Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

"No two characters were alike. And once she’d dug into them, she was so committed that you you stopped thinking of what she was doing as a performance and started to feel as if you were just watching a person being themselves. A bizarre person, that is."

We can honor Catherine O'Hara through buying, renting, and streaming her filmography over the next few days, so that the revenue is more than the box office receipts for "Melania" on opening weeken--oh, excuse me...

Had the joy of seeing her sing "God Loves a Terrier" live with Eugene Levy a few years ago . A comedic genius. RIP.
One of the best actors of her generation. Easily one of the best comedians of all time. As much Catherine O’Hara as we got, it was nowhere near enough.

This isn’t about convicting Don Lemon. It’s unlikely that will happen. It’s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. It’s about eroding the free press because the administration can’t afford the criticism.
This just in: "Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards," Lemon's attorney Abbe Lowell says.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.
