    Today this Queer Afro-Puerto Rican boy from the Bronx, who decided in 1995 at 15yrs old that he wanted to become a filmmaker like his heroes Spike Lee & Steven Spielberg, became an nominated Director. I’m crying. 🥲

  2. I have friends who live in Buffalo. That’s a 2.5hr drive from where I lived/worked/attended college. I shopped at a Tops supermarket for the 13 yrs I lived in central NY. Can’t shake how broken-hearted I feel, and relieved it wasn’t me or someone I know and love. 💔

    Eight people dead. At a supermarket where people are just going about their day. Why is this country so broken?

    Fred Ward was one of those amazing actors who never got nominated for anything but always made every project better due to his charismatic presence. I loved this guy in the movies and will miss him a lot.

    Writing the outline to a new pilot & was about to quit for the day since it's 2:45pm and I've been writing since 8am... and then I saw this tweet. So I'm gonna keep writing my ass off, cause I want to put a writers room together. This show m̴u̴s̴t̴ will get made! ✍️🏾

    I was a freshman in college when 1st blazed on my TV screen & unapologetically owned her Blackness, while calling out white privilege & racism, and inadvertently inspired me to walk into every room at my predominantly white college and do the same damn thing. ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿

    Saddened to hear about the death of my fellow BX born Puerto Rican, George Perez. His penciling of The Infinity Gauntlet (and the Avengers: Heroes Reborn in 98) are some of my favorite in any Marvel book. Thank you, sir. Rest easy.

    THE WOMEN'S HOUSE OF DETENTION is a book about a prison - but it's about so much more. In particular, it's about the lives and thoughts of queer women and trans men subjected to the criminal legal system. And it goes places you wouldn't expect. Some questions it answers:

    “Research” for when Marvel calls and says, “of course we want you to help us bring mutants to the MCU.” 🤞🏽

    At this point, Congress is just an arms dealer. No education. No access to healthcare. No housing. No clean drinking water. But we’ll finance your war.
