Matt McGorry Instagram - I want this level of gratitude 🥹

Matt McGorry Instagram - Grateful to have spent time with this old chap in London last summer. 🥹 (although this picture is from a month before the pandemic hit the US)
Matt McGorry Instagram - My beautiful father transitioned the morning of 4/1/22 at 75 years old. 💔

Less than two months ago, he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer (one of the most deadly) and was told he had months to live. 

I am eternally grateful that I had a chance to say goodbye. That he wasn't in pain in the last few weeks, that he looked back on his life with deep gratitude & made peace with death. That I got to write him a letter 6 weeks before he passed, the ending of which is what follows.

"I hate seeing you in pain, and I know that we all do, and yet I still can’t believe the amount of joy that I’ve still felt in getting to support and be close to you this past week. Getting to watch you in your sleep, as I’m sure you did to me as a child, wishing and hoping for the best. And like the hopeful pragmatist that you are, not facing away from the challenges that you knew would be ahead, but loving passionately with your whole spirit anyway and trusting that love and openness would still always be the best way to move through life’s challenges. I so wish you didn’t have the pain that has been waking you up at night. And also, I have loved the late evening, early morning moments, of quiet intimacy where our love for one another is present through the pain. 

I don’t know what the rest of this journey will bring for you and for us or for how long it will last. I know, as you do, that there will likely be challenging moments ahead- that there will be pain and sorrow. But I am here for you with my love and support until you become a Beloved Ancestor. Even then, you will live as an always-remembered example me to me and the rest of the family and the people you have touched, as a Divine example of generosity of spirit, love and compassion. While this letter may be coming to an end, our relationship is not. I will think of you, I will speak to you, and I will love you forever and ever. I have never been more sure of anything in my life. Dad, there has been no greater joy, no greater gift, and no greater honor, than being your beloved son.

With all of the love in the ever-expanding Universe, 
Matt"

Matt McGorry Instagram - 37 years old today! Tested positive for COVID Sunday so a quarantining Bday for me! 🥲(Symptoms are very mild and taking Paxlovid as a safety precaution) 

If you’d like to leave me a “gift,” I love words of affirmation 😌 Tell me something you appreciate about me or a way that I’ve added value to your life. 🥰

I felt a little resistant to making that ask, but life is short, we gotta ask for what we want. 🤗

Also want to say ‘thank you’ to everyone who has offered words of support around my dad. It means the world to me. I try not to spend much time on social media because of…ya know, happiness…so even if I don’t respond please know the love is felt and appreciated. 💜

Also, I’ll be celebrating my birthday for as long as I damn well choose. While quarantining on a bday is not my first choice, I am accepting what is and opening to the joy that I can and will feel surrounding my birthday, today and for the next few weeks.

Once I’m out of this quarantine, watch out 😉
Matt McGorry Instagram - Fuck you, algorithm!!! How you like me now!!! 😂

Throwback to my at-home rehearsal for @lipsyncbattle 🤓

Matt McGorry Instagram - I am so heartbroken and furious by this and the constant atrocities of state violence against black life. 3 people killed by LAPD so far in January. 

Slides from @callmeshivy , 2nd slide & caption from from @osopepatrisse - 

“This is my cousin Keenan Anderson. He was killed by LAPD in Venice on January 3rd, 2023. My cousin was an educator and worked with high school aged children. He was an English teacher.
LAPD has killed three people this year.
One of them is my family member.
Keenan deserves to be alive right now, his child deserves to be raised by his father. Keenan we will fight for you and for all of our loved ones impacted by state violence.
love you.

Matt McGorry Instagram - "The Ethical Sl🫦t" by Janet W. Hardy & Dossie Easton 

Where my polyamorous/non-monogamous ethical sl🔥ts at?? 🤗🥹🤗🥹

I’ve been polyamorous for a few years now and have read quite a few books about it. But this was the first book that I read that really started me on the path. The funny thing is, I had it on my bookshelf for years as I identified as monogamous but for some reason I never read it. Perhaps I subconsciously knew that it would start to open some doors for me that would change my life, and that there would be no going back from. And that somehow, I just didn't feel ready. 

There is nothing wrong with monogamy itself. The same way there is nothing wrong with heterosexuality. But the problem is where the compulsory aspects of it lie. For example, I do believe that a lot more people would explore and step outside of monogamy (and heterosexuality for that matter) if it were not so heavily stigmatized to do so. While the social norms are shifting, there is still much work to be done transforming the systems and cultural beliefs that shame, pressure and coerce people into thinking that monogamy is the only real viable choice.

It's only been a couple of years since I realized that polyamory was for me and it took me most of that time to feel comfortable fully embracing it in a way where I would be okay with people knowing that about me, as a public figure.

For me, reading is an essential piece of how I learn about new things that I'm passionate about. And because we don't often see examples of how to have conversations about these issues, it can feel really challenging to know where to start. I believe that is the magic of books. For those who don't feel comfortable just jumping into shit 🙋🏻‍♂️, it gives us the opportunity to get some clarity about our desires and to build the capacity, skills, and tools that allow us to express those needs. 

May we all work towards the courage of giving space for and identifying our deepest desires and being able to put them into words.

Matt McGorry Instagram - Fuck you pay us! 🔥

Solidarity with the workers of the world! 👊🏼

It’s hard as hell to make a living being a full time actor. I’ve been on over 100 episodes of TV in the past 10 years and this year, I just lost my health insurance. And I’m one of the lucky ones in this industry. If *I’m* worried about being able to sustain being a full time actor (and I am!) long term, there are wayyy too many people in precarious economic circumstances while corporations are making more money than ever. 

Capitalism unabated will bleed every single one of us dry. But it doesn’t have to be like this. The history of unions is one that I never learned about in school in a meaningful way. And for a long time I was stuck in the myths of individualism thinking that simply working more and harder could protect me from exploitation. But solidarity through unions is exclusively how workers have won any single damn thing at all. We cannot fight these battles alone. We must stand strong in solidarity with all of the unions exerting their power over corporate greed and exploitation. Corporations are nothing without their workers and we are here to MAKE THEM REMEMBER THAT SHIT.
Matt McGorry Instagram - Friday was my birthday. 💜

These past five months have been the hardest of my life, by far. The horrors persist but so do I. 😈🥲😫

At some point I’ll share more about it publicly. In the meantime, I’m sending love to all of you as we navigate this incredibly difficult period of human history. May we all love ourselves and each other a little more fiercely, and especially in ways that disrupt state violence. ❤️‍🔥

Scientists have fulfilled a mummified ancient Egyptian’s wish to speak again after death by replicating his voice with artificial vocal cords 🤯

Nesyamun was a priest who lived during the reign of Pharaoh Ramses XI, between 1099 and 1069BC. As a priest in Thebes, Nesyamun would have needed a strong voice for his ritual duties, which involved singing.

When Nesyamun died, his voice fell silent, but 3,000 years on, a team of researchers have brought it back to life using a 3-D printed vocal tract.”
Matt McGorry Instagram - 1 year ago today, my dad passed away. 

I love you dad. I miss you every day. And while my heart will always feel like it’s missing a piece, I am so grateful that I got to be with you for as long as I did. 💜

Matt McGorry Instagram - I remember when I first started having really intentional conversations with partners about s3x and intimacy. It felt scary & challenging as I was worried about coming off as “too much,” insecure, or not “playing it cool.” But these conversations are essential, especially with new lovers, for everyone’s needs to get met and to build trust and safety.

Matt McGorry Instagram - I remember when I first started having really intentional conversations with partners about s3x and intimacy. It felt scary & challenging as I was worried about coming off as “too much,” insecure, or not “playing it cool.” But these conversations are essential, especially with new lovers, for everyone’s needs to get met and to build trust and safety.

My recent column in Teen Vogue about the surge and its impact on me as a high risk disabled person became a terrifying reality when I had a medical emergency that required a visit to the ER and brief hospitalization in the ICU.

Disabled, immunocompromised, and chronically ill people know fully well that the world is not designed for us and how we are often dehumanized and considered burdens by the medical industrial complex. It is an exhausting struggle to be seen and heard while fighting to survive in the face of systemic oppression.

While I was in the hospital I tweeted some of my experiences because I needed to document what was happening and do something while filled with fear. 

Writing and organizing is a way to channel my rage and process my medical trauma.

I call upon you all to help me push for a N95 mask mandate at UCSF Health.

No one should have to delay care or risk infection from COVID when receiving necessary medical care.

Matt McGorry Instagram - It's been a year since Archive 81 came out on Netflix. And ten months since it was cancelled. I so wish that I could have had another season to explore Mark and work with the incredible cast and creatives of Archive 81 on a season 2. 

I'm consciously trying to spend less time online these days, especially less time trying to condense complex and big thoughts and emotions into captions. I'm wanting to *live* the big questions and *embody* the emotions and feelings in real time, and I find that too often my desire to inhabit the online world gets in the way of this. So I release the self-pressure to name all the beautiful people who made this possible (and anxiety about forgetting to mention anyone) and hope that my presence and energy has and continues to convey my love and gratitude. 

To the fans...I am deeply grateful to those who found a place for this show in their life and in their hearts. Even if you had to watch it during the day with the lights on because you were scared. 😉 I deeply appreciate you. 

To those who didn't watch it...fuck you. It's your fault it got cancelled. You crushed my dreams. Just playing lol. 😜

Sending every one of you lots of love. 💕
Matt McGorry Instagram - One of the most powerful tools for this is telling the other person, “the story I’m telling myself is…”. 

It creates the room for them to add more context and doesn’t paint my interpretation as objective truth, which invites them to share their experience of the situation.

This creates more room for dialogue rather than feeling like accusations or blaming to the other person ala “you don’t care about me” or “you’re selfish.”

An alternative is, “the story I’m telling myself is that you did this thing on purpose because you don’t care about me. Can you help me understand what I may be missing or misinterpreting?”

And I learned “the story I’m making up…” framing from @brenebrown 🙏🏼💜🙏🏼

“According to the latest CDC COVID-19 wastewater data, we are currently in the second-biggest surge of the pandemic. 35 states have very high or high levels of COVID-19.

The surge will peak in the next week, with ~2 million infections per day. During this surge, ~100 million people total (~1 in 3 people in the US) will likely get COVID.

If you are sick, please stay home if you can. If you have to go into work, please wear an N95 mask to protect others. If you are an employer or political leader, please increase paid sick days.

And the reality is that because many people attended large unmasked events over the holidays, and we are in a big surge of COVID cases, now is one of the most important times of the year to wear a mask.

Wastewater data suggests there was a 50%+ chance you encountered someone with COVID if you attended an event with 20+ people over the holidays.

You can transmit COVID before you develop symptoms, so now is a good time to wear a mask to protect others, and also yourself (if you were lucky enough to avoid infection over the holidays).

Start the new year by staying safe and healthy by following the science and taking a few simple precautions like getting vaccinated, wearing a mask, testing, and staying home when you are sick!

“Every day, in prisons and jails across the United States, some 80,000 people are held in solitary confinement. A new documentary by @james.burns and @shallknow recreates the experiences of three individuals who spent a combined nine years in isolation, using first-person narration, live-action reënactment sequences, and stop-motion animation to explore the psychological trauma that survivors endure. The short film is not just about the cruelty experienced by its subjects but about the reality that this country creates “safe spaces for pain and punishment and torture to happen,” as one of the narrators puts it—“and we pay for it.” Watch it in full at the link in our bio.”

Matt McGorry Instagram - I made this video in the hopes of giving a clearer picture of life as a working actor who has been affected by the conditions that we are striking for.

Here are some “fun facts” from an actor who has been a main character in 120+ episodes of TV in the past 10 years. 

I...

- still do the unpaid labor of self-tapes for every audition (check out @auditionsarework )
- am not a multimillionaire and do not live in a million dollar home/mansion/gated community/luxury condo (or anything close to that). 
- lost my health insurance through the union last year (because you have to make $26k a year to qualify).

The majority of actors in the union are low-income, with the mean salary being $46,960 while over 80% make less than the yearly $26,000 needed to qualify for health insurance.

I live a privileged life compared to most people in the U.S. and compared to most actors, but even I have had to wonder about the sustainability of making a full-time living as an actor. The studios are making over $12 BILLION in profit annually, and we are owed a fair share of the work that WE have created. 

I love being an actor. But, like all workers, we deserve to be paid fairly and to have sustainable careers. I am on strike not just for myself, but in solidarity with those who do not have the privilege that I do. The background actors, the stand-ins, the guest stars, the stunt coordinators/performers, and everyone else who is a part of this union or who hopes to be one day. But also with workers who are a part of every other union (and those who have yet to unionize), that are demanding what they deserve from those that syphon our labor and who are ready to throw us away, bled dry, to maximize their profits. 

I offer this personal information, not to elicit pity. But for the young version of me that would have looked at my career from the outside and would have imagined a certain level of financial security in having “made it.” To break the spell of glamour and glitz that many actors feel the pressure to uphold for “our image.”

Fuck that, I’d rather be real with you. 

Workers of the world...may we rise up and take what is rightfully ours!!!

“Finally some good news. We need more states to do this and be proactive in creating sanctuary for trans and gender non-conforming people.

repost
@them Minnesota Governor Tim Walz just signed an executive order to make the state a refuge for trans people who flee their homes in order to seek lifesaving transition-related care. 

On Wednesday, Executive Order 23-03 was signed by the governor, which orders state agencies to protect people seeking gender-affirming healthcare in Minnesota, as well as the entities that provide it. State agencies are also specifically forbidden from providing information or assisting investigations to penalize trans people and their allies for seeking transition-related care. Judgments from other states that terminate parental rights because the parent provided their child with transition-related care will not be recognized by the state of Minnesota, and the state will also refuse to comply with subpoenas that seek information about trans people who travel to Minnesota to obtain care.
Additionally, the executive order tasks the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) with preparing a report that summarizes the literature on the safety and effectiveness of gender-affirming care, to be presented to the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and Legislature by the end of the year. The order also strengthens protections for insurance coverage of transition-related care and mandates MDH to refuse to approve HMO contracts that discriminate against people on the basis of sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. 

Noting that other states have “curtailed access to, or even criminalized” transition-related care, Walz’s executive order recognizes that “these actions pose a grave threat to the health of LGBTQIA+ individuals by preventing them from affirming their gender identities through safe and scientifically proven treatments.”

Matt McGorry - 98.3K Likes - My beautiful father transitioned the morning of 4/1/22 at 75 years old. 💔

Less than two months ago, he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer (one of the most deadly) and was told he had months to live. 

I am eternally grateful that I had a chance to say goodbye. That he wasn't in pain in the last few weeks, that he looked back on his life with deep gratitude & made peace with death. That I got to write him a letter 6 weeks before he passed, the ending of which is what follows.

"I hate seeing you in pain, and I know that we all do, and yet I still can’t believe the amount of joy that I’ve still felt in getting to support and be close to you this past week. Getting to watch you in your sleep, as I’m sure you did to me as a child, wishing and hoping for the best. And like the hopeful pragmatist that you are, not facing away from the challenges that you knew would be ahead, but loving passionately with your whole spirit anyway and trusting that love and openness would still always be the best way to move through life’s challenges. I so wish you didn’t have the pain that has been waking you up at night. And also, I have loved the late evening, early morning moments, of quiet intimacy where our love for one another is present through the pain. 

I don’t know what the rest of this journey will bring for you and for us or for how long it will last. I know, as you do, that there will likely be challenging moments ahead- that there will be pain and sorrow. But I am here for you with my love and support until you become a Beloved Ancestor. Even then, you will live as an always-remembered example me to me and the rest of the family and the people you have touched, as a Divine example of generosity of spirit, love and compassion. While this letter may be coming to an end, our relationship is not. I will think of you, I will speak to you, and I will love you forever and ever. I have never been more sure of anything in my life. Dad, there has been no greater joy, no greater gift, and no greater honor, than being your beloved son.

With all of the love in the ever-expanding Universe, 
Matt"

Getting to watch you in your sleep, as I’m sure you did to me as a child, wishing and hoping for the best. And like the hopeful pragmatist that you are, not facing away from the challenges that you knew would be ahead, but loving passionately with your whole spirit anyway and trusting that love and openness would still always be the best way to move through life’s challenges. I so wish you didn’t have the pain that has been waking you up at night. And also, I have loved the late evening, early morning moments, of quiet intimacy where our love for one another is present through the pain. I don’t know what the rest of this journey will bring for you and for us or for how long it will last. I know, as you do, that there will likely be challenging moments ahead- that there will be pain and sorrow. But I am here for you with my love and support until you become a Beloved Ancestor. Even then, you will live as an always-remembered example me to me and the rest of the family and the people you have touched, as a Divine example of generosity of spirit, love and compassion. While this letter may be coming to an end, our relationship is not. I will think of you, I will speak to you, and I will love you forever and ever. I have never been more sure of anything in my life. Dad, there has been no greater joy, no greater gift, and no greater honor, than being your beloved son. With all of the love in the ever-expanding Universe, Matt”

Getting to watch you in your sleep, as I’m sure you did to me as a child, wishing and hoping for the best. And like the hopeful pragmatist that you are, not facing away from the challenges that you knew would be ahead, but loving passionately with your whole spirit anyway and trusting that love and openness would still always be the best way to move through life’s challenges. I so wish you didn’t have the pain that has been waking you up at night. And also, I have loved the late evening, early morning moments, of quiet intimacy where our love for one another is present through the pain. 

I don’t know what the rest of this journey will bring for you and for us or for how long it will last. I know, as you do, that there will likely be challenging moments ahead- that there will be pain and sorrow. But I am here for you with my love and support until you become a Beloved Ancestor. Even then, you will live as an always-remembered example me to me and the rest of the family and the people you have touched, as a Divine example of generosity of spirit, love and compassion. While this letter may be coming to an end, our relationship is not. I will think of you, I will speak to you, and I will love you forever and ever. I have never been more sure of anything in my life. Dad, there has been no greater joy, no greater gift, and no greater honor, than being your beloved son.

With all of the love in the ever-expanding Universe, 
Matt"

Caption : My beautiful father transitioned the morning of 4/1/22 at 75 years old. 💔 Less than two months ago, he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer (one of the most deadly) and was told he had months to live. I am eternally grateful that I had a chance to say goodbye. That he wasn’t in pain in the last few weeks, that he looked back on his life with deep gratitude & made peace with death. That I got to write him a letter 6 weeks before he passed, the ending of which is what follows. “I hate seeing you in pain, and I know that we all do, and yet I still can’t believe the amount of joy that I’ve still felt in getting to support and be close to you this past week.

Matt McGorry - 84.3K Likes - 37 years old today! Tested positive for COVID Sunday so a quarantining Bday for me! 🥲(Symptoms are very mild and taking Paxlovid as a safety precaution) 

If you’d like to leave me a “gift,” I love words of affirmation 😌 Tell me something you appreciate about me or a way that I’ve added value to your life. 🥰

I felt a little resistant to making that ask, but life is short, we gotta ask for what we want. 🤗

Also want to say ‘thank you’ to everyone who has offered words of support around my dad. It means the world to me. I try not to spend much time on social media because of…ya know, happiness…so even if I don’t respond please know the love is felt and appreciated. 💜

Also, I’ll be celebrating my birthday for as long as I damn well choose. While quarantining on a bday is not my first choice, I am accepting what is and opening to the joy that I can and will feel surrounding my birthday, today and for the next few weeks.

Once I’m out of this quarantine, watch out 😉

“This is my cousin Keenan Anderson. He was killed by LAPD in Venice on January 3rd, 2023. My cousin was an educator and worked with high school aged children. He was an English teacher.
LAPD has killed three people this year.
One of them is my family member.
Keenan deserves to be alive right now, his child deserves to be raised by his father. Keenan we will fight for you and for all of our loved ones impacted by state violence.

Matt McGorry - 25.9K Likes - "The Ethical Sl🫦t" by Janet W. Hardy & Dossie Easton 

Where my polyamorous/non-monogamous ethical sl🔥ts at?? 🤗🥹🤗🥹

I’ve been polyamorous for a few years now and have read quite a few books about it. But this was the first book that I read that really started me on the path. The funny thing is, I had it on my bookshelf for years as I identified as monogamous but for some reason I never read it. Perhaps I subconsciously knew that it would start to open some doors for me that would change my life, and that there would be no going back from. And that somehow, I just didn't feel ready. 

There is nothing wrong with monogamy itself. The same way there is nothing wrong with heterosexuality. But the problem is where the compulsory aspects of it lie. For example, I do believe that a lot more people would explore and step outside of monogamy (and heterosexuality for that matter) if it were not so heavily stigmatized to do so. While the social norms are shifting, there is still much work to be done transforming the systems and cultural beliefs that shame, pressure and coerce people into thinking that monogamy is the only real viable choice.

It's only been a couple of years since I realized that polyamory was for me and it took me most of that time to feel comfortable fully embracing it in a way where I would be okay with people knowing that about me, as a public figure.

For me, reading is an essential piece of how I learn about new things that I'm passionate about. And because we don't often see examples of how to have conversations about these issues, it can feel really challenging to know where to start. I believe that is the magic of books. For those who don't feel comfortable just jumping into shit 🙋🏻‍♂️, it gives us the opportunity to get some clarity about our desires and to build the capacity, skills, and tools that allow us to express those needs. 

May we all work towards the courage of giving space for and identifying our deepest desires and being able to put them into words.

Hardy & Dossie Easton Where my polyamorous/non-monogamous ethical sl🔥ts at?? 🤗🥹🤗🥹 I’ve been polyamorous for a few years now and have read quite a few books about it. But this was the first book that I read that really started me on the path. The funny thing is, I had it on my bookshelf for years as I identified as monogamous but for some reason I never read it. Perhaps I subconsciously knew that it would start to open some doors for me that would change my life, and that there would be no going back from. And that somehow, I just didn’t feel ready. There is nothing wrong with monogamy itself. The same way there is nothing wrong with heterosexuality. But the problem is where the compulsory aspects of it lie. For example, I do believe that a lot more people would explore and step outside of monogamy (and heterosexuality for that matter) if it were not so heavily stigmatized to do so. While the social norms are shifting, there is still much work to be done transforming the systems and cultural beliefs that shame, pressure and coerce people into thinking that monogamy is the only real viable choice. It’s only been a couple of years since I realized that polyamory was for me and it took me most of that time to feel comfortable fully embracing it in a way where I would be okay with people knowing that about me, as a public figure. For me, reading is an essential piece of how I learn about new things that I’m passionate about. And because we don’t often see examples of how to have conversations about these issues, it can feel really challenging to know where to start. I believe that is the magic of books. For those who don’t feel comfortable just jumping into shit 🙋🏻‍♂️, it gives us the opportunity to get some clarity about our desires and to build the capacity, skills, and tools that allow us to express those needs. May we all work towards the courage of giving space for and identifying our deepest desires and being able to put them into words. My Booklist: bit.ly/mcgreads (link in bio) #McGReads

Caption : “The Ethical Sl🫦t” by Janet W. Hardy & Dossie Easton Where my polyamorous/non-monogamous ethical sl🔥ts at?? 🤗🥹🤗🥹 I’ve been polyamorous for a few years now and have read quite a few books about it. But this was the first book that I read that really started me on the path. The funny thing is, I had it on my bookshelf for years as I identified as monogamous but for some reason I never read it. Perhaps I subconsciously knew that it would start to open some doors for me that would change my life, and that there would be no going back from. And that somehow, I just didn’t feel ready. There is nothing wrong with monogamy itself. The same way there is nothing wrong with heterosexuality. But the problem is where the compulsory aspects of it lie. For example, I do believe that a lot more people would explore and step outside of monogamy (and heterosexuality for that matter) if it were not so heavily stigmatized to do so. While the social norms are shifting, there is still much work to be done transforming the systems and cultural beliefs that shame, pressure and coerce people into thinking that monogamy is the only real viable choice. It’s only been a couple of years since I realized that polyamory was for me and it took me most of that time to feel comfortable fully embracing it in a way where I would be okay with people knowing that about me, as a public figure. For me, reading is an essential piece of how I learn about new things that I’m passionate about. And because we don’t often see examples of how to have conversations about these issues, it can feel really challenging to know where to start. I believe that is the magic of books. For those who don’t feel comfortable just jumping into shit 🙋🏻‍♂️, it gives us the opportunity to get some clarity about our desires and to build the capacity, skills, and tools that allow us to express those needs. May we all work towards the courage of giving space for and identifying our deepest desires and being able to put them into words. My Booklist: bit.ly/mcgreads (link in bio) #McGReads

Solidarity with the workers of the world! 👊🏼

It’s hard as hell to make a living being a full time actor. I’ve been on over 100 episodes of TV in the past 10 years and this year, I just lost my health insurance. And I’m one of the lucky ones in this industry. If *I’m* worried about being able to sustain being a full time actor (and I am!) long term, there are wayyy too many people in precarious economic circumstances while corporations are making more money than ever. 

Capitalism unabated will bleed every single one of us dry. But it doesn’t have to be like this. The history of unions is one that I never learned about in school in a meaningful way. And for a long time I was stuck in the myths of individualism thinking that simply working more and harder could protect me from exploitation. But solidarity through unions is exclusively how workers have won any single damn thing at all. We cannot fight these battles alone. We must stand strong in solidarity with all of the unions exerting their power over corporate greed and exploitation. Corporations are nothing without their workers and we are here to MAKE THEM REMEMBER THAT SHIT.

Matt McGorry - 22.7K Likes - Friday was my birthday. 💜

These past five months have been the hardest of my life, by far. The horrors persist but so do I. 😈🥲😫

At some point I’ll share more about it publicly. In the meantime, I’m sending love to all of you as we navigate this incredibly difficult period of human history. May we all love ourselves and each other a little more fiercely, and especially in ways that disrupt state violence. ❤️‍🔥

Scientists have fulfilled a mummified ancient Egyptian’s wish to speak again after death by replicating his voice with artificial vocal cords 🤯

Nesyamun was a priest who lived during the reign of Pharaoh Ramses XI, between 1099 and 1069BC. As a priest in Thebes, Nesyamun would have needed a strong voice for his ritual duties, which involved singing.

When Nesyamun died, his voice fell silent, but 3,000 years on, a team of researchers have brought it back to life using a 3-D printed vocal tract.”

Matt McGorry - 21K Likes - I remember when I first started having really intentional conversations with partners about s3x and intimacy. It felt scary & challenging as I was worried about coming off as “too much,” insecure, or not “playing it cool.” But these conversations are essential, especially with new lovers, for everyone’s needs to get met and to build trust and safety.

Caption : I remember when I first started having really intentional conversations with partners about s3x and intimacy. It felt scary & challenging as I was worried about coming off as “too much,” insecure, or not “playing it cool.” But these conversations are essential, especially with new lovers, for everyone’s needs to get met and to build trust and safety.

Matt McGorry - 18.4K Likes - This is infuriating and unacceptable and why N95 masks need to be mandated in healthcare. High risk people should not have to risk death and having permanent, new health issues in trying to get the care they need. @ucsfhealth

My recent column in Teen Vogue about the surge and its impact on me as a high risk disabled person became a terrifying reality when I had a medical emergency that required a visit to the ER and brief hospitalization in the ICU.

Disabled, immunocompromised, and chronically ill people know fully well that the world is not designed for us and how we are often dehumanized and considered burdens by the medical industrial complex. It is an exhausting struggle to be seen and heard while fighting to survive in the face of systemic oppression.

While I was in the hospital I tweeted some of my experiences because I needed to document what was happening and do something while filled with fear. 

Writing and organizing is a way to channel my rage and process my medical trauma.

I call upon you all to help me push for a N95 mask mandate at UCSF Health.

No one should have to delay care or risk infection from COVID when receiving necessary medical care.

Image description: A picture of me, an Asian American disabled woman. There is a tracheostomy at my throat connected to a ventilator tube. A white gauze dressing is tucked around the tracheostomy. I am wearing a camouflage jacket. My eyes are swollen after crying uncontrollably for hours and barely able to open. I look miserable.”

Matt McGorry - 16.6K Likes - It's been a year since Archive 81 came out on Netflix. And ten months since it was cancelled. I so wish that I could have had another season to explore Mark and work with the incredible cast and creatives of Archive 81 on a season 2. 

I'm consciously trying to spend less time online these days, especially less time trying to condense complex and big thoughts and emotions into captions. I'm wanting to *live* the big questions and *embody* the emotions and feelings in real time, and I find that too often my desire to inhabit the online world gets in the way of this. So I release the self-pressure to name all the beautiful people who made this possible (and anxiety about forgetting to mention anyone) and hope that my presence and energy has and continues to convey my love and gratitude. 

To the fans...I am deeply grateful to those who found a place for this show in their life and in their hearts. Even if you had to watch it during the day with the lights on because you were scared. 😉 I deeply appreciate you. 

To those who didn't watch it...fuck you. It's your fault it got cancelled. You crushed my dreams. Just playing lol. 😜

Sending every one of you lots of love. 💕

Matt McGorry - 16.2K Likes - One of the most powerful tools for this is telling the other person, “the story I’m telling myself is…”. 

It creates the room for them to add more context and doesn’t paint my interpretation as objective truth, which invites them to share their experience of the situation.

This creates more room for dialogue rather than feeling like accusations or blaming to the other person ala “you don’t care about me” or “you’re selfish.”

An alternative is, “the story I’m telling myself is that you did this thing on purpose because you don’t care about me. Can you help me understand what I may be missing or misinterpreting?”

And I learned “the story I’m making up…” framing from @brenebrown 🙏🏼💜🙏🏼

In Atlanta police interests are trying to build a massive police training ground that threatens the environment and Black lives. 

Police have already killed one activist…Tortuguita…who was peacefully camped out to protect the Weelaunee forest that Cop City threatens to destroy. Many more lives will be stolen if Cop City prevails. 

The time is now to Stop Cop City, there’s only 5 days left! If you’re an Atlanta voter, sign the petition to bring the decision to the ballot. Find your nearest location on copcityvote.com. 

No matter where you are, spread the word to #StopCopCity!

“According to the latest CDC COVID-19 wastewater data, we are currently in the second-biggest surge of the pandemic. 35 states have very high or high levels of COVID-19.

The surge will peak in the next week, with ~2 million infections per day. During this surge, ~100 million people total (~1 in 3 people in the US) will likely get COVID.

If you are sick, please stay home if you can. If you have to go into work, please wear an N95 mask to protect others. If you are an employer or political leader, please increase paid sick days.

And the reality is that because many people attended large unmasked events over the holidays, and we are in a big surge of COVID cases, now is one of the most important times of the year to wear a mask.

Wastewater data suggests there was a 50%+ chance you encountered someone with COVID if you attended an event with 20+ people over the holidays.

You can transmit COVID before you develop symptoms, so now is a good time to wear a mask to protect others, and also yourself (if you were lucky enough to avoid infection over the holidays).

Start the new year by staying safe and healthy by following the science and taking a few simple precautions like getting vaccinated, wearing a mask, testing, and staying home when you are sick!

You can transmit COVID before you develop symptoms, so now is a good time to wear a mask to protect others, and also yourself (if you were lucky enough to avoid infection over the holidays). Start the new year by staying safe and healthy by following the science and taking a few simple precautions like getting vaccinated, wearing a mask, testing, and staying home when you are sick! #health #holidays #newyear #science #medicine #celebration “

“According to the latest CDC COVID-19 wastewater data, we are currently in the second-biggest surge of the pandemic. 35 states have very high or high levels of COVID-19.

The surge will peak in the next week, with ~2 million infections per day. During this surge, ~100 million people total (~1 in 3 people in the US) will likely get COVID.

If you are sick, please stay home if you can. If you have to go into work, please wear an N95 mask to protect others. If you are an employer or political leader, please increase paid sick days.

“Every day, in prisons and jails across the United States, some 80,000 people are held in solitary confinement. A new documentary by @james.burns and @shallknow recreates the experiences of three individuals who spent a combined nine years in isolation, using first-person narration, live-action reënactment sequences, and stop-motion animation to explore the psychological trauma that survivors endure. The short film is not just about the cruelty experienced by its subjects but about the reality that this country creates “safe spaces for pain and punishment and torture to happen,” as one of the narrators puts it—“and we pay for it.” Watch it in full at the link in our bio.”

Matt McGorry - 14.5K Likes - I made this video in the hopes of giving a clearer picture of life as a working actor who has been affected by the conditions that we are striking for.

Here are some “fun facts” from an actor who has been a main character in 120+ episodes of TV in the past 10 years. 

I...

- still do the unpaid labor of self-tapes for every audition (check out @auditionsarework )
- am not a multimillionaire and do not live in a million dollar home/mansion/gated community/luxury condo (or anything close to that). 
- lost my health insurance through the union last year (because you have to make $26k a year to qualify).

The majority of actors in the union are low-income, with the mean salary being $46,960 while over 80% make less than the yearly $26,000 needed to qualify for health insurance.

I live a privileged life compared to most people in the U.S. and compared to most actors, but even I have had to wonder about the sustainability of making a full-time living as an actor. The studios are making over $12 BILLION in profit annually, and we are owed a fair share of the work that WE have created. 

I love being an actor. But, like all workers, we deserve to be paid fairly and to have sustainable careers. I am on strike not just for myself, but in solidarity with those who do not have the privilege that I do. The background actors, the stand-ins, the guest stars, the stunt coordinators/performers, and everyone else who is a part of this union or who hopes to be one day. But also with workers who are a part of every other union (and those who have yet to unionize), that are demanding what they deserve from those that syphon our labor and who are ready to throw us away, bled dry, to maximize their profits. 

I offer this personal information, not to elicit pity. But for the young version of me that would have looked at my career from the outside and would have imagined a certain level of financial security in having “made it.” To break the spell of glamour and glitz that many actors feel the pressure to uphold for “our image.”

Fuck that, I’d rather be real with you. 

Workers of the world...may we rise up and take what is rightfully ours!!!

“Finally some good news. We need more states to do this and be proactive in creating sanctuary for trans and gender non-conforming people.

repost
@them Minnesota Governor Tim Walz just signed an executive order to make the state a refuge for trans people who flee their homes in order to seek lifesaving transition-related care. 

On Wednesday, Executive Order 23-03 was signed by the governor, which orders state agencies to protect people seeking gender-affirming healthcare in Minnesota, as well as the entities that provide it. State agencies are also specifically forbidden from providing information or assisting investigations to penalize trans people and their allies for seeking transition-related care. Judgments from other states that terminate parental rights because the parent provided their child with transition-related care will not be recognized by the state of Minnesota, and the state will also refuse to comply with subpoenas that seek information about trans people who travel to Minnesota to obtain care.
Additionally, the executive order tasks the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) with preparing a report that summarizes the literature on the safety and effectiveness of gender-affirming care, to be presented to the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and Legislature by the end of the year. The order also strengthens protections for insurance coverage of transition-related care and mandates MDH to refuse to approve HMO contracts that discriminate against people on the basis of sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. 

Noting that other states have “curtailed access to, or even criminalized” transition-related care, Walz’s executive order recognizes that “these actions pose a grave threat to the health of LGBTQIA+ individuals by preventing them from affirming their gender identities through safe and scientifically proven treatments.”
