Why, as a singer or an actor, would you actively do something that ruins your voice and face, the two things that make you money? It’ll be really hard to sing or say your lines when you’ve lost half your esophagus or have to have your tongue cut out from cancer.

With more actors, pop stars and other celebrities spotted unapologetically smoking, the cultural taboo against it shows signs of ebbing. That worries antismoking advocates.

So does FilmFreeway not notify you if you make it to the next round of something and the program requires more information? Cos I just saw that back in 2022 my submission to Sundance Episodic was marked as Incomplete and I never heard a damn thing about it. #scriptsky

My grandfather, who my son is named after, was a US Coast Guard veteran who served in WWII and received a Purple Heart. He’s rolling in his grave right now and this is a disgrace to his memory.
Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols.
The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”

This is an accidentally honest answer. What she's saying in code is:
"The President is a misogynist, petulant bully. You've all seen him be a misogynist, petulant bully. And lots of voters out there are also misogynist or petulant or bullies and that's why they like him."

Q: What did the president mean when he called a reporter "piggy"?
LEAVITT: Look, the president is very frank & honest with everyone in this room. You'll all seen it yourself. You've all experienced it yourselves. And I think it's one of the many reasons the American people reelected this president
