to #artists everywhere. The meaning of #trust is: accept the input of your allies. The meaning of #ally is: if you don’t accept what the artist aims to achieve, excuse yourself and be silent. Stop destroying artists by poisoning them with your disbelief. namaste

My early crushes. Loretta Long from Sesame Street. Sonia Manzano, also from Sesame Street. Buffy Sainte-Marie, from Sesame Street. Lily Tomlin. Sesame Street.

I’m gay for Claudia Karvan

This. This is why when people say who do you want in the story room I keep saying @ninaoyama

Hey so look. @GermaineGreer1 said it, “we become the watchers on the walls”. Not all of us bear children. Not all of us become the quiet citizens. Some of us are the watchers on the walls. The sentinels who stay awake so the tribe can sleep in peace.

When people ask me what generation I am, my answer is: @katebornstein is my mother and @Sethrogen is my dad. I’m THAT generation

Here’s my #Passover2020 #Easter2020 thought. If you jumped back in time, to ANY point in the last 4 billion years, somewhere there would be the beings whose DNA would finally produce you. At any time, your family would be there. Maybe in a colour or shape you weren’t expecting.

If you ever meet someone famous, the BEST thing to say is: I used to LOVE YOU!

The two most inspiring conversations of my life. 1) Right before the show, the director kissed me and said “Just be funny and gorgeous” 2) a long distance phone call with the very old playwright whose work I was doing. “Do any damn thing you have to, but keep the heart in it.”

I cannot even with this. Please during lockdown can we all read some #intersectionaltheory work. Some #FeministTheory work. Some #TransTheory some #NativeTitle work. Some #FirstNations theory. Let’s emerge from lockdown with bigger hearts. ❤️

Is anyone else watching all these ads for easter chocolate and thinking someone in the marketing department of Cadbury and Ferrero has missed something important in world events?

I might be fired for saying this. The structure of all competition reality shows is this: Old people who don’t matter, trying to feel powerful by eliminating younger more talented people.

This doesn’t have to be a thing, but I’m watching #TheBionicWoman and I’m not kidding in the first 15 minutes the leading actress has been forced to kiss like 6 guys. I’m here for #LindsayWagner - enough with the patriarchy let’s cut to the superhero scenes.

Just innocently dropping this here. I think that television creates the impression that age-diverse relationships are much more common than they are. Make of this what you will.

Hello world, there’s a song that we’re singing...

I love this man. If I were a woman I’d marry him. Or if he were a woman. Or if we were both men because that’s fine now. ... I’m marrying @pocockdavid

30 years in show business. I started young. Anyway try this for yourself. You’re in a big scene and you want to raise the stakes... come into the scene wearing gloves. Then, during the scene, take the gloves off. TRUST ME. The audience thinks ‘Ooooh. Gloves.’ Yes #acting

My tweets are random.#RaisingDion on #Netflix is about ions. It’s about the space between space, the dance of electrons and the love of parents for children. It’s about being black. It’s about the power of being different. Understand how these things are the same thing. And watch

Anyone who doubts the power of children to influence the world... when our mother was pregnant, my sisters and I demanded that our new baby sister be called #WonderWoman . We have a sister called Diana Wonder Woman. Diana Prince. No kidding.

Everyone attacking #GretaThurnberg - just remind yourself: if I can’t account for my policies to a ‘mentally ill’ schoolgirl... I SHOULD QUIT PUBLIC LIFE #howdareyou
