Really feels like the term "independent cinema" has lost all meaning. This thing cost almost 30 million to make and has two of the biggest stars in the world as the leads. A24 isn't big five but they're essentially a mini major that distributes some independent films atp.

I’m mad the system fucked me over so I’m going to take it on innocent people has always worked well for history.

The slide into fascism without any resistance or direct action is going to get us killed & people are like what do you want us to do about it?

Strike & break it all

I don’t think Gen Z is irresponsible, they just dgaf. When people talk about the blank stare I’m like yeah cuz they r not hiding they dgaf, they will perform bare minimum professionalism but y’all both know they hate their job and are not being paid fairly like … what is there to smile about. I get it

between this and the dog eating Dan's heart transplant on One Tree Hill we really had the most insane hilariously dramatic teen dramas in the 2000s

JW'S MOTION FOR ORDER REQUIRING BLAKE LIVELY TO GIVE DEPOSITION

#Lively has been sanctioning everyone left & right... but karma just filed its paperwork. Now it's Lively's turn to be sanctioned. 😂😂😂😂

Jed Wallace's (JW) motion argues that because @blakelively (BL) is seeking roughly $1,000,000 in fees, costs, and damages under California Civil Code § 47.1 after the case was dismissed for lack of personal jurisdiction, fairness and Rule 54's factfinding structure require allowing limited post-dismissal discovery—specifically, a narrowly tailored deposition of #Lively on the issue of malice, which #Lively claims JW must disprove to avoid fee-shifting.

1️⃣ What the motion is and what relief it seeks

Nature of the filing: JW's motion for an order requiring BL to give her deposition, expressly limited to issues related to her claim for attorneys' fees & damages.

Requested relief—JW asks the court to:
(1) Compel BL to appear for a deposition (at an agreed time/place, with a court-set "not later than" deadline).
(2) Defer ruling on BL's fee/damages motion until JW can develop an evidentiary record on malice.
(3) Award JW fees/sanctions associated with the missed deposition and this motion (invoking Rule 37 concepts).

2️⃣ Core arguments the motion relies on

Dismissal & what happened next:
The underlying defamation case was dismissed without prejudice solely for lack of personal jurisdiction over BL, with no merits rulings on other grounds.
After that, BL filed a Rule 54 motion seeking "approximately $800,000" in fees (plus fees for litigating the fee motion), plus costs and treble and punitive damages.

The "malice":
JW says BL is advancing a theory (supported, in her view, by a June 2026 decision) that JW must negate her privilege with admissible evidence of malice to avoid liability/fee-shifting.
JW argues that, if malice is the decisive issue, BL herself is the best (perhaps only) witness on her subjective intent.

Discovery history (why JW says they have no malice evidence yet):
JW asserts no discovery occurred because BL "blocked it," including refusing to participate in a Rule 26(f) conference.
JW noticed BL's deposition for Aug. 4, 2026 (in New York), and she did not appear.

3️⃣ Why discovery is permitted post-dismissal (Rule 54 framework)

Rule 54(d) as a factfinding vehicle: JW characterises Rule 54(d) fee litigation as not purely paper-based, but as allowing fact development when needed:
— Rule 54 requires factfinding (and can involve Rule 52(a) findings and evidentiary hearings).
— The 1993 Advisory Committee Notes contemplate that a court may find discovery under Rules 26–37 "useful" in fee disputes.

Reliance on the S.D.N.Y. "Wayfarer" order: JW invokes Judge Liman's June 12, 2026 order (which he acknowledges is not binding) to support the proposition that:
— Rule 54(d) permits courts to find facts necessary for fee determinations.
— Discovery may be justified "where a complaint contains well-pled allegations of malice but… has been dismissed prior to completion of discovery."
— They then argue this case fits that scenario because:
(1) Dismissal was jurisdictional and without prejudice.
(2) BL blocked discovery earlier.
(3) BL affirmatively put malice at issue by claiming JW must "prove malice" to avoid § 47.1 consequences.

4️⃣ Why JW says BL's deposition is relevant, proportional & narrowly tailored

Relevance—malice is subjective and central: JW defines the "central question" as BL’s state of mind—whether she:
— knew allegations were false,
— believed them in good faith,
— acted with reckless disregard, or
— acted with ill will.
JW argues BL's testimony is uniquely important because malice is "inherently subjective."

Scope limitations offered: JW claims the deposition would be limited to three core areas:
(1) BL's knowledge of JW’s actual role (if any) when she made statements.
(2) Her basis (if any) for including JW in the CRD and draft complaints.
(3) Her decision to disseminate accusations to the press before investigating.

Proportionality framing: JW portrays this as the "least burdensome" meaningful discovery—one witness, tied to issues BL put before the court by seeking substantial affirmative monetary relief.

5️⃣ JW's sanctions (Rule 37 leverage)
JW highlights two related points:
— Under Rule 37(d), a party can be sanctioned for failing to appear after proper notice, and a party generally can't refuse just because they claim discovery is objectionable unless they sought a protective order.
— JW stresses BL's counsel allegedly declared the notice "null and void" but did not move for a protective order in the weeks before the deposition.
This is meant to support both compelling the deposition and fee-shifting tied to the nonappearance.

So they’re just casually reporting that Israel built seven military bases IN LEBANON.

If you live in the US, this is what your tax dollars are funding.

The difference here is that Ariana Grande is selling & posting the emaciated body imagery herself & selling it to the masses & then saying she’s just healthy & athletic. No one with emaciation is “healthy”. Thats promoting sickness as a body type which has been around since 1800s

I’m so glad Hasan’s haters are finally admitting that they do not have an ideology outside of hating on Hasan.

@winchesterlizz My response wasn’t about you. It’s about the overall response to the situation. I don’t agree with 99% of what Perez did back then but the internet backlash of cheering on a mental break is the same behavior Perez did back then. Economic security than social. That was my point

In 2008 people were losing jobs & getting less than $8 an hour. Obama bailed out the corporations & gave a middle finger to the working class. People made jokes about occupy wallstreet & BLM instead of pushing direct action against capitalism. It all comes back to the $💵system.

Because pharmacists, nurses & drs all make enough money not to feel the need to care about their fellow man. Look at how many pharmacists don’t even purchase real drugs & kill their patients & we are like well that’s the system.
