“When he was down” is a fantastic euphemism for “when he was videotaped spewing anti-Semitic baseless conspiracy theories”

Look at these terrible family members. No one was asking “how does RFKJ’s sister feel about his latest remarks?” She just felt the need to kick @RobertKennedyJr when he was down. Nice.

I don’t know what your dream is, Netflix, but my dream is that you’ll pay the writers and actors who made the content that made you a $4.49 billion profit last year.
Don't give up on your dreams (unless you're a screenwriter or an actor with no streaming residuals). Current Netflix marketing copy sounding pretty tone deaf in the context of the double strikes. #SAGAFTRAstrike #WGAStrike #marketing

It’s almost like without professional writers, these people are unable to craft a narrative that doesn’t make them sound like deranged Disney villains

Fiction writers: are you looking for a new place to submit your work? It turns out you can invent a story about designing a website for a guy who never asked for one and submit it to the Supreme Court washingtonpost.com/politics/…

Imagine only doing one thing at a time, I thought later, on the walk home from dinner, and it was like imagining being on vacation

I told a friend last night that the AMPTP says they can’t negotiate with the WGA till they’re done negotiating with SAG-AFTRA, but my friend and I are both parents with hectic careers, so the idea of only doing one thing at a time was confusing to both of us

I’m not asking my friends if they want to pocket with me, iPhone. That isn’t a thing

I feel like by this point in the WGA strike, my phone should know me well enough to stop autocorrecting “picket” to “pocket”

This feels like a useful strategy that a lot of people could benefit from, RT’ing as a public service

my relationship with my parents improved when i started thinking of them as sitcom parents. and that sounds so silly but i realized if i kept on taking them seriously i would always be stressed. in order for us to get along i just gotta pretend our interactions have laugh tracks
