When we were making Parks and Recreation we shot scenes with the Colts. We were told we had maybe an hour with the players. Then Andrew Luck showed up, and he was an absolute delight. Warm, funny, generous. He threw TD passes to anyone who wanted one, just to make us happy. 1/
He talked to everyone, and smiled, and showed Pratt how to properly grip the ball. He effortlessly dropped a 50-yard floater into Reggie Wayne’s hands in the back of the end zone as Pratt tried to cover him and it ruled. He (and his teammates) were so joyous and lovely. 2/
He made fifty fans that day. If the game isn’t bringing that guy joy anymore, it’s the game’s fault, not his. I love that he has the courage and integrity to walk away from this insane sport, and wish him nothing but health and happiness from whatever he does next. 3/3

8x Silicon Valley COO here with 20+ years of experience. The media is missing what Elon's doing & why it's genius. A quick 🧵
When you buy a company the 1st thing you want to do is wildly overpay (✔️). Then you fire 1/2 the staff at random, alienate those who stayed (✔️✔️), and then panic/flail (✔️). It should seem, to your employees and Wall St., that you made a huge mistake & regret it deeply. (✔️)
Projecting strong panic vibes is key in the first 7 days of the transition. As the old tech sector saying goes, "If you don't seem like a cruel and incompetent charlatan, you're not really a CEO!"

The average temperature on Mars is negative 80 degrees. Also there's no water. But I guess we should listen to you, since you invented the "tunnel."
The "let's go to Mars!" billionaire obsession is bananas. It's a giant carbon dioxide desert. There's no water. The atmosphere is thin. There's no food. Sometimes it briefly gets up to like 50 degrees at the equator and then drops to -100. It's a fucking wasteland! Help Earth!
These guys just want to be King of Mars. Actually. They want to go to Mars and write a Constitution for MarsLand that declares there is a King, and then they want to be made King. That's what this is -- a race between Bezos and Musk to see who will be King of Mars.

The official position of the Republican party is that the President can do whatever he wants in the last few weeks of his Presidency without punishment. Murder people, steal money from the treasury, sell U.S. secrets to foreign governments. Oh well! Not enough time to convict!
It's a process issue, you see. Was he guilty of the crimes? Sure. But they couldn't squeeze in the trial in time, so there's nothing they can do.
This isn't a joke. It's literally the basis for the "not guilty" crew. Their position is that if a future President gives Alaska to the Russians in exchange for a personal sum of one trillion dollars, that President couldn't be convicted, as long as he did it in, say, mid-January

A few days ago, WME (the last holdout) agreed to a franchise agreement with the WGA. This concluded the union's action regarding our agencies and their business practices. A thread on what this means:
From the beginning, our stance was simple and undeniable: you shouldn't own something (and thus want the cost of making it to be as low as possible) and also negotiate contracts for people to work on that thing.
That means you are not properly incentivized to maximize the contracts you're negotiating. Which, when you're an agent, is supposed to be *your only job.* That was the situation we faced -- an unexamined, 40 year-old problem.

So before they ban me, something I view as inevitable, wanted to share a super disturbing Ben Domenech story, from his house a few years ago.
I've never been to his house, but my friend went. He said he rang the bell, and Domenech answered the door, like, "Oh hey."
My friend said hi, and went inside. Within 30 seconds, my friend said Domenech excused himself to take a phone call. When he came back he apologized, and said, "Sorry. Had to take that."
