Those are the ones that always make me put my spidey senses up, like you're being a little too normal. It's the people that, and the quote-unquote weird, they never think that they're weird. Someone like Maria Bamford or John Waters said, They think they're the normal one. I'm actually reacting to this world in a, based on what the world is, this is a sane reaction to it. This is not weird at all.

I am all – This is gonna sound weird. I am all for restrictions. I don't understand everyone that's like, you should be able to say anything. It's like, guys, no. The restrictions are there for you to find clever, diabolical ways around it and then get to say it. If everything is allowed, then there's no danger or fun to it.

You know, and all this about cancel culture, who the fuck has been canceled? Now, everyone that they talk about has been canceled is filling arenas. The only people that have been canceled, the ones who've actually committed like sex crimes. They're not, but they haven't been shut down because of what they said. Those are fucking rapists.

I'm not making a good point here, but like have some of the, it drives me crazy when people say like, you couldn't make Blazing Saddles today. Okay, that is such an insult to Mel Brooks.

Even with that, those restrictions, those frustrations, a lot of people turn away from acting because they're like, I've got to sit there for eight fucking hours? Well, you can find a way to make that creative for yourself and find a way to bring something interesting to every single scene that you do.

I just love being around people who care about something.
