"if his heart was in the right place (as if i don't know what that means) he'll be ok. if not, he'll never be cold again" im so fucking angry. the arrogance and naivete to believe that you know what lies beyond, and that you deserve such light when judging people in such a manner 🙄🫥
The lesson of Patrick Stewart is to take the work seriously, even when it’s silly work, but never take yourself seriously. You can’t go wrong following that example

i have a number of mutuals who follow this guy; just a heads up, maybe you shouldn't anymore
