Part of the statement from the @transjournalists.org on reporting details of the the Charlie Kirk shooting investigation. Full statement here: www.transjournalists.org/tja-urges-ca...

In the aftermath of the killing of Charlie Kirk, @eddiekimx.bsky.social ruminated on his time at Kirk's visit to SF State in May. Why are liberals like Gavin Newsom rushing to eulogize him, sans the reality of his violent message? Free gift link: sf.gazetteer.co/liberals-are...

Evidently, early birds did not get the worm... @joshuabote.com on the latest tech x festival collab we didn't need sf.gazetteer.co/everyone-is-...

Mainstream pundits have instantly sanitized and ignored Charlie Kirk's core political project and its impacts. He has been remembered by the mainstream press as someone they merely disagreed with, a debate me-guy whose words and actions had zero consequences: www.404media.co/charlie-kirk...

i dunno what's going on with kpop because why are there two songs in the past month that interpolate 2007 pop rnb hits..........

NEW from me: Sean Parker’s latest venture is an AI character app called Cantina. To promote Cantina, he’s hiring an army of teens and paying them up to $5,000 a month to flood TikTok with AI hamster and Dobby slop—and maybe violating FTC guidelines along the way. sf.gazetteer.co/tiktok-is-be...

only good thing about the sabrina carpenter album art discourse is that it has completely taken up all the energy that people usually put into "no kink at pride" discourse around this time of year

CLARIFICATION : The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline. They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY So spread this around They can be texted. They can be called.

It’s a BAD DAY for the Bay’s tech and real estate oligarchs, and a VERY GOOD DAY for those of us who pay rent, work shifts, jump the turnstile, argue with the CalFresh guy, and wait forever for the god damn bus. Why? Because @bayareacurrent has arrived. 😈 bayareacurrent.com/why-were-lau...

watching a korean drama and one of the main characters has a circle jerks poster on his wall. awesome

The em dash supposedly being a “tell” for AI generated text does sort of give away the game on the enormous amount of work stolen from journalists and news organizations that these things were trained on

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

I spent the past month interviewing ex-employees and customers of Vinyl Me, Please, trying to understand how the beloved record club collapsed in a haze of greed, hubris, and alleged corporate malfeasance. My piece was just published over at @stereogum.bsky.social.

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.
