there are many horrible brainworms you can catch online but none of them are as all-encompassing in their destruction of you as a human being as transphobia

How Sandie Peggie 'Benidorm Posse' friend group was torn apart by NHS Fife trans tribunal
The personal cost of the changing room row was exposed in expletive-ridden private messages as tensions boiled over in group chats.

One of the things I was most glad to talk with Rian Johnson about was working with his cinematographer Steve Yedlin (he also shouted out his production designer Rick Heinrichs) on these remarkable sequences 📽️

![Text from an interview with Rian Johnson about the lighting in WAKE UP DEAD MAN at RogerEbert.com that reads:
A: The big conversation I had with Steve, I grew up as a kid in Colorado, where the clouds move very fast. It doesn’t happen so much in Southern California, maybe in Chicago it does more often, but you’ll be in a room, it’ll be bright and warm and sunlit, and then the sun will go behind a cloud and like that [snaps fingers] it’ll suddenly be dark. You can barely see each other, and it’s dim and cool. The emotional language of the room changes. It’s something that happens a lot in real life, and you don’t see it in movies very often. I wanted to get very theatrical with those light changes, particularly in the church.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:n365qogwt3ny2khkvtkpwzge/bafkreiex5j4bv4wn6syomiy3grpz3oedqv6kak5r4xopkbueztkcwmivxm@jpeg)
![Text from an interview with Rian Johnson about the lighting in WAKE UP DEAD MAN at RogerEbert.com that reads:
A: So Steve did a ton of work, and the church’s interior was a set built by Rick Heinrichs, our production designer. Steve prerigged it with all these lights and worked out the lighting control system where on set, just on his laptop, we could play the light changes like we were playing music. We could shape them to the scene as it was happening and repeat them take after take. My favorite thing is when I talk to a friend and they’re like ‘oh my god, that must have been magical on set when you guys got lucky and the sun just happened to have come out when he was giving that speech.’ I always say, ‘Yeah, yeah, it was really lucky.’ [Laughs] That’s absolutely how I want you to feel. That’s great.
Q: Just the right place, the right time.
A: Exactly. Just a lucky guy.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:n365qogwt3ny2khkvtkpwzge/bafkreidefkffhz4abjma3zvl67qdjhdtmaq6xjfemswiecl3p7pj3p3vxe@jpeg)

it is not, in fact, always polite to not assume someones gender and degender the way you refer to them. there are people who will feel slighted either way. you must accept that sometimes you will make people uncomfortable and your only recourse is to learn peoples genders before referring to them

The confusion and conflation of ‘generative ai that is built on stolen artwork’ and ‘machine learning, character behaviour modelling and proc gen’ is intentional on the part of the grifters peddling the former. They benefit from murkiness of classification, because the latter predates their bollocks
