@bendreyfuss I saw Wes Bentley at the gym once; he was briefly in the Batman discussion. I benched more than him. If he’d gotten the part, guess whether I would ever shut up about benching more than Batman.
(I mean he didn’t get the part and I’m *still* telling you about it)
@RoxanneHoge Karen Bass a minute ago: “I don’t care where you’re from, when you got here, or why you’re here. You are an Angeleno, and we are gonna fight for you, and we are gonna protect you!”
I feel like the mayor should care *why* you’re here. I feel like that’s a HUGE part of the job.
@wil_da_beast630 My wife Karen would confirm this. Look how that term took off in the last 5 years. It’s a chance to be both racist & sexist with zero consequences, and boy did people fucking pounce on it.
(Also she went to high school with someone who went to jail for her son’s school shooting)
Spencer Pratt is running entirely on issues - homelessness, NGO corruption, low qualify of life. It is his opponents and critics who keep bringing up his former life in "reality TV." Shows they got nothing.
I didn't even know he was in reality TV at first.
@BillToulouse It is indeed all corrupt, but I’ll meet Bigfoot before I meet an undecided Los Angeles mayoral election voter whose mind was changed by Gavin Newsom endorsing Karen Bass.
@txsalth2o Sometimes if someone is watching content on their phone in public with the volume blaring I’ll sit right next to them and look at their phone screen, and when they react I’ll say “Well if I have to listen to it I’m gonna watch it.”
@foster_type 20 years ago Entertainment Weekly headlined a negative review of the James Woods TV drama “Shark” with “‘Shark’ Bites” instead of “‘Shark’ Weak” and I’m still not over it.
Five years ago nobody in Los Angeles was allowed to operate a sit-down restaurant, and now Los Angeles sidewalks are clogged full of entirely unlicensed and unregulated restaurants operating under popup beach canopies. Talk about range!
Hey Koreatown, who put all those sidewalk street vendors in front of your restaurants blocking customers and taking up valuable parking, killing businesses? Drivers cannot even see your restaurants now. You pay all the rent, security, and fees while Karen Bass treats you like a burnt down Palisades lot. You have to play by the rules that they write against you. It's as if she wants your business to die. Her animosity to K-town should not go unnoticed. Vote her and all these disrespectful politicians out.

@annbauerwriter@meghan_daum@spencerpratt I’m an L.A. city voter and I would enthusiastically vote for a piece of paper with the word “MAYOR” written on it over either Karen Bass or Nithya Raman. I’m happy to say that from what I’ve seen so far, Spencer Pratt seems like he’d be even better than the piece of paper.
@JoseonOne I don’t know much about soccer development; if it’s more like baseball then I see your point.
(Like, sometimes you’ll hear about a guy who never touched a football or a basketball until he was 16 but now he’s in the NFL or the NBA. Nothing like that would ever happen in MLB)
