especially in LA) and the occasional terrible dad joke 😉☮️
