They tore down a parking garage in my hometown and I have been processing it in a way that makes me want to track down Bruce Springsteen and make him write a song about it.

Is there a way for me to message you? IG?

Anyone who has gotten an AI paragraph with search results on a topic they are even passably knowledgeable about will be horrified that the military is making life and death decisions based on AI’s beliefs.

There used to be a very long supercut of David Letterman's months-long "Oprah Log" saga but I think it might not be online anymore. If anyone has a copy of it or knows where to find it, please let me know...

Yes!

It hasn't been announced yet! But it will be in May!

And if you can get one reasonably priced comic from that Joe Matt box, it would be much appreciated!

Preference is toward any comic book that looks FUNNY

sending this GIF back in time to show my younger self proof of me acting on a New York City stage alongside a genuine professional but providing no additional context

I mean, I'm not picky. I will do any role they have. Gilded Age, do you hear me? I AM AVAIL 4 *ANY* ROLE U HAVE!!!

I think I could play Eadweard Muybridge and he could pop up in NYC and show off his zoopraxiscope picture-movies and everybody goes nuts for them like he's 1884's James Cameron

causality and correlation are not the same but they are sometimes undeniable

To be clear, as far as I understand it, the STARmeter doesn't measure like/dislike or approval/disapproval, so it isn't a reflection of anything other than a sudden lack of INTEREST. Like, people just suddenly LOST INTEREST. That is baffling to me.

a man in a top hat is standing next to another man ALT: a man in a top hat is standing next to another man

No no no totally different! These Gilded Age guys are totally 1880s New Yorkers! Different vibes entirely!

Still cannot explain the recent near-catastrophic drop in my IMDb STARmeter ranking. It absolutely plummeted, and then quickly more-or-less recovered. WHY? WHAT DID I DO WRONG, STARmeter???

As of right now, I am barely squeaking by staying in the top 20,000.

How about: I can play a Horse Trample Investigator, like the horse trampling version of Robert De Niro's character in Backdraft, but instead of having a deep understanding of FIRE, it's horse trampling.

"A trampling is a terrible thing. But you have to understand, to a horse, it is hilarious."

I can be one of the guys who DOESN'T know! Half those guys are like, "it'll never work, George Russell! I won't invest!"

"I found the horse that killed your lover. He wasn't the first. This horse killed many men before he ruined your life."

Ugh, I'm not right for this role. Why did I pitch this idea?

I know that TV shows have this kind of thing all figured out & don't need actors begging for roles 2 pitch "scene ideas" but also society is crumbling so maybe I'll just shoot my shot right here

Maybe I track down & bring that horse to justice - you know the one from last season? YOU KNOW WHICH ONE

Soft pitch: I show up w/a message for George Russell but he isn't home & I'm like, I'll wait & then Carrie Coon comes downstairs & she's all, "he won't be back for weeks, you should go" & I'm kind of annoying about it

But really I'll do any scene that's just the first thing that popped into my head

Every time I see bearded old guys on The Gilded Age sitting in a room and they have 3 lines about how they will or won't invest in the railroad I just can't believe I have never auditioned for this show

I can be a bearded guy on Gilded Age, I just know it

Don't Look Up but with dragons

The improviser brain I have is so focused on scene initiations -- the first things said and done in a scene, making them be there for a significant reason -- that for the white walkers to basically end up just being, what, the world's coolest subplot? Feels weird.

Anyway, I do believe that GRRM is struggling to write a new ending bc he told his true ending to the showrunners and then got to witness how widely unpopular it was and now he is stumped, and I think he should just go ahead and borrow the ending I just typed. Do it, George! Why not? Who cares?

I don't know that that ending would have made anyone any happier than they were with the actual ending, but to me it made the most sense, just bc THAT'S why the whole series-- scene one in book one -- begins with the white walkers. It felt like that was for a reason, to me.

I thought that the sneaky point of it all was going to be that all these characters had spent all their time fighting over who was going to sit on The Iron Throne, meanwhile, only a few ppl seemed to take any interest in the existential threat that was going to wipe them all out.

There was a point during Game Of Thrones where I thought the whole thing was a climate change parable -- it begins with the white walkers, deadly, unstoppable, disbelieved -- and then we watch all this pointless palace intrigue while they relentlessly, slowly march towards the end of humanity.
