As Hollywood executives claim they can't afford to pay actors better wages, they're also spending lavishly on AI, with Netflix offering $900,000 for a single AI product manager.

87% of actors earn under $26k — the cutoff to qualify for health insurance

Christopher Nolan woud've been pissed to see the shaky projection of 70MM you guys tried to pass off at 6 PM today. Like it was shot handheld without a steadycam. We walked out 15m in; who can last 3h? No one should! Thankful to get a refund, but it still ruined my date night.

@TheLivingMJ Except less creative, funny and entertainingly absurd.
Just feels kinda mean, gross and cutthroat. Gotta be our own Northstar...for some time...and hope we find fellow seekers.

I've never understood why gun owners themselves don't want the bar for gun ownership set high. If owning a gun required rigorous training, background checks, and licensing, you would hear that someone owned a gun and think, "That's someone I want around in an emergency."

In the last 8 weeks Iran’s regime has killed over 300 protestors, imprisoned nearly 15,000, and threatened to execute hundreds more, yet Iran’s women persist. Today female university students removed their forced hejab and chant, “I am a free woman.” https://t.co/OjQZ6zHfG5

Read my feature in @ForeignPolicy on why Iran’s youth have been left with two options: Leave the country, or rise up. #MahsaAmini
