Well this came across the front page. I hope you get more to converse with than just me. What's your favorite form of entertainment?
Ooh, I like comicbooks, movies and standup comedy robin Williams is my idol ๐
Robin Williams was amazing. He always lightened the mood. I never thought of him as insecure until I saw him on Whose Line is it Anyway. He was so good and didn't know it. Have you seen the SNL guy Marcello Hernandez' special on Netflix? It was really good, he has a great delivery.
I haven't I'll check it out. He inspired me to become an actor. I wanna be like him ๐. I might have seen clips of the special though
You're an actor? Well that's cool, what kind of acting have you done or plan to do?
I'm in the acting program at my college. I wanna be a voice actor. I'm kinna modeling my career off actors like Williams, Carrey and VA like Alan Tudyk
So, that sounds like a blast. Are you taking improv classes too? Both Williams and Carrey are amazing at improv.
Not yet. I'm gonna go to second. City which was attended by Martin Short and John Candy
I'm familiar, I'm glad you're going with one of the best. Are you in Canada then? I'm more familiar with the Chicago one. I took classes in Chicago as kind of way to get better at public speaking. It was very therapeutic.
I'm going to the Toronto one ya. Not till I graduate tho. I wanna try and learn improv and standup
I don't know anything about the stand up stuff. But for improv, I wasn't that great at it, but it was so much fun. I hope you follow through with it.
I would but I'm about to go to bed after finally getting the kids down. Good luck, friendo.
i see you got responders already, just wanted to say, great job reaching out. that's hard sometimes , especially when in a low point.
How's Thursday going? Classes alright? Have you ever seen Worlds Greatest Dad? It's not really a comedy and if feels like only the darkest parts of Patch Adams but it's a good watch. I still think about the speech he gives to the student body near the end.
My Thursday is ok. I've decided to be proactive about paying attention to various social cues so that I can make it instinctual. Classes are over for the week so that's nice. I have wanted to see WGD for a while. My friend wants to get high and watch Thunderbolts Saturday so ya there's that lol
Those are two very different vibes. Thunderbolts was a good watch, though. I enjoy the not-so-super heroes. Hooray long weekend!
How ya doing today? Any better?
A bit worse actually but thanks for asking. I had a good cry so that helped a little
Crying is good when crying is needed. I'm going to keep checking in for a while.
I don't know what your experience but here's mine: When I start spiralling and bouncing from being unable to handle the ig thing but there's too many small things and I can't evennhandle.a small things because I should be dealing with the big thing but it's too big and I dont know where to start and and and... I type in a notes files on my phone. It's a gratitude journal. It sounds stupid and it feels stupid while I'm doing it. I'll be sitting on the toilet - because that's where I can be alone and peaceful for a few minutes - trying to think of some stupid positive things in my.life so I can write it in my stupid notes file that I am determined to do. It's a very small thing but it gets me out of the spiral for a few minutes and it gets me to search for anything positive. It's not much and it won't fix much but it is a nice break from the breakdown.
I'll see ya tomorrow.
Thank you so much. I'll try that
