AHH! Looks like I can FINALLY talk about my next show 🤞!! An adaptation we're developing for Netflix.
More in a sec, but here' a SUPER SUBTLE hint 😇:

This shit should be illegal, and those involved charged and prosecuted every. Fucking. Time. "Hollywood Accounting" is just blatant, unapologetic theft.

i’m convinced both WGA & SAG need to go after the studios in federal court for “hollywood accounting” after this. how are they allowed to just straight up rob our members and no one does anything? what about the IRS?

I get annoyed by the “why you, why now?” question that writers get about potential projects. It’s unlikely Jesse Armstrong comes from a family of amoral gazillionaires. Not everything has to be ripped from personal history. Sometimes you just have a sharp idea at the right time

I’m jealous of Gen Z for missing the era of the “cute top.” I once asked a forum about club outfits ideas and everyone said “jeans and a cute top” and I said “what’s an example of a cute top” and they all just laughed and told me to Google it

George R.R. Martin has issued another impassioned blog post in support of the writers strike: "If the story editors of 2023 are not allowed to get any production experience, where do the studios think the showrunners of 2033 are going to come from?" variety.com/2023/tv/news/geo…

Since many want to know. Here are some of the steps of the development process:
--Pitch: You thought of your own Tv show idea, and you've developed a pitch for it
--Production Company attaches: You've pitched to a POD and they liked it, they decide to "take it out" with you

Today is Nation Awareness Day for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women. Native Women go missing at the highest rates and murder is the third leading cause of death for Native women… and these numbers are underreported!

We are sponsoring a free screening of @PoliteSocietyFF at @aperturecinema in Winston-Salem, NC. It’s totally free! Just show up! We wanted to support cool small movies and cool small theaters. Sunday May 7th at 1:15 pm. First come first serve. (We’d love to be there but we can’t make it.)

The whole point is to invent robots to do the work no one wants to do, not to invent robots to do the jobs that people love. How are we messing this up so badly

There is no day that can't be improved by seeing pictures of how they weigh an owl.

Working on a new pair of fully beaded boots, I cannot wait til they are done. These were completed in 2016 I believe .
