@BilgeEbiri I totally get what Kael is saying. Streep has a quintessential kindness and warmth to her that pours through even when she's playing characters that don't possess it. Like in Devil Wears Prada. Streep has perfect energy for screwball and feel good comedy
I wrote about the crackdown on campus protests.
Universities like Columbia, Cornell and Emory trade on Vietnam Era protests to market themselves to student activists. Protest is part of their brand and sales pitch. Now they're punishing students for taking them at their word. 🧵

The German Ministry of Culture puts out an official statement that at the award ceremony at which "No Other Land" received a prize green Minister Claudia Roth was only clapping for the Jewish-Israeli member of the filmmaking team, not the Palestinian.
I'm not making this up.
@caseyJsalengo There's actual human connection in live performances! Doing standup for clips to put on insta and tictok is soulless and makes you have to think about the production of the video rather than focus on being present to the audience
@skyler_higley Dude Chicago is so insanely segregated and so deeply racist
I grew up there, it's def got some nice things as well for sure but hard disagree
Art is about a human creating something that reaches out through space and time and connects with another human to tell them they’re not alone. If you think A.I. should be creating art, then you know nothing about art.
