He couldn't make it because no studio would give a green light to such a project. Nothing to do with filmmaker identity whatsoever. Seriously, who keeps telling these poor people this stuff? It's objectively untrue. Most filmmakers being hired now are straight white men; the films have changed.

Elsewhere, a roof is just part of a house… But for us, it’s a delayed dream like comfort, like joy, like a life we’ve never truly known.

Well butts, didn't know that - guess I'll have to check out Biblio!

Too tired and sad to go somewhere to enjoy the sunshine. And tomorrow I'll probably be too hot, given the forecasts. Stupid brain. Stupid meat carapace.

Hey, my wife and I noticed you across the bar and we really dig your tortured, hollow stare and hysterical, mewls and gibbers.

This is THE tweet of all time

The earth belongs to all of us or none of us. We shouldn't allocate rights & entitlements based on an accident of birth. We shouldn't deprive people of rights & entitlements for that reason either. Free movement for all - especially those who imminently need it most. #AyeWelcomeRefugees
