When I want to relax, I read an essay by Engels. When I want something more serious, I read Corto Maltese.

Kingo died today. Or yesterday maybe, I don’t know. I got a review from the critics: “Kingo deceased. Funeral tomorrow. Faithfully yours.” That doesn’t mean anything. Maybe it was yesterday.

I love Kumail Nanjiani, I feel like him getting cast as Kingo is simultaneously the best and worst thing that's ever happened to his career.

I really thought that The Big Sick was going to be a breakthrough for him moving into writing. And honestly I feel like all the roles he's gotten since that movie he probably would have gotten anyways. It's hard to feel like he got cast in Stuber or Dolittle because the casting director was so impressed with The Big Sick.

I feel like on a personal level he'd probably think his best role was getting to be on The X-Files.

It really makes all of this bittersweet

The Kingo jokes are funny because of the sheer fact of what is going on but there's always the sad clown aspect of 'oh but I liked that actor'

I understand people are coy about accusations they make because of a pervasive system built to support badly behaved men, but also this is frustrating as gently caress. Kumail Nanjiani treated her "unprofessionally," and I believe her. But what does that mean? How is he worse to work with than Thomas Middleditch, who's been accused of literal sexual misconduct? The flippant "don't @ me lol" energy behind the claim makes it hard for anyone to engage with it.

Maybe Kumail was treating women specifically badly, in a sexual harassment sense. Or he was kind of a diva in a general "difficult to work with" sense. Or he was really unhappy on a set where he was routinely tokenized and was surly as hell because of it.
