I can't find the clip but Jason Mantzoukas was going through the various ethnicities he's played & whoever he was talking to (maybe Seth Meyers?) goes "Greek?" & there's a pause & Mantzoukas laughs "Nope! Never Greek!"

Depends, when you say “Babar,” is it the vein of Duke Phillips saying “BABAR! KING OF THE ELEPHANTS!”

I was reading an interview w/ him a little while back & he’s basically done w/ the band; it sounded like more of a process of moving on than anything else, he can’t disassociate the band/music from that point in his life (I’ll see if I can’t find it later).

One of the larger obstacles when it comes to art is a significant number of people truly have a hard (impossible?) time internalize the concept of "this is not for me," whether it's personal, cultural, etc, whatever.

I don’t get the feeling Lanterns knows what Manhunters are; not in a “misunderstanding of the source material” way but a “no grounding in the show’s own narrative logic” kind of way, they just exist as an astray point of conflict.

In practice, AI literacy doesn’t start with building the tool for your personal use. It starts with understanding yourself as a collection of tasks who should subcontract those out to a machine. Almost no regular person’s life currently exists as such.

I also think that we don't realize how much they consider people beneath them as NPCs & how little they're actually challenged in their day to day life (like understanding that they believe this but it's hard to conceptualize just how far they take it).

Think about how long it has been since you first saw headlines about Harvey Weinstein’s violence. Nine years after #MeToo went viral, his case(s) are still working their way through the criminal justice system. This is (one of a long list of reasons) why survivors don’t report.

A large part of this is bc we classify "what we know" in terms of tangible things, rarely is this adage used to mean writing ab any kind of emotion (especially complex emotion), so when someone hears "write what you know," it doesn't encompasses things like grief or joy or anxiety, etc.

It actually happened: watching New Girl & get asked “who is that?” & immediately respond w/ “Dylan McDermott…wait…fuck…[several bumbling attempts to recover]…Dermot Mulroney!”

Right now, Virginia’s constitution does not explicitly mention abortion. If Virginians vote yes on this referendum, the right to reproductive freedom would be constitutionally protected.

The reproductive freedom question on your ballot explained

Virginia voters will decide whether to change what the state constitution says about reproductive health, including birth control, prenatal care, abortion and miscarriage management.

It takes the concept of “show, don’t tell” in the worst, most literal way that undercuts the entire point adage in the first place.

Watching Supergirl tonight & I’d truly appreciate if screenplays just did away w/ extended flashbacks for a long period of time (if not forever). It devastates the pacing & also cuts the emotional core at the knees bc it never allows the character to experience it in the moment.

Re: Brubaker, Ellis, etc. Good work is good work. I don't feel duped for having bought and enjoyed good stories. HOWEVER, good work is not unique. And let it be known that producing good work does not allow for bad behavior. It is also not a shield that will prevent someone from kicking your ass.

Love a direct, to the point queen. Say it plainly and leave no space for bad-faith bullshit.

Asked why the WNBA continues to experience these heightened distractions, Cloud said, "Men."
"The men now that are like 'Oh, we need to protect the WNBA,’ y'all were the same ones saying we shouldn't be paid," Cloud continued. "Y'all were the same ones saying we shouldn't have been invested in, saying we're a joke, the same ones that don't respect Black women. So, if you're going to protect women, that means all women. That includes Black women, trans women and the list goes on."
