Remember that feeling when you were a kid of really fanning out about stuff. Never let that go. It’s easy to become jaded. But stay a fan. It feels so good to be a fan of something in a world full of jealous Shondas. For example I am Jerry Lewis’ biggest fan. Literally no one likes him as much as I do. Also to elaborate I think it’s good to prolong idiots bliss. I try to stay as mentally primitive with my “creative processes” as much as possible because that’s when you are the most prolific and uninhibited in your work. I would do anything to avoid getting bent out of shape or feeling held back. I’d rather shoot a movie on tape with no money than try to get something made for 3 years. Just churn stuff out and move on to the next big idea. Also yearning. I’ve been yearning a lot.

been running my newsletter project for a few months now - it makes basically no money and takes up a ton of my time, and i’ve frequently considered dropping it due to the tight budgetary situation i’m in atm. i am always glad i choose not to, and the reason why is simple - it is a project that people like enough to tell me directly that they like it, and that gives me motivation to keep being creative in my life generally
big joel has this video where he says something along the lines of “it’s totally fine to make things because you think they will be popular, because you’re a human being and it’s natural to want to be recognized by other human beings.” of course you shouldn’t cater your entire worldview and personality for the whims of others, but it is perfectly fine (and frankly necessary for your mental health) to, from time to time, make a thing primarily because you think people will like it. it will give you the necessary confidence for you to pursue the moonshot when the time comes

hmm i think with everything being so fast paced and like easy to digest when u find something that just really resonates with u i think u should just let it wash over u like a wave. call it a hyperfixation or a phase but if u just really enjoy something (like an album or a movie) there needs to be some time to really savor it before going into the next thing.

My favorite pastime. Having an idol has been a huge part of my life from a very early age. Seems to me like a deeply engrained error of the personality. I still can't seem to find any logic or reason behind why I feel so deeply about famous strangers and others don't. If there are any bored documentarians out there I would love to study more about the fandom phenomena and turn this unfortunate spell into something more useful and productive.

I’m going to be the first director to leave the bloopers in the movie. Why not.I love seeing people have a good time. When I watch the “Friends” gag reel It sends me to the moon. It gets me caught between the moon and New York City!!! What I would give to have been a part of something like that. Or a part of anything. I hope to be a part of something, anything, one day.

I think everyone just needs to have more compassion and stop being so annoying online. Everyone treats politics like fashion trends. Just be a good person.

You’ll never regret it. The greatest souvenir you can have from being alive is video evidence.
