The first day the strike was announced, I put a call on Twitter to see if someone could help me start up PreWGA Strike Support. Instantly, Nerris DMed me, and that night, we text, we called each other, and very soon, we brought on Jean to help. A DREAM TEAM. Thank y'all (1/3)

Not to be that person, but there's a 20 year difference between Cillian Murphy and Florence Pugh. Why does Hollywood keep doing this? 🫠

Christopher Nolan says the love story aspect “is as strong as I’ve ever done” in ‘OPPENHEIMER.’ The film features prolonged full nudity for Cillian Murphy and Florence Pugh, who plays Oppenheimer’s ex-fiancee, as well as sex. ()

I forgot who gave me this advice, but it’s: “writing the first draft is you telling the story to yourself”. Basically, get the first draft out, that way you can finally understand what you’re trying to say, that way it’s easier when you rewrite it. It’s helped me A LOT #WRAC20
