To make matters worse, the symphony orchestra I work for posted “we care” a week after this all went down to promote an upcoming concert that’s neither a ballet nor an opera.

Restarting a screenplay because I’m a loser, wish me luck :)

I think people are taking his “yeah, yeah, yeah” as agreement (I did initially), when it was most likely to get him to shut up lol.

The T*mothee discourse has made its inevitable pivot into “so we can all admit now that we actually hate ballet and opera, right?” and I hate every single one of those people.

I will. :)

I blame this year’s Oscars discourse. Hamnet destroyed me and so many others, but there are still “cinephiles” out there going “is everyone dumb? This was the worst movie I’ve ever seen.” Those people will always be there. It’s also not possible to make a “perfect” movie. So why stress?

I thought I could find a balance between what I wanted and what others seemed to want, but I’m realising that I really only worry about what others will think when I’m writing. It’s crippling. I’m sure a balance can be achieved, but I’m definitely not there yet.

I like that mindset. 😁

I’m starting to become at peace with the fact that no matter what I write or how much I try to pander to an audience, there will always be at least one person who hates my work and thinks it’s stupid. So I might as well do what I want.

Thank you 🥲 I’m sure the look will grow on me eventually. It’s just jarring right now lol.

Wasn’t assertive enough at the hair salon and now my hair is way too short. 🥲

I feel like a proud mom, and I’m not even from Seattle

I can’t tell you how proud I am of my industry right now

Exactly 14% off too 😂

Calling him Timmy is so catty and I love it. 🤣 Good for them.

Good to know. 😂

You know what? Good. You don’t get to act like you’re above a certain art form just because it’s old. That’s teenager behaviour, not 30yo public figure behaviour.

Ok, good. 😅 I didn’t want to crash anything.

Brilliant! :)

I’m glad that major opera and ballet companies are standing up for themselves, though. “Nobody cares” my ass.

I’ve never done #scriptchat before… am I invading a closed club or is anyone allowed to participate? #scriptsky

As pissed as I am, I need people to stop posting that clip. It’s my entire feed. Like we get it, he’s an asshole, let’s move on now.

That’s the best compliment 😌

But it’s fun, so I don’t care that much.

I was working on this script last spring, so now that it feels like spring again, I’m thinking about it and how dumb it is.
