No project is too uninteresting to be initiated.
No interest is too random to be pursued.
No task is too important to be left unfinished —due to the above random interesting uninteresting projects.
I work in film/tv, where I start and finish things.

- Reposted by zachnfineI'm so glad we can all revisit our opinions on the Biden age thing again. Perhaps we can even relitigate our favorite factional disputes from the 2020 primary while we're at it? Ah heck, let's go back to the old grudges about 2016, hold nothing back, it's not like our country's on fire or anything

- Reposted by zachnfineDear comms staffer who runs @schumer.senate.gov, here’s an easy template for not getting ratio’ed: 1. State the problem. 2. Say why it’s the administration’s fault. 3.

- I didn’t know about Ibeyi but absolutely felt the message described in this article when I saw Sinners last week. So many layers and influences in the film that I’ll definitely be seeing it again. Highly recommend catching it in full 1.43:1 IMAX if there’s one near you. www.imax.com/news/sinners...
