If there’s a better obituary for an evil cartoonist than an A.I. generated version of his character that fucks up the defining detail of its design, I can’t think of it. No notes. 👨🏻🍳 💋

I broke the story yesterday that masked ICE agents (not DOJ) were removing items including a personal computer from the home of Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who shot Renee Good. I have yet to see a single news outlet cover this or an elected official even acknowledge it.
NEW: These are ICE agents removing evidence from the shooter's home. They are not DOJ, they are Jonathan Ross's friends and coworkers, not DOJ.
This agent removing Ross's personal computer was reported yesterday Jan 9 for boxing in a volunteer and telling them "I'll dedicate my next arrest to you"

I teach bystander intervention for a living and have taught de-escalation to law enforcement.
Trust me when I say that bottle girls, gas station clerks, strippers, front desk employees at hotels and airports, baristas, etc. have better de-escalation skills than any cop I've ever seen.

Which canonical American authors are the public reading, and why?
To find out, we analyzed library borrowing patterns for every author in the Norton Anthology of American Literature (1945 to the Present).
Excited to share this new CHR paper & data!

23. Veronica Mars would still be putting out new seasons if the show's creator could envision a romance storyline as something other than a source of constant conflict.
What about a lot of support and a little bit of conflict, like the main character had with her dad?

Black Panther III will begin filming this summer in London instead of Atlanta. I hope Kemp and Georgian Republicans are satisfied. They killed the state's chance to be East Hollywood to suck up to AI companies and build data centers.

I called Ossoff about this yday, but I may call again today tbh. He's worried about reelection but he has to know that if he screws this up he's gonna lose us.

Readers in Arizona, Michigan, & Georgia!
Your senators have been getting a LOT of dedicated pressure to end the shutdown, without fixing healthcare.
If you have a minute, go ahead & give them a call!
Their job is to respond to constituents & they're mostly hearing from GOP voters rn.

When Trump announced his law enforcement actions in D.C., he also singled out a slew of other Democratic cities. The mayors of Baltimore, LA, Oakland, Chicago and New York say crime is down.
