@Pulpbomb @GennHutchison I've heard a similar story about Julianna Margulies on The Good Wife. Good actors make hood writing better.

@GennHutchison I read a possibly apocryphal story that while working on Sherlock, Martin Freeman pointed to some dialogue in the script & said “I can do that with a look.“ So he did. I wish I could find where I read that.

@meysq No, they deserve to know the truth.

@bestiedaisy Sometimes, it can be awkward at first, but I have a lot of longstanding, dear friends I met on or because of the internet. Don't forget that internet people may have become internet people because they felt awkward in person, it gets easier, keep at it!

I'm sorry, what!? That is beyond the pale.

@gwenckatz I think about this sometimes and how many other times did something similar happen and they didn't write it down? Just, oh, there goes Jesus again, miracle-ing a punishment for something that annoys him.

Using his cosmic powers in a moment of weakness to exact petty revenge for not getting something he irrationally wanted is the most relatable thing Jesus ever did.

@ephant ... this makes me think I need to try some new medication, but I'm so tired of trying things that aren't really working.

last week: I could do all those things I planned... but I accidentally opened AO3 and downloaded 2 pages of fics as EPUBs and now it's seven hours later. this week: wow, I'm really looking forward to finishing this fic once I've followed all of my actual plans for the day!

a cool thing that has happened since my latest medication adjustment is that the whole 'just wanting to sit in bed and read fanfiction all day long' thing hasn't changed but suddenly I have the ability to... not do that.

@inherentsubtext @Chef_EZToon The original pitch was Wagon Train in space, so... yeah, pretty much.

@Chef_EZToon that IS his energy and i love this simile. aren't all Star Treks, in essence, just wacky road trips

in the 80s and 90s they kept trying to shoehorn Scott Bakula into manly man male lead roles just because he was built like a cartoon action hero and he is so extremely miscast in all of them because he has the vibes of a man who apologizes to furniture after bumping into it

Great thread (article behind a paywall) on what a difference streaming does. I love how television lets you live with the characters. They become your friends and you see them every week. I don't think of streaming characters as friends, more like a long-distance relationship.

Looing that spotify recommended this album for me, of course I want to listen to @RozenDJ and @Revensings new album. open.spotify.com/album/0ziKeowc…

@JohnDiLillo The classic, 'well it doesn't bother me, so you're making up the problem.' 😤🤬😡

.@adamconover on the unique power of strikes is some of my favorite messaging and I've been doing labor messaging for almost 20 years. #WGAStrong

@RickyRoxburgh @jonrog1 You think she picks up her own Mendocino Farms order? We gotta get to put fliers in with the food, and that'll at least get it into the office.

This is one of the best, clearest explanations of at least the major TV writer issues of mini-rooms, room size, and the importance of se di g writers to set! #WritersStrike #wga

Have we heard from @JortsTheCat about the #WritersStrike?

An interesting dive into the last writer's strike filled with things that I vaguely remember and lot's more context and details on how it all went down.

@thepursuinglife @HeyMPT I have like 6 answers to the "What was your first concert?" question for this exact reason. Ever? Without my parents? That I paid for? I never seem to pick the right variable when asked.

@kyliesparks Yes! Loop, Calm, musicians earplugs, I have a different brand, but they are fantastic!
