Since I started donating to fundraisers for people in Gaza back in December, I have not once had a donation bounce back. GoFundMe has not marked any of them as scams. So once again, if you are calling people scammers when they are trying to survive a genocide, go fuck yourself.

Female cinematographers are far and few between. Per the annual industry report the Cellulod Ceiling, female DPs shot just 12 percent of the 250 top-grossing movies in 2024. So, when a high-profile male director hires women it’s a big deal; when he keeps hiring women it’s a big fucking deal.
