Movies, books, geekery, travel. Such is the stuff of life.

Researchers gave homeless people $750 per month for a year, no questions asked. The recipients spent the money on food, housing, transportation, clothing, and health care. And after six months, only 12% of those who received funds were still homeless.

She. Needs. To. Retire.

Don’t look away. This is the world Republicans on the Supreme Court have created.

Was literally just saying this. Make their salaries tied to their workers'. Like, they can only make 10x their lowest worker's wages or something. No one needs to make hundreds of millions A YEAR. That's just pure greed.

As SAG-AFTRA looks to begin their strike, it’s important to share these resources to help support those across the entertainment industry whilst they are on the picket lines!

Support WGA and SAG in their fight to achieve deals that satisfy all of their demands!

[Liz W. Garcia 🚀 @WomenScribes]

Holy fuck - disturbing details from the SAG press conference, like how the AMPTP wanted to pay background actors for 1 day & then own their AI likeness forever. Incredible.

One that focuses only on Science Fiction and Fantasy with a cafe/bar that sells coffee/tea in the morning/afternoon and alcohol during the evening/at night. Space for people to study, work, write, play board games, meet with their book clubs, and have tons of community events.

i guess what i really hope libs outside of tennessee take away from today is the understanding that southerners aren’t all dumb hicks voting against our own interest. we’re being shut out and actively repressed by a bunch of diet fascist confederate apologists.

[Rep. Gloria Johnson @VoteGloriaJ]

🚨I want to ask everyone coming tomorrow that if you go in the gallery, please be silent. I think they want you to act out so they can call for you and the press to be removed. We need witnesses to what is taking place in the TN legislature. We need you to be silent witnesses.

Let's normalize also celebrating screenwriters. Without them you literally wouldn't have a story. Best Original Screenplay! (I ADORE this movie and am SO THRILLED that it got so much love and recognition!!!!)

[I'm Tired @PixieScribe]

This idiocy is right up there with Scifi channel changing to SyFy because they wanted to appeal to more women and women would never watch a channel called Scifi. Also, we're apparently very stupid and easily fooled by changing the spelling 🤦‍♀️
