Is this normal in your countries? A president that continues to lie even if he has been corrected a hundred times on these numbers. In Denmark, people dont like being told lies. Voters punish it. Why do Americans accept and vote for it? I dont get it.

@brothersgibson Happy birthday Leigh!

Happy Birthday, Leigh! I love you like a brother!

Ben Eldridge, the math genius that played banjo with a twinkle in his eye is gone from this world. Such a humble beautiful man. Big love to all who loved Ben.

I wrote about @marthagraham's new 'Rodeo,' re-orchestrated by @gabewitcher and redesigned by Oana Botez and Beowulf Boritt, coming to @NYCityCenter next week for @AllArtsTV allarts.org/2024/04/martha…

@bensurratt Some believe that amplification was invented to enable louder talking.

Live music axiom- the person who bangs on the bar at the end of the show and hollers for an encore is the person that talked loudly through that same show 🤦🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

My name is Kristin Song. On January 31, 2018, my son Ethan was shot in the head in his best friend's house. The father/gun owner stored 3 handguns and ammunition in a shoebox. Ethan's friend had been accessing the guns for over 6 months. At the hospital, the ER doctor slid down the wall, put his head in his hands, and whispered, "Your son is gone." At that instant, all I knew, loved and trusted was imploded into a million tiny pieces. I begged to say goodbye to my beautiful boy. I wanted to kiss his forehead, tell him how cherished he was, and tuck him in one last time. But the doctor begged me to remember Ethan as he was, you see, he was unrecognizable even to my eyes. The day before Thanksgiving in 2018, the prosecutor told me she would not charge the negligent gun owner, and if I wanted negligent gun owners to be held accountable, I would have to change the law. So I did. 6 months later, Connecticut passed Ethan's Law, which requires gun owners to secure their weapons if children can gain access. Then, I learned that so many states stood silent on this issue, so in 2019, I turned my attention to passing Ethan's Law nationally. I met with over 400 congressional offices, 130 of them Republican. In 2022, Ethan's Law was passed in the House of Representatives as part of the Safer Communities Act. Sadly, it was not picked up in the final package. When the Democrats lost the House of Representatives in 2023, I pivoted to passing safe gun storage laws in the States. As a result, Michigan, New Mexico, and Maryland passed safe storage laws. Currently, I am working with 5 states to pass Ethan's Law. I am emotionally and mentally exhausted, but I will not stop until there is a cultural shift in this country where it becomes second nature to secure your weapons around unsupervised children. If you believe in protecting children from gun violence, please follow and repost.

Thanks for this and everything else, @AlbertBrooks ! I would’ve already watched the doc but I’ve been very busy.

He sent me back a shitty print out from Finding Nemo with the requested signature. Needless to say, to have this joke exchange with one of my comedy heroes was a highlight in my life and it indeed hangs in my house next to the original album. 2/2

In honor of the new @AlbertBrooks doc, I thought I’d repost about the time I sent him a satirical fan letter requesting a specific autograph (mimicking the cover of A Star is Bought) written on his most recent 8x10 headshot. 1/2
