The position β€œAmerican shuls are presumed valid targets unless they proactively disavow Israel” is as wrong as β€œAmerican Muslims need to proactively disavow Islamist violence to be considered good, loyal Americans.” Both are racist, and both are wrong.

The terminally online running the social media site is largely the reason Twitter is the way it is now. I support a Bluesky CEO who touches grass.

It was going on one, two in the morning, and we were shooting what I felt was an important scene for me, when he makes an attempt to be quote-unquote straight, in a suit, and at the end of it he gets emotional and locks himself in the other room. And I felt like, I’m not getting what I wantβ€”I’m not happy with it. Mike was happy with it. He called me the next day and said, β€œI know you weren’t happy with the scene last night. Believe me, we wouldn’t have gone home if I had felt we weren’t getting it.” And then he sort of became my psychiatrist and said, β€œYou find it difficult to be happy, don’t you? You find it difficult to enjoy things.” And I said, β€œWell, sometimes. Last night was about feeling too tired and not feeling I was reaching what I needed to reach for the scene.” He talked to me then about when he was making, I don’t know whether it was Virginia Woolf or The Graduate. He said, β€œI didn’t enjoy it for a second. I was worried about so many things.” And then he said, β€œYou know, this is never going to happen again quite this way. You should try to allow yourself to enjoy this more. Take a minute a day, and then add a minute the next day, and another minute. Pretty soon, you’ll have hours of happiness.”

The Birdcage opened thirty years ago today, so in its honor, I want to share one of my favorite stories about Mike Nichols that didn't make it into my biography. This is from an interview I did with Nathan Lane.

Won a prize from a Godzilla crane game for the first time pretty much ever today. Little bits of joy are sometimes shaped like kaiju.

Happy for PokΓ©mon fans but I'm living in Kingdom Hearts headcanon hell again. I just think Namine should be a magician who can buff Xion and Kairi in battle.
