Pixar began in 1979 as the Graphics Group, part of the computer division of Lucasfilm before its spin-out as a corporation in 1986 with funding by Apple Inc. co-founder Steve Jobs, who became its majority shareholder. Before The Walt Disney Company bought Pixar in 2006 at a valuation of $7.4 billion, the company put together a marketing film in 1990 to promote their success. That year, Pixar gradually developed the “Pixar Braintrust,” the studio’s primary creative development process, in which all directors, writers, and lead storyboard artists at the studio look at each other’s projects on a regular basis and give each other very candid “notes” (the industry term for constructive criticism).

Saul Williams On His Parents Teaching Him About Music And Politics
How did your parents inform your understanding of politics and social change?
Saul Williams: When I was in the third grade, I thought I either wanted to be an actor or a lawyer when I grew up. My mom told me to do my next school report on Paul Robeson, and it was that; it was the fact that my parents threw around names like Paul Robeson, invited guests to the house like Odetta, and someone like Pete Seeger was a regular member of my dad’s church where he was a pastor. I grew up around these people who always aligned their artistry with protest and so I just thought it was normal. The connection between protest and art always made sense to me; it was always about these visionaries who gave their lives in service to humanity. The freshest artists were always that — Bob Marley, Nina Simone, Bob Dylan, Allen Ginsberg, Joni Mitchell — they all knew the world is bigger than just them. I couldn’t understand why anyone would waste their time singing about anything else when this is really where the iconic shit is.
Paul Stanley Answers The Most Embarrassing Rumour About Him, Wins The Weekend
During an interview with New Zealand’s The Breeze, Kiss’ Paul Stanley was asked about the craziest rumor he’s ever heard about himself:
“Well, the oddest, to me, was always — and it’s always persisted over time — is that I’m gay. And it’s an interesting thing, because if I were, I’d be proud to be whatever I am. As long as you’re a good person, sexual orientation and stuff like that is totally irrelevant.”
And if that doesn’t make him brilliant enough, he said this:
“I just kind of go, ‘Well, the boys may not understand, but the women always did.’ They got it in more ways than one.”
And that, my friends, is why Kiss rocks.

I’ve long advocated not talking to trolls or speaking to haters online, but if you’re ever going to do it, use humour for your comeback. Like this.
A Police Officer Spotted A Homeless Girl, And Then Did This.

Turns out, the mom and daughter were living out of their car. While one officer made housing arrangements with the mom, this officer put his childhood skills to the test.
