I worked @ a coupon company and the CEO moved his desk right behind me and would count the number of times he saw me on Facebook and send the tally to my boss. My boss explained that I designed the coupon code ads and had to confirm they worked on FB but he didn't stop.
I had an abortion when I was 14 because the kid I had sex told me he was putting a condom on and didn't. And I can't even say how old that baby would be right now because I still want to get a job in Hollywood.

Well in fairness this one started the company and his first order of business was to hire a bunch of hot women (not my dept). He didn't scrutinize anything they did tho.
Okay so far my favorite replies have been "you treated being pregnant like a toy and got bored with it bc you love Hollywood, you should dedicate your life to finding that baby's soul" and "clearly you're asking how to do math, let me explain it to you."
If you're upset you guys could give more roles to Native people, or consider us for roles that maybe don't have anything to do with being Native, or develop stories by Native writers, or films by Native directors... then maybe it wouldn't feel like this was our only shot?

This reminds me of a temp job I had where another temp told me to "go grab a free bagel" so I grabbed one off a table full of bagels, which turned out to be some sort of weekly thing folks paid into. This chick Lorraine went to my boss and said that I was STEALING FROM PPL @ WORK

I love the replies that are like "actually I called the cops about a tent outside of my apartment building so not all of us are rich actually"

. This season is a lot of fun, and I think you’ll all enjoy it. Also I’m in Episode 4 if anyone cares.
I can't stop wondering which LA person hit P-22? Self-absorbed rich kid influencer? TikTok Comedian? Impatient Burbank resident? Grip? Loud Australian tourist? Drunk Dodger fan? I need to know.

I lived in Ireland as a teenager and my ex bf's cousin is called Cob because "one time he was eating corn on the cob and he really liked it."
Barry is a comedy. The premise is a joke. The jokes are satirical, but they are jokes all the same. The cast are some of the strongest comedy character actors in the world.
The fact that shows written over Zoom are winning awards is evidence that we don't need to hurry back to in person writers rooms when gas is $5.50/gal. Not every person in the room makes 6 figures.
It’s insane that 1 guy tried to make a bomb in his shoe and now everyone still has to take their shoes off at the airport 20 years later yet children are murdered at school at least once a year and nothing’s been done.
As someone who’s worked support staff on 6 seasons of tv I’ll say the thing that’s really hurting me is mini rooms + short seasons = no room for advancement in my career. And no I don’t blame anyone in the WGA for that.
People make fun of men for writing bad female characters but I will open Final Draft and start with “he was 6 foot three and lost his voice but could still use his mouth.”
My first writers room job was as the PA on a show called Rutherford Falls that is out today on

I’ve officially been sober for 15 years. I’m proof that your life can be a revolving door of disappointment and heartbreak and you don’t have to drink or do pills, you can just gamble and have sex.
Well since this blew up I'm obliged to tell everyone that I am a TELEVISION COMEDY WRITER who is READY TO BE STAFFED, has WRITING SAMPLES, is UNREPPED so 100% of the proceeds of my salary will go towards recovering from the dual strikes/current industry situation.
Now feels like a good moment to mention I have a pilot about female poker players that brought me to the finals of a network writing fellowship this year.
During the strike I got into Muay Thai and paid my rent with poker winnings if anyone wants a writer whose algorithm assumes they have low-T and a gun.
@feraljokes
I had a roommate who’s bf was having his daughter sleep on our couch for his visitation and when we asked him to start paying part of the utilities she called the police.
If anybody is looking for a staff writer I'm a Native woman who grew up in the NYC punk scene, 16 years sober, moved to Ireland as a teen, hobbies include muay thai and poker. So if your show has anything to do with any of that hit me up.
I really admire the Native women writers who used their

✨Story time!✨ I moved to LA January 2017 to pursue a career in comedy. I’ve wanted to work in film/tv my whole life. Before I moved an art director took me on some commercial jobs & I immediately started getting nonunion art dept/set dresser/props jobs here in LA. 1/
