Fires. The military occupation. The ongoing paramilitary occupation. Repeated attacks on peaceful demonstrations by local cops. Continued hardships as the studios don't do more production in the city. Los Angeles is struggling this year. This win means a lot.
Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.
We’re doomed.
It’s fine, he’s just got all your personal data. 💊💉
Oh boy can I concur with this. I teach an online Intro to Theatre class. I had 49 students enroll and over 30 of them ended up being ghost students. The only thing that’s gonna stop it is a recommitment to in-person education, which colleges like mine have largely abandoned.
“Massive numbers of students are going to emerge from university with degrees, and into the workforce, who are essentially illiterate…Both in the literal sense and in the sense of being historically illiterate and having no knowledge of their own culture, much less anyone else’s.”
I’m sorry but if your students use AI to write papers and you use AI to grade them zero school is happening. You are running together on a hamster wheel
I bought Twitter for $44,000,000,000 and sold it back to myself for $33,000,000,000. I have 43 kids and no friends. Everything I make explodes
What’s your stance on everything’s computer?

This—and only this—is the way that these ignorant ghouls should be interviewed. The transcript doesn’t do Michel Martin justice for how she handled him.
I’ve been feeling a particular affinity for the French these days … not just because I’ve watched Casablanca so many times lately that I know the words to the first verse of La Marseillaise forward and backward
Community college professor here, who now spends most of his grading time trying to detect if students are using AI (aka “cheating”) to do their critical thinking for them. So, yeah, this is a garbage take.
Nailed it
Tremendous new addition to the Louvre
Yeah so the Constitution isn’t really in effect right now
There was a hostile takeover of the US Treasury today by the richest man in world, but do go on about tomatoes, Mr. Speaker.
Target Margin director David Herskovits remembers his colleague Richard Foreman's silence and elisions as much as the things he did say, writing that the late auteur worked both intellectually and carnally, both instinctually and critically. (And don't miss the story about María Irene Fornés.)
Ahem. In more useful and kinder ideas, please donate to the LA LGBT Center, as they help EVERYONE in the community who needs food, medical care, temporary housing, and more. lalgbtcenter.org
The death of the irreplaceable theatrical auteur Richard Foreman last week led us back into our archives. We will be publishing more on him soon but for now, the following thread contains some choice Foreman pieces from our shelves.
Goddammit I cancelled my subscription months ago. Any way to get it to me cheap and fast, like with the other business he owns?
I remember him speaking fondly of you!
An irreplaceable giant. Acting in three of his shows and directing ten of my own at his theater between 1992 and 2003 has essentially made me the person I am today.
Aaron Judge dropping the ball in a crucial error during game five of the World Series.
If you start watching Game 5 at 10:26:37, you can watch the ball drop in New York at midnight.
It’s okay, though, because it’s for critical things like this:
This last minute was precisely what grabbed me by the throat and screamed, “you gotta put this on stage!” How she rips those notes from the bowels of the earth with her vocal backhoe. What a talent! And the leering waiter guy to her right, which Mike Rubens nailed.
This.
It’s rare to read an interview with an actor that captures the essential and mysterious artistry of the craft, but with an interviewer like MZS and a subject like Dafoe, it happens in extraordinary fashion. Must read.
This is absolutely priceless. 😂😂😂

That first one of Jim put me right back in the office and sent shivers down my spine cuz, ya know, he looks as if he had killed a man…or something like that.
