“Wait, HOW old now?”

“Oh, shit.”

“You know what, I’ll take it. It’s the youngest I’ll ever be again.”

As we strike, here are some great thoughts on what it means to live an actor’s life, from the wonderful Elizabeth Morton (whose path and my own have quite a bit of overlap). #actors #theater #strike #sagaftra

"I want you let it sink in that A24, the smaller company that makes and distributes low budget independent films, is able to adhere to SAG-AFTRA'S terms while the big studios making the top 10 grossing films of the year are acting like they can't afford it." - TheHorrorGuru

Happy Gahtdamb Pride, my loves. This too shall pass. #PrideMonth #HappyPride #LGBTQ #Gay #TransLivesMatter

Tipping is a toxic practice designed to perpetuate chronic underpayment and worker abuse and you will not convince me otherwise. Mandate living wages and minimum acceptable working conditions.
