Game critic @Toddmartens takes a look at how internet culture, GameStop nostalgia and more intersected to create a dizzyingly complicated battle between hedge funds and retail investors latimes.com/entertainment-…
It's one thing to think the revolution will not be be televised, but it's a whole other challenge when it's memed and gamified, says @Toddmartens latimes.com/entertainment-…
Column: It’s been hard to escape hearing about GameStop, says business columnist @hiltzikm.

From columnist @GustavoArellano:

"Papi wasn’t a full-on pandejo (the Mexican version of a covidiot). Any time he messed up or babbled nonsense, I put him in his place, and he would stay there.

"For a while, at least."

"Part of the problem early on was that the coronavirus was opaque to him. Through the summer, Papi personally knew no one who had contracted the coronavirus." latimes.com/california/sto… Image

Death Valley, the Central Valley, Silicon Valley — meh.

@Patt_Morrison is here to talk about the Valley.

latimes.com/california/sto…
Here, there’s only the Valley.

The San Fernando Valley, for way too long the Rodney Dangerfield, the red-haired stepchild of Los Angeles.

latimes.com/california/sto… Image
Anywhere else, the Valley — with its million and a half people in its 250-ish square miles — would be the massive star at the center of its own civic solar system.

SpaceX plans to launch a crew of only private astronauts into orbit — the world’s first such mission.

Two of the seats on the flight will be offered as prizes. @smasunaga reports: latimes.com/business/story…
How to win a seat?

People who donate at least $10 to St. Jude this month will be entered in a sweepstakes for one of the seats.

Entrepreneurs who create an online store through Shift4Shop and post about it on social media will compete for the other. latimes.com/business/story…
As SpaceX began work on its Starship Mars spacecraft, it developed strong interest in paying for that project by offering space tourism.

It already has competition in that sphere: Multiple companies have begun accepting down payments for tourist flights. latimes.com/business/story…

Days after anti-vaccination and far-right protesters disrupted operations at the Dodger Stadium vaccination sites, Los Angeles Police Chief Michel Moore on Tuesday said any such protests in the future would be met with quick arrests.

latimes.com/california/sto…
“Our action is to be immediate and swift in the sense of holding them accountable for that unlawful activity,” Moore said during a virtual meeting of the Police Commission in the morning.

latimes.com/california/sto…
Protests will be confined to an area near the stadium’s entrance in an effort to balance people’s 1st Amendment rights with the need to keep the vaccination site operating, Moore said. latimes.com/california/sto…
