In the press tour for the film Wicked, actor Cynthia Erivo was in tears at the idea that fans were ‘holding space’ for the song Defying Gravity. Journalist Gilchrist’ reflected the rise in popularity of the phrase “holding space”, a companion term to popular self-help concepts such as “emotional bandwidth” and “drawing boundaries”. But what does it actually mean?

He told The Guardian that “Shawshank” is one of the reasons he’s holding on to hope that the algorithm can somewhat be defeated given than most audiences rejected the prison drama when it opened in theaters in 1994....
