Did anyone catch Steve Way's comments on disabled love and Hollywood?

[OneMoreEpisode]

Steve Way from "Furious" just gave a pretty unfiltered interview where he talks about the struggles of navigating Hollywood. He even calls out Ari Emanuel, saying he wants an agency to "whore me out." Honestly, it's refreshing to hear someone speak so openly about these issues.

He also touches on the beauty of "disabled love," which is something we definitely need more of on screen.

Steve Way's comments are really striking and honestly long overdue. The industry has a way of sidelining disability narratives, so seeing someone like him speak out is both powerful and necessary. It's about time we see disabled love represented authentically on-screen. It can enrich storytelling in ways that resonate deeply with many viewers, not just those with disabilities.

Plus, calling out agents and the industry for their outdated practices shows that there's a need for more transparency and respect in how stories are told. Has anyone else noticed how often disability is portrayed only in a tragic light? I think it would be great to hear more stories that celebrate love, joy, and everyday life. What are some shows or movies you think have done a good job with this?
