Everything makes sense when viewed from just these few paragraphs But they’re ugly truths

The real reason there was a furor about critical race theory is that it explained how non-white races are attracted to and participate in white nationalism Look at all the Latino ICE agents, Somalian police officers in Minnesota or Southeast Asians working for Trump

Non-intersectional feminism is just an extension of white nationalism Their only objection is that they are not precious within the set patriarchy First wave feminism ignored women without money and split instead of uniformly condemning slavery Nothing has changed

Trump’s base win lose everything and not change as long as: He appears powerful The right people get hurt Bc that’s how our culture works

White nationalism has no remedy for when rich white men do something bad, bc that’s how it’s structured It’s why the Epstein info leaked and they did nothing They never do when the abuser is rich and white When they’re poor or POC they know what to do

Southern men couldn’t afford slaves They didn’t have the infrastructure to win They threw their lives away bc rich men were losing and told THEM to do it But they were willing to do it bc of racial politics

I didn’t get it But I couldn’t forget about it

You can’t beat Trump You don’t even understand how or why he’s winning He’s going to continue to win You could have beat him but you missed when he was weak

99% of the whining I see on Bluesky is from people that fundamentally don’t understand what America IS Everything happening rn makes perfect sense, the signs were there

Once you understand the South had zero chance to win the Civil War America as it is now makes total sense

Last Weekend Carol Burnett & Vicki Lawrence Together 👂👌

The crazy thing is Two weeks ago Hokum flat out scared more people in the theater than I’ve seen for a long long time and Backtooms hasn’t dropped yet Crazy month

I gotta be honest The amount of guys not grasping some stuff in Obsession makes the film’s point more than anything else could

@swanieprods.bsky.social @leahfromsd.bsky.social @americanmegalo.bsky.social y’all gotta watch Obsession post haste bc we haven’t stopped talking about it since

Good Lord

Nebraska consistently sucking is not a surprise after they blocked student loan forgiveness

Biden followed the law? The Supreme Court hadn’t ruled that he was basically a king?

#scriptsky #specscriptshoutout Just finished a very polished version of THE LOCKSMITH by @leahfromsd.bsky.social and if you like body horror mixed with outstanding characters and creepy lore, this is your jam. Leah is such an amazing writer, pairing horror with social issues both great and small.

The Afterlife: Man: So yeah we were fighting in the caves and then the bombs dropped and there was a roar and it went dark- Anyway, how did YOU die? Jeff: Have you heard of pickleball?

How do you die Playing PICKLEBALL

Amazing!

If we had to rank animals based on overall adorability (appearance + behavior) Elephants got to be AT LEAST top 3

While…. simultaneously expanding the visa program bc of the farm labor crisis?

That gas go up on Friday, no it ain’t

According to Nielsen, 'CBS Evening News' just recorded its lowest-rated February of the 21st century, averaging 4.4 million total viewers and 538,000 in the key 25-54 demographic.

Hey! I need some input so pass this on My writing partner talked me into a gateway horror spec. I aimed for Ring sort of PG-13, but how hard should we be going on violence, etc? #writertwitter

Apparently black people have to either endure racial slurs or be called ableist there is no other path

The advice I’m trying to implement at the moment It’s helping a ton w exposition and those ‘in between’ scenes that genre movies usually mess up #writertwitter

Eventually the military gets sick of this and simply takes the power

The Boston Strong Boy So you might have noticed I'm not exactly prolific, but it's because there's a lot of intention and thought put into everything I do. As a rather active person I spent a lot of time thinking about which athletes I wanted on the site, and what they represented. I reached out…

My aunt and uncle went without power for 2.5 months after Maria. My grandfather who lives in San Juan went even longer. The power lines were the most impactful image of many tonight.

I look forward to reading 100 articles breaking down all the symbolism in that set, because the level of detail was insane

Look, I’m not the most informed guy but I think I know the answer

Dear Canadians I’m am not mad at y’all the slightest

I have not seen One Battle After Another but I cannot imagine pulling Maya Rudolph and not marrying her so I’m applying my dislike to his films 😄

But I’ll say the pro writer community that I’ve seen is the warmest, more generous, humblest creative community in film I have received more than I deserve or earned from them

Treat everyone w kindness and respect But don’t let people cross the line no matter who they are In general have a hard moral line that you won’t compromise bc those are the people LA breaks the hardest

If you’re wrong apologize If you’re not, sunlight is the best disinfectant and time is the ultimate revealer Shrewd people will figure out the truth, and dummies will get conned

However no matter what I write it will not land for some people bc I cannot hide my blackness I don’t write copaganda, or frat boy characters, or fragile women or dozens of other things The thing that gives me my voice alienated others Such is life

For a script to succeed it has to go to widest audience possible The white audience is very very skittish, if they don’t feel included or centered they ain’t supporting My blackness is my rooting for the underdog, being an outsider, being grounded But I can’t be BLACK

Handling my blackness as a writer has been a journey A reductive view would make you think that black people would be your biggest allies No one has pounded the table for me more than white men and the ugliest calls were from inside the house

I’m lucky in that there are better writers than me technically but they write bigger stuff in genres that no one is buying But I also had no idea how to ‘network’ which worked out bc that was the best way to network 😂😂😂
