Anyone who works in animation knows that without production management, none of these movies get made. They deserve the union protection they’re seeking.
If you look at actual performance data, each and every charge Ron DeSantis and his administration brings against New College, the tiny “woke” FLA liberal arts, school, turns out to be wrong. /1 https://t.co/hCk0Wz2DHA. @monthly
Ok so the New College Board of Trustees terminated a visionary and highly competent president @ $300k and is now voting on a contract for a politician and pal of the Gov and some BoT members @ $699k (plus a 15% bonus at the ‘discretion’ of the BoT) as prez #totallylegit
The higher ed plan revealed: "Every state in America is holding a legislative session this spring. Now presents a golden opportunity to grab as much territory on education as possible…to adapt the New College plan to other publicly-controlled universities across the country."
Thank you for the amazing fundraising efforts. So far we have raised $72k and counting. If you're looking for a way to support the fight for educational freedom, donate here!

@TheBarbarienne No argument from me. I think I was after the fact that it would be easy for someone in, say, Nevada to not even be aware of this specific series of events unless they were plugged in in a specific way, but I absolutely don’t mean to downplay how pernicious it is.
@ToSayBoldly@cafecraig@black_coreyNFin I think the point was more to say that if you were to try to find a student/alumni body to organize against this, you’d be hard pressed to find one more equipped than New College. But yes, it may be an impossible fight to win.
There's a school in Florida called New College of Florida. It's notoriously non-traditional, has a highly progressive student body, and a high proportion of LGBTQ+ students. It's also one of the best public colleges in the country and it's in the midst of a political takeover🧵

The bet is that you won't notice it happening or that you'll be taken in by the articles that suggest it's not that big of a deal. But that's how it happens -- small, consistent actions by bad people at a local level until the very worst among us are in charge. So pay attention.
@MikeMyatt_ You know, I had the instinct to look back at Severance and for whatever reason, my memory of the performances is so skewed by all of the deliberately robotic people that I didn't bother, but this is super good!
Hi. I’m working on a thing. Wanna help me?
Tell me about a non-animated acting performance you love. I am most interested in A) specific scenes (as opposed to an actor in a role) and B) work that is contemporary.
What scenes live in your head?
