Just a casual reminder that @fleabag’s Phoebe Waller-Bridge has raised 40k for relief efforts from the #AustralianBushfires by auctioning off her #GoldenGIobes dress & then went on @ellen to ask people to donate.
If that wasn’t enough she raised another 25k & promptly matched it.

As the world gets a little bit darker it’s really heartening to see that “look for the helpers” quote bear out.
It’s tempting sometimes to give up & tune out & not care - & then you see people who have no reason to give a damn giving their voice, platform, time, hands, heart. 🤗

“What happened is that we don’t vote by gender. We vote by film and accomplishment.” - President, HFPA
This statement today by the head of the HFPA on the #GoldenGlobes and the lack of female nominees in the Best Director category makes me want to scream. Out loud.

This statement is the epitome of the biggest myth and misconception around diversity and inclusion: that diversity and inclusion is at the expense of merit and excellence.
Let me be clear: it is not.
Once more with feeling: It is not. #GoldenGlobes

Calling attention to the marginalization & exclusion of women in the #GoldenGIobes directing category (or racialized artists in acting categories at the #Oscars through @ReignOfApril’s #OscarsSoWhite campaign) is not asking for awards bodies to nominate unqualified candidates.
