Imagine how goddamn clueless and unserious of a reporter you have to be in 2023 —a decade after Elizabeth Holmes charmed her way into a $9B valuation for a fake magical box — to think: “You don’t know her like I do! 🥺” https://t.co/HYVXKcjOK5

We're gonna end with a society that's very comfortable looking at writers and artists as fools who picked a foolish career who deserve whatever pennies they get.

When you've been told for DECADES, that an English major or liberal arts degree is worthless and everyone should "learn to code," yeah, we're gonna end up with a society that thinks what writers do is easy and shouldn't be valued and AI is the solution. It's all connected!

my contrarian opinion is that doing things you don't want to do is incredibly bad for you. all the advice that says to grind is bullshit you just end up teaching yourself that you don't value your intrinsic motivations, and over time those vanish, leaving you empty

So from now on when you hear "writer on set," you know to be picturing: rewriting, avoiding continuity errors, making a scene funnier or sadder or scarier. Helping the director guide performance and supporting actors so they can do their best work....

A writer on set isn't just getting experience for the future. They're not there because the showrunner is nice or doing them a favor. They are actively producing the show. This is true when the writer is new and learning fast, and quadruple-true when they are experienced.

See how much money a writer on set can save a production? Why it can be said that the cost of having them "pays for itself"? As for how much it actually costs per episode -- for simplicity's sake, since this thread's getting long: a lot less than $250k.

There are near-infinite "or"s that can pop up on the day. Or, one of your actors sprained their ankle and must be seated. Or, it's raining. Or, the location with enough floor space for the time machine fell through and there was no time to tech scout this one.

I think it might be time to reconsider whether atomic design helps or hinders the creation of designs and systemsIt’s been the de facto rule for looking at interfaces for a long time, but I find that sometimes it can actually create more confusion 💫 pic.twitter.com/cOqywx2DKZ— luis.

Now-Republican state Rep. Tricia Cotham went from sharing her own abortion story in speaking out against NC's 72-hour waiting period bill in 2015 — as a Democrat — to switching parties and now voting for a bill that imposes a 12-week limit and doubles-down on the waiting period https://t.co/BGGqngibwt
