is life just a series of days where you're tired in the afternoon and wide awake at night, running behind on weekly deadlines, and seeing pants get slim and big and then slim again over the years until you die?

I'm really excited. Over five years I've been trying to finish my screenplay for "L'Américain(e)" and today is the first table read to actually hear this thing out loud holy crap I thought this day would never come.

so listen I have got to tell you about my chaotic gas pump situation

I have a locked gas cap and dropped my keys and cursed

I bent down to pick them up and a shriveled brown leaf blew across the ground in front of my face which I thought was a giant cockroach and I screamed

what do you think is more curdled the milk in those glasses or the men in the tub

I don't know what's worse feeling bad about myself for no reason or feeling bad about myself for all the reasons

it's 2:22 AM I don't think I took a breath all day but I'm finally breathing now! I don't think I've ever been happier with my revisions been working on them all day. getting there!

to clarify: this reading is for utility not performance but still. i cannot believe how much anxiety im having over it

after 5+ years of writing i finally have the first reading for my screenplay coming up (this sunday!) HOW AM I NOT READY

still no perp walks? oh ok

No one is ok,
And we're not meant to be ok in this shit show

celebrating Presidents' Day by taking out my bathroom and kitchen trash

So the United States will only use empty warehouses to house people it wants to terrorize, not people it wants to shelter from the cold.

We really are not a very good-natured country.

when I hear an artist claim to be apolitical I assume they're maga and/or genocide supporters/deniers/apologists

society is going to collapse because fascists are never gonna stop fashing and liberals are never gonna stop blaming antifascists for fascism

imagine thinking all you have to do is boot trump to resolve the racist fascist imperialist three body problem in the usa

don't hate me but I don't hate it lol it's kind of amazing but also remember, if we use it they'll lose it so just start working jestermaxing into the ol' daily vernacular. (sidenote idk what any of these mean but I'm low-key obsessed. somebody tell me please don't make me search up foid)

the dcmc have protein fiber and iron so we're basically eating the same thing

go to Trader Joe's. buy a baguette and container of dark chocolate mint creams. pop a dcmc in your mouth and take a bite of bread and chew them together

whenever blue maga complains Palestine was a single issue vote I'm dumbfounded by the selective memory. have they forgotten the denials lying gaslighting that went hand-in-hand with the genocide-y stuff? this is who you're putting your faith in? like bro the lyinggggg everyyy fuckinggg dayyyyy

it's "not who we are" but it's who we've been and I'm glad people have finally started noticing. these are the shenanigans this country has been pulling around the world and on marginalized people here at home for centuries. welcome to the party, pal. happy to have you on board

oh nooooo sir I promise you he would never ever put anything in the bed of that truck because it could scratch the liner (see also: Denali owners)

I read this, horrified, then think how AI tools will worsen this cesspool we're already living in

Arundhati Roy pulls out of Berlinale over 'jaw-dropping' stance on Gaza Indian author withdraws after jury head Wim Wenders says film festival should 'stay out of politics'

"To hear them say that art should not be political is jaw-dropping. It is a way of shutting down a conversation about a crime against humanity even as it unfolds before us in real time - when artists, writers and filmmakers should be doing everything in their power to stop it."

I hadn't thought of this before. it's kind of reassuring, though completely contingent on trusting journalists to do their due diligence and figure out what's real in the first place. and listen, considering how many articles I read these days where they can't even be bothered to proofread damn idk

have the manosphere podcast bros figured out yet that theyre useful idiots orchestrated by a cabal of pedos yet or what

CARTOON OF THE DAY 😕

(From @andertoon.bsky.social )

there's no cease-fire in Palestine, ICE is still terrorizing Minnesotans (et al) pedos/murd3erers are still running the country (into the ground) MAGA still choking on boots just another Tuesday

Sorry to be Radical Left but I don't think we should put people who haven't committed a crime, and aren't even accused of committing a crime, into any sort of "Detention"
