The movie “Weapons” has generated $270M in worldwide box office revenue. Quite an ROI for a film with a production budget of $4.5M. Here are 3 screenwriting lessons from the film written and directed by Zach Cregger. www.patreon.com/posts/screen... #movies #screenwriting
The number of arrogant rich South African tech bros I’ve encountered in books I’ve edited is not insignificant.
I wonder just how dated those references will be in ten years.
I used to have that. Do you have a night guard at least?
Today, the Senate passed the ROAD to Housing Act, a bipartisan bill to expand the housing supply and make housing more affordable.
I was proud to vote for this bill championed by @warren.senate.gov.
The House must pass this vital reform without delay.
“MINE NOW.”
I’m good, thanks, it takes a turn for the sci-fi. But oh my goddddd is it pushing all of my VERY currently renewed “we have unlimited money for wars but vets get change from the couch cushions” rage
(I have one of those jobs that’s being replaced by AI)
My hourly is STUPID high but I’m freelance in a feast-or-famine cycle. If I was working full time at this rate I would be fine.
Somewhere I have a picture of him gnawing at the corner of my iPad.
This book I’m proofreading involves veterans and medical professionals who work for the VA. I’m 30 pages in and already ready to punch a wall over the truthful depiction of how hard it is to obtain services and how underfunded the hospital in the book is.
Not in the slightest. High-wage-earning populations have driven working folks out of their homes.
My hourly has gone up but my hours have gone down so my annual net has been at or below what I was paid then for 16 of the past 20 years.
The emerging cases of AI psychosis have shown that all it takes to drive some people completely insane is to put them in contact with a sycophantic chatbot who always agrees with them.
Now, what does that tell us about billionaire CEOs surrounded by sycophantic people who always agree with them?
He doesn’t understand the concept of “triple-booked deadlines” and “Mama has to earn money to buy cat food”
It didn’t smell enough like Cat
He seems to be taking a cue from Fiasco about claiming office equipment
Sir? Excuse me. That’s MINE.
You dropped this 👑
In the past 24 hours we've seen violent, antisemitic attacks in San Jose and now Michigan.
Jews were beaten for speaking Hebrew. A truck filled with explosives was rammed into a synagogue with children inside. I am praying for the victims and their families.
We’re going to need progress shots as you decorate and customize the interior!
I'm sorry, but in addition to just the inherent bigotry & rejection of science, I am so fucking tired of this conversation being centered around school sports like school sports are this somehow simultaneously vital & fragile meritocracy that must be protected above anything else in kids' lives.
Didn’t we just go through this with Timmy? Ballerinas can kill you with their FEET.
"Palantir CEO Alex Karp says his AI technology will lessen the power of “highly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly Democrat” while increasing the power of working-class men."
Just saying it right out loud now.

talked to these folks recently and they were AWESOME.
have a look.
No disrespect to modern designers but book covers from back then were *a vibe*.
That’s a really good-looking edition tho…
Miette knows what’s up
Imagine saying this shit in a year when we've had some of the largest mass protests in the country's history, but because they aren't on *college campuses* they somehow Do Not Count.
