Shocked to learn that an unbearably dorky actor behaves like an alleged sex pest as soon as he’s around so-called alternative ladies in an environment that prizes secrecy and exclusivity!
Oh boy does this not come as a surprise either! Screenshot from LA Times: Vanessa Benton a 27 year old Black

The only other thing I’ll say here is that I worked at a record store for five years and the worst dudes were the bros and random middle aged men who assumed that tattooed alterna girls were (a Sexually available to all and sundry and (B wanted to be sexually available to THEM

I got vaccinated yesterday. I am so relieved. for my fellow asthmatics, it WAS one of the conditions asked about when I made my appointment. Meanwhile globally we are still totally fucked because of greed and shortsightedness! nytimes.com/2021/03/21/wor…
Here’s how I got an appointment: I signed up for CarbonHealth, which lists appointments for max vax sites here in LA. At like 1:07 yesterday an appointment popped up for 1:10, clearly a cancellation. If you need to get yourself or an elder vaxxed, it pays to refresh that site
But as relieved as I personally am, like, if we don’t force these companies to share the vaccine recipe and start mass producing for every country, it’s going to be meaningless in like two months. Why are we doing this to ourselves!!!

New from me and @timmarchman: a monthslong investigation on the overseas work of the anti-trafficking charity Operation Underground Railroad. We begin with the fact that one of their sources for an operation in Haiti was.... a psychic medium. vice.com/en/article/bvx…
OUR did not dispute to us that they've used a psychic named Janet as a source for this and other investigations. Instead, they defended the practice.
People who worked with OUR also disputed the claim that most of the overseas "jump team" are ex-military; one person told us that is "complete and utter bullshit." We confirmed that real estate agents, donors and other inexperienced people were among the "operators."

Cleaning up my desktop, being reminded of the truly special day when Alex Jones' lawyer gave him a copy of my book ImageImage
he didn't care for it
some poor guy on the InfoWars staff had to page through my PBS appearance to find the stills where I look maximally like a stunned deer

I’m literally a journalist, not that it matters! and I’ll stop “bullying” (publicly and clearly discussing) what you and your tragic friends are doing when it doesn’t have a chance of adding another body to the literally overflowing morgues of the place where I live Image
I barely know who this person is besides someone who does terrible tweets- what does that tell you about these parties? Also girl you’re strong enough to risk your viral load like this but having someone talk about it is bullying? Spare meeeee
What’s interesting is the weirdo artists/creatives (people who made these cities “cool” in the eyes of the soft-handed media whites) aren’t partying, really. They have a shared sense of community. Only some folks are convinced huddling around red Solo cups is worth risking lives.

While the biggest media grifter morons you know are having house parties to show how cool (?) they are:
This is real garbage shit folks Image
Personally if I’d airily spread COVID to half my social circle via boring parties trying to desperately capture some “downtown cool” you were never part of, I wouldn’t be bragging about it

Another “secret” New Years Eve party in LA, referencing Prohibition, promising masks required (sure), rapid tests (notoriously unreliable) and hand sanitizer, which we all know makes it totally safe to be in a crowded space for as long as you want. Hope it’s worth it, partiers!
On our last episode of “can you people not just open a bottle of wine on the couch for one fucking holiday without experiencing a psychic meltdown:
It is apocalyptically bad here. The numbers are insanely grim. I cannot understand what’s in the psyche of this place that’s causing people to behave this way. You are not immortal and you can get sick no matter how lux the velvet rope on the club is. google.com/amp/s/amp.theg…
