I just spent an hour reading one article about Stephen Colbert. I know so much about him now
I feel so inspired now
I was led here by an interview of him talking to Talking Heads, star-stricken with adoration for what his music meant to him and his friends in college
I want to spend my whole life learning about creative people and enjoying the creative things they do and appreciating the creative spaces they create
And I want to share it with others
During her touring company debut, Thorpe says, she and Colbert kicked things off with a “very, very odd, nonsensical” two-person scene. As she stood with him in the wings beforehand, more petrified than she’d ever been, Thorpe looked at Colbert and noticed an honest-to-god twinkle in his eye. He couldn’t wait to get out there. “It was like, ‘Come on! We’re just gonna go have fun!'” she says. “And it just melted all that [fear] away and reminded me that it’s really not brain surgery. We are just going to go out and play make-believe. It was the greatest gift I could have ever gotten in the moment, and I’ve never forgotten it.”

Feels very intentional that I keep diving into creative ppl's scapes and then find them giving thanks to God. Britney, Paris, Blaketheman1000, Stephen Colbert
That stop making sense was so wonderful that I was rejoicing to Jesus
i've been fascinating by how these celebrity memoirs keep mentioning God in some capacity, wondering what it implied about our culture, about spirituality in mainstream media, etc., but I hadn't given any thought to what it meant for me – that it might not be accidental that I keep noticing it.
