    If you are ever like "should I tell this person that I liked the thing they did?" Yes. Yes yes yes. Doesn't matter if they're a nobody or a famous person, they will appreciate hearing from you. There are days when the kind words I get from strangers keep me going.

    I didn't like Isle of Dogs. I don't like seeing a culture & its ppl treated like props by a guy who "loves" Japan but won't look past its "exotic" aesthetics. Good intent can still cause painful impact. & no, having "real" Asians in the movie didn't help.

    I LOVE this!

    Is there such a thing as a 40 OVER 40 list? Or something that celebrates women who’ve put in some serious work, time, effort, practice into their craft? I’m tired of feeling inadequate or behind. Talk to me abt women still making moves after 40!
