this italian re/ylo fanbook from 5 yrs ago is one of my biggest purchase regrets because i always found the obviously traced photorealistic face comics SO funny but it’s also SO explicit that i can’t display or even donate it. i’ll literally have to shred it at some point

isaac got laid off at micr/osoft :( he’s got 16 weeks of severance but we lose our health insurance almost instantly. might have to leave chicago depending on if he can get remote work again. we stayed lucky for a long time but it always a risk

idk why improvisers are so embarrassed by that title when for me “comedian” or god forbid ACTOR feels soooooo much worse. anyway i just had to publicly print headshots at staples on my way to an audition

2 years of improv feels like absolutely nothing, except last night i did a 3 hr workshop w/ actual newbies and it was like omg…today’s ur second day alive….i’m about to rock ur fucking world just by starting a scene where our characters already know each other

20somethings get FREAKED when they find out ur in ur 30’s. 27yo oomf told me that we probably get along so well bcuz ppl stop aging/growing(?) at different times in their life, so mentally we’re actually very close!(???) obviously i was this weird about aging, too, but don’t SAY IT TO PPL’S FACES

i begrudgingly accept all hanya yanagihara criticism as valid exCEPT ppl who genuinely believe she’s secretly HP fanfic. she obviously just loves Donna Tartt, and all hp fic writerd happen to be 2nd wave dark academia. at WORST she saw the 2013 Daniel Radcliffe movie Kill Your Darlings while writing

isaac: wanna see something awful? magic’s weird secret lair cash grab is doing a set of that guy from the office me: thank god it’s never anything i actually like because i feel like that could actually work on me. like what if it was frasier. hold on what’s tha

the one other person in my imprv practice group who’s not a cishet dude keeps signing us up for queer/femme comedy nights without giving anyone a heads up and no one seems to understand why we are bombing at events w/ titles like “Bitch Manor”
