Damn, just… unmute and listen to this. Excellent. (Also one for my Catholics out here)
I've spent a lot of time thinking about this fascinating exchange Colbert had with Dua Lipa, when she asked him about the role his faith plays in his comedy.

This (as well as celebrating the life of MLK) is how I’d like to spend tomorrow.
The family of David Lynch invites us all around the world to come together at noon Monday for a worldwide group meditation for 10 minutes- I will definitely be there to help raise the vibration on an otherwise dark day. #davidlynch

Thanks to all for your kind remembrances on this awful day. Words will come later. Only feelings at the moment. Mourn and remember him but don’t forget to celebrate too. We won’t see his like again. The man from another place has gone home. #DavidLynch #TwinPeaks

One of the all time greats. The world is lesser without him. Gonna need a slice of pie and a damn fine cup of coffee 😢
Rest in Peace David Lynch. I saw FIRE WALK WITH ME 5 times in the theater. No movie is as funny, or as scary, to me. Sometimes in the same scene. In the same moment.

We've lost a true original, a true genius. The world is way more boring today.

The same dudes who fetishize the supposed lost strength and competence of their forefathers want computers to write their emails for them.

This is what I'm talking about.

They are currently winning this battle. The only chance we have to win the war is to remember that we are all in this together, and they are the baddies trying to destroy our communities and the bonds we share.

Fuck those guys. We are better than they are.
Look none of this is difficult.

The billionaires want us to hate each other. They're buying every newspaper and social media company to flood the space with bots and hate speech to keep us fractured and divided. And we could do that - and tear each other apart - or we could try to fix things.

This. The LA I know is geeky, creative people jamming into every corner in an apartment for a movie night, or crowding around a too-small table for an RPG session with a few more players than is wise. And I really love that LA.

We’ve been watching the Watch Duty team do absolutely *unbelievable* technical work all week (they’re members of our Fast Forward open source program), handling a surge of millions of people trying to see where the fires are in real time. There are still people who do such good on the internet.

Sending love to everyone in LA 💙 +Kudos to Watch Duty on their incredible work supporting those affected by the devastating LA fires.

Jon Chu not getting a director nom is criminal. There, I said it.

As a recent expat from "the bad place," it's nice to see conversations that haven't devolved into toxic sludge. Let's keep it that way, shall we? 😜

If you haven't seen the Star Trek short "765874 - Unification" yet, watch it in quiet.

ST has never done anything like this. They came back 1 last time & it's all about spirituality, not science.

Michael Giaccino did the music & it gets better with each viewing.
