He seems to have reconciled himself with some of the Dwight Love.

She’s similar to Julia Roberts, in that she’s in a lot of pedestrian “be pretty and motivational for the male lead” stuff (even in things where she’s ostensibly the actual lead, which goes to show how bad writing is for women), or in minor prestige roles which are arty versions of the former, and she’s fine. But then

Anyone remember his short arc on Six Feet Under a few years before The Office (although he looked/acted about 10 years younger). Brief, touching quasi-romance with Ruth in the morgue.

Wolf of Wall Street. I, Tanya. Babylon.  I wish I had liked her performance more in OUATIH, but she was so underutilized that I felt like she really wasn’t a character so much as an idea or a symbol, and her casting was less about anything she brought as an actor, and more about her embodying a part.  It felt like a

It’s never enough until your heart stops beating
The deeper you get, the sweeter the pain
Don’t give up the game until your heart stops beating

“She is good at playing one type: brassy, tough toiking Joysey types.”

Yes. When I said “mostly” that was the one exception that came to mind. I’ll admit it was good and she’s good in it—just not enough (for me, personally) for all of the hype that surrounds everything that she does. That I *still* don’t get.

Its not his lack of acting ability or appeal, its because when you play a role so well (and especially for so long) there is always the danger of audiences not being able to see you as anything but “Dwight” or “Shooter McGavin”.

“Never enough has helped us as a species.”

I hope this is the thing that sends Musk leaping from the rooftop of Twit’s SF downtown HQ. We’d commemorate the splat where he hit Market street by painting the LGBT flag inside of the chalk lines, and flip it the finger, every year when we parade down it to the Castro. 

I hated my movie office because I wanted a star job.

It is truly a bizarre set of events that has occurred that makes Mark Zuckerberg the more likable of two alternatives.  He’s weird and off-putting, sure, but he’s not “the world’s most divorced man”, “the world’s tenderest billionaire”, or “someone who spends all day chasing clout from the alt-right teens.”

See, I’m the opposite:  I hated my movie job because I thought I should be an office star. 

Huh.

While I understand where you’re coming from, I would argue that 1) people would mock Kevin Sorbo for not being in anything some people would want to watch, and 2) ehhh, it’s a social media post. Most things people say on social media are half-thought out at best. I would argue that there should be a way higher standard

“The Supreme Court rules that Jeff totally did hook up with a girl in Canada, and that she’s his girlfriend now, but that no one can ask any questions or look into it. You just have to take Jeff’s word for it and be cool, and you can’t roll your eyes or make jack-off motions when Jeff says ‘my totally real girlfriend

It is mind boggling that the SC took up a hypo case, something that should never, ever happen. There was no standing here. It was a what if? It was purely politically motivated to even take the case, just to satisfy the conservative courts benefactors.
