*teacher sees students sharing a note*
Teacher: why don’t you read that out loud
Student: [reading note] Dear teacher, this is an intervention. Your methods of discipline via public humiliation are uninspired carbon copies of Hollywood tropes. We wrote this letter as a class...
My son 🙋🏽♂️was SO cute today, he asked me "dad are clouds candy?" 😍 I told him they were water. 💦 Then he asked "dad, what's Earth's defense system?" and then I remembered I don't have a son and he asked again his eyes now obsidian black "what is the defense system father"
In one of my marine bio classes a teacher asked "how big is the ocean?" and one student yelled "not big enough!" and we all started chanting "expand the ocean! land is for losers!" and the professor smiled and went "yes yesssss soon not even the mountains will be beneath us"
Anakin: …is it possible to learn this power?

You're seriously telling me to my face as if it's something to be proud of that your *entire* childhood was defined by a book series that went "there are four schools in school: brave, bad, school, other"
Before this website collapses I just wanna say that during

a bunch of peeps were like "is your character autistic?" and I was like "nah I don't think so, that's just me being me!" anyway I got an assessment last winter and y'all nailed it

In winter work stops for two weeks
Which means you don't get paid for two weeks
Which means you can't make rent
Except for the holiday bonus
Which is paid by the studio? NO
It's paid by the WRITERS!

I was stressing about what to wear and Emily went "do the yellow plaid so it matches your character" and I was like "yeah?" and then she pulled out her yellow sweater and went "then also we can match!" and I've never felt more assured in my entire life

There's so many subtle ways Rian tells us who the characters really are in Glass Onion, from the way they dress to their drinks of choice to the actors' names in the end credits

Lou Wilson is one of the sweetest and kindest human beings I've ever been at a table with. He is also one of the most effortlessly dramatic and hilarious ethereal beings I've ever had the pleasure of knowing.
I love Batman stories because his peeps are homies with special interests that are like "I like calendars batman wanna hear about calendars" and he's like "yeah like you can't keep breaking into the museum but obviously I want to hear about calendars"
Listen to me very carefully 🗣️

Brennan Lee Mulligan is a comedic genius. A literal living and breathing comedic genius. His ability to make you laugh at the sweetest choices and cry at the funniest jokes is pure art. The tenderness in his set up, and then the ferocity in his delivery

So how do we survive?

THIS IS A REAL THING THAT IS NORMAL & EXPECTED IN HOLLYWOOD

A lot of this "Black Creators, send me your stuff, I'll give you notes" stuff is kinda weird to me. This ain't a matter of notes. The peeps I know have been grinding for over a decade. They're so good. Just hire them. Or cast them. Honestly, you should be working *for* them.
This show, this story, has been so funny and glamorous and grounded and exciting and rewarding. And I am so grateful for all of you watching and supporting. I hope you enjoy the finale. And may our courts know a better and more beautiful future 💚 🏹

I will always march in solidarity with WGA writers for a million reasons, but the most important is because they fight for everyone around them as well
You fought for us we fight for you
And let me know if you all need a coffee run or something from the kitchen

Studios: by August they'll be struggling for money and will beg to work again
Ah yes, the two groups that have no experience making ends meet with little to no income, writers and actors
Get wrecked
It has been an absolute honor getting to be a part of this show. I want to thank all of you for letting our characters and this story into your homes and your hearts. No one is ever lost, they're simply on their way home, wherever whatever and whomever that might be 🌧️💜

Among the myriad of reasons to support the strike, for me it's personal. WGA writers have unknowingly (and at times very knowingly) helped me literally survive while working in the industry with cash from their own wallets. Picking up where the studios neglect

Not to be dramatic but this is a time when it's the most expensive to stay warm and *literally* keep the lights on. I'm not talking avocado toast here I'm talking about being able to afford heat

Quick follow up: while sassy emoji baker is a lot of fun, let’s keep in mind that all the villagers are conformist jerks, especially with the line of “It's a pity and a sin,
She doesn't quite fit in.”
Belle may be a “funny girl” but she’s worth the whole damn bunch put together.
This show has been life changing. This story has been soul enriching. The production is awe inspiring and the response has been... oh no, there are no words. I looked through all the words and none of them are good enough to compliment you all. oh no! 🌧️💜

Ambitious, to a fault, their strategic minds are sharpened weapons that detractors will find themselves falling and failing under. Raise a glass but beware their wrath.
If you're not hearing it anywhere else: you're doing great
Like it's all very very difficult and terrible really. There's a lot of good stuff! But everything else is on hard mode
So you're doing great

Charging $8 for a service that was up until now "free" because he bought a company that's hemorrhaging money where'd this guy go to business school, a community theater performance of Urinetown?
Ok but genuinely if this thing does go down in the next day or two I just wanna say go easy on yourself. And then easier on yourself. This life stuff is confusing as hell and it takes a lifetime to get any clarity. Anyone who says otherwise is just trying to make a quick buck
The way that AI is being marketed to us says way more about the people than the tech itself. I'll see posts like "using AI we finally know what would have happened if Gulliver *didn't* go on his Travels" like ok why am I still filing my own taxes tho
