The district will hand out five meals to every person who shows up. Beutner called the scale of the food relief “like something out of the Guinness Book of World Records.” laist.com/latest/post/202011…
. @DotKohlhaas obtained an email sent to the LAPD's top brass, a day after officers attacked me during the Dodgers celebrations. The email details new "communications initiatives" that include: "searching for videos on social media" and "capturing crowd behavior" at protests.
A group of LAPD officers just broke my camera mic, tackled me to the ground and beat me with their batons, after I identified myself as a journalist multiple times. @LATACO

Two fantastic @Netflix recs depending on your mood: Forty Year Old Version (how have you now seen this yet?!) and His House. Really really wonderful, the both of them.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but there is no such thing as pre-existing conditions. It is an invention of healthcare capitalism. The rest of the world just calls it medical history.

This week, navigating the micro and macro alongside chronic illness kicked my ass again. I'm fucking off to imaginationland for the entire weekend. Reality not welcome. Escapism only.
