There is a blink-and-you-miss-it moment where one of the Mission Control nerds physically maneuvers a guy in a full dress uniform out of the way like he is pushing Gumby off a bridge and I would have been good at that too.

Here I am, next to Ed, supporting him, supporting the mission. I have no lines but I have a headset and also I save them all.

I would have been the BEST Mission Control extra. I can stand around looking concerned so hard you won’t even know what hit you. I don’t know how to fix this but I am SO GOOD at frowning & smoking at the same time. Ed Harris raises an eyebrow? I raise an eyebrow right back. We understand each other.

Me and Anne Frank rolling our eyes at each other in the afterlife when the missionaries keep showing up

I’m also gonna “as a Jew” here and say that Mormonism is, by and large, VERY weird about Jews and I for one give them a wide berth in case they start trying to baptize me!

You meet someone who was sent to “reparative therapy” as a kid and it kinda sets you against the whole institution, who can say why?

He should maybe consider that there are a TON of ex-mos out there and they are not exactly keeping quiet about what that was like for them.

The rainbow sleeves!!!
