Holy SHIT I RAISED $1,000 for CHIRLA TODAY! 🥹🙌😭

HEY LOS ANGELS DID I MENTION I AM THROWING AN ANTI-ICE BAKE SALE ON SUNDAY THE 8th?! From 10am - 2pm I will be slanging gluten-free and gluten-full baked goods I and a few friends make to benefit CHIR-LA!! Will also accept any donations to the cause! My goods are LEGIT and YES WINSTON WILL BE THERE!

This Catherine O’Hara news is gonna fuck me all the way up today. SHE WAS THE BEST 😭

The thing is, we’ve now spent nigh on a decade being bullied by the same sort of people who bullied me as a kid and YOU KNOW WHAT I HAVE TIME AND BRAVERY FOR NOW THAT I DID NOT THEN? Bullying the fucking bullies right the fuck BACK.

News? Bad! Winston? GOOD????

We've removed the paywall from this guide so everyone can access it. 👇 Stay safe.

Times like these are when I get PARTICULARLY SPIKY and re-pissed off that so many of my family members have chosen to and continue to be cops.

Sort of insane to have our government hostilely take over another country while threatening to do the same to another, as ICE agents murder a woman in cold blood in Minnesota, and the press secretary and others rig public events that people are somehow legally gambling on in the span of three days.

Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

This weekend’s news cycle has just been nonstop terrible. The worst of the worst. I dunno what to say about any of it, but Winston is here to provide two (2) serotonins to you each.

This entire weekend

Every excuse about why they can’t pay us is merely that: an excuse. Netflix can have BILLIONS of dollars of debt and bid TENS OF BILLIONS to buy another media company? And then another company that is ALREADY MONOPOLIZING, who just LAID OFF SO MANY PEOPLE, can attempt a HOSTILE TAKEOVER?

wow it would literally be so easy for any other, ahem, blonde pop stars whose music these fascists have used, to do the same. Just so interesting which $tar$ have spines 👀

Bari Weiss announcing her hiring at CBS News is 3…2…

Today’s the first day in a long, long time I missed Old Twitter and being Extremely Online. HOD imagine the FUN Old Us would have had with this moment!! So many LOLs, all of them actually out loud!

It was Winston’s birthday yesterday! He’s 4, but still a rascal! And also cold. So I got him a cool dude denim jacket and now he looks like he wants my lunch money.

I truly have nothing to offer the world social commentary-wise, but I do have this photo of my dog being naughty by sitting on a TABLE!!!!

The dog I am watching has so many costumes so we are having a fashion show and OH MY GOD WHO SHOULD WINNIE BE?

But she’s not a couch????

Hi guys, happy Friday. Winston is not sure who got into the yogurt container but he’s determined to find out!!!

My dog is a true master of getting treats out of people. He just looks at them with this face and the treats rain down upon him!!!

What an era of history to be watching Reds for the first time.

Cannot recommend telling off a doctor that ignored your pain for YEARS enough. Especially after a female doctor’s blatant sexism completely validates it AND locates the source of your pain in minutes.

Feels worth pointing out that I hope Bari Weiss’ reign of terror at CBS is a huge flop.

Sometimes it feels like I forgot how to do all social media when I got banned from twitter two years ago.

Welcome to the capitalist innovation museum we got - scam machine - psychosis inducing machine - weapons of mass destruction - button you push that makes the planet hotter - markets that intentionally starve people - clothes that fall apart after washing them 1 time - medicine you can’t afford

Wrote about some life things and what it feels like to be in the middle. open.substack.com/pub/alicialu...

Please help me, friends. I am notoriously bad at celebrating the big drinking holidays but this year I do believe it is imperative my dog dresses up for Halloween.

HELP I am bad at Halloween and need an ounce of joy in life WHAT SHOULD MY DOG BE FOR HALLOWEEN TO WIN THE LOCAL DOG COSTUME CONTEST?

These are precedented times and the precedent is a loud ass warning www.nytimes.com/1939/02/04/a...

wait it is ACTUALLY UNHINGED that CBS might give Bari fuuuuuuuucking Weiss editorial control over their news department!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ….!!!!!!!!!

Alright, so I've been afraid to say this out loud, but I think after today, I can say it: In the first Battle of Los Angeles, the good people of LA County have prevailed. We beat ICE back. 1/

This. 👇👇👇 JB Pritzker: "Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: Once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next?”

I wrote something about fear and facing the Big Feelings that come from doing the things you’ve long wanted and been too scared to do. There’s even a VERY EMBARRASSING VIDEO AT THE END!!!!!! open.substack.com/pub/alicialu...

He’s not Travis or Taylor, but Winston IS ALSO HAVING THE BEST DAY OF HIS LIFE TODAY (we went hiking):

Off to the mountains to rewrite my comedy pilot (an ORIGINAL IDEA) that a production company is PAYING ME TO DO so we can sell/make it! Back in September. 🥹🥰

I’m so bad at promoting the shit I do on social media anymore, but it is cool to see this video I directed for Elle UK finally out in the world. It was such a rad experience, not only to meet her, but to get so many compliments on a job well done. A fun reminder that I am dope and do dope shit.

Hey! I interviewed Winona and directed this video! 🥰

My friend ( @lutes.bsky.social) directed this, and I am VERY proud of her!!

Holy fuck, all news is either bad and/or stupid now. All of it. Wow. Truly wild to behold. What a timeline we’ve got here, eh?

@prisonculture.bsky.social and I have been encouraging people to read chapter six of our book, Let This Radicalize You, which deals with the question of "violence" in social movements. We have decided to share the chapter publicly, to offer some context and grounding for the current conversation.

I have a lot of issues with Gavin Newsom but he is calling out Trump in a way other major leaders aren’t and if he causes Trump to have a stroke I will buy him a latte

don’t forget: waymos and other robotaxis are surveillance devices on wheels that police are increasingly tapping for footage

Anyway, anybody need some new pictures of my dog?

You know, maybe if all those syphilitic old coots from the ruling classes of old had social media, this fight would be less entertaining. But probably not!

Twitter: this is how men with huge balls fight. This is what masculinity looks like Bluesky: this is the first messy breakup of pride month

Elon Musk is an unhinged white supremacist maniac and I think he deserves to be mocked and shamed for being so deeply ignorant and wrongheaded and also A DELULU LUNATIC that we all have to suffer through because he’s a billionaire with a public humiliation kink.

I came back to social media for the #METGala and I expect nothing less than IMPECCABLE TAILORING and Andre Leon Talley-sized dandy GLAMOUR!

having AI write your term paper for you isn't "useful," it's actively keeping you from learning anything—let alone facts! if you don't make your brain, A MUSCLE, do the work (ingesting and synthesizing learned information), it will ATROPHY AND DIE, leaving you as little more than a gullible husk.

Experiencing my first-ever "we were in love" heartbreak (at my! big! age! the tender embarrassment of it all!) and, folks: this shit is SAD! And full of so many, often conflicting FEELINGS? Also as an extremely snotty crier, my sinuses have been to war.
