i wish any journalist would follow up and ask if he ever sees anything or if he avoids the news on purpose so he can avoid commenting on all the evil shit his party does.
Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children
MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

Amended: None of us are guaranteed a long career as anything.
100%. None of us are guaranteed a long career as a WGA writer. There will be dry spells. Oscar winners have dry spells. Emmy winners have dry spells. People who worked for twenty straight years have dry spells. Assume that you will too. Be grateful and keep going.
After my first studio deal, I made the common mistake of many new pro screenwriters:
I assumed my income was only going to go UP.
But the reality is, for most of us, a long career means a long series of up, down, and even zero years.
That uncertainty is not for everyone.

from #Variety on who's still playing at the Kennedy Center:
"Few big-name acts remain on the schedule for the rest of this year. The list of those still scheduled is led by right-leaning comic Adam Carolla, Jeff Foxworthy, Tony Hinchcliffe and R&B singer Tyrese."
Yikes.

Drinking game for watching #ThePitt: take a shot every time Dr. Robbie uses hand sanitizer. You won't get alcohol poisoning but you will be drunk.

Could not be more excited for this! Great premise, great trailer, great stars, great director and GREAT WRITERS. I'm so in! Opening weekend baby!!
In dark times, how about a fun dark twisted tale? SEND HELP is coming to help your vibes on Jan 30. There is simply not enough excitement on this app for Sam Raimi's first R rated movie in over 25 years. Maybe two new posters will help??

It’s a great year for movies. In the last month I saw Sinners (for the second time), One Battle After Another, Weapons, Ballad Of A Small Player, and Marty Supreme. Truly can’t remember when we last had a year this great.

twenty years from now, the next layer up will be democracy and then a thick layer of human bones, and then whatever's after that :/

our fuckface president is destroying the white house with his bad taste. a decent hpoz committee wouldn't have allowed this. but whatever, what he's done to the country is so much worse. ugh.

changed my mind. what a great and cinematic way to show the destruction of our nation, its ideals, and the unity of the United States. well played, no notes.
Remodeling the White House is so stupid

YUP. No one gets "#MeToo-ed." Their own awful behavior becomes known and they end their own career because they're awful, the end.
People went around for yrs screaming as if someone losing TV show or film was tantamount to murder. Really tired of this dynamic: You try to just POINT OUT ongoing bad behavior of a male public figure = you’re the worst monster in history & you just KILLED that guy by having standards. Sorry, my bad

trump's tariffs have destroyed the farming business, but if he gives them the $10b, they'll still love him and vote for him again if he pulls off this 2028 bullshit. real conundrum here.

when i was little -- like three or four -- we had an awful babysitter once that ate all the Cheez-its and wouldn't let us have any. She was obsessed with Styx and thought she was going to marry the lead singer. pretty sure she didn't.
