I feel insane. Palestinians in Gaza are posting calmly worded final messages, accepting that they will likely die as the invasion of Rafah commences, and people on this website are debating policy & word choice, or ignoring this horror entirely. My soul is shattering. SPEAK UP

The occupation is heavily bombarding Rafah now, evacuating eastern areas, and Rafah crossing is considered part of these areas. Our chances of survival in Gaza have become slim. It seems that fate has decreed for us to die in Gaza. Perhaps it's the last picture.

Can we encourage the ai folk to start generating content with Disney IP? Maybe then we’d at least get some decent legislation that protects against infringement

Motaz’s uploads from the last couple of hours are horrific in a way that is so chilling, my brain cannot even process the reality of what he is documenting. That these people are live streaming their own executions while we do nothing is an indictment of each and every one of us.

I loved SO much about Nimona, but one of the most successful aspects to me was the overall pacing, & the timing of a lot of the jokes/emotional moments. They contrasted quick comedy with longer beats, and allowed important moments to BREATHE— so refreshing and inspiring. #nimona

some people here need to learn that there’s a huge difference between what you read online and what’s really going on irl. stop harassing good artists who have other real world professionals vouching for them - at best it’s embarrassing and at worst it’s legitimately harmful.

Finding out Moon Knight was EP’d and directed by an Egyptian filmmaker who made it his mission to have representation both behind and in front of the camera makes me love it that much more

i just… how. how are people posting silly art and photos of their lives as if this isn’t happening at the same time? this is hell. these people are in hell. and every single one of us provides cover for it with our apathy and our silence. i am so deeply, deeply ashamed.

All this says to me is that even the most successful and skilled creative voices in the industry are struggling to find funding for new projects that aren’t driven by executives or existing IP.

Taika Waititi says he joined the MCU for money "I had no interest in doing one of those films ... But I was poor ... and I thought, ‘You know what, this would be a great opportunity to feed [my] children. And ‘Thor,’ let’s face it — it was probably the least popular franchise.

can you imagine being a parent to a young child in this environment? their little bodies and minds suffering, unable to fully comprehend what they’re going through, and still doing everything in your power to provide any comfort or relief? Palestinian families deserve life.

My great-grandmother Reina passed away last night at 96 years old. She was a powerhouse Mexican woman - one of 23 children, a riveter in World War II, and the absolute matriarch of our family. She passed surrounded by people who loved her. I’ll miss her forever. RIP Reina 👑

Heartbroken for the Boons & Curses crew. @jayhasrajani and @TheDragoEffect gave their hearts and souls to that project and their team - canceling a show like theirs without notice or care is atrocious, regardless of the reason. They deserved far better than what they got today.
