Across California, local elections administrators are running table-top exercises to prepare for once unthinkable threats — not from local rabble-rousers, remote cyberattackers or foreign adversaries, but their own federal government.

A year ago, Michelle Yeoh made #Oscars history when she became the first Asian woman ever to triumph in the lead actress category.
Ahead of this year's #AcademyAwards, catch up on @GlennWhipp's final predictions for who will win each category: https://t.co/GAbgFsOMii
Behold! My 2024 #Oscars menu. (Dedicated to the sadly unnominated MENUS-PLAISIRS — LES TROISGROS and THE TASTE OF THINGS; so sad not to include Breaderick Riceman and Flan Anh Hung.)
Before leaving @latimes, I was in the process of creating a choreographer series. Today, the first and only edition published! Bittersweet but ecstatic to see this profile on Sean Bankhead come to fruition. Get a deep dive into the man behind the moves: https://t.co/W4ZOGlGBBC
Witnessing the last days of Karen’s bookstore in an era when many industries including my own are changing or going away was special and heart wrenching https://t.co/mavF200yFB
Today is @Dwayne_McDuffie's birthday. He would have been 62 today, if he hadn't passed unexpectedly one day after his 49th birthday.

Dwayne was a giant.

After a rough year, “Super Mario Bros. Wonder” has done more to boost my mood than any of the self-help audio books I’ve devoured over the last 11 months:

Dispatches: In Beit El, #WestBank. After Friday prayers, Palestinians protest Israeli occupation. They sling rocks, launch fireworks. But protest is met with tear gas, flashbang and live fire. Several injur ed, maimed. Tires burn, smoke rises. Sun illuminates the rising tension.
I wrote about @riotgames and their pioneering + continued investment in esports. If you caught a glimpse of @ValorantEsports in L.A., you know what I’m talking about: Forget Harry Styles. Riot Games is one of L.A.'s biggest stars headlining the Kia Forum https://t.co/wCiEybA2ni
