I'd like to think so, most of the time.

But one of the important lesson I learned is that you can't be too nice at work, you have to put your foot down sometimes, otherwise people would just walk all over you and nothing gets done.

I don't like it, but it is what it is.

Fellow lemmings, I, for one, would spend that 15 dollars on a copy of the "Barbie" movie on Blu-ray and digital, because nothing would make me happier.

just includes his signature foot shots

To be fair, those foot shots are ... as good as foot shots can be, at least.

Sigh.

At least he was nominated for an Oscar this year, unlike someone else who was also in "Barbie" :(

The Wrap article they are referencing: https://archive.is/UmNPh

On the set of “Red One,” Johnson’s pattern of lateness proved more damaging. Johnson was late an average of seven to eight hours per day and missed several entire days of production, ballooning costs by at least $50 million according to three insiders who insisted on anonymity for fear of being fired.

I can not imagine any other jobs in any industry where this behavior would be acceptable. At the end of the day, people want to get their work done and go home, and wasting the time and work of hundreds of people on set is regularly is unprofessional and irresponsible.

“On set, away from his trailer, if he needs to pee, he doesn’t go to the public bathroom,” one insider who knows the movie star well said. “He pees in a Voss water bottle and his team or a PA has to dispose of it.”

OK that's just gross.

I know right? I've been spending way too much time trying to get people here to watch "Barbie" (now available on Blu-ray and select streaming services) for like a year now.

It's a good movie, if you haven't seen it yet, go watch it.

Wouldn't drow Steve Irwin be legendary drow ranger Drizzt Do'urden (with his astral panther Guenhwyvar) before he went to the surface?

Esteemed ~~Australian~~ drow actress Margot Robbie, on the other hand...

Part of it is forcing yourself to read the books you haven't finished instead of browsing the internet during downtime. Doesn't always work, but it works sometimes.

Having a book club where you can talk about what you've read with your friends (and wine, a lot of wine) also helps.

The cheapest way to get groceries in the States has always been do all your grocery shopping in the same store, preferably a discount store like an Aldi, instead of cutting coupons and going to multiple different stores due to the simple fact that the gasoline used for driving around is most likely going to cancel out any saving from shopping around, an unfortunate side effect of America's car centric infrastructure.

You don't really need an AI to make this list, plus, I think there are apps that already trying to do exactly that.

However, getting a computer to draw yourself in ridiculous situations (usually with an equally ridiculous number of fingers) is great entertainment.

It's his major recent work in public eye, plus the MCU is huge in terms of pop culture, so I'm using this as an example of how he might currently be recognized in public as, not that it is what he is best known for.

(I don't want to talk about "Poor Things"... )

But then again, it is New York City, most pedestrian there are always in a rush to get to where they needed to be and wouldn't take a second glance at even the strangest happening as long as it isn't blocking their way.

Realistically, seeing someone in a setting you do not expect them to be in would make you less likely to recognize them, so it would be less "Hey, Williem Dafoe is in my jury" and more "Hey, that guy in my jury kind of looks like the actor from Spider-man".

Think of it this way, if Williem Dafoe shows up at say, a tech conference, and went around telling everyone "I'm esteemed Academy Award nominated character actor Williem Dafoe", most people there are going to think:"Why is there a Williem Dafoe impersonator at this conference?" instead of "Why is Williem Dafoe here?"

Hiding in plain sight.
