Not even a week ago, we started a movement to save Dogs Playing for Life for the shelter dogs of Los Angeles. We showed you what’s at stake. We built savedpfl.org. We asked for your help. And LA stepped up. 🎯 Millions of impressions 🎯 Thousands of comments 🎯 Hundreds of you at City Hall on April 24 and 27 🎯 Other LA creators making their own videos. The Council is paying attention. But our work isn’t done. We can’t stop until the LA City Council fully restores DPFL funding. The Budget & Finance Committee finalizes its recommendations by May 15. TODAY: pick up the phone and call your councilmember. 🚨 If you live in CD1, CD3, CD5, CD10, or CD15 — your councilmember sits on the Budget & Finance Committee. Your call has the most weight in the entire city right now. CD1 (Eunisses Hernandez) — Highland Park, Echo Park, Chinatown, Lincoln Heights, Pico-Union, Cypress Park, Glassell Park CD3 (Bob Blumenfield) — Reseda, Tarzana, Encino, Canoga Park, West Hills, Winnetka CD5 (Katy Yaroslavsky, COMMITTEE CHAIR) — Westwood, Beverly Grove, Fairfax, Pico-Robertson, Bel Air, Brentwood, Century City CD10 (Heather Hutt) — Mid-City, West Adams, Crenshaw, Leimert Park, Baldwin Hills, Jefferson Park CD15 (Tim McOsker) — San Pedro, Wilmington, Watts, Harbor Gateway Phone numbers + full script + everything else: savedpfl.org Not in those 5 districts? Your call still counts. Your councilmember votes on the final budget in early June. Find yours at savedpfl.org. The dogs can’t call. We can. #savedpfl#LAanimalservices #humanela

Today is the day.
At 3:30 PM, the LA City Council Budget Committee hears in-person pubic comment to keep funding Dogs Playing for Life —the only structured time outside their kennels that many LA shelter dogs ever get.
Ruby is a 3-year-old at the city’s Chesterfield Square shelter. She’s been there for 129 days. Her only breaks from that concrete kennel are the playgroups DPFL brings —running, playing, being a dog with other dogs.
The Mayor’s proposed budget eliminates DPFL funding entirely. On July 1, Ruby’s only outside time disappears.
But the Council can stop this.
3 ways to act:
SHOW UP — City Hall, Council Chamber Room 340. Hearing starts 3:30 PM. Arrive by 2:30 PM to make sure you get a seat to speak.
SUBMIT a written comment at savedpfl.org
EMAIL your councilmember. Tell them: restore the DPFL contract.
5 minutes of your day. Thousands of LA shelter dogs counting on us.
Ruby is counting on us.

ADOPT ME, I’m Cleopatra
Girl, 3yo
Large

Yes… I know.
I’m beauty, I’m grace… and sometimes I’m upside down with my tongue out.

I didn’t exactly have a glamorous start. I came in as a stray to South LA Animal Shelter and ended up on the list no dog wants to be on… but some really kind humans believed in me, and now I’m here — ready for my real life to start.

And let me tell you… I have so much life to give.
I’m a goofy, affectionate, slightly dramatic (in a cute way) girl who lives for:
– belly rubs (I will fully roll over for them)
– peanut butter (say less)
– walks, hikes, and being out in the world with you

I’ve got my favorite spots too… Playa Vista Bluffs, Ballona Creek, Westridge. I’m kind of an LA girl.

I’ve joined pack walks with other male dogs my size and really enjoyed them.
I like being part of things and feel happiest when I have someone to follow and trust.

I’m also a smart girl. I know sit, down, wait, take it, place… and I’m always down to learn more (especially if snacks are involved).
At home, I’m super respectful:
– fully potty trained (not one accident, thank you very much)
– not destructive at all
– I sleep on my bed… unless I sneak onto the couch (I get down very fast, I promise)

I’m not a crate girl (it makes me feel a little trapped!) but honestly, I don’t need it

I’ve got a playful side too… rope toys, squeaky toys, and for some reason… cat toys?? obsessed.

On walks, I’ve got nice manners, though I can get a little startled if a dog suddenly charges a fence (fair, right?).

With new people, I might play it cool for a second… but give me a moment and I’ll be belly-up asking for love.

I’m 3 years old, spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and very ready to find my person
.
Not just any home…
The one where I finally get to relax, trust, and be someone’s dog.
If you’re looking for a loyal, fun, slightly silly girl who just wants to be by your side…

I think we might be a match, if you think so too, please fill out the adoption form in Mashi’s bio

To develop the kind of career Nia DaCosta has by the age of 36, you have to be, as she says, “a hustler.”

Over the last eight years, DaCosta has amassed a filmography that ricochets from one high-octane setting to the next, without sacrificing the strikingly intimate character studies that anchor each feature. The breadth of her work as a director is matched only by the breakneck speed at which she’s moved between projects and genres. The Brooklyn native first landed in theaters in 2018, with ‘Little Woods,’ a crime thriller starring @tessamaethompson as a reluctant drug dealer attempting to pay off her mother’s mortgage before foreclosure. By 2021, she was under the mentorship of Jordan Peele, with whom she wrote ‘Candyman’ (her sophomore feature) in tandem with Win Rosenfeld. The modern-day ghost story made her the first Black female director with a number one debut at the U.S. box office. DaCosta then fired off ‘The Marvels’ for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the highest-grossing film by a Black female director; the Golden Globe-nominated ‘Hedda,’ a wild adaptation of Henrik Ibsen’s 1890 play Hedda Gabler, also starring Thompson; and this month’s zombie epic ‘28 Years Later: The Bone Temple,’ the fourth installment in Danny Boyle’s cult series.

The string of high-profile projects caught the attention of fellow writer-director Ryan Coogler, who made headlines himself this year with ‘Sinners.’ In the whiplash-inducing three-month interval between the release of ‘Hedda’ and @28yearslatermovie—after which DaCosta swears she’ll be attempting some well-deserved time off—the pair sat down to discuss actor soulmates, crop-rotating genres, and how to scare your producers.

The string of high-profile projects caught the attention of fellow writer-director Ryan Coogler, who made headlines himself this year with ‘Sinners.’ In the whiplash-inducing three-month interval between the release of ‘Hedda’ and @28yearslatermovie—after which DaCosta swears she’ll be attempting some well-deserved time off—the pair sat down to discuss actor soulmates, crop-rotating genres, and how to scare your producers.

To develop the kind of career Nia DaCosta has by the age of 36, you have to be, as she says, “a hustler.”

Over the last eight years, DaCosta has amassed a filmography that ricochets from one high-octane setting to the next, without sacrificing the strikingly intimate character studies that anchor each feature. The breadth of her work as a director is matched only by the breakneck speed at which she’s moved between projects and genres. The Brooklyn native first landed in theaters in 2018, with ‘Little Woods,’ a crime thriller starring @tessamaethompson as a reluctant drug dealer attempting to pay off her mother’s mortgage before foreclosure. By 2021, she was under the mentorship of Jordan Peele, with whom she wrote ‘Candyman’ (her sophomore feature) in tandem with Win Rosenfeld. The modern-day ghost story made her the first Black female director with a number one debut at the U.S. box office.

@monica_lewinsky is done letting the Internet have the last word.

We caught up with the American lightning rod in Los Angeles to talk about what gets under her skin, what keeps her grounded, and why “fuckface” is a word she’s bringing into 2026. Three decades after the political scandal that made her “patient zero of losing a personal reputation on a global scale,” Lewinsky reflects on what it means to live (and heal) in public.

Watch along, then head to the link in bio for the full feature by @emmelc.

“I hope I can show younger generations of women that it actually gets better.”

@monica_lewinksy has called herself “patient zero of losing a personal reputation on a global scale.” Now a podcast host and TV producer, Lewinsky is a cipher for much of what ails our media ecosystem and our politics today—from her circuitous route to finding an authentic form of feminism to the seismic shift her story fomented in political reporting and the role of the Internet. Over the last 30 years, we’ve seen the tides of feminism rush in only to recede, while the Internet’s initial democratic promise has given way to a breeding ground for fascism, misinformation, and misogynistic ideology in the manosphere.

But Lewinsky is interested in the healing potential of attention, in listening to people who have too often been poked, prodded, and violently exposed. “We rubberneck the car accident,” she tells @emmelc in CULTURED’s Winter issue. “How many of us think, five minutes or five weeks later, I wonder if that person is okay?”

Link in bio to read how she has reclaimed her agency on- and offline, and reevaluated her place in political history while she’s at it.

Lizzie - ADOPTED
Girl, 2 years

Hi, I’m Lizzie.
If loving people were an Olympic sport, I’d already have the gold.

I’m the kind of dog who feels joy in my whole body. When I meet someone, I don’t do subtle. I do happy wiggles, dramatic flops, and full commitment to the moment (if you don’t believe just swipe to see a pic of them!). I just really, really love people.

If you don’t believe me, swipe to the last photo.
That’s me, belly up, completely undone by the idea of belly rubs.

I know my excitement can look like a lot at first. I feel things deeply, and I do best with people who understand dogs, who see excitement as information, not something to shut down. Give me a little time to decompress and I’ll show you how sweet and eager I am to get it right.

Here’s the part that surprises everyone. Once we’re home and the day slows down, I turn into a total couch potato. I love being close, stretched out, calm, soaking up quiet moments with my people. Outside I’m joy on four legs. Inside I’m all about comfort and connection.

I’m two years old, spayed, and up to date on all my vaccines. I’m strong, healthy, and ready for an active home that lets me be myself while helping me settle.

I’m not too much. I’m just full of love and looking for the right place to put it.

If you’re looking for a dog who will adore you loudly at first and quietly forever, I’m right here.

Love,
Lizzie 💗

Ps: If you think I might be your girl, you can fill out an adoption form through the link in Mashi’s bio.

If you’re looking for a dog who will adore you loudly at first and quietly forever, I’m right here.

Love,
Lizzie 💗

Ps: If you think I might be your girl, you can fill out an adoption form through the link in Mashi’s bio.

Hi, I’m Lizzie.
If loving people were an Olympic sport, I’d already have the gold.

I’m the kind of dog who feels joy in my whole body. When I meet someone, I don’t do subtle. I do happy wiggles, dramatic flops, and full commitment to the moment (if you don’t believe just swipe to see a pic of them!). I just really, really love people.

If you don’t believe me, swipe to the last photo.
That’s me, belly up, completely undone by the idea of belly rubs.

I know my excitement can look like a lot at first. I feel things deeply, and I do best with people who understand dogs, who see excitement as information, not something to shut down. Give me a little time to decompress and I’ll show you how sweet and eager I am to get it right.

Here’s the part that surprises everyone. Once we’re home and the day slows down, I turn into a total couch potato. I love being close, stretched out, calm, soaking up quiet moments with my people. Outside I’m joy on four legs. Inside I’m all about comfort and connection.
