@_APIpit that is so sad to hear

With deep regret, we're announcing that APIPit will be on hiatus from 2024 onwards. Because Twitter has grown far from ideal for pitch events with the bots stealing pitches and messy algorithm, we have decided it is best to pause APIPit until we've found a better alternative.

What If Everyone Had A Wheelchair Like Me? So I make a magic wish. There’d be no stairs. Giant bathrooms for all & whirly-twirly ramps! Enormous carousels to hold all our chairs & the best Halloween costumes around! But then everyone would also be the same. #PBPitch #DIS #OWN

@RyanRaeHarbuck Sounds sweet

FROGGY MONSTERTRUCK was a gift to a little boy who cherishes him. Yet he still feels like he doesn’t belong. He runs away to find the truth— Is he a frog or is he a monster truck? But maybe he’ll just learn in the end he is loved and that’s all that matters. #PBPitch
