Me: BATMAN BEGINS is great, but I was amused by the writers’-fiat plot device that a place can be SO corrupt that some reasonably-organized foreign actor can just puppeteer it on a whim.

Me, 20 years later: fuck

Seriously, creative folks: Don't be afraid to let people know your stuff is out there for them, or worry that "now is not the time for that." People are stressed and freaked out and looking for the things that will give them a moment of rest and joy. It is EXACTLY the time for what we do. Tell them.

It is the darkest of all possible humor that Disney is publicly rolling back their DEI initiatives and removing content warnings from older, racially-insensitive work on the same week that they are releasing a new MCU movie with a Black man as Captain America.

The Kendrick Lamar halftime show was positive because a lot of people are now finding out and talking about 40 acres and a mule and what that means.

literally none of this is necessary or required. the EO that decreed this is constitutionally unenforceable and at this point anyone complying is just doing so because they agree with it, preemptively. It's all bullshit
Disney is making changes to its DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) efforts.

The studio is closing down the Reimagine Tomorrow initiative that helped highlight stories and talent from underrepresented communities.

I saw the Kanye ad yesterday (it aired in the Philly market, where we were) but didn't click on the link.

Today I found out it went to a website selling swastika T-shirts.

This was a Superbowl ad.

And it was to a website selling swastika T-shirts.

I feel like I'm losing my mind.

Not to sound self serving but supporting (aka giving money to) independent artists, writers, self-employed creators in general, is, in fact, praxis. why? bc you are supporting low wage people that actually create things. whether intended or not, it's an act of solidarity with an actual craftsperson
