Are ALL the planets in retrograde or is technology in general my current sworn enemy?

I feel like TikTok and social media in general have taught people that they no longer have to adhere to simple rules of living in a polite, considerate society, and they can do whatever the fuck they want for "content" 😡

Apologies, but if I hear/see the word “unalive” in your video or description, I automatically tune you out and often stop watching/reading. I can’t control it. It’s a kind of knee-jerk reaction, a primal instinct. My body rejects it, like it’s poison or something far more sinister I MUST escape 🤷‍♂️

Had a wonderful screening of “Namas Dei: The Tucker J. James Story” at the LA Queer Film Fest! Getting people to come see our work in person is always a joy, especially so on a cold, rainy Sunday! So eternally grateful to all who were able to make it tonight! We love you 🥰 #NamasDei 🙏

Absofuckinglutely. I have never understood people who are stingy with credits.
From a filmmaking perspective I am pretty particular about this. Being uncredited, even for something that was small, doesn't feel good! Being a leader means acknowledging your team!!
credits that include the names of everyone who worked on the game at any point

Describe a character in Greek mythology the way someone trying to defend a politician would.

Artemis: Of course she drives a Subaru, that’s the most sensible choice in that off-road forest she lives in.

Zeus: alpha male.

No disrespect to Jim Henson but I don’t feel like there really are that many songs about rainbows and what’s on the other side
