Screenwriting is not a zero sum game. One person’s success doesn’t keep another from succeeding. Success comes from, ultimately, the words on the page and the craft and creativity used to put them there. Any success by others needs to be applauded and encouraged.

It’s always ‘women get X’ until you trace it back and see the patriarchy handed them X as compensation for Y oppression.

everytime men complain about an “advantage” women have, it’s always because of the patriarchy “women get awarded custody more” yeah because y’all decided child rearing was a woman’s job “male victims of women aren’t taken seriously” yeah because you’ve decided women are weak and incapable “women don’t get drafted” see above “women can make money just by being hot” yeah because you treat us like objects, it’s YOUR money

People think suicidal thoughts mean someone wants their life to end. Often, it means they want their suffering to end. It’s: I’m overwhelmed. I’m alone in this. I can’t see a way out. My emotions are louder than my hope. I’m scared of how bad it’s getting. It’s not always about dying. Sometimes it’s about desperately wanting a life that doesn’t fucking hurt this much.
