He still cares abt Lamar (link)

.....

............ MA. R Q U I S E.

OKAY THIS . THIS IS CUTE. BUT I HATE THIS. BECAUSE IT IS CUTE. ARGGHH HOW DO I EXPLAIN THISSS.... okOKAY listen i am so. i am studying this like a researcher does a bug in a jar. A Petri dish growing mold. A banana. NO ONE IS SUFFERING MORE THAN ME CREATING MY OWN NARRATIVE IN MY HEAD ABOUT NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!

he still loves him of COURSE he still loves him, which is CUTE but. BRO HAS DONE SELF-SABOTAGE!!!!!! AND IS PUTTING /ALL/ THE PURPOSE ON THE ORGANIZATION !! it doesn't MATTER at this point who did what to who and why... what MATTERS is that self-sabotage has occurred, and hollywood still loves lamar. HOOWW can i EXPLAIN this MAN like!!!! HOLLYWOOD doesn't think he's good enough for Lamar, no, he KNOWS that. But he can't live with Lamar knowing that because he's afraid LAMAR will leave him when he's TRYING and can't even convince him to stay or not trade him at his best. HOWEVER, if he convinces THE ORGANIZATION to trade him 'JUST OUT OF THE BLUE', then that's UNDERSTANDABLE, that's a BUSINESS decision, then the ORGANIZATION is the villain! AND NO ONE WILL HAVE TO KNOW ANYTHING!! except HOLLYWOOD ! super easy choice, genius plan!!

... except maybe hollywood is less fine with knowing than he thought. Maybe the plan went too well. So well that the real problems went unsolved. Even if it was a bad plan, Lamar would still believe his every word anyways. He always does. He's always in Hollywood's corner. but no one's in Lamar's.

Moving, spending all that time away from Lamar, it didn't change a thing. He still thought of Lamar, Lamar still thought of him. Still thought of him too well. Hell, he didn't even worry when Hollywood spent almost all his off-season training with his old college QB. Because he has that much faith in His wide receiver. His wide receiver that averages 10+ dropped passes a season. His wide receiver that left him for that old college QB. Lamar blames the organization because HIS old wide receiver did, his FRIEND. And now Lamar's getting turned on because of his friend. . . So maybe the plan came with more problems than solutions. Lamar didn't hate him, at least.

But he should.

When the daughter of THE Martin Luther King Jr. tells you not to spread propaganda in his name, we think it’s best to just stop.

It’s time to cancel the Hollywood experiment that was Amy Schumer.

j saw the percy jackson announcement which is great and I'm excited as hell but let's take a moment to recognize that disney is still not meeting the demands of its writers and actors!! a huge company like disney where the ceo makes ~$20mil/yr should be able to pay writers and actors, without whom disney would not exist at the scale it does today, a livable wage.

edit: I wanted to add for clarification: currently neither wga nor sag aftra are asking us to boycott the shows. since this show was made before the strike, you can and should watch it legally bc as ppl in the notes have said it gets the actors and writers their much needed royalties.

For Leah, she should not have to deal with that. She should be allowed to practice her profession and her art, and to be recognized as a talented actor who got a part because she merited getting the part, without dealing with this speculation of it was only this or it was only that — “It was a quota, It was wokeness,” whatever, blah, blah, blah. That didn’t sit well with me. I am first and foremost always a teacher, and that was a teachable moment. That was a moment that I needed to say, “OK, hold on. Let’s examine this, and let’s examine what you’re saying and why you’re saying it.” Racism, I believe, is not something we have or don’t have. That’s the wrong conversation. I think we’re all prone to that. I mean, to believe anything else is to ignore the entirety of human civilization. Racism, colorism, it’s always been with us. So it’s not helpful for us to say, “Oh, I’m not racist.” Of course we are. What the question really is, is do we recognize it? And do we work on it? Or do we deny it? Those are the choices. That’s the conversation I was trying to frame —this is clearly not a valid thing to attack a young girl who worked very hard, and was cast out of hundreds of other young actresses that we looked at, because she was so good at embodying the soul, the personality of that character. She shouldn’t have to deal with that. And I want her to know that I stand behind her 100 percent. The entire team of the Percy Jackson series stands behind her unconditionally.

Okay but Hollywood has been OBSESSED with making Hades a completely evil mastermind for literally forever so seeing the Percy Jackson show make him a funky dude who comes strolling out in his dressing gown and clicky heels who offers snacks is really cool of them tbh
