Whatever you do, don't smoke an entire brisket at a job interview, it's a lot of equipment to bring in, it takes a really long time to do it right and those conference rooms have notoriously poor ventilation

I was neutral on ‘gif,’ and chafe at ‘on accident,’ but I will say I’m pro on the plural of ‘vampire’ being ‘draculas’

Okay, I’ll say this much, the dreadful corporate slurry that is the Supergirl movie did at least prompt me to read the comic Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, which, in wildest contrast, was incredibly beautiful, timeless, and moving. So thanks, I guess?

I think we need a new version of Network where Howard Beale mutters softly into his lav mic “I’m numb as hell, and I’m probably going take this till I’m dead.”

9/11 infected us with its perpetrators’ radicalization; us/them thinking is now the business model for all media, leading us unable to talk to each other constructively about almost anything at a time when we desperately need to be able to. Instead, we have become terrorists to one another.

I think that the Dark Forest solution to the Fermi paradox is highly unlikely, but it’s resulted in some excellent sci-fi, so I’m all for it. It’s no surprise however that this has grown in popularity in the social media age; we look for fantasies to justify our poor social choices all the time.

I have high hopes for Netflix’ Lonesome Dove, but no matter how it turns out, it’s an unqualified, universal good that it’s getting people to pick up the novel, which is high in the running for the best American fiction I’ve ever read.

This movie is an acquired taste, because even for satire, the spread between its goofiness and grim realism is gigantic, but once you tune into it, it really is the greatest critique of the legal system on film. Only something this dumb could be this tragic. link.tubi.tv/cG8xP0qOk6b

Einstein believed time exists simultaneously. Causal connections are simply a state; before and after are like east and west. Any point is the beginning: for instance, that you love someone can be seen as the ‘start’ from which the universe must explain itself via physics as you look to the ‘west.’

The ideal of being an artist, to me, is to be curious, empathic, and brave about how you face the world. I fail at this constantly, but it’s the standard I want to reach; so when I find myself fearful, judgmental, or reactive about anything, it’s time to take a breath and remember why I’m here.
