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 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.”

The LA mayoral race is a good test to see if someone who is bad at campaigning and coalition building can beat someone who is bad at being the mayor.

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.

this is your yearly reminder that Mark C. Lee brought a picture of a cow aboard STS-30 to remind him of home (he grew up on a farm in Wisconsin), resulting in this gem of a photo

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.

Lula no se merecía terminar su vida política perdiendo con un personaje tan indigno. A veces, muy pocas veces, la historia es justa.

yes, it's a particular portrait of silicon valley delusion, and one done in a way not really seen before. shows how captivating it can be despite its open manipulativeness and deceit

the conceit of the holmes doc perfectly encapsulates a very specific genre of tech brainrot. two people who have so thoroughly bought into their own narrative that they genuinely believe they can force it upon the the world if given enough time, despite all the evidence otherwise
