artistic license

Any choice made in the production of anything the artist calls art.
"So I took a bit of artistic license, okay? It's called "Queen Kong Lear", about an apewoman who feels unloved by her sons. If Shakespeare were alive today he'd totally love it."

3) You and your husband have seven kids. How did you manage with the distance learning? What was that like in the Barrett household?
4) What advice would you give little girls?

Charlatantrum

A temper tantrum thrown by an unqualified charlatan president, when questioned, opposed or exposed for his ignorance, pretense and lies.
"I say you're a terrible reporter!" the president fumed, when asked what he might say to reassure the American people. It was untethered to the real world, just another charlatantrum, meant to disguise his unfitness but only revealing it.
