what is it called ulysses syndrome but with added layer of being scared for having to move back to the country of birth and thus already griefing the life i imagined myself to have in the new country?

someone do explain to me how come the most British face that ever walked the Earth, Edward Holcroft, plays a Polish/Polish-heritage man on #Industry? Can't HBO do better? there are Polish, Eastern European and surely half-Polish actors out there. just as there are half-Polish writers.

back here cause twitter algo hates me. how my fellow immigrant artists manage to navigate the feeling of not wanting to move back to the birth country but also missing birth country? like i hate some aspects of Poland (the gov, mentality of elderly people etc.) but miss it incredibly (culture).

i have been saying this in the regards to the UK film and tv industry and the absolute lack of representation. it’s beginning to really upset me because it’s like 99% of writers in this country don’t think about immigrants who are everywhere. everyone in London has a different accent.

silly of me to have wanted to devote my life and career to the british film and tv industry. god forbid an immigrant wanted to be a part of global film industry machinery. lol.

Keir Starmer’s spokesperson asked for the PM's response to Nigel Farage’s plan to deport hundreds of thousands of people living and working completely legally in the UK, replies that he thinks it is “unworkable” and “unfunded”. So his objection is that they’ve got their sums wrong

We need to show more solidarity towards these charities and lawyers. We cannot push enough people under the bus, to make nazis shut up. What shuts them up is showing them that we are the majority that they don't recognize because of our superficial differences.

The new Renters Bill needs to ban landlords from requiring a guarantor. I'm (almost) a 30yo with over 10 years of renting experience, a grown-ass woman who can prove her salary... requiring a guarantor is a straight up discrimination on class and racism/xenophobic grounds.

a thought: minimum wage should allow people for basics like: a safe house (not sharing an HMO); healthy food; bills; some savings. the idea that minimum wage doesn’t allow for that + (in theory) the maximum no of hours one can work is 48? everyone has to work 2 jobs these days to keep afloat.

4 years ago I was presenting (online, awfully stuttering) my essay idea to Laura Mulvey and then she was a second marker on one of my essays at Birkbeck. and now I had the pleasure of making season artwork for the upcoming retrospective of her work at the British Film Institute this autumn! :)

i need an immigrant older than 30yo to tell me than it does get better. cause after 10 years of working my ass off and barely being able to afford rental of a small (damp) studio in Brighton with 0 prospects to ever afford mortgage is getting to me. mental health is at all time bad.

moving out to Brighton soon and turns out a mattress or a sofa bed are expensive purchases so i am once again offering someone to buy it because i don’t wear it enough. it deserves to be worn. it’s probably a good XL size, i’m normally an M and it’s too oversize on me. took me 2 months to make.

academic of bluesky, apropos of nothing anyone knows of any good research/book on immigration; diaspora and (lack of substantial) support network and its impact on mental health. there is a few research pieces on Asian international students but is there anything beyond that?

not a single Polish actor in Lena Dunham’s TOO MUCH imdb cast list. Polish being 1st most spoken foreign language in the UK xD People from India, Poland and Romania being the largest minorities in London. but they got Adèle Exarchopoulos because French accent >> Eastern European accent.

kind of just endlessly sad and grieving that there are so few voices in the public sphere making the basic principled argument that immigration is an affirmative good in every way and the best way for this country to serve humanity is to welcome people who want or need to leave their homes

Jafar Panahi has won the Golden Lion at Venice (THE CIRCLE), the Golden Bear at Berlin (TAXI), and now the Palme d'Or at Cannes (IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT). He is the fourth director to win top honors at all three festivals, after Clouzot, Antonioni, and Altman.
