"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the assessment that something else is more important than fear." The amount of courage it takes to do something can be measured by the amount of fear one must put aside in order to act.—Franklin D. Roosevelt

My new Merriam-Webster dictionary has convinced me to finally invest in a physical copy of the Chicago Manual of Style because I am tired of logging in to look things up when I could literally just grab a book

The dictionary is a good friend

True 👌🏼
Sometimes someone will get really mad at me because they think I got a fact wrong and then I look and they're mad that they have a different opinion from me.

I am here for a British actor doing a funky American accent in the same way American people flop at doing British accents. We're just going full circle

I'm not a tech bro or a journalist. Your priorities are not my priorities. Stop telling me I need to do anything other than chat about comics & telly with people who seem nice.

Overheard in the supermarket. Two teenagers.
1: 'Where's Dad?'
2 (with ineffable weariness): 'In the cheese aisle, having the time of his life.'

On a personal note.

I knew Rob Reiner & his lovely wife Michelle. One of my happiest memories was chatting with them in their kitchen, making sandwiches talking politics, and movies.

They were kind people. Extraordinarily normal and very, very kind.

I love & miss them already.
Life is short.

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.

All from his movies.

I interviewed Rob Reiner as one of the bonuses for the @criterion.bsky.social BluRay of SPINAL TAP. We talked for an hour about the movie and his career and then they shut off the cameras and we talked about movies for another hour. A delightful, unhurried genius.
