25 years after its release, Mulholland Drive is not only perhaps the greatest film of the 21st century, but one of its most musically inventive. Today at the magazine, @GustavoTurnerX goes long on the music of David Lynch powmag.net/p/mulholland-driv…

hm I wonder if being able to avoid all the conditions of your own city might have any consequences on the way you run your own city. probably not though
Nithya’s right
Nithya wants to make more city workers assigned *downtown* go back to the office, in part to increase foot traffic and encourage spending at stores.
“Hey, we are going to need you to sit in traffic for 2 hours per day and burn a shit ton of gas, just so you will buy lunch downtown.”

Los Angeles, I am deeply honored to be your next mayor.
I just spoke with Mayor Bass and expressed my deepest gratitude for her leadership and decades of service. Los Angeles would not be the city it is today without her.
I love this city. I believe in its people. The work ahead will be hard, and change will take time. And together, we are going to build a future as extraordinary as the city we call home.
Thank you, LA. Let’s get to work.
Not to beat a dead horse but it’s genuinely impressive that Karen Bass managed to lose as an incumbent backed by the entire LA/CA political machine, really says it all about her performance as mayor and her campaign

Worst place to be in any sport is highest level of sub-elite; you’re exceptionally talented and have devoted years to mastering your craft but you’re acutely aware of how far you are from the real pros

amongst….everything else going on, it sure is funny how the two Democratic candidates in recent years whose primary wins provoked their rivals to wage seething, spiteful, petulant general election campaigns against them are named “Zohran Mamdani” and “Abdul El-Sayed” !!!

Machines are tools, not persons. Today, some propose granting these systems rights, or even legal personhood. Such an approach risks obscuring human responsibility and leaving those who suffer harm to confront a faceless entity.
