One of the funniest anecdotes about last night’s surprise screening in #Telluride: when word started to get out that it was a Nathan Fielder movie, some people were worried the audience/screening might be filmed as part of the doc. https://t.co/H7lNmM642u

He came to the Elizabeth Holmes trial in a Patagonia puffer & baseball cap. He gave a fake name. He gabbed it up with reporters.

Turns out, he's closer to Holmes than he was willing to admit.

In Central Asian nomadic culture, lifting a camel has long been a display of strength.

At the World Nomad Games, they’ve found a more animal-friendly way to keep the tradition alive: athletes compete by lifting a camel-shaped weighted model instead of an actual camel. pic.twitter.com/r2bU5xLGe8

The LATimes tries to answer who is behind the secretive multimillion-dollar campaign to crush California’s single-use plastics law

LAT:

At the new packaging coalition, one lobbyist is [], the former head of CalRecycle, who helped draft, negotiate and usher in the regulations for the single-use plastics bill. She left the waste agency in March 2024, and was quickly enveloped in scandal after accepting employment as executive director of the industry group representing plastics producers and packagers under the law.

An ethics complaint was filed against her in February 2025, and she left that group three months later. The state did not pursue the case.

But according to lobbying disclosures, she’s back trying to dismantle the law and since July of last year

NEW: Justin Szlasa exposed a double-billing scandal with LA homeless services and pressed for stronger audits. He was just demoted by an appointee of Mayor Bass, without explanation.

One official says it's part of a “cover-up” of dysfunction at LAHSA.https://t.co/dV3s6oJKhi

When we tried to audit one of the LARGEST city homelessness programs (which happened to be under the Mayor), we got blocked & our budget cut.

We later received a fraud tip in that SAME PROGRAM & launched a fraud investigation which amounted to $23 MILLION & led to an arrest. 🧵 https://t.co/9a6YQzOTMH pic.twitter.com/yBlNNWyMX7
