Anika Collier Navoli was at her “wits’ end.” Twitter’s safety policy team had gathered via video conference to walk through what they expected to see the next day, Jan. 6, 2021, and began to argue.
Safety policy staff had clashed repeatedly with Twitter’s management over whether to take a tougher stance on incitement to violence by Donald Trump and his legions of election deniers. She and colleagues were seeing worrying signs and feared what might happen the next day. “There might be someone getting shot tomorrow,” one employee warned, according...

Twillerama is a night of outrageous adult animation hosted by house painter Jeff Twiller and his construction worker friend Randy J. Johnson, who have secured the screening lineup after trespassing through a city dump.
(It should be said here that Twiller and Johnson are both animated characters themselves created by Morgan Miller, who has created the wrap-around segments framing the lineup selections and curated the lineup. Miller provides the voice of Twiller; Josh Kleefeld portrays Johnson and Todd Hanson of the The Onion voices himself.)
The full lineup of Twillerama is below and features Underground Film Journal faves Brian and Kevin Lonano, and Bill Plympton; plus a whole host of other great animators.

E.J. Johnson insists he didn't "feel violated" when it was publicly revealed recently that he was gay. In fact, in a new interview given to Howard Bragman on the YouTube talk show Gwissues, the 20-year-old son of basketball legend Magic Johnson said he "always wanted to come into the spotlight." "I always had dreams and plans of doing my own thing and creating my own image, so it came a little sooner than I thought it would, but this is still something I knew I would be going through and would have to experience," the New York University junior added. And while he has received a ton of public support since his sexual orientation became news, Johnson has also been the victim of...

Magic Johnson is a sports legend, an AIDS activist and apparently, a really awesome dad, too. On Monday night in L.A., Magic's 20-year-old son E.J. Johnson publicly came out as gay when he was snapped holding hands with his boyfriend. E.J.'s famous father, who has known his son was gay for several years, couldn't be any prouder or more supportive. "I love E.J. so much, that's my main man," Magic told TMZ. "I think he really wanted to be out. But he was torn. ... He just didn't know how. He just said, 'This is my moment. This is my time. I'm happy to share with the world who I am.' And I said, 'Go, E.J., go.'" "This is a good moment for us as a...

Contemplating what to get Jessica Simpson and baby Maxi? We might be able to help. E! News has come across a baby registry at Bel-Bambini (where Simpson's rumored to be registered) under the name "J. Johnson," and we think it might be for Eric Johnson's wife-to-be. So what's on the list, and when is the anticipated baby shower where you can present your awesome gift? If it is in fact Simpson's wish list (her rep had no comment), she will be forever grateful to anyone who can get her the essential bottle sleeves, rattles and burp cloths (among other necessities). But if you really wanna get on her Bff list, you can opt to drop some serious moola and purchase the $400 crib or...
