Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Has been more muddled than the depiction of this character. I have heard different things from Wyatt from Kari and from Malcolm about where we’re supposed to land with this guy and above all else I think they really underestimated just how ugly and shocking it would be to see Steve’s shield used as a cudgel and blood dripping from it.

What's a movie quote that makes no sense out of context and barely makes sense in context but that you find yourself endlessly quoting anyway? Mine: Listen baby fish mouth is sweeping the nation!

I think Gaiman (one of my favorite authors) might be almost entirely unadaptable. Coraline is a solid exception. But I thought only the Aziraphale/Crowley parts of Good Omens (my favorite book) worked. American Gods was something I was really pulling for. What a mess. Sandman? I have very few hopes.

There is a bit of a thing right now on TikTok for calling famous men out for dating teen girls and I have never been more ready for anything. vm.tiktok.com/ZMeUqAoGr/

Did anyone else have to come up with nicknames for the copy paste Bridgerton brothers in order to tell them apart? No no definitely not me and definitely one of them wasn’t “high hair.”

I’m seeing WILDLY incorrect “news” reports based on out-of-context quotes from #TCA19 panels. Be wary of people writing up news who weren’t in the room and maybe be wary even of people who were in the room? I dunno. No shade but maybe stick to the outlets who brung you. Two inaccurate inferences-written-as-news I’ve seen just this morning.
A) His Dark Materials will be ONLY two seasons. That’s not what they said. They said they shot the first two seasons back to back.
B) Robert Redford will act in Watchmen. Listen he MAY! That would be fun....

As #GameOfThrones approaches I hope you’ll check out all my podcasts & VF work yadda yadda yadda. But I also want to shout out a few of my comrades in Thrones who are doing some truly incredible work and I know are feeling some of the same pressure & emotion around this ending. First of all shout out to the folks at @WesterosHistory (@MeereeneseKnot💚💚) who are your maesters. Second to NONE in their knowledge of the lore.
