On Threads they’re debating whether using big words is ableist. I’m sick of this anti-intellectualism masquerading as social justice. People are making excuses to avoid having to do anything hard, but at some point you have to grow up and read and learn and challenge yourself.

Sci-fi x Fantasy world-building
With so much research, I can’t start writing until I’ve completed the timelines to established when certain magic tech was developed. 😭

If we don’t listen to the most creative minds in the most creative industries, we will pay the price.

Human creativity is a gift.
I know we like to chase convenience; it is the essence of progress in many cases. But creativity is one area where we should always see out hardship.

Guillermo del Toro says AI is a form of "natural stupidity"

“We are on the verge of image illiteracy. We are on the verge of cinema illiteracy... The pact between man and image is sacred, but we are in a time when that is in danger... We are told images can be generated by artificial means. The existence of an image is not just to be there. It is to connect us, to make us feel beauty,” he said.

[Polly Pocketknife🌸🔪 @polypocketknife]

the worst thing about social media is that a lot of people just turned into passive bullies, not necessarily actively harassing anyone but always looking for a laugh at someone’s expense, and from a distance we treat it as innocent and don’t recognize what it does to us as people

[Elena Sanchez @ElenaCSanchez]

@RotaryTurbo0 Yes!! The feeling you need to apologize for “making it about you,” when you were just trying to relate so the person doesn’t feel alone. 😭🫂

[Elena Sanchez @ElenaCSanchez]

Like if you describe a thing that happened.

And it HAPPENS to involve the name of someone,

Then all of a sudden, you’re “talking shit,” rather than just… talking… about your life.

Women need to stop ruining other women’s friendships

i hate unnecessary mean girl energy, girl go heal

[Elena Sanchez @ElenaCSanchez]

@GreenBlackHeart Yeah I’m basically like, if you can’t talk it out with a friend over something small, then you’re a broken person. And I won’t give up on them entirely, but I will stop begging for them to come back. It’s too painful getting ghosted time and time again by these weirdo vigilantes.

[Natillas💚🖤 @GreenBlackHeart]

Call-out culture ruined a whole generation's minds and made them into self-proclaimed vigilantes who can't have normal relationships with people because everything the other person does will be used against them once they inevitably fall out of friendship

[Bella Hadidn’t @SkinwithLolami]

I have no interest in being around people who assign malicious intent to every mistake. If grace is reserved for no one, not even the people in your life, I can only imagine how harshly you judge strangers

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

you’ve committed the social crime of acknowledging something negative. 10 lashings.

[katie @katefeetie]

it’s great we’re finally acknowledging that responding to someone’s vulnerability with “do the inner work,” “go to therapy” and “heal your trauma” is passive aggressive mean girl shit

[luna13 🌕 @l_u_n_a13]

The sad reality that I’ve noticed is that the biggest social crime is to make people feel “uncomfortable” and one way you do that is when things aren’t fine and you don’t pretend that they are

[Lisa Bee @leebee4life]

There are too many people who have influence or a platform who care more about themselves (enriching themselves or gaining power or both) than about the direction of the country or the fate of our future. Y'all would rather fool around or try to take over the party than help us.

[Elena Sanchez @ElenaCSanchez]

I know exactly how she feels.
I hope one day she finds a friend who deserves her.

Emma Watson reveals Hollywood broke her

“I came to work looking for friendship and that was a very painful experience for me outside of Harry Potter and in Hollywood. Like bone-breakingly painful”

“Most people don't come to those environments looking for friendships. They're looking for this is my chance, this is my role, this is what I want out of it”

“I found the rejection really painful. The friendship rejection. I took that expectation into my other workplaces and I just got my ass kicked. I really did”

“It broke me but in a way, I'm proud that it did because I guess that means I have something left to break. I have a heart left to break”

“I'd much rather keep my humanity”

[Elena Sanchez @ElenaCSanchez]

@RotaryTurbo0 Very quickly, too! One of these days, something in the hands of AI (say, a flight? Or massive Wall Street trade?) is going to get thoroughly BORKED, and we’ll all agree that porn bots and silly cartoons are not worth it 😭

[EarthtoGazelle @EarthToGazelle]

You can actually tell who the villain is by who isn’t afraid to hold themselves accountable and look “bad” in the pursuit of justice and redemption. You can tell who’s actually telling the truth by the way they try to repair instead of avoid any exposure of not appearing perfect.
