General question for anyone with genuine, studio experience: when is it OK to use the phrase "inspired by a true story?"
Meaning, how far afield ft from the actual events can you go, and still make that connection?

@jaketapper.bsky.social - whatever microscopic shreds of journalistic ethics you may have had left after the utterly despicable HIT PIECE you did on Joe Biden have been dissolved and blown into stay atoms with the unbearable ass-kissing, kid-glove toadying you are showing the vile TangerineTwat.

Hey all! Anyone interested in swapping scripts? I've got a half-hour dramedy that's in pretty good shape. But that's through my eyes and some fresh eyes might be able to see where I can tighten, raise the stakes, clarify character, etc. DM me here!

He's brutally honest & 100% right. We need to create a real plan to counter the destruction wrought by Project 2025 with actions to take, Executive Orders to issue, and legislation to enact ON DAY ONE AFTER THE REMOVAL OF THE CURRENT OCCUPIER OF THE WHITE HOUSE!

@kaine.senate.gov , I appreciate your desire to help federal workers in your state. However, your vote will allow healthcare to be stripped from so many more of your constituents, especially those in the western and southwestern part of your state and across the nation. Please vote NO on cloture.

If you live outside a state/city & comment on what Dem in that state/city is acceptable to you - be circumspect. Dems, unlike the current GOP are rarely one-size-fits-all. Some areas will embrace a Socialist Dem, some a Centrist Dem. We actually ARE a big tent. And ANY Dem beats a Fascist.

@warren.senate.gov - can you please introduce legislation that gives people the right to their own body, facial features, and voice? And another which gives anyone whose work was used to train AI partial ownership of the resulting product.
These are such important protections for all citizens.

The GOP rigged the system to pack the SCOTUS. This is why. Destroying the guardrails for protecting American citizens from Corporate malfeasance, repealing the rights of all non-white, non-cis citizens, and installing Autocracy.
There it is.
Breaking: The Supreme Court is now officially considering taking up a case overturning same-sex marriage.
This is the first time in history the court has considered rolling back this right.

Dems!
We have primaries!
Champion and vote for the candidate you want without abandon! This is your moment to persuade enough people in your party who the best candidate and their platform will best serve your district or state is!
BUT IN THE GENERALS, VOTE THE FASCISTS/FASCIST ENABLERS OUT!

Please read this thread by the always thoughtful and insightful @okbjgm.bsky.social . He beautifully lays out some of the most glaringly inhuman dangers of LLMs, as well as the ENORMOUS environmental damages they cause.
a few years ago i sincerely believed it to be the duty of artists to take these tools and show the world how to use them humanely and respectfully. i don’t believe that any more. every time i have tried i have left the experience frustrated and angry…

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.
It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.
