I haven’t been super active on here, but is there a group on here of LA Tesla owners who usually have to charge at a supercharger, but are looking for other options? Every dollar we keep from the company is a plus.

There’s something very funny about the “Red Panda” bit in Running Point. It highlights the contrast between the otherworldly athleticism and their salaries, and the niche talents on a budget performed at halftime. And they do it without making fun of the niche performer, which is important.

I don’t like to put people I’m connected to on blast, but this is too ridiculous.
Can anyone spot why, for this guy in particular, this is absurd?
The cognitive dissonance is incredible.

First visit to Legoland this weekend w/ the kiddos & some friends.Surprisingly light crowds, lots to do, & surprisingly light on the price gouging that takes place at most theme parks.I actually saved money buying one lego set vs buying at Target.So…if the kids decide they want to go back, it’s on.

First audition of the year in. It was for a short film, which I usually don’t count in my total, but it offers actual pay and was being cast by a CD I met a long time ago, so I’ll add it to my official total.

On rewatch number whatever of Ted Lasso, and I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned how happy I am that Juno Temple found her way to this show and landed Keeley. So much heart and charm.

I’m going to go off topic a bit- anyone out there have a favorite LA Shakespeare coach or class? Or is there a NY Intensive I could do next summer? Looking for ideas. #Acting #Shakespeare
