@BenShindel @imurfavceo @pitdesi This isn't an argument, it's a fact of the article. The great news is, when you get your billion dollars, you can do whatever you like with it.

@BenShindel @imurfavceo @pitdesi They aren't doctors yet, they're people from all walks of life afforded an opportunity they might not otherwise have.

@CubanMissileDH New shirt, new hair. Triple threat!

@summerof7T6 @Bitterstaff What you're quoting are broadcast TV co-star rates, not the $100-200 that background performers make, who are the people they are scanning to use in perpetuity, in any context they feel like. Also the average co-star actor doesn't book 1-2 days/jobs a month, they book 1-2 a year.

@leah_from I think all the ideas so far are great. My two cents not mentioned would be a lovely potted plant for the home office or honestly, something ergonomic if they're going to be hunched over their laptop for eternity. This remote living is rough.

@briangenewrites This.

[Leena Kurishingal @LKursh]

Mostly to remind myself, five months from now. True for every aspect of filmmaking.

[Tom Vaughan @storyandplot]

People get stuck in endless rewrites because they never decide what story they're telling.

They don't know the script's purpose, so they don't know which notes support it and which don't.

So much of screenwriting is just making the decision of what you're trying to achieve.

@maddman727 @angelicaross I think the difference is she couldn't just not work for another horror television show...she couldn't work on anything. And when it's an industry standard, you don't have a lot of options. These are not jobs that hire often.

@CreepyCoolPics @ClaytonBury You're not the first person I know who hurt their ankle just trying to walk in LA "/ ...Smooth recovery wishes!

[Leena Kurishingal @LKursh]

@notcapnamerica You always keep me up to date on the state of the world...

[Leena Kurishingal @LKursh]

@PETEKEELEY @LilaGraceRose @GavinNewsom Lot of talk about innocent babies but not culprit penises. Maybe all this extra effort should go to that criminal part of the equation. Or does no one want to focus on that preventable crime? Too difficult? Hard to predict? Requires social change? Makes the conversation change?

[Leena Kurishingal @LKursh]

@stirpicus @EricRogersHere @nevslin Yeah, this very rarely works in the reverse. No one has ever tried to cast me as the All-American Midwestern Girl, despite that technically being what I am.

[Leena Kurishingal @LKursh]

@Brotherwags That I haven't been angry enough to punch someone (badly)? Clearly character flaw.

[Leena Kurishingal @LKursh]

You know, I've never been in a fist fight, but I sure have dropped my phone on my face a few times while half awake, and that hurts like a mother.
